Oh, that sounds great, TPC & Dennis! Count me in!

We haven't abandonned this idea, but logistics of printing and production are a bit more convoluted and expensive than we had hoped. We continue to explore new ideas and hopefully we will be able to offer a book before much longer!

Another Bison Burger...

Idea is still alive and kicking, life just interfered last summer ... fortunately there is another summer right around the corner!

Hey, what ever happened with this idea, TPC & dennis?!

Pchemist · « **Reply #47 on:** July 11, 2009, 00:37 »

well, that is seriously planning ahead!

There is a spot cleared off on my coffee table for my new book.

dodobird · « **Reply #45 on:** July 10, 2009, 16:51 »

No pressure!!!!!

dodobird · « **Reply #44 on:** July 10, 2009, 16:50 »

Oh Wow! It really is going to happen. Have been thinking for a long time how great a book would be by TPC and Dennis (the best photographer I know).
Can hardly wait!!!!!

So are you considering the idea seriously? Be great to have the Manitoba/radisson pair in a book!!

Yes, we are considering the idea seriously. I will track down information on quality binding. Dennis & I will get together and see what we might be able to formulate in terms of a narrative and what kind of photos. We typically do this over a meal since it comes with a table that we can use for notes, hence the bison burger comment

Count me in for at least two books! And, if they're not ready for this Christmas, there are many other Christmases and birthdays after that . . .

....early shoppers? ...early wrappers?.....I feel the need for chocolate ...

Me too, Cammie. All the old folk on my list get gift certificates or donations in their name but the dang twentysomethings never seem to get me their lists until December 15. Next year the all get a Peregrine Falcon book! (Valiant attempt to get BOT)

eagle63_1999 · « **Reply #30 on:** July 09, 2009, 13:55 »

I dont have anyone to buy for Christmas so my shopping is nil and I rather like it that way lol

Loriann · « **Reply #28 on:** July 09, 2009, 13:02 »

hey i do the same.. all the jealous shopper/haters just WISH they were so organized.. personally i greatly dislike ( hate) the pushy shove-y christmas crowds and generally refuse to set foot in a mall after november.. i wrap as i buy to keep the chore down ( tg for gift bags and baskets,) and keep a list so i don't over spend when those special things pop up .

Pchemist · « **Reply #27 on:** July 09, 2009, 13:00 »

actually, I usually have all the shopping done by the end of summer (save for something really neat that wanders in or stuff for the niece and nephew as I don't get those requests in time). And it's generally all wrapped by Thanksgiving.

My family is really annoyed by that. it's my gift to me.

Then again, I keep a color-coded spreadsheet to track my gift buying. So, my OCD is showing.

Loriann · « **Reply #26 on:** July 09, 2009, 12:58 »

i've already started.. now is the time for all the great deals before all the ridiculous hype starts..

....and only around 168 shopping days until Christmas!!!!

seriously, did you have to say that? Now I'm suddenly feeling like I should be planning! aaaaaugh!

With yesterday's picture of Tracy and the little miss on the cover!

A book would be great. I would buy one. well maybe 2 or 3 come to think of it.
a fellow at Norfolk Virginia is doing a book on his photos of the eagles at Norfolk and I am buying one of those.

I hope its a go

I'll buy one. Can I get it autographed by Tupper?
Just an X or scratch will do.

Might be tough, though he might be in the book - he's very happy to be photographed - by me today and Radisson's Asst GM!!

And Pam!!!

ballywing · « **Reply #19 on:** July 08, 2009, 23:43 »

Looks like Dennis has already sold a couple dozen of his hypothetical books!!

...I'm in, I've always said his pics should be in nature magazines or something like that!

I want to buy one too, autographed please.

dodobird · « **Reply #15 on:** July 08, 2009, 17:18 »

I would treasure a book of photos by Dennis with text by Tracy. As would all my family members. I really hope you can go ahead with it. ( in your spare time, of course)

Moonstar · « **Reply #14 on:** July 08, 2009, 17:12 »

I would buy a book or tell my friends and family what I want for a gift. They all say I am so hard to buy for.
So one way or another...I would have that book.

Helen b · « **Reply #13 on:** July 08, 2009, 15:36 »

We could even set up a booth along the sidewalk when the falcons are arriving or nesting. Maybe get a telescope and set it up for people to view, Of course donations accepted.

I would buy a book as well as help with fundraising.

MLeclair · « **Reply #12 on:** July 08, 2009, 15:22 »

I would definitely buy at least one book. Great idea!

birdcamfan · « **Reply #11 on:** July 01, 2009, 17:58 »

Would love to add to my collection!

photosbydennis · « **Reply #10 on:** July 01, 2009, 15:48 »

Food for thought...might even buy one myself...lol

BirdLover · « **Reply #9 on:** July 01, 2009, 14:47 »

bccs · « **Reply #8 on:** July 01, 2009, 13:50 »

2 or 3 for me, great gifts.

eagle63_1999 · « **Reply #7 on:** July 01, 2009, 13:33 »

Yeah I think I would buy a book too

Kinderchick · « **Reply #6 on:** July 01, 2009, 12:21 »

Shovelled again!

I'm beginning to feel right at home,TPC!

But what a great idea, Dennis!

Keep talkin', TPC!

CeeBee · « **Reply #5 on:** July 01, 2009, 12:06 »

I would buy a copy too. More for gifts. Espcially autographed!

Thank You so much for sharing your gift of photography Dennis. It is very much appreciated! Wonderful pictures as usual from you.
I'm wondering, Dennis, if you have thought of creating a book of your photography of falcons or perhaps manitoba birds of prey?? photos with captions only, or as part of a study of the birds. I think it would be absolutely terrific!!

Nuts, Des, I was going to chat with Dennis about that tomorrow on our 5 hour rides!!! Just kidding, but I really was going to propose it on the trip to/from Brandon tomorrow - wonderful timing or great minds Des!

So Dennis, Prairie Peregrines - photos by Dennis Swayze, occasional text by TPC ?

I would buy an autographed copy

perhaps more fundraising for the falcons or some of the proceeds to go to the peregrine recovery project?

What a GREAT, idea, des! I, for one, would certainly buy it! And maybe we could hike up the price a bit, so it could also be a bit of a fund-raiser for the Project!

Just thinking out loud, Dennis!

BOT, not too much happening on the nestledge at present. All are chillin' and accounted for!
