Inspired by DA photographers

Mon Jun 22, 2009, 5:55 PM
Well, all the surfing on DA has paid off. I have been inspired by the wonderful photographic work here, and finally decided to try my hand at photography.. its not as messy as those darn oils.

Soo.. I really pissed off my wife and went out and bought an expensive camera. I figured good tools would make up for my lack of photographic expertise, and talent... What the heck!.. now I'm paying off the damn credit card at 23% interest.

I have been surfing lots of Photography sites... learning the ropes. I got really interested in the off camera flash stuff that David Hobby is doing over at his strobist blog site.. and I started to play...

Lots of fun. Now I am officially schizoid (although people have been hinting at that for years). Don't know whether I'm a painter, or a photographer... at least that is what I said to myself... self answered.. how the fuck should I know, your the creative one... I'm the one with the boring day job that lets you go out and buy expensive cameras.

aaaagh! don't you love having a mortgage
I just want to run away and hide in a studio somewhere and make art

have a lovely day

Thank you for your kind words of welcome. I am slowly getting the hang of DA.. not much of a computer person I'm afraid.

I am amazed at all the great work on display here. If I ever lose my muse I will know where to come for inspiration.

You mentioned joining the nude club you administer.. how do I do that?

all the best Pete

P.S. Than ks for adding my paintings to your favourites. I will have to post some more.
:iconeightoutside:
