My other blog



















I write another blog, or rather, post photographs on a blog uncluttered with politics and the like. I've titled it, "Pretty Ordinary Things".
The reason I've mentioned it now, is because I received a very encouraging comment from an Australian artist who somehow stumbled across Pretty Ordinary Things, liked my photo of a cabbage tree flower, and said so. It's surprising what praise will do.
Here's his comment (spell-checked). I've copied it here to counter some of the negative criticism I've been attracting of late, from the dairy industry :-)

"I definitely would not call this ordinary. These photos are beautiful and very talented. Even the shadow from the dog is brilliant. Greetings from Australia. Thank you for sharing."

Magnetic Island Artist Edward Blum.

I agree... I love your photos Rob but cringe that you are a John key lover .. love and hate are =

separate your talent with your obsession and you will get more hits

Good point Sue. In fact, I have little feeling for the guy. He plays his part and is but one of many bound by the ideology that I don't support. It is fun though, to use the figure as a focus for amusement - the mincing, the 3-way-handshake...
I'll try.
