Capirani Photography: July 2014

Recently I've been uploading my most recent photos and designs to my Flickr Photostream so now you can see some of my best works there. Since Flickr does not allow using their site for direct selling of photography or other items, you can still contact me by coming here.

The past couple of weeks I have been taking a free online email workshop given by art gallery owner Jason Horejs who owns Xanadu Gallery in Scottsdale, AZ. Jason Horejs is also the author of the book Starving to Successful. So far the e-course has been very interesting and will hopefully teach me things I need to learn to possibly show my photography (and maybe my paintings) in an actual gallery somewhere. But even if it doesn't, this course is helping me learn more about myself, and that there are many, many others out there striving to do work that someone will someday buy. I am expecting to learn more about how to present myself and my work in the best possible light I can.

Okay, just a quick example of some of the photography you can see on my Flicker Photostream.

About Dreams on Wheels

Capirani Photography is the culmination of a lifelong dream to be a photographer. When this dream began I was still in Junior High. Gradually the dream evolved into my wanting to be a fiction writer as well as a photographer. Portrait photography was never an interest of mine, unless you would get the subject of the photo outside in natural surroundings rather than in a studio.

Now after all the years of college, marriage, and raising a family, the time has come to make these dreams happen. I have the time. I have the cameras at least to get started. And I have the wheels.

Wheels? Capirani Photography is unique in that much of the photography is done from the vantage point of being seated, whether on my front porch steps, in a car, or in my wheelchair. While I did not actively pursue my dreams when I was younger, my time for making dreams come true now comes at a time when I need a little more help than I had planned. You won't find photos from me after climbing mountains or traversing down into canyons or into caves.

I am here to prove that you don't have to be 100% able-bodied to make your dreams come true, nor do you have to be able to walk and climb steadily to be a nature and landscape photographer. Looking at the world from a lower eye level could help us all see life differently. This is my goal.

I hope you enjoy my work here. You will find, not only photos, but many, many graphic designs, or abstracts. Abstract photography has been fascinating to me ever since my first encounter with the World Wide Web. It has only been in the past few months that I have been able to really focus my time and my talents on creating graphic designs. While I am still somewhat unsure of where I can sell my designs or who might be interested in purchasing prints, the creative process intrigues me. You might say it is quickly becoming an addiction of mine.

If you have not found them already, scroll back up to the top of this page to find the tabs of photos and graphics I have here to offer you. Please feel free to comment on what you see here. Email me at aworkinprogress2@yahoo.com to contact me personally, or if you would like to purchase any prints. Simply mouse-over any photo or graphic and look below on the browser to see the name or number of the one you are interested in. The name or number will pop up and be the last part of the URL you see in that pop up.

You can read more about me in the tab above called About Capirani Photography.
