Bringing the camera with me on my walks on the beach is actually turning out to be fruitful and very useful.. And a lot more fun than last years white table I used constantly!
The local rowing club were out practising and had "parked" their boat as they went to get another out of the club house.. The tide was out so I managed to catch a reflection of their boat in the sand.. It never ceases to amaze me how much is going on in the world every moment of every day...
Philosophical moment over... carry on....
View on Black!
Panoramic view of Beltra lake with the Nephin Beag range, Co. Mayo. Taken in December 2010. At the time I didn't even know what a panoramic image entailed or how to do one! This is a merge of 4 images taken out of sequence, works for me!
I keep asking myself why I take pictures. Why am I photographer? The truth is....I'm not sure. I've always liked creating things and being an introvert, photography was something I could do on my own.
I enjoy documenting the world around me and a lot of my photos are around my house because I just don't get out that often or I don't bring my camera with me enough when I do get out.
One of the best things about being a generalist in photography, I can shoot whatever I want which is great but it also means I'll never be really good one particular genre. I've never really been good at anything in life, photography has really been the only thing that people actually seem to like from me. That makes me happy and brings joy to my life when people enjoy my work.
As you may have noticed, I'm not as active on Flickr as I once was. Flickr has become a big time suck for me, I was spending hours and hours a day looking at other peoples photos and usually commenting on them but that was taking time away from me and It may sound selfish but I need time to work on me to become a better person and a better photographer. I also want to get back into making YouTube videos as well.
I don't know. I was Lightroom and I saw this photo of me being reflected in this hubcap and kind of had one of those self reflection moments about why I take pictures. I've been too hard on myself lately when it comes to photography. It's suppose to be a fun thing, I shouldn't stress out over it.
I realized that I focused so much on the numbers and that's not what photography is about.
So I want to have fun taking pictures again, I don't want to think about whether or not people will like this photo or not because in the end, it doesn't matter. I'm the only one who has to like it and if others don't, they that's fine too. I enjoy sharing my photos with the world because that one photo could make a difference in someone out there. It could put a smile on that one person that's having a real bad day. That's worth it to me.
If you read all of this, Thank you. Means a lot ot me.
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasnt arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and Im going to be happy in it.

MY B&W photography :
We just announced several new workshops for May & June! We'll be going to Reflection Canyon and Coyote Gulch on May 16-18. I took this shot of Reflection Canyon last spring and it really lived up to its name with crystal clear reflections! The Escalante workshops will be held on May 11-15 and June 9-13 and will focus on night photography.
You'll want to photograph the wild and vast Grand Staircase Escalante before it all changes! You've probably heard that it will be reduced in size and significant infrastructural changes have been planned for oil, gas, and mining activities. These events will undoubtedly change this uniquely beautiful landscape with increased human foot-print, light pollution, and contamination. As it is right now, the Grand Staircase has the darkest skies in the lower 48 states and is THE mecca for night photography.

Took a bike ride through Assiniboine Park near my home last night, It was such a peaceful calm evening and the light was just right to capture these young teenagers relaxing on the banks of the duck pond.
