    Such a great story and I thank you for the effort I’m bringing it. What a selfless guy with a compelling story and what he said about our absolute need to open up is very important. We should all,listen to that advice. All the best David.

    Well done Dave...we often forget the "why's" of why we do photography and the benefit/enjoyment it gives us.

    • @DavidDixon
      @DavidDixon  6 лет назад

      Quite right Bill. It can be easy to distracted by gear and technicalities that you can forget why we do it in the first place.

      I have to admit I’m a little nervous about it - just hope it fits in with what you had in mind (my vague recollection is that I just rambled on a lot possibly talking nonsense). Anyway, looking forward to seeing the other videos and hearing the stories.

    Great vlog David fully agree with Andy's thoughts and views .it's good to talk .just recently I've helped a work colleague who was having a bad time and all I did was to stop and listen .I over the past few years have also had issues with stress and mental health and to this day i still suffer earlier this year I lost my grandfather my grandmother and also my dad . I've found that getting out in the fresh air and joining different clubs and talking I feel better .

    • @DavidDixon
      @DavidDixon  6 лет назад +1

      Quite right, Andy's message is simple yet so helpful. It's great to hear about people like yourself supporting exactly that. You should be proud. Sorry to hear about the loss to your family, it's never easy to deal with but to take steps towards looking after yourself is the best help.

    Super video David and great story from Andy. I myself and very many ex service colleagues in Northern Ireland with varying degrees of health issues physical and mental, including stress and anxiety through to PTSD belong to a charity funded photography group. The support by way of our peers out there wanting to listen, being to empathise with our plight and remembering that there are many suffering much more than ourselves. Keep these videos coming and get the message out there.

      It seems like it's becomes the first/live screening, and adds a live chat during that screening. It becomes a normal video after that.
