Hello dear Wen
"American Amateur Photographer" was the name of the club and the journal Stieglitz founded and edited to promote his new ideas about photography. Thus I think he wouldn't object being called one. What's most amazing about him is that his remarks and ideas are so witty and fresh even more after a century... or maybe more contemporary than ever.
Kindest regards, and thanks again for your comments

PS And thanks to pointing out my error about Steiglitz, it's all copastetic now
From Rick Doble:
Wen P -- I just came across your comments about my work -- it is very gratifying that you both like my work and understand it.
What I love about the Internet is that I can reach a community around the world, not just in one location or even one large world class city like New York. It is a virtual community of people scattered across the globe. Perhaps art and critical assessment can be now crafted from this perspective.
BTW although I am 62 I feel I am just getting started. Recently I have been unable to do as much work on my photos as I would like, because I have been too busy earning a living. But that just means I have lots of latent images that will burst out when I have time.
Send me an email, so we can correspond, if you would like

Hey Wen - Sorry I haven't been in touch more, but all hell is breaking loose here in Vancouver. I will be away in Asia for most of December, so I want to wish you a Merry Christimas and an Ass-Kicking New Year.
Luv,
Patrick
Hi Wen, It is nice to know that you liked my picture enough to vote it pro to the gallery. It just missed it ...just by a little hair ....of the tail of the dog....as Eddie says. EhEhEhEh.
