"Two years ago, inspired by your web site, I bought a Leica Digilux 2 and have never looked back. Now, I have the most lovely mix of family images, portraits of my two darling children and beautiful landscapes from the highlands of Scotland, holidays, and macro shots of flowers etc.
I will never be a considered photographer but I don’t feel I need to as I enjoy my images so much. Please keep writing your articles and sending them out with continued regularity."

Artists Night in New York
Manhatten, New York, USA, June 28, 2013:
Late in the evening on June 28th we kicked off the first of many Performance and Art 'Salon' Nights at Edward Goldberg's 60th Street West apartment with a Steinway piano and a large terrace above the city.

About 60 people showed up for Joy Villa performing three of her songs accompanied on the Steinway by Edward Goldberg. And then a talk about living as an artist, as our Artits Nights are about (see the Facebook page "Artists Night" to be aprt of future events and hook up with Edward Goldberg on his Facebook to be part of future Performance and Art 'Salon' Nights in New York).

"Sometimes it just takes a few simple words to get the creative juices going again.
It does cause me to think about my photography and I really feel that I can just let my life lead my photography thanks to your philosophy. It gives me a sense of permission if that sounds logical. Many times I have forced myself to go places and do things that wouldn't be part of my ordinary routine.
So thanks for your article, always good to get your newsletter."
