had better days... day 23/365

*phone rings* I answer "I'm not going to say it, you know why I'm calling."
"yes, yes I do." *tears*

Farewell to a friend and a colleague, a photographer who taught me some great attitudes to hold, who told it like it was, and was old school tough. He lived hard, was hit with a horrid disease and ended his life so unlike the way he lived it, trapped by a disease.

T.T.F.N. Mark, thanks for being the hard nut you were and giving me some awesome laughs. You'll be missed.

Glorious Autumn - day 15 Project 365

What a gorgeous time of year, the light begins to change and the afternoons have a serene warmth to them.

Amid all the chaos going on in the world at the moment, earthquakes, tsunami's, floods, hurricane's... it's nice to take a moment and reflect on the beauty that is on offer too.

Day 11 of 365/6

What a crazy day, it's been so full of meetings and running around.

Productive? Yes. Daunting? Yes. Inspiring? Yes.

It's exciting to see the vision of Emily Black Photography become a reality. I'm loving see it all morph together, and take a shape all of its own. I had no idea the doors it would open, and am now wondering why I waited so long to take this huge step.

Day 11... a lot of diary notes and business talk.

Project 365

To celebrate the launch of www.emilyblackphotography.com I have begun my own Project 365. This is one photograph every day for 365 days... though, come to think of it; it will be 366 days until this time next year given 2012 will be a leap year... so, to kick things off (and in the spirit of a LEAP year) here is DAY 1: 1st March 2011 - Green Tree Frog.

You can follow this project more closely on my facebook page.
