Thanks Ken for posting some of Mergs photographs. His work is exceptionally good. One of the things that really impresses me about his photography is looking at some of his early work, that is on his website, and how good it is. A real plus for us to see his photography and have his input on this forum.
I was fortunate enough to see an exhibition of Merg's photographs and they are brilliant, and even more so when seen up close and personal. Thanks for posting this!

Thanks for posting Ken; an interesting and inspiring selection!
Alan, John and Ron, thank you for the kind comments. Ken had choices of where to take this, however I am content with his observation of the "powerful balance between realism and abstraction, sensitivity and strength".
Perhaps buried in the message, is the importance of being true to one's vision.
Thank you, Ken
Really fantastic work Merg. I really enjoy seeing the new selection every week.
