as A Very Social Christmas and A Happy Connected New Year By niels-henriksen.blogspot.com Published On :: Fri, 23 Dec 2011 18:44:00 +0000 I want to wish everyone, whether you celebrate Christmas or other seasonal festivities, a very happy holiday season and a great new year with many new opportunities for creative growth.From the title you may guess that I am talking about social media, which I am, but more about how I try to fit within that world. Taken in 1955 in Denmark at 4 years old and trying to be a grown-up I believe that, like many people, I seem to have those social connections that you need to link with other people. This works fine if I need to talk or connect with someone but I’m not sure how my articles about photography and other art works all fit within the new worlds of social media. How do I remain fresh and new with all these social outlets competing for the same information. I have My Camera World Blog this and there is a corresponding Facebook page FaceBook My Camera World There is also my art blog ' Niels Henriksen Artworks ' where I post articles about my artwork, whether a painting, fine art photography or other mediums. This is again is matched on Facebook with Facebook - Niels Henriksen Artworks Who says all self portraits have to be ugly. Well maybe they are. There is also just plain old me on Facebook at Niels Henriksen. This Facebook page was initially just to connect with people I talk to regularly but I find I do post mostly about my photography and paintings.I have also loaded some of my photographs on Niels Henriksen on Flickr Please take the time to connect and I'll connect back so I can see some of your photographs. My first studio work where I placed my model battle ships and tried to created a war scene. DOF and focus what's that. Then there’s my Linkedin page which is only visible if you are on linkedin and we have connected. Since we are heading back to San Miguel de Allende for 3 months in Jan I have contacted people about conducting walkabouts with some basic photography lessons included. More than 20 people have shown an interest. To help co-ordinate these walk-abouts and share photos I created a Facebook page ' San Miguel de Allende Photography Club '. Even at 12 years of age I had penchant for the abstract. Honestly this was not an accidental shot, at least that's what I say now. And just lately I've signed on to Goolge+ but as yet haven’t posted anything and that’s the dilemma. How do I remain somewhat fresh across all the media outlets? I just don't want to re-post the same material available on other sites. I don't mind using some of the same images if there is some contextual difference for the audience. This year I want to get a better handle on the whole social media culture and ensure that on each site there is something new and relevant to the reader. I sure would like to here how you are handling your multiple media streams with your content or any ideas about what would work. Please feel free to connect with me on any or all these social sites as I'm happiest when I'm connected with you. Niels Henriksen Full Article Portraits
as Fine Art Print – Boat in Grass on Beach By niels-henriksen.blogspot.com Published On :: Tue, 11 Sep 2012 17:45:00 +0000 This photograph is another image from my trip to Denmark. While the bicycle was taken in the large and historic city of Copenhagen. The image of the boat in the tall grass was taken on a secluded beach on the Isle of Mors which is situated within Jutland but is surrounded with salt water due to an opening on the west coast. Denmark, especially on the Jutland peninsula jutting up from Germany, is mostly composed of sand and therefore relatively flat and low lying. This creates wonderful long stretches of beaches and if there is not a lot of people traffic, then long swaying grasses reach down to the shore line. Being an inland sea, with a short distance to the main part of Jutland, there is little fetch for waves to develop and erode the shoreline.It was while I was doing my 8GB Walk-about Part 1 and 8GB Walk-about Part 2 as I called the article, that on a lonely stretch I found this overturned boat in the tall grass. It was the classic red color for boats but was definitely weathered and the bare wood of the hull showed through. I doubt it would ever sail again unless someone took the time to restore it.While the boat is an anchoring point in the photo supporting interest is the swaying grass which helps to create movement within the photograph. By keeping it to B&W then the colors don't compete for other interest within the image.This movement is hard to show in a web sized image but this is where a large print does justice to the sublet tones and movement of the grass.
