Gladstone & Kingaroy since I have some photos

Well instead of watching terrible tv shows I'm going to write a bit about some of the recent locations I went, and some of the photos I've taken. More specifically, they are potential places for those of you that would like to have some nice artistic photos. The area I'm dealing with this week is in Queensland (most will be there for a while)... The first area was Gladstone, and Kingaroy since I have some recent photos of these.

Gladstone is a very industrial city north of Brisbane http://www.gladstonerc.qld.gov.au/ . We were quite taken aback by how industrail it was. It was great! I wish I had more time, as we were only passing through. But there were so many areas for industrial shots and ocean views it was great. There's also some good fishing out there apparently for those who aren't into photos (like that exists)... Here's some examples of photos from there http://spinmeright.redbubble.com/sets/104746/works/4415571-1-aluminum-factory-in-gladstoneeright.redbubble.com/sets/104746/works/4415571-1-aluminum-factory-in-gladstonegladstone and http://spinmeright.redbubble.com/sets/104746/works/4415564-1-train-tracks








The other was a smaller town called Kingaroy. I'm not kidding with the small town. We were visiting a small farmstay (great place for photos also- will write about that one later) http://www.bunyipsprings.com.au/ . But the thing about Kingaroy is it's a peanut growing town, so they have some nice historical museum (free) in the information building. Got some nice silo and peanut machinery photos from there. Here's a few images from there http://spinmeright.redbubble.com/sets/104752/works








So - I'm going to be writing about some other spots I've recently visited soon.

talk to ya'all then.

Cheers

Actually selling their work at on the web?

are there any sites that people are actually selling their work at on the web? I know a few flickr, redbubble, webshots, but not having too much luck. Any ideas?

Flying high with kites and photos

Been posting some Kite shots! Actually I'm trying to keep to a theme with my photos. Clouds. I reckon it's best to have a style that you stick with for a while. I love to be all over with my photos but I find it does make it hard to perfect anything. So for now it's clouds. I'm working with some of my kites I've bought recently. Here's the flickr site for now. I was using redbubble. I was albe to "Sell" a few but they rip you off if you don't sell alot. So I quit for the moment. I do like the site and if you can sell stuff it's a nice site. No real quotas and NO ADVERTISING! other then some of their own stuff. Great artwork to. I just didn't have enough sales (something I need to work on). Well. What are your thoughts on having a style and sticking with it? Also, any tips or critiques of the flickr site would be appreciated.

Ideas for book writing

I'm looking to see if anyone has Ideas for any book writing.

A few I've thought about recently were the following:

1. Children's book on a hundred and one ways to walk to school backwards.
2. Children's book on the best way to fry worms so Mum won't know.
3. Children's book on what to do with the wax in your ears.

you see, I'm having a bit of difficulty coming up with some unique ideas. Any constructive (somewhat tasteful - for age 10-15) would be helpful.

Cheers,

Mark
