Jerry W. Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 This is a link to an article about one of IFI's major contributors. As the article states, he was also a board member of Balcones Forge. He continues to promote the craft and help cultivate the abilities of us newcomers. Good work Hollis and Thanks. JerrySlideshows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Stegmeier Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Photojournalists seem to have a much easier time getting a interesting photo, than they do actually describing accurately what is going on in the picture... That was a great idea Hollis incorporating fireplace tools into that railing... ;-) You got to appreciate the exposure, but you got to hate the misrepresentation of the details about something you are so passionate about. But as they say, there is no such thing as "bad" publicity;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWooldridge Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Yes, I had no say in the text writing. He took a few notes and got the anvil and power hammer correct so I'm thankful for what got published correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Stegmeier Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 LOL ;-) Atleast he spelled your name right, most of the time they end up misspelling my name, that is if I even get acknowledged in the photos. One article I was in I think they misspelled my name three different ways, and then they didn't even wait to get a picture of the spiffy thing I was making. I suppose carrying a stack of business cards might help with that... ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 If I didn't know your name and where you were before, I certainly do now. Still, it's press and seeing as they didn't actually make any serious mistakes it's good press. Some pretty excellent pictures too.
