Celebrating the breath of vision for 20 years in the Canadian Rockies with the Visual Arts!

Hello Everyone! It's been a long time since I sat down and blogged to my hard earned fans. We have been working hard here with customer service and creating our new revolutionary work flow so our client's happily ever afters are not just unrealistic ideals but solid life long goals. This way our children and grandchildren will be able to celebrate their "Wedding Days" with the same elation as our 2010 clients! 

2009 brought to us the wind of change by many sources. Our service providers introduced many of these changes and in some cases we were surprised and for others we were already looking for resolutions to the hiccups that were being caused by "Digital Photography" over our 13 year experience with "Film". Operating in the "World's Finest National Park" and a "Unseco World Heritage Site" our "Legacy" has always been based on the theme of "Natural Pristine Beauty" that attracts thousands and thousands "Brides" and "Grooms" each and every year to seal their life long commitment. With such a theme one must truly be aware of his or her representation as an life long artist and the purity of the message of his or her heart felt prolific works. Art is not about "Money" it is about adornment and the celebration of our fragile yet granted existence on Earth. Art is not created to be thrown out like a disposal wrapper of a hamburger from a fast food restaurant. It is created to last for life times and to carry on messages of "Hope" and "Love".

From my first teachings in University I was educated that my career was serious flawed however my professors and superiors in the industry provided no real answers for such flaws over 20 years ago. I was taught to go with the flow and not create waves as we were only the artist using the media. We had no control of origin of the media and our focus should remain on our task at hand and that was creating absolutely lovely images for our clients.  

Now in 2010, I have been a successful artist since 1986, my images have been published in every means possible from; paper, rocks, walls, and my murals can still be seen on Banff Avenue today with great pride! This life long journey will all be in vain if the artist has no message to inspire others to transpire to be a greater Earthling than all his Avatars combined.  

Globally humanity is looking at a future without any "Happily Ever Afters" what so ever if the "PRO ACTION" of "Adventures in Photography Ltd." is  not enabled by other professional photographers in our vision for our future of our children and grandchildren. Currently the mass majority of professional photographers enable third party labs to complete the required work flow for their paying clients so the photographer can cover dates without having to employ full time staff to manage a studio of high overhead that would make packages unaffordable for the common consumer. These third party labs empower photographers to appear as individuals they are not without the support of the much more powerful third party lab. This allows Photographers to be almost stress free on location covering road dates as they find emotional comfort that their partner is impeccably providing the tail end part of the destination service.

This activity appears to be fruitful for the "Photographer", "Client", and most importantly the "Third Party Lab". Who in turn feels the financial comfort of hundreds and in some cases thousands of photographers enabling them for greater profit returns each year as we are educated to "Keep the Peace" and "Go with Flow" regardless if we know or not what we do is "Self Defeating" in the long run which is the world of our children and grand children have to endure. 

Canadians consume more water and earth than any other nation per capita on the planet. We are the richest of all the consumers and our land mass makes us who we are. We are some of the most intelligent on the planet and we have more of the most precious nonrenewable resources than most countries that have ten times our population. However, when you add a country with the population size of Canada to the Earth every 6 months you will understand that the Earth's forest can not flip the ecological bill when we only have 5% of the existing original old growth forest that was present at the start of the industrial revolution just 100 + years ago. 

Adventures in Photography Ltd. takes part in Canada's One Tonne Challenge every day and only promotes the use of tree free papers to the preserve  our forest for all future generations of all species on Earth to take pleasure in. At least 95% of all the paper used today for photography comes from nonrenewable resources. More than 1.3 billion trees each year are cut down in North America for use of Paper and the consumption of paper has increased 400% in the last 40 years. Many of these trees will never be replaced in our current life time if we all don't become accountable of harmful traditions we have embraced in the last 160 years. This defines on our current road of "Progress" it is possible Canadians will not have "Old Growth Forest" for their Grand Children to enjoy. This is a "Horrific Symbol" created by a country who's pride is a leaf of a tree displaying the heart of our nationality. On the average, each, and every Canadian consumes 4 trees a year in the use of paper alone. 3 trees produce enough oxygen to keep one human being alive. The air humans breath should have 16% Oxygen for proper function of the brain. In Japan their are regions where Air has less than 1% Oxygen. Each day these regions are only growing in size.

In the beginning of our "Life on Earth" we first discover the "Free Gift" of "Light". This "Lght" is created by the rhythm of hearts pumping oxygen to fuel the activity of our cells. Enabling our eyes to see the world that lights of our existance. The one fruit plants create for Earthlings enjoyed by all is not the "Apple" or "Cherry" it is the "Life" bearing "Oxygen" that enables all the unique species that work to make "Life on Earth" the "Festive Occasion" it is meant to be for "All" of "Creation" to take part in.
