Wow. Thank you very much.

Instead of a new thread each time I'm going to just keep this one going........one to the next victim.

Next is MWO Decaux.

MWO Decaux has served in the regular and reserve force with the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) for over 30 years.

His time has seen him operate with many units in the Army and with the Royal Canadian Airforce in domestic and international operations.

MWO Decaux is the MWO CBRN Standards for the Canadian Forces Fire and CBRN Academy (CFFCA).

I have worked with MWO Decaux since he joined CFFCA in 2008 and he has always been an excellent mentor for younger NCO's. He never tires of ensuring that proper honours and traditions are passed on.

Thank you for your service.

Hmm, I am definitely not a portrait photographer but I do have to say that you need to work on more "separation" when it comes to black on black ... I am reminded of how Yousuf Karsh worked with light ... I do like the frontal lighting, I just don't like how beret looks.

Hmm, or is this because you are adjusting for the printing as you mentioned before.

 

[zombiesniper]

No, This one is as intended.

I wasn't worried about the Beret, but I think that's more personal taste.

Next is WO Donaldson.

WO Donaldson has served in the regular force with the 1 and 3 PPCLI as well as the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) for over 20 years.

His time has seen him operate with many units in the Army in domestic and international operations in places such a Bosnia and Afghanistan.

Thank you for your service.

Trying to make a push before November.

What happens in November?

 

[zombiesniper]

I wanted to have something for our local Legion to use for advertising, like a flyer.
Still haven't worked out what it would look like.....why I haven't emailed you on it yet. lol
