“Your work is truely captivating. I honestly felt that I could step into the pictures and feel them. It is not often that pictures make you feel that way, and yours certainly did. You have a wonderful eye and a gifted talent to capture this. And the places you go are simply beautiful and serene. Kind of makes me feel that East Coast living is not the place to be!
I Just want you to know that I received the photos a few weeks ago and they are just GORGEOUS! I was so pleased with the quality and the crispness of each photo. They look fantastic and I have recieved many compliments on them already. A friend actually thought I had Ansel Adams prints...Imagine that! So take that as a compliment, of course. :) Thank you for sharing your wonderful work! ”

“We received the pictures and they are absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much for your help in making the choices on framing, etc.”
I found your website and spent some time in your gallery. Magnificent is all I can say! You seem to find the emotional element in a scene and communicte the mystery that must speak to you as the observer. I want to enter those photographs and hike beyond the frame .

Your work is stunning and rich and lush. I really enjoyed viewing it. I certainly understand why Idaho's Public Television station would have you as one of the photographers for the "Picturing Idaho" video. I've never questioned the idea of photography being fine art. I KNOW it is. And your work is more proof of that fact.

The print is finally framed and on my wall and I am in awe. It's great to get up in the morning and see it hanging there, it is really an inspiring work of art. Makes me wish I lived in the Pahsimeroi Valley. Thanks

I purchased a large version of your Moulton barn print this fall, and I just wanted to let you know what a hit it was over Christmas. That land holds many special memories for my husband, and on Christmas morning when I led him out to see his gift, he was choked up over the lovely work. Thanks so much for capturing such a beautiful, meaningful landscape and for your timely, professional communications and shipping. It was a pleasure doing business with you, and we will enjoy our heirloom print for many years to come.
Sincerely,
Katharina Bullington Moulton

"Leland!
I wanted to let you know that our program Picturing Idaho has been nominated for an Emmy this year. We couldn't have it without you and all your help. So pat yourself on the back a bit for giving us such a wonderful story to tell and such amazing images to show. I hope you're well and that we get to share a few drinks one of these days. Perhaps not at 10,000 feet this time!
We won the coveted Golden Eagle Award fron the CINE Film Festival.
All the best!

"I wanted to tell you how professional and sharp your presentation was, and how much patrons relished your work. My favorite was one that reminded me of Salvador Dali--it was very surreal. It's hard to say that was my favorite, I was touched by many of them. Your artistry is amazing".

"I am in awe... not to mention in tears. This morning I received your four prints. Stunning and moving would be a complete understatement".
Governor Dirk Kempthorne:
"Your photos are magnificent and you capture the beauty of Idaho perfectly, truly beautiful".
Angela Olson:
" Perhaps it's difficult to imagine how happy it makes me to see my prints every morning and every evening when I come home and I wish I could adequately describe the happiness I feel when I see them. I wish I could explain to you why they've come to mean so much to me, but maybe that doesn't matter. I just want you to know that your work touches me in a very special way. It helps me dream, believe, and to remain hopeful; it helps to remind me to look for the beauty in everything and to appreciate the gifts we are given everyday. I find myself watching sunrises and sunsets, something I have forgotten to do over the years, something I would guess most of us forget as life wears us down. Thank you again for sharing you work and your perspective".
Diane Hawk:
"The beauty is almost too much for words."
Jen Bodnar:
Congratulations on capturing this beautiful scene that can take an observers breath away."
Kathy Harris:

"Your photograph appears to capture the peace and tranquility of the area"

"Just letting you know I received my picture today. I am very pleased with it and can't wait to have it framed. I will be ordering another in the future. I think you do the most beautiful nature photography I've seen."

"Dear Mr. Howard,
To begin with you are an awesome and talented artist. I have enjoyed viewing all of your work displayed on your website. I have a fine art background and my father was a photographer of portraits and the outdoors, he taught me much about composition and light. You create feelings with your work not just pretty photographs. Thank you for the experience! I am currently in the process of building a website/business of the Continental Divide Trail system. It is an informative site on the trail and its highlights including maps and suggested areas and adventure stories. It will also be an outdoor supply and clothing store. I am in search of powerful imagery to use within the site both singularly and on a rotating basis. Your photography is spectacular and speaks well to the feeling that I want to portray within our site. We are interested in getting a quote on a price for a CD of your photography of the Continental Divide".
Sincerely,
Cheryl

"Dear Leland,
Your pictures are awesome! Would there be any discount if I bought three or four? I will plan to order next week after hearing your response. Keep up the great work. Viewing this natural beauty in picture form is inspiring; real life viewing must be breathtaking!
Thank you".
Kathy Moore:
"The picture we ordered from you came already! It was delivered this afternoon. It is absolutely beautiful. The quality is first rate. I can't believe the clarity of detail. I love the composition of the photo; I love both the balance and the movement of the shot. The colors are likewise fabulous. Thanks again for the photo. We will cherish it for a long time".
