Exhibition In Croatia!!!

So carrying on from the last post.....the reason Blur Magazine had emailed me this morning, and had been trying to get in touch with me, was because they wanted to invite me to exhibit the Highland Cow picture in thier Blur Photo 011, taking place from June 9 - July 3 in a central exhibiting gallery of the Croatian National Post Office, in Zagreb.

Big up the cow!! good work cow!

Published and didn't even know!!!

So I got an email this morning from a very friendly woman in Croatia representing a photographic magazine called Blur. Here's what it is - "BLUR magazine is an international e-magazine dedicated to artistic photography which is currently read in around 170 countries all over the world. It is published quarterly in English and Croatian edition and it is completely free of charge."
She has been trying to email for a while now but I've not been getting them annoyingly. Apparently "Highland Cow" (i'm sure by now you know what that looks like hehe) was published in their magazine last year! So here is the link for the online magazine, you need to download it but it's free and doesn't take hardly any time, so please have a look through and see my little pic with my name by it (yaaay) in there http://www.blur-magazine.com/hr/blur-magazine-20/

Twitter now aswell!!

So not only have I gone and put Dotty Gallery on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dotty-Gallery/166336376757239) , I've now gone all the way crazy mad insane and put it on Twitter too!!! http://twitter.com/#!/DottyGallery

It's all going mad now isn't it, it's off the chain!!! Well hopefully it goes mad anyway, and lots of people start seeing Dotty Gallery and all my pickie-tures!

Hornet Suprise!!

Found this Hornet dying in the living room, don't know what he was dying of but was pretty much gone and seemed to be going quietly without much suffering (apart from the death bit) so left him alone. But when the poor fellow was gone i decided to photograph it.

Went for the sweets because the colours sort of reminded me of a picnic, and how much things like wasps and bees love the colourful sweet flavours...i've never seen a hornet at a picnic, phew, but still...

So here's the picture/s i took. Enjoy!

NEW!! Cheaper, smaller prints on Dotty Gallery

Just in time for the Royal Wedding.....I have decided to offer all Open Edition prints (from the Digital & Medium Format Gallery) on Dotty Gallery, at A4 size for £30.

So regardless of the "main print size", be it A2 or A3+, they will all be available as unframed A4 prints. At the moment this is only an option for UK Mainland, but in the future I will change it so the offer is for everywhere.

So go go go!!! http://www.dottygallery.com/theimages-page.html

Oh it's not really got anything to do with the Royal Wedding, Sorry Willy & Kate

Dotty Gallery is on Facebook!!

So yes, kind of does what it says on the tin but still - I've finally gone through with it and put a page up on Facebook for Dotty Gallery. Still suspicious about the copyright and things so i'm watermarking everything Which i should do anyway whenever i post stuff on the internet). I know i know i'm like an old man paranoid of everyone and everything!!
So even though it's is of course pretty much exactly the same as here, go have a look and become a fan and tell your friends to become a fan and then everyone in the whole world will eventually be a fan!
