The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men. — Plato

about me

I’m David … 36 years old … Australian … thinker, trav­el­ler, philo­sopher, phil­an­derer … you know, the usual crap.

Notice: March 2009, I begin the jour­ney of a life time. A ’round the world’ trip begin­ning in Korea and end­ing in Cuba. This adven­ture will take up over a year of my life. Stay tuned for more details.

What’s this blog about??? It’s a journal of col­lec­ted thoughts and memor­ies. There’s also some future plans that I wish to remem­ber. So I’m using this blog as a way to keep my mind together.

If you want to know more about me, send me an email or a mes­sage of some kind. I’ll do my best to get back to you … and don’t worry, this page is only just being re-written. I’ll add more (includ­ing pic­tures) in the future.

Stay cool.

the teacher …

the pho­to­grapher …

Hi Dave, I’m hop­ing you’re superdave999 who put the exten­ded V soundtrack on Demonoid, I can’t down­load as it’s not recent enough — any­way of mak­ing it more cur­rent? Impressed you man­aged to find all the miss­ing tracks. Apologies if you’re the wrong Dave (enjoyed your Buddha piccs!)
Regards
Terry

Hi Dave. Another David Smeaton here from the UK but I am down in Gloucester. I haven’t vis­ited your site in some time and have obvi­ously missed a lot of com­ings and goings. I wish you well on your round the world trip, I hope you find what you are look­ing for. All the best. David

David,

I am excited to announce the start of a new pro­ject, Photographer Interview Series. Since you are on my short list of favor­ite pho­to­graph­ers, I wanted to con­tact you directly.

Here is a link to our first install­ment http://www.ilovephotoblogs.com/photographer-interview-series-p2-photography

Basically what I had in mind was to let each pho­to­grapher cre­ate and answer their own list of questions..probably in the range of 5 or so ques­tions. This could cover the basics, i.e., what do you spe­cial­ize in? where are you loc­ated? How long have you been in the business?…and any­thing else you would like to high­light about your­self. The whole focus of this site is to shine the spot­light on as many pho­to­graph­ers as possible.

In addi­tion to the inter­view, you can send me a link to a photo or two, to be included in the posting.

I would reserve the right to make slight edit­or­ial changes, such as gram­mar or formatting.

If you are still inter­ested in par­ti­cip­at­ing, I look for­ward to read­ing your post.

Still have ques­tions? Feel free to con­tact me.

Regards,

Rick
