Today I had the absolute honour of giving a short PHOTOGRAPHY talk to our local Rotary Club. I have printed out a "few" of my favourite shots from across the 10 years of my life in this small rural town, South Molton. We discussed all sorts of topics, too.
Henri Cartier-Bresson's quote I opened up with is absolutely spot on; as I both draw (paint & sculpt) and shoot, the difference in all of these experiences is tangible.
I wonder what the future holds for me next? 10 years in Chulmleigh, now here... the endless quest for that perfect shot or artwork never ends. Looking through these years, one gains wisdom in how to navigate the society. I am extremely grateful for how the local community appreciates what I do. This tiny English town surprised me, as I've met some of the most incredible, inspiring people here (well... in North Devon!)
If being a photographer means one is in love with life, then I am!
