Launch of website.

[Lonewolf]

In an endeavour to have some employment when I retire in the near future and still be able to feed the wife and my dogs, (not necessarily in that order),    I have come up with a plan, a plan so cunning it is shockingly brilliant.


I'm going to have a stab at making a modest living out of photography. I am not a professional photographer, whatever that is, is it someone who has lots of qualifications to their name or is it someone who receives payment for their craft? In any case, I don't currently really fall into either category!


I've launched a website and been doing the rounds at local businesses in line with my chosen subjects, providing business cards, flyers, etc.


Things are slowly moving in the right direction but I would be grateful if members on here would spread the word, share the website address etc if you know anyone who might fancy some work doing.


The website is a work in progress and hopefully it'll be more impactive in the near future, but everyone has to start somewhere.

I thank you.

Good luck with your venture Steve, I told you before you should consider a photographic career   

Maybe a better home page header picture would help

p.s.    I'm saying that before Pete does

Roger, if I could find someone local with a GTR who wants it photographing that would be a start!


It's saying something when no GTR owner wants a photograph of their bike!

Maybe it's because you live in the badlands

Steve, it looks really good to me and I hope that it works well for you. The problem that I have found since going part time however is that there simply isn't enough time to do the things that you really want to do and the work. It does seem that work always takes place when the weather is at its best, too!

  or should that be  

EDIT:   Just thinking ypou can photograph something very GREEN when the weather improves here ...its snowing at the moment

I would love a picture of my bike but am too far. Good luck with business venture. I am sure you will do well.

[Lonewolf]

Roger, its been trying to snow here a bit as well hence my frustrated Facebook comment this morning. Suns out now though so normal Bradford driving style will resume as soon as possible. 


Pete, I'm fetching my gear to the bike meet later this year, so I can take some then of your bike if you wish.


I would like to get a photo of a GTR before then though and have it printed & framed like I have some other bike makes to show you all. I have a stunning framed print of a green ZZR and it looks truly awesome.

I have a 6 days break off a month now weather and your hours permitting we can resolve this problem 

And all the best with your adventure with your work I have seen you should do very well 

[Lonewolf]

Tony, let's get this done then. Are you off 'set days' each month or can you pick and choose?


I can meet you half way, perhaps in Wales somewhere, I've heard Wales can be dry occasionally!

Most definitely I've been to wales a couple of times and it stayed dry
I can't recall over how many years though it took me  around Abereron is beautiful with the harbour.
I have friends I see regular who live in cilia-aeron Lampeter

If a meet comes off and you want me '08 GTR or the F700GS as a subject, again let me know, would Peak District suit as about 1/2 way or Wales?
Shift pattern is 4 on / 4 off so fair possibility of being free.

I've still to check my shifts, once done I'll post on here. It's been a bit busy today.

Good luck with  your new endeavour, Steve.  I think it's a very good idea!

I'm not surprised
