I was contacted Wednesday by an organization requesting permission to use my picture of the Indiana State Fair ferris wheel, that I had posted on my blog. They want to use it on the front of a brochure! How cool is that!
What is also exciting for me is that I had just signed up and paid for a photography class Wednesday morning. I did it with fear and trepidation. I enjoy photography, it is a fun hobby for me, but the thought of taking it to the next level is kind of scary. Getting this request on the very same day was a wonderful confidence booster just when I needed it. I feel like this is confirmation that maybe, just maybe I can do something more with my photography.
Oh yes it's a sign. Just look at that shot? It is amazing how you captured the whole ferris wheel with the wonderful skies as backdrop above and the colorful Fair surroundings below. Go for it girl.
ReplyDeleteHello Robin,
ReplyDeleteI followed you to your blog from a comment you left on Pat's back porch musing on her beautiful cloches....I thought I was the only one in blog land that did not have a cloche.
Congrats on your picture----that is awesome but the picture is awesome....I loved it....I can see why they want to use it....so you start your portfolio.
I read one of your posts that your dad is going through chemotherapy....I will add him to my prayer list.
hugs

And you thought we were all just being nice to you telling you over and over again how wonderful your photographs are??? Congratulations Robin. I am so happy for you. Next time "sell" it to them.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Robin! you do take great photos, I don't think you even need any photography classes.
ReplyDeleteWay to go Robin!Great things are ahead for you.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,Ruth
That is exciting, Robin! But this is such a great picture, it's no wonder they want to use it. I don't know what other skills or tips you will pick up in photography class, but you are already so talented that you'll be the head of the class!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Robin! That is very exciting. I enjoy your blog in large part due to your wonderful photography! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteGood job Robin!!!
ReplyDeleteCoincidence? I think not. That is terrific.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful confirmation to the next steps you're taking. I know about the "bit scary" - kinda like being at the top of that ferris wheel :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Robin.
Yeah for you! I hope the class is fun and wonderfully full of knowledge for you...great picture, Kim
ReplyDeleteRobin, This is the best! You are a talented photographer, we've seen your work and love it! Have fun with the class... gail
ReplyDeletewoohoo!! Your picture definitely makes *me* want to go and have fun at the fair :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, the picture is amazing. You have talent, enjoy the photography class. A local photgraphy meet up group has just started near us, I'm thinking of joining perhaps they have one near you to join.
ReplyDeleteIt is actually a very cool photograph! Perfect for a cover... congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Saturday, Robin...

A big congrats to you, how exciting!! Wonderful photo you captured with perfect skies behind the ferris wheel -- I can sure see why they would want to use it. :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to know how your class goes, Robin. I'll be in touch with you. I've been wanting to take at least an intro course but finding the time is a challenge.
ReplyDeleteI wish you lots of fun and new ideas!

Congratulations! I can see why they want to use it....it is an awesome photo.
ReplyDeletewow that is awesome you go girl!!! I love your pics and blogs
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous Robin!!! I think it's a sign too. You know you have talent when you have something like this happen without ever taking a class. Congrats on the good news.
ReplyDeleteAll of us who visit your blog rejoice over this news for you. Congrats and we look forward to seeing the brochure. I'm not at all surprised.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULAIONS, Robin! How exciting! I'm not surprised though. I don't know if I've ever seen more beautiful photography on a garden blog than I see here on a consistent basis. You are one of the best, that's for sure.
