Steemit is Full of Yumminess and Healthy Nutrition
My very good adequate friend @kamalamacan introduced me to the Steem platform. I've had a good look around and am blown away by all the cool and beautiful people using Steemit and creating amazing content. I'm here to balance the equation a bit :P
I should mention @kamalamacan got here via @condra who is either a dolphin sized whale or a whale sized dolphin, I'm not sure. I'm new here and the lingo still escapes me.
The About Me Section:
- Most importantly, I'm a husband to the beautiful Maria and a daddy to the equally beautiful twins Dean & Layla. While I share 50% of the blame for her pregnancy, Maria is 100% responsible for their cuteness and cuddlyness. All they're gonna get from me is a natural instinct for sarcasm and political incorrectness. Here they are getting their first ever bass lesson.
- I'm a hobbyist photographer, which will account for almost all of my posts here for the short term. I stress on the hobbyist bit. I'm open to (and welcome) my images being shredded to bits. I started learning photography solely to takes nice shots of my kids as they grew, but it took on a life of it's own. So did the kids.
- I used to be a bass player. I'd like to say "a musician who plays bass" but I really wasn't a good musician. I was just blessed with very strong fingers and an ability to blend into the background. I could have chosen either to play bass or become batman, but I made a poor life choice.
- I'm a qualified civil engineer. When I qualified, there were no jobs but I managed to secure a low level position with a construction company, who immediately gave me full engineering responsibilities, and maintained a low level salary. Health is, indeed, my only wealth.
- I'm Irish and still here.
I'm very much looking forward to getting to know the community and making good friends here. Thanks for reading!

Wow, love your work! MOAR!!! Love the toilet paper dress and the film dress. Very cool concepts. Love the blue rim light on the first photo. Lighting on the 4th image feels a bit harsh but the composition is very interesting, with the arm leading your eye to her face, and then her eyes leading off camera. Lovely movement in that one.
I feel indifferent towards the last photo. Technically well done but I feel like I want to nudge her 2 clicks to the right and 2 clicks down, if that makes sense. To give her a bit more head space. But hey, If you look at the images I upload I'm not much of a photographer :) I'm really looking forward to seeing more of your stuff. Following for sure .
Hey @moderndragon thank you for the kind words! It's great to recieve some commentary & I certainly agree about the last shot...there were far better images from that shoot I should have used, but the kids were looking for their dinner and it was a race against time lol. I'll post some of them soon :) This is my first year of really trying hard to make something of my own garden, so I'm looking forward to reading your future posts. Teddy's JCVD impersonation is faultless ;)
Hehe, he's an amazing cat! I'm looking forward to doing more posts of him as well as sharing some of my garden transformations, small as they are :)
Can't wait to see more of your work!
Hello !I am @minnowhelp, nice to meet you Colmedwardsphoto,

With this upvotes you can earn some money here, if they provide a value. That's what I am testing for new Steemians !
Im my session#1 I tracked amongs I tracked amongst other users the upvote boost of @livingwaters, he boosted his post value to $5.18 , which was $5.09 more than before the booster upvote !
And that with just an investment of $1.96 !
So if you want to see the results of my work, feel free to follow me @minnowhelp

Took me a while @condra, so nothing new there. Turns out permanent marker don't taste all that delicious :(
Do you know the reason why your bass guitar has 4 strings?
@gikitiki my bass has 6 strings. And my amp goes up to eleven (not kidding)!
6 strings!!! That one is designed so that 5 can break. :-)
Haha. If all 6 broke, it would sound a lot better, trust me ;)
Bonnie Raitt told me they one.
For real? Bonnie Raitt!
Many years ago, I was working the stage at a music festival. I was standing backstage with her before she went on.

You say "Hobbyist photographer... well you are really humble, your selection is so professional and advanced.....
Thanks for the kind words and welcome @cesmak. My wife is the makeup artist, she does all the hard work, I just push buttons :) We're planning Italy for our holidays next year, and after seeing your post, Vicenza looks like a great place to go!
You are welcome to Italy !
Probably a mistyping i think you mean Venezia (venice)... Vicenza is a good city but not so extraordinary as Venice... :)
Why not both :D
well i think that, at this point, to choose another near city, better Verona, with his open arena and the wonderful classic music opera and ballets.

Welcome to steemit community...
What a wonderfully written intro you got here.
Do read my below recipes to have a successful steemit experience.
RECIPES FOR SUCCESS
Be yourself, originality matters a lot. Write and submit quality content at least three times weekly.
You can get into arguments but without being disrespectful to people to avoid down votes
upvote and follow posts that interest you...as well as people who upvote and follow you. Reciprocity matters. However, be careful not to exceed 20 upvotes per day as doing that will begin to deplete ur steem power. This is important.
spend sometime to comment on other people's posts daily.
Give quality feedback to peoples comments.
Observe this rules and success will follow you. Wishing you best of luck in your steemit activities.
I'm @eurogee
Thank you @eurogee. thanks for the advice. Hope to have the "difficult 2nd post" up later :)
An awesome combination, musician and photographer. May I say that your photographs look great, my favorite being the lady dressed up in toilet paper, how very creative. If you are looking for tips to help you get started, the link is below.
Spreading Positivity

You are most welcome my friend. Steemit is a very supportive community and most Steemians are helpful. This is how we can all grow the community.
You are welcome my friend. I hope you will enjoy blogging here and meet other users who are just as helpful and supportive.
Indeed, in the short time here everyone has been very welcoming, it's a great community. Fingers crossed I can write some reasonable blogs and make my contribution :)
I agreed that it is a great community here. We are all unique and we have our unique experiences and view points. So just get to writing first and worry about the rest later. The feedback that you receive on your writing will give you some indication how you are doing.
