Mazel Tov!

best news. congrats!

hmm i'm sure this will bring up the old debate of what a photography is....

hehe!!!!
only kidding. congratulations on the news ;)

No idea about the car thing? I reckon you should get a bus or a coach (none of that mini nonsense)...

Good luck with it all

Congratulations David.

2 new "projects" to look forward to, you must be extremely excited.
Good luck with both of them!!

congrats! hope you got all the house renovations done since i saw you last june... things are sure to get crazy in the coming months.

i'm not too sad that this isn't a photo, afterall, you have created life. you can have a little wiggle room.

Congratulations!

You've almost gotten yourself a whole football-team ;)

Wow, congratulations, new chapters of your life will be written!

Congrats David on this news, I recently became a father myself for the first time so even though this aint your first, those first images you see on that scan are the best pictures ever.

Congrats and best of luck with everything. If there's anything at all I can do to help please do let me know and I'll be only too happy :)

Wow! Congratulations on the baby, that is very exciting news. Also, all my best on your career move. What an exciting 2007 you and your family will have.

David,

Congratulations to you and your whole family, if you haven't seen it rent: "Cheaper by the dozen". Sounds like you're half way there, so you may as well go for it ;-) I am 4 of 6 in my family and wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Regards,

--Pete

Warm congratulations, David, on the bits of news on several fronts!

Congrats all round - not sure which is the braver - new job or new baby!! every happiness and success.

Congrats on all fronts!

Excellent News!! Congratulations!!!

holy crap! congratulations! maybe it's because i'm not even 20 years old yet, but i can't imagine having that many kids running around the house. i think i'd go insane XD

To me your best shot on Chromasia. Good luck and God bless. Nice one DJN

Blimey, you are a glutton for punishment aren't you??!!!

Seriously, though, congratulations but where and how do you find time for anything. I barely seem to have time for taking photographs at all and I haven't even got any kids. How do you manage your time so effectively?

You have more kids than anyone on the planet...that is a fact.

Many congratulations, DJN!

Look forward to following how everything turns out...

All the best

Great news on both counts. You'll be needing a coach soon! ;-)

Good news about the job too. I'm in a similar position in that I've been at my company for 11 years and am now looking to move into the world of photography (albeit gradually!) full time! It's a scary, but exciting time. Remember you only live once, and you'd probably always regret it if you didn't take the jump at some point.

Best of luck with that Dave. Looks like 2007 will be a very exciting year for you!

CONGRATULATIONS

Congratulations and good luck with everything!

Congraulations!

Very cool and congrats!

Gosh you are a busy boy.....well done and congratulations......another little girl how lovely..... just fantastic.......good luck to you on all your other developments in the photo world too....wow.....altogether thats....busy busy busy.......
Congratulations again to you both and all your family! Cheers Jez XX

Are you having more kids so that you never run out of baby photos? Just kidding.

Mazel Tov David. All the best to you an Libby!

congrats.. I am glad that you´re blessed with a new baby and get the oppurtunity to focus more on the photography, it´s a big step but I am sure that you manage it.

A hearty congratulations to you and Libby. Looks like 2007 is going to be a fantastic year for you.

Congrats Dave! I like the photo, but now everyone will think I copied you even though I put my mine up first. Looks like your image has much better resolution though. I visit daily and enjoy your work. I look forward to your full time efforts even though your family is obviously a full time job in itself.

Congrats!!! I'm sure we will see many photos of this little one too. :)

congratulations.

Best regards and good luck.

Congratulations. Having two is a whole different ball game. Best of luck.

Congrats! This is so exciting

congratulations! :D
we will be waiting for pictures of another cute kid.
but seriously, why don't you upload a picture with the whole family?
like one of those classic familiar photos. :)

Congratulations on both fronts! That's very exciting.

Congratulations on all your new developments, especially your family's new baby girl. :-)

WOW! May you be blessed with much joy!

a new life

Good News, Congratulations

Congratulations. I wish you the best of luck in the future, whatever it may hold. :)

Congrats! I look forward to more amazing images in the future.

Congratulations! I wish you the best of luck in your family, new profession choice and getting a minibus =P

Congratulations David. I see a lot happening in your future and all of it good. You are going to be a father and a professional full time photographer after leaving your job. My best wishes for your future.

