Category Archives: Personal Insight …and to all you who have complained about what a hard life I lead based on the pictures I just returned with from the Cook Islands, I can assure you, the weather is not always that kind. This (below) from an earlier shoot somewhere in the South Pacific (It lasted the entire week).  But I have a sense that the style which will define me as an artist (more so than a photographer I might add), is yet to come. It may involve mixed medium that marries photography with painting on large canvasses. It is this same sense that directs me to keep collecting images and to keep playing with different techniques, confident there will be a time when people will look at my work and say “that’s obviously David Kirkland’s photo.” To anyone who hasn’t seen this, take three minutes out of your life and click the following link. While it has little to do with photography, it’s the most uplifting clip I have ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLUPiAs20i4&feature=related  Gold woven into the carpet, faucets encrusted with gems, exquisite Italian marble flooring and timber parquetry, european art pieces and your own swimming pool with 24 hour butler service. Yep, this is what AUD$30,000 gets you if you’re staying a single night at the Emperor Suite at Empire Hotel and Country Club in the Sultanate... if you have made it this far and you’re interested in sharing your passion for travel photography or travelling the Asia Pacific region, I invite you to join my blog and come on a journey. |
