www.billatkinson.com/GenerateCatalog.pl?page=0&filter=_RocksHi all. For all the people who haven't seen these photos, they are well worth taking a look at. Bill Atkinson once worked for Apple Computer, took his money and got into photography. His photos are some of the best I've ever seen, not just the rock photos, but all of them. Check them out, you won't be sorry. Ed

we'd use em as art. But right now, we just can't afford $1200 for a print.

Hey Jack.
Don't consider any pics taken by you aor anyone else here as junk pics. Remember, this guy made millions in the computer industry and uses expensive cameras and setups to take his photos. Not all of the rocks he has photographed are his either. So go ahead and post away my friend, we all love to see each others pics.
