A round of applause for me for spending 16 hours working on a photo, manually masking/selecting thousands of little heads, only to discover that there was a version of the photo that had been originally taken in color.
I’m a genius, I know.
I didn't finish the photo. Probably never will. I actually want to set it on fire.
I'm blaming @dgjones just because I want to.

Every time my very first client reaches out to me, it's like I'm transported back to 2015 when I still had no idea what I was doing but he loved my work and supported me anyway. He has been doing it since.

Grateful is the word.
From the very beginning, one of the things I always had in mind was my responsibility and obligation to show the client that I am grateful for his trust. These photographs are precious to them, and they need to be to me as well, at least while I'm working on them.
And THESE are the people to whom I don't mind doing favors every once in a while, or even going beyond what I'm hired to do and support/promote them/their projects.
