WANT TO PLAY IN THE 'RAIN?
Inviting someone special to join ActiveRain.com ...

invitation and envelopeFor quite some time, I have been following Marlene Hielema from Canada on YouTube.  She is an excellent teacher and knows a lot about photography.  Marlene offers a freecourse online in photography. I decided to invite Marlene tojoin us in ActiveRain. Her photography posts are so clear and all of us could benefit by learning from her. She speaks in a poetic way that is still very clear. An example? "Light is like the paint of photography and the camera is the paint brush."

Today I noticed something I had never noticed before. 
I had often thought the music on her video introductions reflected her lively personality.  I saw that Marlene credited the composer of her music, Gabriel Zurek.  So I decided to invite the composer also.  In addition, I will be communicating with him about commissioning a short piece of music for my own videos!

Dear Marlene -
Please consider joining ActiveRain.com. We are an online community of over 220,000 professionals in real estate or related careers. As a subscriber to your YouTube channel, I believe that our community will benefit from your participation. You are a clear and informed teacher. I learn something new each time I enjoy listening to your videos. AR is an amazing group of cutting-edge people who share their wealth of knowledge every day on their blogs via their posts and photos.
I hope you will join.
Have a happy day -  
Lynn   (your student!)

If a picture is worth 1000 words, how much is a video worth? You decide after you see how easy it is to watch and learn from Marlene.
Have a happy day -
Lynn

I hope she joins us and gives us lots of photo tips. We use to have a member like that, and I miss the advice.

Hey Lynn, Thanks for reaching out!

I'm involved in far too many groups and online forums right now to handle another, but you're welcome to keep in touch and connect with me and what's happening at ImageMaven on Facebook, Google+, Twiiter or YouTube. I'm mostly on FB and YT though and I publish a new photography related YT video every week.

If you have any specific photography questions, those would be the places to find your answers, and if you don't see what you're looking for - just ask!
