Opportunities and Goals


For the past week I have been concentrating on another goal for my art career. With the help of my friend, Nancy Louie, I've been learning the technical side of shooting and post processing high resolution digital photographs. My objective is to commercially license some of my artwork and possibly eventually even photos. Here is a picture of my big new (second hand) d2x. Although a very complicated piece of equipment and a huge technical challenge for me, I'm already falling in love with it.


Here's my favorite scenic shot so far. See more about my photography endeavors on my Spirit Art Blog. Also see this week's Inspiration Everyday quotes on GOALS.

  2. Sandy, if you took this photo with your new camera, looks like you've got it mastered to me! That's a beautiful photo--is this near your home? If so, lucky you!

  3. Yes, this picture was taken on my property. I'm a long way from having this mastered but I will persist! I think this was just a lucky shot. :-D
    Thanks for following me and for sharing your thoughts - Cheryl and Denise!

  4. That is a beautiful capture of light in the forest Sandy, you could use that to cover a whole wall and never tire of it!
    Glad you have taken up photography, it is so satisfying.

  6. I think you're going to do just fine. The technical learning curve will be ahead. It's a process. You already have the skills needed as a visual artist, San! Photography is another medium to add to your present skill set.
