Keeping your nerve. NB
I enjoyed Pete Cairn’s case for creative individuality on his blog recently. It seems to me that a willingness to find your own “pool” rather than trying to push into one already packed with other wildebeest is a vital. The … Continue reading
An Italian Christmas Carol…without too many ghosts. PHD

Italian Tale 3 – Seven years and no (h)itch. PHD

A Fear of Reinvention. CB
You start out with nothing: No awards, tear-sheets, books or credit lines. In those early, embryonic buddings of a career in nature photography, you have nothing tangible to hold up to the world as proof-positive of your potential. But then, … Continue reading →
