Along with all of the new photo projects I have coming up; I have really been enjoying turning some of my work into art. It's really amazing with the tools that are available to be able to create depth and further meaning to photographs. Once you get into the different software available, there is so much you can do in terms of enhancements. The true art of a photograph is getting it right the first time, a magical moment like those of Eugenic that were part of my last blog. But there is definitely a different art and feel to graphic art and it is really something I'm enjoying learning as I go. I had this conversation with a good friend over the weekend. Nothing that I do, whether it is in music, or with visual arts - was taught to me. When it comes to playing bass, I have played since I was 11 years old, but couldn't tell you more than the basics of music theory. I taught myself, listening to music, and mimicking it. Photography has been that way too. It was just something I thought would be fun and learned I had a bit of an eye for. I would love to make a living at either, and the best way to start, is to get out there, and just do it. It still blows me away that so many people come to the site for updates, and I can't wait to add more work and pursue what was a hobby on the back burner until the beginning of this year. Thanks for the support everyone, and I hope you enjoy the latest editions! Look through all of the categories on the site, as more and more pictures have been added!
