As we head towards the tail end of another year I thought I’d better catch up on blog posts. Firstly I’d like to thank everyone who helped spread the word of my little exhibition in Bendigo back in September. All the wonderful compliments were much appreciated, as were, of course, the support of those who purchased exhibited pictures. There is always something very gratifying about seeing work I’ve laboured so hard over come to life in big prints. Thank-you all.
Now, onto the usual meat of these ramblings, namely trips and new images. Let’s see. I don’t have too much to present in this round, though it hasn’t been for want of trying. Maybe my standards have risen, but I’ve withheld a number of new images, despite the time invested in capturing and producing them. The test I come back to, for gallery inclusion, is “would I hang it on my wall?” If something is “nice”, that’s not enough for me. It really needs to be both beautiful and compelling, as well as technically without flaw. All the more so in this digital age where we are inundated with a constant stream of imagery.
