I'm glad to see that winter has hit in other parts of the world.(it is beginning to resemble Hoth Ice Planet from Star Wars here in WY) Once again you have produced a tender shot!
I may have not been clear. My personal work is exactly that. Personal to me. The photos are what I feel, and they are an extension of what is Craig. I even have passion for the commercial/editorial work that I do. Maybe what I am trying to say is that photography is a driving force in my life. The work can be critically analyzed 'till we are all blue in the face, but the fact remains that this is Craig Blank's work, and few things make me more proud. Showing my work, and having it critiqued by AD's or whoever, is what helps me grow as an artist and a human being. It is all well and good taking photos that you like, but one of the few truths in photography is "show the world"
Don't worry, all photos are well archived, and will be with us for years to come. Even though I am (almost) digital. I worry about those who delete their shots "in the camera" Who can say that 50 years from now they wouldn't be good photos?
