Dear OSP friends,

Earlier in the month, my camera was stolen from me at a wedding I was shooting. Yesterday after seeing that I was going to sell several lenses to raise money to purchase a replacement camera, Dustin Izatt got together a fund-raiser effort to help replace my camera.

I am humbled and blown away by the generosity of everyone who participated, giving funds, donating a lens and a battery grip. I don't feel worthy of the love you all have shown me, but I am so grateful.

OSP is a very special place, and I love you all so very much! You're all like a beautiful family to me.

:bigbighug:

Hugs to everyone,
Leann

Leann...no one deserves as much OSP love as you! You're one of the sweetest OSPers I've met...and...at last count, I think I've met about 150 of them! ;)

That is so awsome, really! It's nice to know that with all the crummy stuff going on (like your camera being stollen, or dustin's hard work being stollen by some jerk trying to pass it off as their own!) that there are people like the crowd of OSP that are still willing to do so much for eachother! I love it here! (and I hope everything works out for you!) Big hugz! :bigbighug:
