HMS Warrior is a nineteenth century ironclad. She’s a beautiful vessel moored permanently within the Historic Dockyard at Portsmouth. I pass her every day on the way into work and she never fails to give me a little lift. When I was coming home and the sunset was looking so gorgeous, I couldn’t resist missing my ferry home for this shot!

I wanted you to see the Base of the Elephant tree. You can have no conception of how huge it is from this picture, but if I tell you both myself and my friend can sit comfortably on one of the knobby bits at the bottom it give you some idea. It is a fantastic tree for meditating under and if you look up it goes on for ever. I love trees and I think this is my very favourite.

“Take me out to the ball game, / Take me out with the crowd. / Buy me some peanuts and cracker jack, / I don’t care if I never get back, / Let me root, root, root for the home team, / If they don’t win it’s a shame. / For it’s one, two, three strikes, your out, / At the old ball game.”

Price Increase Hurts Us....

Well I have to vent about this issue as it only hurts us the artists/photographers. / When I first started selling cards (for example) my costs were: 10/09/07 $2.25USD (RB base price) so i allowed a mark up 47% so consumers paid $3.50USD per card which I felt was a reasonable cost for artwork on a greeting card. Now after only 2 months they have increased the cost to $2.85USD (RB base price) which would force me to mark down to 23% in order to retain the same cost to consumers of $3.50USD. I the artist would be taking a loss of 23% now, if I were to maintain that pricing! So the question is this, Who’s really getting hurt here?...ANSWER: WE ARE, not RB, and not the Consumers. Now i went over all the price changes and with all combined it looks like a difference of only 2.95 increase spread out over all products available (over all changes increased by 34.80, yet a decrease of 37.75 because Mounted Prints took a severe cut on base pricing, BUT that could be because they just dont sell quanties in comparsion to other products. I also excluded Posters as they were not available 2 months ago. But back to the point, Greeting Cards are going to have the most potential in sales revenue for them and us, consumers love art/photography but if they can buy a mini shot of it for the price of a descent greeting card they will. Kinda like that rule: Why buy the cow if you can get the milk for free? I see this as a huge increase by RB and claiming, “it takes more work to print than they antisipated” is BS, This company has been around for over a year now. They would have no more work than before, other than more customers, nor costs increase except if ink prices went slightly up and even that wouldnt spread out this high. Secondly they knew the minute they printed their first batch, production costs, and work applied to each sale/piece. Maybe offers like FREE SHIPPING are not really free at all, as this is one way to gain it back and then some. If prices go up anymore, then I’ll have to exit, the purpose of my selling is to sell, not for gouging my clients. Higher prices mean less sales to us and huge profits only to RB. Your Thoughts??

THE AQUINNAH CLIFFS (Gay Head, Martha’s Vineyard) are composed of one hundred and fifty feet of sediment from six glaciers – including red and white clays, green sands, white quartz, black organic soil, and lignite. They tell the story of the past hundred million years one colorful layer at a time. Clay from the Cliffs in modern days has been used for bricks, pottery, and paint. Early versions of Aquinnah Light were built with bricks made from Aquinnah clay. While there once was more red and purple in the Cliffs, those colors have eroded away. Now the Cliffs are protected as a National Historic Landmark: climbing and the removal of clay are both prohibited by law.

Sincere, Sarcastic, David Librach Reminds Us Why His Is Bigger than Ours, the US Leaves Canada Be, and Birthmarks Are More Relevant than Base Talent

