Hello! My name is Jodie. I live in Minnesota where the temps can fluxuate by 20 degrees in one day. Most of my photos have been taken very close to my home, a 10 acre hobby farm., where I raise Alpacas and chickens. I am a band director, a musician/singer and a photographer/adviser on the yearbook committee. My camera of choice is a Nikon. I have a D90 and a D70. I also have a SB800 flash and favorite lens is Nikon 18-200mm AF-S, with VR. Revisiting the visual arts is something I should have done years ago. If I see something remarkable, I just try to capture it. Nobody else will ever see it quite that way again so I hope you try that, too. This is just like expensive therapy for us. Thank you for visiting and may you have a peaceful day!

Great work Jodie, your work has always inspired me. You have a gallery full of warmth and class and beauty. And I am sure your daughter must have been happy with the results you got of her in this photo, it shows all the qualities of your photography, and she is a beautiful girl. All, the best my friend.

It's a wonderful shot of Megan, Jodie—and Mickey!—and a great way to celebrate your 500th. Megan is smiling but wholly natural (something you capture so well from all your portraiture experience); and the b&w brings out her smile & her kind nature in a way that color couldn't top; and the music of the shot is simple & just plain fine portraiture (ie, the sweep from her hair to her arm & into Mickey). And Mickey is placed so nicely & naturally. A very simple but wholly sensitive job. And kudos to Megan to let you post this in front of the world. And kudos to Piet, too, for the beautiful thumbnail—I wanna see it full size!!! You have to know, you still do things with natural light & shadow, natural contrasts, natural blends & atmosphere that distinguish you as one of the subtlest & most sensitive camera artists here. And I've always found your composition to be unerring, your way with action shots to be unreal (I still can't believe some of those theater or sports shots where it looks as if heaven literally stopped time for you, the clarity was so fine), your sense of the 'scene'—ie. knowing which pov captures the essence of the place—to be equally unerring, and I've always found your light to be deep & heartful & beautiful. Those spills of light in the distance, what you do with mists & fogs, your sense of glow inside objects, doors, walls, etc, are just beautiful. I could go on...but this is a great gallery & I'm one of your biggest fans & I hope you post another 2 million. It's great that you posted a picture of one of your beloved children to celebrate this. Congratulations! This was one of my first galleries & it still remains one of my favorites. I wish you many, many more, dear friend!

It's hard to follow Mark, so I won't even try to be literate since it will fall short by comparison. Congratulations Jodie! A great choice for your celebratory post, it's a portrait for you (and her!) to be proud of.
