Almost 39 weeks now.
We went to our first ante-natal class about a month ago and never came back.. I was okay with it but Niki was appalled by the matter of fact approach and how we were constantly reminded of pain and tearing and all the things that can go wrong… We felt if things do go wrong, we will trust ourselves to doctors who are there to give us the best treatment. We certainly do not want to be shocked into it.
So, we took up an alternative approach called Calmbirth. In the US, I believe it is called Hypnobirth. I came into the class expecting Niki to be hypnotised into a pain-free birth. However, the classes were very educational in explaining how the body behaves through labour and how the mother can calmly do controlled breathing to managed the discomfort (note: the word pain should never be used, when you are asked how painful, you will focus on the pain..).
Well, we’ll see how this approach goes soon I guess. For Niki, this is a more acceptable approach to labour and I believe a more encouraging one.
As for me:
I have been in hibernation for a little while now and obviously have not done much photography. The last several months of change - moving cities, changing jobs and preparing our household for a new member.. preparing to be a family for the first time.. Well, I hope you can understand photography is slipping to the side for a bit. I hope to rectify that now we've settled down in our little town on the border of Melbourne - this is quite a beautiful place and there are so many opportunity for beautiful photography here. Plus.. there's going to be plenty of baby photos coming up.. Still, I may squeeze in the odd artistic nude photography when I get the time to.
One project the The Royal Photographic Society, London Region, is undertaking involves the production of a photobook entitled "Urbanicity 2".
Members are encouraged to develop their own theme to build a portfolio for consideration for inclusion in the book.
For my theme I set out to capture the interaction of individuals with their environment; and indeed the environment interacting with individuals in the community. Whether the connection be humour, street art, the clothing worn, daily activities, facial expressions or just anticipating what individuals were thinking.

Yeah, I realise this is nothing special, but I was experimenting with the idea of a watermark for my photos. Thoughts?
- Taken with the borrowed SLR. I like the focus much, much better.
- Yes, my real name is Louise. And my middle name is Anna. Belladayys is a long story.
Tagged to do the 'one paragraph about me' thingmy. This is the only other upload you'll get today, so here goes.
I'm seventeen. I can't drive. Cars scare me a tiny bit. I love english literature. I can understand most of Shakespeare. I have to conquer Ian McEwan's Enduring Love over the holidays. Today has been the worst day of my entire year, no doubt. It's a shame, when there's only a week and a half of 2010 left, that I can no longer say this year's been amazing. I have my fingers crossed that everything's going to get better, and that 2011 will be amazing. Harry is the second boyfriend I've ever had, and the first I've ever cared about. (That has nothing to do with today going wrong, by the way) I find red hair a blessing when so many others find it a curse. I've been insulted so many times because of it, mostly jokingly, but there are also some genuinely horrible people out there that use it against you. I'm a summer child, I enjoy the sun. I love winter, but I'm already bored of it, and I'm not really looking forward to christmas anymore. Ummm. I'm usually a ridiculously positive person. Constantly. I smile too much. So I don't know why this paragraph is so depressing. Well, yeah I do. Umm, I'm like five foot four, which is short compared to everyone I know. I can walk in four inch heels over black ice carrying a saxophone. I'm a terrible saxophone player, true fact. I'm from England, but I lived in Germany for a year, with the armyyy. I adore watersports. Going to train to teach people to sail. Errrm, I'm done.
If you read that you deserve a medal.

I really like the colors in this one. There's a warm tone coming from the mixer, and the reflection of the lights plays off of the headphones.
The Renault R-39 was a light tank built in 1939, in fact it was a modernized version of the Renault R-35. Unlike its predecessor it featured a tail to cross trenches, an improved suspension and a better canon which made anti tank missions possible for the tank despite the fact that it was used as an infantry support tank (with high explosive shells instead of armor piercing ones).
The tank proved to be efficient fighting panzers in Belgium during the battle of Hannut but it engine was weak and the suspensions were very fragile which led to a lot of mechanical failures during the battle of France.
I changed a few things, first I put a camo on it: a basic french partial 3 tons camo.
I modified the canon to make it longer (a simple barrel piece). And I put some decals on it to give it a cool look. Like Bm model it features an interior
I have a lot of personnal models coming but since it's christmas time deliveries are looong but it's coming soon :)
I'll also post an FCM 36 heavily inspired out of Brickmania one soon !

"Workin 9 to 5
What a way to make a livin
Barely gettin by
Its all takin
And no givin
They just use your mind
And they never give you credit
Its enough to drive you
Crazy if you let it " ~Dolly Parton
At 19, I was working full-time pushing papers behind a desk, bright-eyed, ambitious but somehow, still quite unsure.
Sunday afternoons would roll around and I remember the dread of knowing that I'd have to wake up early for the office the next day.
One day I decided I wanted to go back to school and have the uni experience, I'm 26 now and haven't yet graduated, but I'm glad I gave myself some time to grow. I feel a lot younger now than I did at 19... actually, sometimes I feel 19 again, and never been so glad for being unsure...

Culpa…
¿Qué es la culpa?
¿Son sentimientos que se encuentran?
¿Son momentos vividos y añorados?
Simplemente es…
Remordimientos disfrazados en el momento
Explosión traída a la memoria enaltecida
Situaciones que remontan el espíritu
Simplemente como una espiral reencarnada
Entonces, ¿Qué es mi culpa?
¿La tengo?... ¿O la imagino?
Aborrezco cada instante en el que ahogo la vida
Cada momento en que el aire se torna denso
Cada sonrisa falsa
Cada silueta borrada
Cada llanto enmudecido…
Culpabilidad, culpables… huidas fortuitas.

This little fellow was a gift for our wedding. I actually really like this little fellow.
My wife is using the big camera - so I shot this with the iPhone - Only natural light (and there wasn't much).
I then tweaked the colors and cropped it in Snapseed for the iPhone :-)
I know a lot of people think the iPhone's camera isn't good for anything - but I think the possibilities are abundant. A shot like this proves it, I think. I know there's a bit of grain on the photo - but sometimes it adds nicely to the photo itself.
