Writing again...

It's been so many months since I put a post here.  I've had a serious block when it came to writing.  It happens.  I've just gone with the flow and let it work its way out of my system.

Last weekend I had a chance to exhibit some of my images and trying to get an artists statement on paper was torture but ... it eventually happened so fingers crossed ....

The exhibition was fabulous.  Just a group of 8 so the exhibition was called 8x8.  We had all been working with Len Metcalf  (http://lensschool.com/) through 2011 and the images that were hung were a celebration of our growth.

Many friends, lots of locals and people wandering in to the hall as they walked by to the movies.  We even sold some work so we each now have a few dollars in the kitty to support our own photography.

So what's been happening??  Lots and lots...  I now have a market stall up and running with another fabulous photographer, Robyn Cook  (http://robyncook.photomerchant.net/home).  We have a name - Infinitiblu Photos and our newly launched Facebook page is here:  https://www.facebook.com/InfinitibluPhotos

Our new market is The Blue Bird Market @ the Alexandra Hotel, GWH Leura between 10.00-3.00   Next market date is Easter Saturday so we are busy replenishing our stock.  We've made some quite beautiful photography products and will have quite of number of images for sale as well as cards, bookmarks etc.

My website is also live.  www.shirleysteel.com  It's such a learning curve staying on top of this new direction but I love it.

Today I have posted a few of the images on the website from the Seascape Series, that I exhibited at the 8x8 exhibition last weekend.  I hope you enjoy them.

Here is my favourite.

PS  It goes to show that I can't critique my own work as no one else was particularly interested in this one??  It now looks good on my wall at home!
