I'm evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they're letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

  • The best blogging techniques.
  • How to get traffic to your blog.
  • How to turn your blog into money.

I'll let you know what I think once I've had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it's still free.

Faded Rose Goes to Loan Collection!

Just got the notice from the Professional Photographers of Canada that Faded Rose was also judged as Loan Collection worthy. This means it will be part of the travelling Loan Collection for a year. I think it might  also be going into a book of this years loan collection. It is a very selected collection of images that recieve this honour.

Won the Best Figure Study Trophy!

Faded RoseI am thrilled. My image, Faded Rose, won the Professional photographers of Canada Annual Print Salon Best Figure Study. Combining several images with some interesting Photoshop filter work created this image that excited the Judges.

I love texture and aged papers. By photographing Christy against a plain background it was easy to work the blend. The vision was to create an image that had a timeless feel to it, (her shaved head sure helped) with lots of character and story. In addition to two other images that were accepted for display I had three accreditations accepted. They were Fine Art/Photo Decor, Animal Portrait, and Fantasy Illustration.