This, the second of what will be a nice set of interviews with each of the Admins, had me writing oddly half-joking questions. The subject of the interview made a point of wondering how come he was not before Jo on my list of those to question (they hold the same job title), and so I made sure to give him extra questions to make up for my not superimposing his ego upon my own free will earlier this week. Shame on me. Over looking his megalomania, to my pleasant surprise the responses were even funnier than mine were questionably insulting… No reading ahead, but the answer to question four brought from me the first true belly-breaking, I am earnestly happy and amused laugh I’ve had in years. Also, be sure to take note of his double spacing between sentences, and occasional lessons on why our RB Forums, etc, often mark words as incorrectly spelled, when they are not spelled wrong at all. On with the show… 1. Who were you again? / The real question is who are you? Me? I’m just here to spew out carbon dioxide so that our trees can live. / (Incidentally, we are both wrong, unless I think he’s dead, and he thinks emphasizing the wrong words when making a point of it helps us any) 2. Ahem, so, David, was it? I noticed when I released my last interview, you seemed a bit jealous at having not had first go… have you always needed to be center of attention, or is this something which comes with age and 48 hour shifts? Perhaps a disorder from childhood? Anyone would find it difficult to follow in the footsteps of my esteemed colleague, Jo. However, it’s more likely due to a childhood disorder and on being the youngest sibling and always being referred to as ‘the brother’ and never as my own person. Probably why I like speaking up for the little guys and always route for the underdogs. 3. Nova Scotia… it amazes me just how spread out this RB crew is… I had to get a special program for my computer which displays the time in all the places I select so as to know when each of you rascally Admins will be around… how did you first get involved with RedBubble? After all, while it’s nice and warm in Australia, you live in a cold barren tundra which only gets sunlight once a month… how do you interact with the human species so well? A am literally a two hour boat ride in the Atlantic from being on the complete geological opposite side of the world from the head office. This definitely has some disadvantages, but the internet has made the world a smaller place and the warmth that much closer. There are a lot of misconceptions about the land I live in, but the truth isn’t nearly as exciting as the perception. Now if you’ll excuse me a moment, I have to go shovel the snow off of the satellite atop my igloo as my internet connection is slowing down… As to how I got involved with the site? Well, my wife was away for 8 months doing research in the bowels of Nicaragua and RedBubble became my mistress. It was love at first sight and our relationship grew stronger everyday. Thankfully my wife has returned and has allowed me to continue with this double life. 4. Are you thick skinned or a softy when it comes to being picked on by American Southerners who pick on those they respect? / A Softy? Me? A Canadian? I should remind our southern neighbours (yes, that’s the correct spelling) that we are the only country to have successfully invaded and burned down your capital. So no, I do not fear you or your words. 5. Right, well enough about the blanket you had as a child, I’d like to move on to your work. If I’m not mistaken you’re a photographer by birthright, and not only a point-and-clicker, but an “I’ve got a high powered lenser.” You’re a little bit the geek of the camera equipment world, and I just wanted to know if you were a player or the Dungeon Master back in high-school… Birthright? I don’t know. Birthmark? Maybe. It was just over three years ago that I discovered that a camera could be used for anything other than taking pictures of drunken nights at the bar. This new discovery has enlightened me and yes, has fed my passion for all things geeky. Dungeon Master…player…does it matter? Either way, my lens is still bigger than yours. 6. Here’s a tough one I get from people about you all the time: I quote, “David is one of the greatest guys I know, but his sense of humor is horrible. It rivals Peter’s, and that’s more than any woman can handle!” / Peter just had his first child, and is happily married… you have a wife, and a dog… my question is, where did so many others go wrong, and how would you help them lead normal lives? As a good friend likes to remind me, a happy wife is a happy life! Do as you’re told and remember you can never be right. Oh, and don’t eat yellow snow. 7.Indoor plants, or outdoor rock gardens? The / Rock Garden of course. 8. Left hand or right hand? Left eyed and right handed. I’ll let you figure out how that works. 9. You do wedding photography, and while I’ve been to a wedding I don’t remember it very well because of the pre-pre-wedding festivities. I hear though that they tend to be a mixture of crazy and clean… now, this won’t effect business because you’re good at what you do regardless, but doesn’t the overkill of joy you have to focus on make you a bit ill at times? Wouldn’t you rather just be photographing the bridesmaid puking in the guest bathroom, or the best man making out with the father of the groom? To quote Charles Dickens’ words about weddings… ‘Twas the best of times and the worst of times…’ (at least that is as far as I got in the book before I fell asleep and just assumed it was about weddings). Seriously though, there is something about a wedding day that brings out all the emotions that humans have to offer. My camera is simply an excuse to get me in ‘behind the ropes’ (and maybe even get a few images to use for extortion purposes and financial gain later on in life) . Given the choice though, I would put it all down and be a fly on the wall instead and just observe and study the chaos within. We are an interesting species to say the least and weddings are the perfect environment to study us in. 10. Ok, so I’ve been having some fun with you so far, but I do want to ask a couple serious questions. For instance, the end of your description on RedBubble quotes “The best way to find out about me though is not through my words, but rather through my images.” This is surely true, but the words preempting these nearly final ones would beg to differ. You are a deep conversationalist, at least on paper, and with how easily photography and literature cross translate, I’d imagine you’ve done some writing. Have you? If not, why? Ah…more childhood skeletons. English and Literature were my least favourite (again the correct spelling) subjects and I literally flunked out of them in school. Was always much more of a math and logic kinda guy. Hence the need for order symmetry within my art. However I’ve tried to bury the demons of my formal years of education and have rediscovered the world of art including that of the written word. Alas, I ain’t no writer and I do not play one on TV…I am simply a photographer. 11. Your final words are, “This is how I see the world and this is who I am.” I find these words very well put, and the soul behind them brilliant, but I WANT TO SEE YOUR FACE. What’s with the white manikin avatar picture from your work “Silenced”? Significance, or whim? RedBubble was the first community I met that accepted me solely based off of my art. Not because of what I looked liked, or where I went to school, or who my friends and family are or even because of my third eye on my right elbow. I simply wanted my art to speak for itself. In due time I imagine all will be revealed. 12. Finally, I’ve noticed you have a number of little galleries across the internet, but many of them are empty. No follow through, or no time? Perhaps you simply forget they exist like I do all my former networking sites? I was a lost soul, a nomad searching for an adventure in a new land, leaving a trail of sweets to find my way back home if I became too afraid to continue on. Last August I discovered my destination…RedBubble. I have no need to go back and pick up the candies anymore. 13. Oh, right, I lied, I have to bring back a classic: Your favorite meal is sitting before you… it is comprised of three things. What are they (and remember, no gasses… or ether, or the theoretical plasma either)? The sophisticated gent in me would want a nice spinach salad sprinkled with warm goat cheese and a raspberry vinaigrette followed by a medium-rare rack of lamb with a dijon mustard demi-glaze accompanied by an old world Syrah…but only if someone else is paying. On my dime nothing can beat a plate of nachos, a bucket of suicide chicken wings and a pint of Keiths. ____ Next Up: Pilgrim. I must say I am extremely excited to see what he has to say. After all, out of all of us Jesters and Fools, he keeps King Bubble’s head firmly planted in sage reason… Oh, right, Pilgrim, if you read this, I’m interviewing you next. :) Gordon
