So way back in January of 2003... yes 2003 i submitted a photo portfolio to Laurence Kuykendall at BMW NA after being suggested in doing so from a couple other BMW NA big wigs at a big show i met... well long story short... somewhere after the portfolio was sent to the advertizing dept it went missing... no one could find it and i wrote it off as a major $$$ lose of archival prints...

now flash forward to first week of July 2007... i have been working so much this summer and not riding much... was out of town the month of July... get back about a week ago and start going through all the mail that piled up on the table while i was zapped off the planet...


There is this big envelope marked with BMW NA on the sender's area... i go WTF... then it hits me from the feel and the weight of the package... my wife goes.. "What are you all going crazy about" look in ther eyes as we sit at the table... and i explain... Yes the Laurence Kuykendall found my portfolio and was graceious enough to mail it back..


SO THANK YOU LAURENCE !!!!!:thumb :thumb :thumb :thumb :thumb :thumb :thumb :thumb :dance


Now it is time to up date the thing with the new top 20 in my motorcycling photo arsenal...

Good for you for getting your work back, Mike, but still, an organization that receives an artist's or vendor's book and looses it, for four years? That's no way to do business.

My book doesn't go anywhere I'm not. That's what the Internet is for.

This was before i could send files easier with high speed... i only have 26.4 K old copper phoneline servce at my place... they dont see the need for high speed in our valley for at least another yrs... i also am quite low tech still with photo...
