I'm a bit slow on doing tributary stuff to the man himself so I thought I'd throw down links to some of my fave shots that Mr. Holden Jr has done. (It IS, Holden, right Craig?) I went thru his 17 pages (set at 90 images/page) for these and I know that I didn't throw down links to a LOT of other great shots. But I guess you can see what sort of shots really catch me eye!

These two shots have a bit of history behind them. These were some of Craig's first posted shots on the JD way back when. At that time, a lot of the old guys were around (Helljester, Luke Ellison, LeoTDragon, General Hawk, etc). Now, Luke was the MAN when it came to photoshopped aerial shots. Luke's the reason I got into Joe fotography and dios. But it was Craig's work that got us members confused. I pm'd at one point, "Are you really Luke Ellison?" The answer was of course, "NO".

My eary dio works (ok, Transformations, not the stuff before it), I asked Craig to help me out with some shots because my fotoshop skills were pretty much NON-EXISTENT. Many months later, I ended up learning how to do this stuff on my own so I didn't have to bug Craig all the time. His work was, of course, GREATLY APPRECIATED".

THESE are the two shots that floored me and like Luke, it opened my mind to what could be done with the proper skill set.