Congrats all around! A new path has appeared and you're prepared. Sounds like it was meant to be : )

Congratulations Dave. So when I come over I've got one more 'fruit head' to contend with ;-)

Great shot, although I think you should have run it through noise ninja first ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

See you soon.

John

*grins* Well.....clarity! You must be off your bleedin' rocker, mate. One small boy and a cat have driven me to ulcers, never mind 6 children!. Nah....seriously....you must be one of the most blessed and happy people I know. And I'm so happy that you're getting to do what you love best in the world....be with your wonderful family and exercise that great mind on creating things of outstanding beauty (I was referring to the photography there :p)

But yes, you'll be very much missed too. Will leave a big hole, DJ. (Might just join you on the great escape)

Give Libby and the spratlings my love and give me my dinner invitation before there's no damned room left at the dining table!
~xxx~

Congratulations and welcome to your new independent life

Congratulations Dave, I honestly don't know how you manage. I only have two young children and they're hard enough to look after! Does your other piece of news make you the first professional photoblogger? Either way, congratulations on that too - a great move.

Congrats! i love your site. this one caught me by surprise though. then to boot , your daughter is expected on my birthday. you should know this will make her an aries...strong willed , a bit hard headed , but loving and confident. it is the first sign of zodiac because of their tendancy to be leaders. so, congrats and happy holidays!

One of my local tour operators was advertising a coach the other day, I could make an enquiry if you like? ;-)

Many many congratulations to you both firstly for the imminant arrival of Junior, I hope all goes well and look forward to more lovely Chromasia children. Congratulations also for the new focus on the Chromasia career, it will be a runaway success. Mal

CONGRATULATIONS from Manc.!
Sebastian

Congratulations with all the news!!!! All the best for your family and your 'new' job.
Your blog is a part of my day the last months, so it will be. Thanks.

Congratulations Dave! All the best with the Nightingale army you're constructing and I've no doubt that Chromasia Ltd will provide for all the University fees for the many years to come. - Richard

Congratumalations :)

Congratulations on all counts, and all the best for the success of Chromasia in '07, '08, (and many many others)

Forget the minibus, buy a Mini instead - it would make for an interesting photograph!
Congratulations, Dave.

congradulations David! you have lovely children, the more the better ;) good luck with the new job, but what will you do with the psychology thing? that's also valuable :)

oh! and nice picture by the way.

oh! and nice picture by the way.

Congratulations

New Baby-Great news amd congrats.

Car- Get a roof rack, a bit cold at times but I'm sure you will manage, and just think of the shots you could get.

Job-Work is overated anyway

Full Time Chromasia-Good news for ALL of us. Good Luck and I look forward to helping you in your goals

Congratulations !!!

Man, you're a machine! The things you have to do to keep taking gorgeous baby pictures ;-)

congrats for your decision to do mainly photostuff and congrats for your new life.
have a great time

the newly Blackpool Jubilee Tram should just about fit all your brood.... It was on "Disovery channel" this morning(I'm on Holiday hence daytime tv). Mate Congrats on the new bump, April Aries is a very good sign, three days before my birthday, she is therefore destined to be genius of course....

restored, newly restored.... sorry oh and yeah your forgiven for the image, you added text and made it your own....

congratulations, both on the new baby & the new career!

Contrats on both pieces of news...Spending more time doing the thing that you enjoy most (and are so good at) is an enviable position to find yourself in.

Congrats to you expecting another one. And it's cool to see you making your passion for photography into a job. Good luck.

I'm jealous about your career opporutunity and very happy for your new little girl! Congratulations from the states!!

Congratualions and best wishes to both of you on your wonderful news. Another little person, another little character - eclipses eveything! And the very best of luck in your new permanent career with Chromasia, I shall look forward to watching it all develop further over the comming months. I have never posted a comment here before, but today is special. I very much admire your work - thanks. Bon chance!

It's odd, isn't it. I don't know you, but reading this makes me smile a warm smile. Congratulations! Wow, 5 children! We've got 4 children running around here, and it can be pretty hectic... would make a 5th one make a big diference? ;-) And congrats on the new job too, of course! Lots of changes to look forward to!

