We were really rushing this morning with the walk, chores, poop and garbage patrol, clean up, peel potatoes and prepare meat, veggies for Igor's arrival before 10am. I had sent him our location on WhatsApp so he arrived without problem on a Kawasaki 650 he had borrowed which we brought inside for safety.
Igor and I hit it off so well and he is not a picky eater either so we had an awesome day together. I showed him all the fun (problems) I have with uploading to RedBubble every day and he just shook his head at the end. It truly is incredibly complicated but I have 13 years experience with those jokers. Fine Art America is so much easier but a person must pay $30 a year to do it right and sales come slowly until a person has established a large portfolio. I have over 4,000 photos on both sites... I think Igor is amazing to have been able to upload so many photos on his own without instruction, but there is so much more to do to try to generate sales.
We each took a couple of shots in the backyard and then we came in to pig out on pork tenderloin, potatoes and corn.
Then I had him show me his methods for getting such beautiful landscapes like he has on RedBubble now - https://www.redbubble.com/people/klrider/shop
He uses mainly Lightroom and a form of PhotoShop to get such amazing colours in his artworks. I wish him well with sales for his awesome landscapes.
Then I had him send me a spectacular photo of his while he showed me his method of improving it. His methods are really something that I need to learn better, although, when I had my chance at it, using my methods, I am certainly not unhappy with the results. We learn from each other and he was really impressed with the options allowed in Smart Photo Editor. We had fun.
After he left and I cleaned up dishes, etc, a nap was dearly required.
In the evening vet John Faber Rojas came but couldn't stay long because he had his father and brother in the car... I had decided to donate to him my Canon T7i rather than let it languish in a closet. I felt that it was better that it be used by someone who would genuinely appreciate it, and use it. John was overwhelmed again, as he can now pass the Sony that I gifted to him down to his oldest son.
I wanted John to have the camera with a little time to practice before we go with Igor on a photography outing on Friday. That should be fun!
I hope you enjoy the pictures. They uploaded backwards, again.... Grrrrrr
That was the day’s excitement.
