Fellows.

         Since getting married and remaining firmly entrenched in work at Cal Club as an assistant greenskeeper, I've realized less money and less time to travel in pursuit of amazing photographs from which to paint from.  I would love any collaborative help from anyone who has photos of beautiful holes they are willing to share either publicly or through email.  Most specifically, I am planning a painting of Bandon Dunes hole 6 and looking for a great photo from which to set up.  The other which I am eagerly seeking is your best Royal County Down image to rival Ran Morrissett's awesome choice from a couple years ago. 

         Thank you very kindly in advance.  I will surely find a way to thank you if and when your photo is a dynamic help.

Josh,

Here are a few from RCD.  The weather did not cooperate but I still took hundreds of shots.  Probably not brush-worthy but still inspiring.

Josh,
You're work is great.  Have you ever thought of doing a painting of Pine Valley?

That first photo of Royal County Down with the misty Mountains of Mourne behind is amazing, would get my vote!

Josh,

Guys, thanks very much for these.  Great photos.

Rick,

      Yes, I have thought/ dreamed of painting something at PV.  Hope/ plan that someday I will.   Got a great tour in March this year with the caddymaster. 

Niall,

       Postage Stamp would be awesome.
