My name is Lilly Nile, I live in Atlanta - I am no relation to either Clyde Butcher or Rodney Lough Jr.

man, what a group of cynics!

Well, originally I replied twice to questions "Lilly" posed, giving her the benefit of the doubt. But given the number of responses suggesting that this whole thread is just a PR stunt for a photographer none of us ever heard of (and given that this is a pretty experienced group, including a lot of professionals, that says a lot!) I played detective with google and telephone directories. There are four "L Niles" listed for Georgia (where I always thought Atlanta was...): three Lawrences and one Leroy. So I have switched to the cynics, and wish the moderator would delete this whole advertising thread.

yeah that's conclusive - google and telephone directories

Well it is not the first time he/she has tried this. Take a look at the comments in this blog, scroll down to the bottom at Jan 31, 2008 by "Joe Smo" and see if you don't smell a certain hubris: http://www.lostateminor.com/2006/10/15/peter-lik/
Perhaps he finds it amusing, in an adolescent way.

Maybe if there is enough interest here, we could get Rodney Lough, Jr. and Micheal Fatali to do a workshop together.

By the way, do you pronounce his (Lough) name "Luff" or "Low"?

[David A. Goldfarb]

In the videos on his website, it is pronounced "Low."

So much ego massed in one location would cause a black hole to form.

yeah and it would be fun to participate in their workshops to see what I could learn

For all those harboring suspicions, the moderation team has the same suspicions. We've been checking and, while the evidence is all circumstantial, it does appear that Mr. Lough and Ms. Nile are not strangers.

Like the latest street fighting techniques....

[Brian Vuillemenot]

Having fake posts written to drum up support for his workshops? That's got to be a new lough for Rodney...
