The Christmas Spirit - via Boat?
(Image taken 12.20.09 (the following night)
I live in a very cool place – not only because it’s cold here in Canada, but also because I have a wonderful water view home. I’m not trying to boast here, but that description helps you to envision what I have just witnessed not 5 minutes ago.
You see,...
Improve Views & Click-thru's
I’ve noticed quite often, in both journal entries and in banners on images that have been featured in a group, that few of the images are linked directly to the page the image comes from or is associated with.
You can increase the views and comments on your images by simply making your posts with images in them clickable. This would also be a great way to showcase images you are proud of, b…
A List of Art Selling Options
I found a very informative blog post that lists the top 20 places to add your work and sell it, and RedBubble.com is on this list!

How Am I Doing?
I had to ask myself that question a few days ago when I decided to see the section of my account which tells me how many sales I’ve made and what I’ve earned in the last 18 months.

This is an excerpt from that blog post:

Save the Bloedel Conservatory
I want to do what I can to participate in the effort to save the Bloedel Conservatory in Queen Elizabeth Park, Vancouver BC Canada, because it is such a great place to visit and is nearly as old as I am!!! I’ve done a rudimentary video combining footage of the Conservatory with images I have taken from within to express just how wonderful this place is. This video was done spur-of-the moment,...
Artist or Photographer?
When people ask me what I do, I tell them that I am a photographer. It is however a broad statement on my part as my work showcased here on RB, and other “photo” sharing sites is a combination of my photography and my artwork.
With the advent of digital imagry and manipulation, I often find myself not satisfied with a base image that I have photographed and manipulate it into artwork usin…
