A Road Less Traveled
I’ve reached a crossroads with my work. Actually, I’ve passed the crossroads, having decided which route I’m going to take, and I’m a few yards down the new track.
It’s exhilarating and at the same time a little scary. Leaps of faith always are.
It’s also tremendously liberating. It feels something like this, or at least I imagine it does:

So, welcome to the new blog, where from now on I’ll be covering all aspects of my work, regardless of whether it concerns corporate commissions or private assignments. They’ll all have one thing in common: a documentary approach. That’s the plan, anyway. That’s the road I’ve chosen.
Forgive me grabbing a limelight spot – being the first to comment. I reckon this’ll be a historic blog, or rather a blog which people will look back to in years to come for insight.

Water, spray, salt and fin
gods grant me light exposure
cause if it all come out into the open
thank goodness for writers’ block…
