Hello there, I need to tidy up my on-line presence. I’ve been thinking for a while that I should disentangle my various social media accounts and look at trying not jumble everything together.
To that end, because I’ve recently started playing with video and posting them to YouTube I thought I should have a clean channel for the food videos. Of course, it isn’t that easy, YouTube has rules so, for the time being, I can’t get a customised URL.
So in the meantime, I’d really appreciate you visiting http://bit.ly/YummyLummyYouTube and taking a look around and subscribing. Thank you so much.
I’ll be keeping my main channel for other things. Again, I would love if you could visit http://bit.ly/GaryLumYouTube, take a look around and subscribe there to. Thank you very much.
Work presence
Some readers know that I have work accounts for Twitter and Facebook. I try not to do anything on them apart from the odd retweet and share. I use those accounts to follow work-related Twitter and Facebook feeds. I also have a couple of websites for ‘work’ related stuff. They are at http://drgarylum.com/ and https://garydavidlum.com/ Please visit these sites and check them out.
Gary trying to be a better photographer
I really enjoy photography. My interest started when I built my own laboratory in the rumpus room of my parent’s house in 1981. I had an Olympus OM-1 and adapted it to shoot through my microscope. When I was working in Darwin I shot clinical photographs of patient’s wounds, especially their feet if they had diabetes-related foot infections. Back then I shot with a Nikon F90.
It’s not just the shooting of a photograph but it’s also the ‘magic’ that happens when I transfer the digital information into software and play around with it. I am just in awe of how clever people are when it comes to designing and manufacturing the hardware and software for digital photography from cameras through to the computer. I spend a good portion of my free time viewing YouTube videos on photography.
My social media accounts for photography and basically nonfood material:
Twitter http://Twitter.com/garydlum
Facebook https://www.facebook.com/garylumphotography/
Instagram https://www.instagram.com/garydlum/ is my general all-purpose account and https://www.instagram.com/garylumphotography/ if for nonfood photography

My food accounts
If you’re reading this, then you know about http://YummyLummy.com The name came from a friend at work. At primary school, I was called all manner of things from awful racist names through to the innocuous Lummy Bummy. My youngest brother was called Yummy. I suppose if he ever becomes a food blogger we will need to discuss whether I hand over the name Yummy Lummy to him (or not!).

Snapchat
I’m also trying to learn Snapchat. I like that it has various funny filters and the short videos can be saved to my iPhone’s camera roll and then uploaded to Instagram.

Final words
While I’d love a follow/like on all these accounts, please pick and choose and make contact. If you choose one please make it Yummy Lummy on YouTube
Thank you so much.
I left a comment here yesterday. I don’t know if it went through. Anyway, I don’t know how you do it, manage both your food and social media platforms. Always so timely and entertaining every day 😀
When I first stumbled upon your blog, I was amazed at your food photos. All your food photos look good enough to grace the pages of magazines, newspapers and pretty much any food publication outlet in my opinion 😀
Thank you very much Mabel. You are so very kind. I’m so happy you stumbled upon Yummy Lummy because I love following your blog too 😃👍
It’s hard to find the time to manage all of these accounts isn’t it? And you are active on a lot! 😀
It’s my way of socialising. I’m much better on-line than in person 😂😂😂
Wow – and I thought my few social media accounts could be a jumble! You’re making me look like I have nothing going on.
And we subscribed on Youtube!
Fantastic. Thank you 😃😃😃
