A side issue is when I went to China on a "Photo Tour" I took a series of photos on a causal basis not really expecting much, but my training over the years and the "Candid" training allowed me to be well above average with the images.  I thought the results were a one off and wondered if I world ever be able to repeat them. 
So I went back six months later to a different part of China and got better results. Then I went on to do two more trips to China, two trips to Turkey and then to Nepal.  All resulted in Photo exhibitions thro out NZ until I ran out of steam.

(Since writing this I have decided to carry on taking photographs to please myself and will from time to time publish new countries on my web site)

I decided in taking these photos I would take them for myself without any intention of trying to sell them and then I would not have to answer to anyone except myself.  Possibly I have published the photos on my web site to substantiate my claim of "photographer", but I will give this some more thought!!! 

The unfortunate thing is that when I prove to myself I can do a something I get bored and then have to move on to something else ...however having said that there are still a lot of countries I would like to travel to with my camera.
