  1. Purpose Driven Photography

    2023-07-01 20:41:23 UTC

    Today was special for a number of reasons. Firstly, I felt like giving my Fuji Cameras a rest; instead, I used my old Nikon D7100 paired with Nikon 18-105mm 3.5-5.6. This camera is simply wonderful, it is light, agile, 24mp and delivers wonderful Raw Files. The 18-105mm has gotten a…

  2. The Big Question

    2022-08-23 20:13:24 UTC

    I am not sure there is an answer to this question. I am also thinking trying to unlock this question may be futile. This Journal entry is me having a conversation with myself about why I am doing this - creating images everyday. I never leave home without my Camera…

  6. Multiple Layers of Learning

    2018-07-21 14:23:46 UTC

    One of the great missions in life is the creation of meaning. Viktor Frankle wrote a book about this. My life has seen me ebb and flow between searching, experiencing frustration, feeling at peace and joyful on this path toward fulfilment. I am constantly enquiringly into the purpose and meaning…
