I've been sitting on the sidelines of Joedios since first discovering this site in´05. I've never posted a pic and only posted a reply once or twice. But I've been here daily to enjoy all the great pictures and stories. And it has really changed me.

To Outrider:

Looking at your pictures inspired me to always do things the best I could and to explore all angles and never settle for the first good available one. This holds true not only for taking pictures but also in taking decisions in life.

Reading your posts to other peoples pictures, your constant generous honest advice and constantly giving respect where it was due.
While being the best you never were shy about helping others achieve your status.
It is a way of looking at things that I strive to achieve myself.

And your battle against this foe. Your attitude towards it. It has really inspired me when my small insignificant troubles weigh me down.

You've really inspired me with your work, your words and your character.

Me, my family and friends will keep you in our prayers.

Thank you,
Arni Eggert
