WOW! Just landed at Heathrow airport on the way to Milan, and logged on to my favourite website, and before I had a chance to order a drink – I was amazed at the awesome comments on “Bored Intersection” – I couldn’t believe it… very much appreciated, especially the comment on the water reflection on the hand rail…. I know this sounds a little corny but I feel you guys are travelling with me… Lovin’ the comments along the way and lovin’ the RedBubble thing with a passion… thanks for the great support and there is nothing more exciting than sharing you creative work with like minded people. I will be stuck in a small Italian village for the next week, hoping for a internet connection there, but not holding my breath…

you are all awesome, see I been looking into this a bit, thinking, who is behind the big bubble. there are no ads, it’s so community minded, but if it was a government grant there would be logos still…. oh what, these are private goups of people who just want me to have an opportunity… love to you all… because you have revolutionised online galleries I reckon… if there is ever a job going for redbubble in brisbane, I got my hand up!!!! here’s to a long and lasting friendship.

Paul, I’m really trying but it’s hard to feel sorry ;)
I’m sure you’ll have a great time, lots of wonderful food, wine, characters and take some amazing pics

You’re all so well travelled. All I can say is “I’ve been to Bali too” and I’m just dying to get back there. Otherwise, overseas meant Tasmania!

As far as travelling goes its no match for the overwhelming passion and sincerity that you all bestow on each other. Sure the travelling is great and gives us an opportunity to capture great images, but without a doubt the experience of being a part of this community outweighs all else. It has been a revolution for me. Having said that, have a great trip and ‘break a lens’ for the rest of us !
p.s I think that ‘aqua chairs’ is a strikingly beautiful moment captured with such great sublety.

I’m sorry, but I just can’t fathom up the sympathy for you… travelling around the Earth, hanging around airports, being ‘stuck’ in little Italian villages, taking lots of photos… and all with your family (daughter at least) in tow… THEN like a true addict, you can’t help yourself… you just have to log into RedBubble!!! (to tell us about being stuck in Italy I suppose)
I’m glad that our RedBubble gods and elves are so passionate about RB, the RB community, art, photography and creativity!!! I am very thankful that RB is here!!!
I hope you are having a fabulous time, whether work or holiday and travel back to the land of Oz safely when you are all done being lost in little Italian villages ;D

WOW AGAIN – such wonderful messages and comments…. Love it! Well, just to keep up the tone, just arrived in Venice with my wife and daughter to lots of beautiful rain in the city of unique charm. Luckily I have an internet connection and can upload a couple of images I’ve been happily working on. Appreciate the comments in Italian too, Xavier and yes Loredana, I too, am from the small Australian village of Collingwood. Lovin’ the chance to keep you all up to date and will continue to snap away.

Paul, I understand what you wrote as your first entry here. ‘I know this sounds a little corny but I feel you guys are travelling with me… Lovin’ the comments along the way and lovin’ the RedBubble thing with a passion…’ Couldnt have put it any clearer how i feel about RB too! I’m supposed to be wokring but i find myself opening up safari and clicking RB again and again despite the times i close it determined to work!
PS: how did you get the red circle after your name? It really stands out.
Look forward to seeing your italian pics!
ayearning, 17 days ago
Italy, you say—oh mine, for some mischievous play! The unexpected (yet firmly connected) idea of living a life of creative leisure among such artistic treasures bounced right out of my ‘red bubble’ one day; and has never relaxed nor given relent.
In some highly crusty mountain’ side, I would rise to ease into each day’s please with Lake Como my constant abide. Just beginning I am with this RedBubble and realize a wealth of discovery with each visit. Have fun, enjoy your everyone, and tuck them each into some well kept brain angle where you can revisit again and again.
To the wealth of your health!
