Gary Martin has served as Cruise Director of this Lighthouse Photography Forum since it's inception. Gary has asked to be relieved and so we say thanks and...

Welcome Jenifer Selwa who has accepted the responsbility.

Jenifer has been an active member and contributor to the Forums for some time now. Jen is a professional photographer doing weddings and portraits in Western Michigan.

Her real love (besides her husband and young daughter) is lighthouse photography.

Thanks Jen for taking on these resposibilities!

Don't be shy now everyone, let's see YOUR lighthouse pictures. We've even provided a space for you to put 'em on the internet:

A tip of the Captain's cap goes out to Gary for all the wonderful photos and interesting dialogue he provided to these forums. I do hope he will remain with us even though he is retiring from moderator duties.

A special welcome to Jennifer as our newest moderator at the CF! I'm looking forward to seeing more of her work displayed here at the CF. I think everybody loves to look at the different lighthouse pics that appear at this site.

Welcome aboard, Jen!

:rolleyes: John - The link you gave above for uploading lighthouse pictures doesn't seem to work. Maybe it's me?

Best,

To fix my original error...

Sorry guys. I had the wrong domain there. Fixed it in my original post and in Paul's above. Either should work now.

Thanks Gary for sharing your pictures with us...Jen I really like your pictures and look forward to seeing more. Congratulation on becoming a Cruise Director Jen :rolleyes:

Thanks Gary for your great pictures and welcome Jenifer! I am not really into photography and still have the Ashi Pentex 35mm SLR that I bought in Japan back in 1967 during my tour in Nam and a little 1.3 mega for quick shots . This doesn't allow me to post quality pictures but I certainly enjoy looking at this Forum and maybe one day will upgrade my digital camera after I retire.

Congratulations Jen! I've enjoyed your photos.

Gary, I still hope you will continue to share your photos with us.

I need to say,

Gary, HUGE THANKS for all you've done for this board.

You've generously shared your talent and abilities, tid-bits of very helpful information, and have always stepped forward to help, both the individual and the HL Forums.

Your leadership as moderator of the photography section has been exceptional. A big job of a moderator is to keep the section interesting and fresh.

You will be greatly missed in that role, but I personally hope that you will remain active here.

A big hand to you my friend!

Judy

I've become a "Saint"?! Wow, gee whiz!

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments. I am actually in Kentucky until next Friday visiting my sister so I won't be on too much the next few days. Will try to log in when time permits.

Sorry, Jen. Ruthie 'promoted' you one level too high at a time. You're a 'Cruise Director'. Sainthood comes later.

Thank you Gary for everything you have done on this board! I know there have been many a time that I have found it very helpful and informative.
Also, welcome to Jen! I can't wait to see more of your photos in the future.

Thanks Gary and welcome Jen. You both are very talented photographers and we are grateful that you both have shared them with us.

Hopefully you, Gary, will continue to contribute to the Photography Forum as time allows.

Thank you Gary for all you have done for this forum. Try to visit us yet when you can.

Welcome Jen we look forward to your great photos and hints to help us take better photos.

Mary and Jeff

Big THANKS to Gary for all the help he and others have been to me. Hope Gary sticks around to add his expertise! Welcome Jen, have been enjoying all your posts and great shots!!

Thanks, Gary, for all your amazing work with this forum. Your name will be missed sorely as a Cruise Director on these pages.

Welcome, Jen! It's nice to know that Gary's successor is going to be one who can carry on the great work he did here.

Gary,

I must also put in my two cents worth. You were always there when I had a question and I always enjoyed your pictures. My hope is that you will be signing in on occasion and keeping us posted of the fien work you do in photographing lighthouses.

Bert

Jen,

A big welcome to you as the new administrator (Cruise Director)of this part of the forums. Looks like you'll have your work cut out for you, but from what I've seen, I'm sure you can handle it. Looking forward to my picture of Point Cabril.

Bert

A big thanks to Gary for all his past efforts as Cruise Director of this wonderful Forum. We hope that you will continue to share your awesome photos with the rest of us photographers in training.

Congratulations to Jen on her new Cruise Director role. You have some big shoes to fill, but being a little familiar with your knowledge and capabilities as a photographer, I have no doubt you'll carry on very nicely.
