The weekly Picture Postcard

Each week, usually on a Thursday, friends and supporters of Wowfactorpix receive a Picture Postcard by email. It's a collection of six web resolution photographs and some captions. The pictures are always eyecatching, and techniques are sometimes explained where they've played a significant role in the execution. Many have commented that it's a welcome arrival in their inbox: a minute or two to enjoy some interesting pictures - a gem amongst the spam!

It's free! You don't even have to feel obliged to reply - but if a picture moves you and you want to comment, feel free to do so.

I sincerely look forward to your email each and every time you press send and it reminds me to pursue my dreams and go after the things that i am passionate about. You and your work are an inspiration and i cannot tell you how many times it has reinforced to me that hard work, passion and risk taking can produce incredible results.

"Rob, thank you for the 'pictures' & dreams & memories - especially the Silverton Hotel. This is our bonus for working with Country Energy." Jenny, Queanbeyan
"Man, I gotta tell you - these are unbelievable images. That's it, I give up photography forever. :>) Tacking Point - Pre Dawn is brilliant. Counter Point is another favorite - something about the way the colors mix and the dynamic motion and imagery - unbelievably beautiful - raw power and beauty. I'd like to see about getting a print of this one - wow.

Yep, that's it - I give up. Send me your address and I'll give you my camera. :>) Anyway, once again, you are the Olympus Outdoor Imagery Kung Fu Master. Oh, by the way, congrats on the latest MFT Hall Of Fame award. Awesome man, just awesome." Tom, USA

"I have enjoyed receiving your Picture Postcards, so please continue sending me those! :-) Lots of good pictures and ever so nice to see something from the other side of the world. I also think you have improved a lot since you first started posting at MFT. Your pictures were good then as well, but I think you keep on getting better and better." Caroline, Norway
