Hello to anyone that follows my ramblings on here. just thought i would drop by and put a post online saying how much I am missing my camera and having opportunities to be creative. Due to security here, I am not allowed to be out and about photographing stuff therefore I didn’t bring any of my DSLR kit to Afghanistan with me.
For this reason, I’ve decided that I need to start planning some stuff for the future.
I’ve been very busy this last month or so speaking to two friends, and have signed 2 hopefully lucrative contracts. They are totally un related to photography, in fact one is in the Health and Leisure industry and the other is in the beauty industry. I’ll be working hard wth these guys next year with the aim to move back to Europe and get involved with the businesses as soon as is possible. This will allow me to have hobbies and interests outside of work as working here in Afghan, I have no free time in which I can do stuff I want to do other than watch movies.
I’m planning a 365 project next year. I tried it back when I was living in the Dominican Republic and it started off well, had a few followers and was showing promise until I got distracted or lost interest, which ever it was back in Feb 2010, but I promise to stick with it next time. I have a few ideas that I want to run with that have been inspired by some work produced by others, more to come on that later, maybe even t’s own mini blog site.
Also, I want to start getting more and more people in front of my camera and get creative with them. I want to start a body of work that both pushes my creativity and also tells the story of the characters that I get to photograph.
I think that’s all for now, thanks for readying and if you are following, leave a comment so I can gauge what my audience is now.
Many thanks, Lee
