A 6 month photographic challenge

6ish months ago when we were catching up with some friends in Twizel, New Zealand conversation drifted to how irregularly we take photos and a challenge was set; ‘Let’s take a photo a day for the next 6 months’.  That’s a lot of photos!

I started off with such good intentions, this is the photo that I took that February day;

It has been an interesting and fun challenge, making me look at my days a little differently.  Of course I have missed a lot of days, or taken a lot of photos on some of the days, and it is really nice to have some photos to look back on.  Time goes so fast, it is nice to stop and capture a wee moment of it, I have added 1 photo from each of the months below. Hope you enjoy them,

 The majority of the photos that I took in June, July & August were ‘work’ photos, the challenge with these has been learning how to catch our jewellery in the right light and setting.  I discovered the neighbours window makes a good prop for taking photos of earrrings.

ACTION and a CHALLENGE, liking the two in one approach.

I am very new at all this web business, SEO, etc and on a steep learning curve and loving it.  Our business is new and physical footfall is small, with more time than I would like on my hands I decided to create a facebook business page.  This page has become a great opportunity to share what Adolf & I have been doing with our friends and family who are not here in Korcula.

When we arrived back in Croatia 4 months ago our shop was a bar, negotiations on rent and other paper work ensured and here we are SEBA Dizajn. 

Our aim in opening this business was to have a space where Adolf can work and show anyone that is interested the work that is involved in creating filigree jewellery.  We wish to share our passion for this fine art and keep the filigree tradition alive.  Today there are very few people with the skills, training, expertise or patience that we are able to share.

 The SEBA family have been working as jewellers for over 500 years, there are many stories that I hope to share with you about the history and traditions of filigree.
