My Personal Dna Report: Advocating Creator

I'm also co-admin of Chasing Murakami Worlds a group related to one of my favorite writer "Haruki Murakami, so please join us if you share the same passion.

12 years ago I had a F90 and did a lot of familly picture. Then for long time didn't touch a camera, until recently where I got a new D50 and more recently a D300. This stream will be the spatio-temporal representation of my second birth. My teacher and guru will be a talented Italian photographer and friend Eolo Perfido

I also put recently, my personnal photo web site. It's still in the process of being assemble, but this first version is pretty close to what I want. This site is composed of photos I like and represent themes I experience with. To visit follow www.smallstudio.eu/index.html

"The real trouble with this world of ours is not that it is an unreasonable world, nor even that it is a reasonable one. The commonest kind of trouble is that it is nearly reasonable, but not quite. Life is not an illogicality; yet it is a trap for logicians. It looks just a little more mathematical and regular than it is; its exactitude is obvious, but is inexactitude is hidden; its wildness lies in wait"
G.K. Chesterton

I am available for freelance assignments: portraiture, promo and fashion photo shoots, events coverage and photojournalism.

Sally Ghally says:

"Richard is an artist in the true sense of the word. Not only is he an outstanding photographer, but an impeccable photo-editor and an inspirational writer.

I can't thank you enough for the many gifts you have given me... the PRO account... the beautiful photo-editing (which by the way is a big hit thanks to you)... and the constant encouraging words and faves. But most of all, I thank you for being an amazing inspiration.
Your photostream is my daily eye-candy :)))"

"dadaikido ... what a brilliant artistic talent! . . .
i remember the first image i ever saw from him... it made me gasp.
it is called "Lava Snow" ..and, to me, it looked like the wing of a raven shadowing an exquisite zen painting of fresh snow.
it was an epiphany..
it was like 'seeing' a haiku poem.

dadaikido's photostream is many-splendoured ... full of exquisite images and fascinations...
his 'eye' for composition is unexcelled.

richard, this artist, is my true friend. ... he is generous-of-spirit, wholly kind and truly a beautiful being on this earth...
i'm so glad and thankful for the friendship we share.

treat yourself to some hours with dadaikido via his photostream ... you will taste an inspiring array of luminous, essential delights."
