Thank you for YOUR inspiration!

I am working on the next blog post, but wanted to take a second to thank all of you who have written to me, commented on the blog and Facebook, and shared this with friends. It is such an honor to have so many people following along on this crazy ride called the Winter Olympics. Someone once told me that it is a marathon, not a sprint. Well...at this point, I would say that I am sprinting this marathon.

And what gives me the energy to keep up this pace and write everyday? It is all of you who have been so kind to give me positive feedback, and also knowing that I am sharing stories that most people would not get anywhere else.

I know that I am VERY lucky to be here, and to be one of the few people in the world trusted to capture these historic moments. I also feel very lucky to receive emails from people saying that I am inspiring them to do more with their photography. That is really cool!

I usually respond to every email or question that I get, but for the next couple of weeks, it is unlikely to happen. If you have asked a question and not received an answer, please forgive me. At some point, I need to get a little sleep. :)

Again, thank you to everyone for joining me here virtually in Sochi. I have read every one of your comments, and use that as fuel to continue. Feel free to keep sharing this with your friends and family. You are all amazing!

All the best from Sochi.
