The season is over, and I want to thank you all for your kind comments and especially your purchases from this season's hunting images. I look forward to getting even more pictures next season, and I hope that you will enjoy looking at this season's and previous years' images to whet your appetite for next fall.
Going Home
Once again, thank you for the orders and thank you for the suggestions to improve this site. Please send me your suggestions on how to continue improving the site.
The folks at the Masters of Fox Hound Association chose a vertical crop of this image for the winter 2009 issue.

A few people asked about whether I can make note and greeting cards from the hunt images. Yes, I certainly can. I have these three collections: Classic Images, Recent Hunt Images, and Four Foxes, of cards ready to go, and you can build your own collection as described below.
The minimum order is eight cards, and you can chose any combination of images for the note or greeting cards. I normally sell cards in sets of eight or twelve physical cards with one extra envelope. Note cards (4.25 x 5.5) are $2.50 each when you order eight or more cards, and greeting cards (5.5 x 8.5) are $5.00 each when you order eight or more cards.
The easiest way to order cards is to either send me an email with the list of images, or login to the web site and build your own personal collection of images. Once you have that collection ready, send me an email. I'll try to add an "Order Cards" function to the collection page in the next couple of days to help automate the process.
I have added user collections to my web site. Now, registered users can save their favorite images to a personal gallery by clicking on the "Add to Collection" button while viewing images or clicking the checkbox under the thumbnails in the gallery pages. Please tell me what you think about this and whether it's useful or not and ways in which it could be more useful. The collections are a great way to build your own selection of Hunt images for your personalized note or greeting card sets.
As always, I appreciate the help in identifying riders whether yourself or others, since I'm not always sure of who's who when you're wearing your hunt attire. Please send me an email, or use the comment form in the image viewer to submit the information.
I have also recently started to change how galleries are loaded and how you view the larger images. I am concerned that many of you might not have the high speed connections of my other web site visitors, and so the new approach might be a problem in that all the images are downloaded at once including both the thumbnails and larger copies. Please try going to one of my other big galleries like the Autumn or Flowers galleries, and then going to one of the FHC galleries. Please let me know if you like the new approach, Vote Yes, or if you prefer navigating with the Image Viewer page, Vote No.
