The photographic art of Donald Rogers O’Neal

Colophon

Wall to Wall Photos was built with much care, love, and frequent thoughts of Don during the process.

We miss him dearly, but also strongly feel that he is here with us every day in many ways- this website is one of those ways that Don continues share with us and brighten our days.

Version One

Don asked that this website be built when he had less than a year left with us. He was amazing in his dedication to the project, and worked very hard on it in spite of the enormous difficulties he was also experiencing. We in turn, tried our best to help him realize his wishes through this site.

Version Two (current)

This is the second revision of Don's website, updated in April of 2009.

The first version of the site was completed in 2007- thankfully in time for Don to actually use it, and provide feedback. There were  some features which we did not complete in time for that version, however.

The need for some underlying technical changes, access to new functionality, those missing features from the first version, and a drive to improve the overall site experience led to the current revision.

We wanted to work harder to showcase Don's legacy of wonderful photographic art, and we sincerely hope that you enjoy your time here.

This website would not have been possible without the hard work of the following persons:

  • Brian Shumate: Don and Dawn did all the real work; all he did was help show it to you.
