Firstly I want to thank you all for sticking with me on my journey. I want to thank everyone who has supported me with likes comments and shares on my posts.
I want to thank everyone who purchased our products from prints to calendars and Christmas cards. I couldn’t do this full time with out you all and the amazing support you give me. So thank you from the bottom of my heart.
We are going into 2025 and I hope that you will all continue to support like you did in 2024. And before the new year celebrations start I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all the very best for the year ahead may it bring to health and happiness with lots of love and joy.
Well it’s been a year! So much has happened in 2024! A lot of good and a number of bad things.
The end of 2023 I ended up in hospital and that got sorted out so we thought but sadly in February 2024 everything got worse and I ended up back in and things started to take a big turn for the worst.
I had sepsis and they found a number of nodules on my pancreas and also a big mass. As you know with anything this comes with a number of tests and if you’re in the UK A long wait for results. On talking with the consultant he told me that this could be that dreaded word cancer.
I’ve had many tests and hospital visits and to date I’m still not sure what the outcome is. All I know is I’m getting worse, in constant pain and have had to take a few steps back from the day to day photography that I love. Anyone one who is self employed will know this is a kick to the teeth at best of times but I’ve been trying to keep creating works and selling my products to pay for things needed to keep going. While the uncertainty continues and they start to help me. Even if it’s worst case. It’s going to be a fight. And something I hope to one day I come out the other side of but for now it’s day at a time, and on bad days bed rest.
If you would like to help support me at this time I have a ko-fi page set up for people to buy my image downloads. Or if you just want to tip me with the price of a coffee as support to me and my business that’s completely up to you and any one that does I will be eternally grateful.
On a brighter note I’ve managed on my good days to get out and get some print worthy images. In the last year I’ve seen over 20 of my images in the local news papers ! Seen it posted in publications and show stands too. Also had many people asking to purchase prints. And this will never get old but with each I’m always so grateful. I get such a feeling it’s hard to explain but it’s sheer gratitude!
Here are a couple of image that made the local news papers (what I can find)
There are more but the images are on my back up drive and not to hand on my phone where I’m currently writing this post 😉
So the other good things was the sale of my calendars I made a limited edition and a very limited run number and all but two have sold. So if you would like one please let me know first come first served just send me an email to adrianday@photographer.net
So I won’t hold you up too much longer but I do want to say once again a big thank you to everyone who has continued to support me and my full time photography journey. I love each and everyone of you and I hope that you will continue supporting
Happy New Year all the best for 2025
Make it a safe one
