the seedling

Hello! I hope your Sunday is unravelling the way you want it to and that the sun is shining where you are. I'm so happy you come over here to read and I'm grateful for all you wonderful friends I'm making through this space, it's bringing so much into my life.

For the moment I've got a little adventure on my mind, something Maddie sowed the seed to and now it's sprouting dainty little green leaves in my head and just won't give up growing. You've got to see her place - it's the most magical, delightful and inspiring corner with poetry, beautiful words and amazing photos of her very own magic.

The little seedling is the thought of selling my photos as prints - what do you think? I was hoping you could help me out a little and decide which photos, if any, might be suitable for it - would you do that for me? If I should be so lucky and have lurkers reading - then do feel very welcome to say something too if you'd like. Or not - I know what it's like to be shy :).

I've put together a set called possible prints? on flickr and it would be wonderful if you'd like to leave little comments on which photo/s you would like to see as a print. I'd love to send all of you a print as thanks, but as that is out of my reach for the moment I'd like to send the first three to comment one. I rarely get more than three comments anyway, so I'm hoping this is fair. :)

This photo above is one I found in the backwaters of iPhoto that has never been uploaded to flickr and I kind of like it so I'm including it in my possible prints - what do you think of it?

Looking forward to hearing what you say about it all - hoping you will say something, fingers crossed! In any case, I'm thoroughly enjoying myself which is the main thing. Ha, to think I am almost a real photographer! :)

Greetings Caroline - don't *think* you are a photographer - you ARE a photographer! :o) I think it is a wonderful idea for you to sell your photos and share with the world what you've captured. I personally love the series of flowers with the frost on them - total magic. I am also partial to any in your series called "walks" - you captured the beauty of your surroundings.

Caroline you are indeed a photographer and
a very poetic one at that ~

the photo below is my all time favorite
as it is just luminous in it's
pale beauty ~ and my other favorites are
of Duncan kicking leaves and the frost
ones (all of them ) are stunning ~
It takes 15 photos for one page on
etsy so I think it would be nice
to get 12 - 15 photos and it only'costs
20 cents to list each one and
I am going to be your first customer:)

Hurry up ~ get listing!

Oh! Lucky me, number three! Yes please, do start a photo print business, yours are lovely, they are what drew me in.

PS. don't ever doubt that you're a real photographer, truly. xo

Oh wonderful! Thank you girls!! :) Your kind words have made my day entirely and I will be so happy sending a little thank you your way. I will email you to find out which print you would like and where to send it to.

Though I suspect I know already which print Maddie wants. It's my favourite too I think. And you will be my first customer no doubt Maddie - thanks for the encouragement! :)

I agree with the other girls, go for it! I think you should include the one with the onion seller too :-) Maddie described your style perfectly, poetic.

I think this is a great idea. I am headed over to flickr now:)
