The Art of Travel

The Art of Travel, LaMode Magazine, editorial blurb

Hands up who misses boarding a flight bound for warmer weather and sunnier skies? I know I do at the moment. When the season starts to really turn into what it is supposed to be I always get the urge to want to jump on a plane and elope somewhere 10-15 degrees hotter than where I base myself, that base is Sydney, which isn’t all that bad by the way, but just like every creative the key to being creative is to continue to change your environment and move forward with fresh ideas and to try and push the barriers that you may come up against.

So that is why I love to get away when I can, where I can, to exactly to do that. So, to be a successful creative. In my eyes, I feel that. You always. Must look to evolve as a person. Which will in turn. Make your art. More interesting. It doesn’t matter if you are a visual, literal, or verbal person the key to any eye-catching piece is to have a point of view.

So, when I made the effort to drive all the way up to The Entrance, NSW which by the way is about 100km’s north of Sydney, I chose somewhere that I haven’t been before and wanted to explore for the first time with fresh eyes to capture something new and bold. I would like to think that I have done that with my video that I have shot and the stills that I have created.

Enjoy, the Art of Travel.

Watsons Bay and Manly

Watsons Bay to Manly and Back

The word “change” is something that not everyone likes and will always not conform too.

Some of us are happy to do it if it will benefit us and some of us hate it. Most of the time when we get into a routine and then have to change it, we sometimes don’t always like it due to the fact that we are so use to the one that we have. And that the new routine will seem weird and we have too work hard within our self’s to make it work for whoever or whatever we are doing it for.

So what I am getting at is, is change good? Or is it necessary to evolve so we can move forward as a group of people or stay where we are. Interesting question isn’t it, we have to change so we can move forward, a lot of people don’t like it especially the older generation, they are very set in there ways and don’t like to move outside of their little bubble so for the older generation to change their old habit’s into new ones it is going to be a tad harder than the younger generation who are a little bit more forgiving in that area to make change happen for the better of the good.

This all may seem a bit confusing but if you read the last book that Steven Hawkings wrote named “Brief answer to the big questions” This blurb will make more sense.

As for this video editorial, I wanted to change the way we see and read editorials online. Well at least for this one anyway.

Enjoy Watsons Bay to Manly and Back

Gold Rush

This may will be the last swim editorial for LaMode Magazine for a while, I can’t travel overseas yet so the chances of another swim editorial gracing the pages till next season are very unlikely.

But till then you can enjoy what we plan on publishing in the future. Speaking of the future, with more restrictions coming off on Monday the 29th of March, if seems like things are getting back to normal. Which I don’t have to tell you how wonderful it is, we can stand and drink, dance, sing and not have to wear a mask. And what’s more out-door gatherings have increased to 200 which means in the near future we can have outdoor concerts, outdoor concerts is the one thing I am most looking forward too.

But there is something else we can look forward to and that is the Vaccine, we all know that is going to be one way we can get heard immunity not just for Australia but the world over.

With Australia getting back to the way it was one year ago, we can only look forward to what the future holds for us? Traveling overseas is one thing that is on top of my list, being able to shoot content and photographs that don’t have an Australian theme to it, or another way of looking at it is something with more than Australian Culture in my imagery.

Speaking of Culture, look out for the next Culture editorial that will be solely, motion and a few words like per usual.

But till then enjoy the “Gold Rush” featuring the ever divine Madyson.

"From Dusk"

I think we all know why online shopping has taken off in the last 12 months, so I don’t have to harp on about why we are sitting at home and ordering online.

But what the subject of this blurb is about.

Is why we buy clothes and the other bits and pieces that we may use once or twice, and only wear them a few times and then discard into the “I have wore that twice bin and I can’t wear it anymore” in which the clothes are now deemed useless.

So why do some of us do this??

I can tell you why we have that obsession or should I say bad habit. And the obsession’s are called: Afterpay and Zippay.

Anyone who lives in Australia will know what these two brands mean.

These two names are a god send and a curse all rolled into one. Just for the record I have both. And use them when I can, just so I don’t have to make a bulk payment that will hurt my bank account.

I am sure anyone else who uses these useful institutions will back me up 100% that they not only save you money and convenience but also builds up your credit rating so that you can move onto buying bigger and better things that are a tad more useful than clothes and a gadget to play with. That bigger thing is a house, appliance’s or tools that you may need for your business to help you make money, just to name a few.

The point I am making here is that I love money just like everyone else but if I had to make a decision to walk away from everything and wine back the clock to when we lived off the land, and you know what, I think I would!

It would make things so much easier and make life more straight forward.

Some food for thought for you??

So to finished off this blurb, I leave this thought with you: work to survive or work to play??

Enjoy “From Dask”
