    My own personal "Mumbo Jumbo" goes live.

    I mentioned in one of the two threads that I had a video interview coming up that was awash in my own mumbo jumbo. Well here it is. It just went live.

    Really? I am very critical of my efforts in these kinds of venues and all I can see are the flubs where I misspoke details a few times, repeated myself etc.
    Thanks,

    Nicely done, Kirk. Forget any flubs, it was honestly spoken and to the point. You should be pleased with the results, congratulations!

    Great interview. Really! I'm impressed by anyone who can be spontaneously articulate.
    My few interviews have been via emai ... no one would want to read the first drafts.
    You seem a kindred photographic spirit with Ed Ranney (whom I studied with years ago, but have been completely out of touch with).

    Wonderful interview, Kirk.

    The mumbo jumbo was really quite acceptable and you came across in a very genuine way.

    You seem to be a pretty "down to earth guy". Never expected that of a former moderator !

    Great video, thanks.

    Your "Mumbo Jumbo" is sincere and picturesque (as if painting with words).

    I feel fortunate in having Kirk just down the road from me (In SoCal time that and hour and 60 miles away) He is a great photographer and a good person to talk to. Over the last year or so we have had a chance to work together. We rarely talk about the tech side of photography, (unless I bring one of my strange cameras along). But more we talk about the thing that move us and make us think. The video is great by my standards and should be part of and advanced class in photography. I am proud to call him my friend. Now if I could just get him to take me to Chaco Canyon.

    Good job Kirk, I want to see more things like this.
