Photos sold!

I'm buzzed at the moment!!

With the help of my beautiful and hardworking wife, I've just learned that I have sold three images to Tasmania Tourism. The photos were taken on our holiday there just over a year ago. There's also the possibility that they'll want to buy more of the photos I took, since they chose the three from only ten that were sent to them.

This is one of the pics that they bought:



You can see the other two at these links:

Hopefully there will be more of the same to come in the near future :)

My wishlist!

I love giving gifts to friends, and seeing them enjoy opening their birthday present. I don't always like trying to figure out exactly what to get. Sometimes it's hard to come up with the idea, sometimes it's hard to know if the choice is the right one. Usually I end up asking someone who knows them really well, like their partner. I've been asked for advice on gifts for my wife many times.

Well I've decided to make it easy for everyone else when chosing gifts for me, and made an online wishlist!! The Froogle (by Google) wishlist thingie was an option in my blogger profile, so I thought I'd give it a go. One problem is that all of the stores are in the US, but if people think early enough, they might even want to try ordering something :) Alternatively, the list can act as a source of inspiration of the kind of thing I like.

If you want to take a look at it, click on the title of this post.

I know it might seem like wishful thinking, and maybe a bit presumptuous, but frankly I wish all my friends would do it :) It solves a problem, and since it's anonymous for anyone browsing it's not putting any pressure on anyone to actually do anything about it! Also it's a handy reminder to me what I might want to buy should I ever come into a bit of spare cash hehe.

Whatdoya reckon?

I'm gonna give this a go again :)

I've decided that I'd like to practice my writing skills more often, and since it's likely to be a lot of random thoughts and experiments, I figured a blog is as good a place as any to do that. I also want to FINALLY put something at the http://neil.creek.name address which points to all my other bits and pieces, so rather than giving folks the (longer) address to my gallery, I can simply give them this address and tell them to click on the gallery link on the right.

I have no idea what will end up here, or how regularly I'll add stuff, but I want to try and make it at least interesting enough to make it worthwhile reading if you happen to stop by. :)
