I would like to
take this opportunity
to thank my son,
Bryan Koci for his
hard work in
producing the pictures
for the cover.
Unfortunately, you
only get to see a
single sample from
the many fantastic
images he took. Bryan
owns a successful
photography
company (Red Tie
Photography), as well
as works as the Media
and Marketing
Manager at Whissel
Realty. His expertise
helps to bring my
creations to life and
allows me to share
them with you (see
Resources).