Congratulations David!!

Congratulations!!

The best news. congratulations, Dave!

Note: Remember the interview in jggweb.com ok?

Many congratulations, officially! I'm delighted for you all, and think your 'new' job sounds really exciting. 2007 is going to be a good year!

Goodness, a fifth child! Congratulations, and good luck! :)

Congrats Dave! on the photoblog before shes even born ;)

Mr. DJN,

I'm sneaking this in to say that the real reason you've expecting another child is to have a never ending supply of cute little girls to photograph! As your two others get older, they won't be such willing participants! Congratulations to you and the Misses.

Dave,
You and Libby and the ''tribe '' deserve all that you are now reaping. You amaze me with your seemingly tireless energy and efforts ... and of course, all the responses show how much you are appreciated. Even me, an almost retired 60 yr old, worn out with teaching, has been inspired by your blog site into really kickstarting the hobby into an important part of my life. Thanks so so much. Richard

Dave, ¡¡¡C.O.N.G.R.A.T.U.L.A.T.I.O.N.S.!!! I have been out of the blogosphere for quite some time... but this is worth returning, if only, to make a comment.

Velviapix, feeling of color.

Congratulations on both new beginnings!

david, many congrats on both. my children are the greatest of blessing and judging by the increasing size of your family i am sure you feel the same. in regards to the career change, i am more than happy for your decision. you are leaving one job you love for another you love even more. i do not know that it can get much better than that. i look forward to seeing the impact o your work that these changes bring. thanks again for sharing your journeys with me/us.

Congratulations, great news there.
You have such great times with your little girl, my little girl is my best friend.
Also great news going Full Time with Chromasia, can't wait to learn more from the MASTER.

Well done.
Mic @ differentimages.

Congratulations are most definitely in order. Babies are beautiful. I also wish you the best of luck now that you are taking the plunge into the pro ranks.

Congrats!

Is it cliche at this point to say... congratulations? :-)

WOW congratulation on your latest, imminant, addition. As a, very tired, father of four, I can't imagine how you will find the energy to survive all the demands on your time. How will you and Finlay cope in this house of hormones?

Congratulations to you both! Hope everything goes well.
It's high time you took up another recreational pastime..!
Scrabble is good: 'procreation' would get you a score of 15...triple word score...now that's real excitement...:-)

Congratulations Dave, on all sides, you're a brave man ;) Wishing you all the best.

ps. I think the car you're looking for is called a 'bus'.

Congratulations on the forthcoming baby David (and Libby!), and for the new direction as well. I don't know how you do it. I have 2 children and I'm almost always stressed out as a parent. This will be what.. 6 for you?
Chromasia has turned out very well for you over the last few years, and congratulations on that as well. Way to go!!

Congratulations David & Libby on the new family menber... yes, it seems like yesterday when you told us about Finley :-)

My best wishes on the coming times with the new baby and the "change" of careers. Good luck!

How about calling her Victoria....after the hospital.
Well done, congratulations, and good luck to Libby for the coming pregnancy and birth.
You have been a source of inspiration for many, many people, a photographer of the calibre so many aspire to. I hope your ventures lead you to the place you, yourself aspire to.
Perhaps a little time for reflection is a good place to start. Be well DJN.

congratulations =)

CONGRATS TEAM CHROMASIA!

Been a while since chromadance.txt has been opened. (Yes I do have it saved in a text file) ...
Anyway. Two things... 1) John Washington is right (his comment stands out like a sore thumb) .. definite need of noise ninja and 2) MAN.. I actually said "WHAT THE F>.." when I loaded your site tonight. Congratulations but really.. quit it! hah.

Hi, hearty congratulations on two things you mentioned. Great to know that you want to raise more kids.

wish you all the best and thanks for posting your photos.

Nice picture and congratulations of course :)

Dear David,

All my best wishes for you, your wife and the rest of the children! But the bad news is that it seems you will be abandoning us, your students. Could you please let me know who should I turn to now in order to complete my dissertation?
Thank you in advance,
Monica Krebs

Congratualtions mate :)

Congratulations to you and Libby - blessings and joy in 2007!!!
