Making my Heart sing !!

For  a while especially the end of 2011, I had spent quite a bit of time, trying to workout how I wanted 2012 to unroll !!

LOng story short, I’m going to be concentrating more on my Fine art this year. This doesn’t mean I will stop my other , my other two areas.Just I will start putting more marketing effort,

on the Outdoor Fine Art , I want to see it solve some problems this year. To help better a person’s life would be the ultimate goal for one of my photo art pieces !!!!

The fineart road for me !!

I’m going to pull myself out of the Social photography arena. My heart is not into anymore. And to be honest, there are just so many photographers  , that want and do shoot so much cheaper than I can afford to . I wish them all well !!

MY Dream has always been to own a art gallery to show case my work as well as help my community. So that is the road that I will be traveling !! Look for me at some local art type shows especially in the Suffolk Uk area.

You may even see me setup on the RAF Lakenheath or Mildenhall base trying to share my “Wall Art ”

Nature Photography….Therapy in the Outdoors !!

Many years,ago my outdoor photography started with shooting sports. The Yearbook Editor of the time encouraged me to take a camera and shoot as often as I wanted too !!  being a kid that loved being on the water. A camera became my hiking partner.

When you take your camera for a walk . What do you enjoy shooting ?

Keeping the arts alive in local places .

Right out the gate, I’m a lover of Sports . I’m also a devoted fan of all the different aspects of the Arts . But I do have a problem when art programs have to be cut to keep the sports program alive.

Sadly this is what’s happening in alot of small places. The art programs are getting cut, and the money going to fund a local sports program.  Money is getting tight everywhere we all know this.  and at some point local counsels are going to start pulling funds from projects that are not working.

Id hate to see that to a rural place like  Lakenheath Suffolk. I think I can honestly say that the council has more stressing problems.

So who will fund these art programs ? Does anyone really care about them fading away ?

Lakenheath Suffolk

Lakenheath Suffolk… by most accord a retirement village.  Its a village of old families, and old family names. And they help each other. To move into this village as a outsider. Even despite your number of years here , you’ll still be a outsider.  So how does a business progress in a rural setting like this.

Well if your part of one of the main families you wil do well. BUt lets jump ahead to 2011, this is a farming town. It always has been. The young people move out and away trying to seek employment.  But with the military bases here, they have been a steady resource for British landlords for years . But that is going to change, as the base moves more & more people back onto the base. These landlords are going to be in a crunch , because the average British tenant can not afford the housing.

So why am I beating my head against a rock trying to market to these people, when I should be concentrating  on Cambridge, NewMarket, London even !!!
