Being Here - The End of Being There

copyright Jackson Couse

From Being There, my blog:

"On August 26th, 2008 I published this blog's first post. Three years later to the day, Being There comes to an end. The decision to end Being There was a long time coming. The there part of title stopped fitting: I'm here, I've arrived.

There's been a lot of life in the last three years; I went back to school, quit school for a job, quit that job, moved to New York, and went back to school once again. Life has changed me, and my work has changed. I'm working with a large format camera these days. I dove head-first in to video, too. And now, from my apartment in Long Island City, I relaunch my career as a photographer feeling a great deal of excitement. I am doing what I love to do in a place I want to be. There is a lot of work ahead. Maybe one day I'll start a blog called "being here."

Until then, I'm working on building my photography practice. I have several projects brewing here in New York. I'm looking forward to adding the new work to the projects section of my revamped website. The relaunch will add several new sections. I also have a newsletter: sign up for updates, and I'll send you a postcard!

Thanks for reading, and talk to you again soon!

Jackson"
