So, I've come up against a roadblock recently thanks to our lovely economic situation. We recently expanded the enclosure earlier this year for The Redwood Pack (featured in a fair amount of photos in my gallery). That relates to a financial issue for us since we need to provide three erosion barriers spanning the enclosure to prevent the same sort of mudslide issue that hit us at the beginning of the year. We put preventative measures in place but now it's getting to where we have to act before the rainy season is upon us and the pack yet again. Brandon (my partner) is facing severe issues with his antique and artifact restoration business due to the economy. I have a pretty solid job no matter the economy since I'm in the medical field, but since it's as a veterinary technician things are getting really tight with me just affording our bills.

Now, this is where I put the call for help out. I hardly do any sales here on DA (I haven't even received my first $25 profit check yet) so I wanted to do some sort of fund raiser here on DA. For a week I will have my prices lowered considerably in the hopes of generating some sort of fund to help the pack. I'm planning for this to start as of next week if I see a worthy enough response here.

So, now's the time to speak up. If there's a sale on my photography would you be interested? It doesn't even matter if it's the smallest print I offer that you would purchase, the question is just if there is any interest. The sanctuary photos will still of course get the proceeds that I promise in the photo descriptions.

I love sharing photography featuring rescue animals and their stories. All the outpouring of support I receive in comments and notes on here means the world to me. Asking for a donation is a hard thing for me to do (just ask anyone who knows me), but at this point I don't have a lot of options. I'm hoping by promoting this sale (and having watchers help spread the word) it will provide incentive for pre-christmas sales at the very least.

In the meantime I promise more photography regardless.

Sincerely,

Harry
