Encouraginng each other to be assertive is something that is very important to me! Relying on others can be very frustrating. People using their own initiative can often achieve far more. Self belief is important! We llive in a town where this already happens so much . It will be natural for us as to do this more and more..

Great news
Another very creative photographer has come to Ulverston. Worth spending some time enjoying his photographs and musing on what might come next . .
One of those people that wait and wait and wait . . . . . . .for exactly the right moment to make the 'ordinary' look special.
People like this get us to stop, look, enjoy and take strength from 'stuff' that is staring us in the face . . .
Often we don't notice it.
I'm reminded of Ansel Adams who's photography I got to know when in California.
Rob Sutherland has just bought a camera that he's very pleased with . . . .
People like this are the life blood of the positive and forward looking side of our town !
He joins Ulverston photographers like Chris Thorp and Allan Wilson that we are getting to know more and more.
In other creative fields - sculpture and architectural metal worker Chris Brammall who has contributed much to the town with work at the rope walk, the start of the Cumbria Way in the Gill and much more (not enough is my comment) - and we choose to spend thousands on . . . that imposter Stan Laurel !
When will we start living in the year 2009?
We have a chance to look to the future with somewhere like this with another very creative Ulverstonian - Gary Robinson who will help put life into the Roxy - if we let him.

Excellent photos.
I agree. We need to do more to promote the talent we have instead of being trapped in our own cliched ideas of what tourists think Ulverston should be.
