Hi, Brock Meeks of MSNBC.com here. I'm the Chief Washington Correspondent. Mostly a reporter but increasingly I'm taking on more of the photojournalist role.

I don't know what splendid act of fate brought your wonderful sight onto my radar screen. But since we humans should never question fate (tempting fate is another discussion altogether) I simply dived into Zone Zero and let its beauty, richness and simple elegance wash over me again and again.

You have created a truly wonderful place here.

And, now, I humbly ask to be part of it through your registration process.

Cheers -- Brock
