The Buy More Buddhas video is about to be launched. I can hardly wait. I’m going to put it up on this blog on Friday.

In the meantime, I want to take a moment to thank all of the photographers who let me use their photos to create this video; I couldn’t have done it without their generous sharing of their work.

Thank you. Very, very much (in no particular order) to:

Patti McCabe – an old friend who sent me shots of the Buddha in Boston.
@SPPictures – a previously total stranger who sent me four glorious Buddha photos. Check out her twitter feed and/or her web site.
David Croft – a shot of a Fredericton Restaurant Buddha – thanks, darlin’.
@AtTheHappyAmber – a previously total stranger who sent me a picture of her buddha raising the roof
@gnomeygg – my dear friend and haiku-writing genius. Check out her twitter feed.
Mireille Parizeau – sent me a shot of her own, personal Buddha. Thanks, my dear!
