Easily the best compliment I’ve ever had
Monday, August 27th, 2007
This picture has generated more unsolicited compliments than I’ve ever received. Including the following letter to the editor -
Jorgen Gulliksen’s picture of Efren Segura, airborne, lasso in full swing, was wonderful for its timing and also for its audience! That picture shows what we all hope for our children — generations of people — and more — smiling down on them as they accomplish something. If I could, I’d vote a Pulitzer Prize to you!

Speaking of the Pulitzer Prize, if you have not seen the story Renée Byer of the Sacramento Bee put together which earned the 2007 feature picture category award, you need to. One of the most powerful and moving photo stories I’ve ever seen.
