I was out for a post wedding photography trip to town, I often too this the day after a wedding just to shoot a different style and clear my mind before I review the wedding images.
Arnab and I spotted a cool black backdrop that I hadn't used since 2011 flic.kr/p/a34NWc and then I spotted Arthur walking by and figured he would contrast well in this scenario.
We popped the reflector out and cracked off a few full length and a coupe of headshot images.
He was as cool as he looks, having been out during the day he was now on his way to meet his girlfriend from work.
A pleasurable guy to run into and it was good to add to my project having spent most of the day wandering with the camera talking and eating rather than making images!

Koth and Jar Jar are sorta the same for me. I don't know what it is but I just hate him as a character and his appearance. The only redeeming quality he has is humor and that has only worked once in a conversation.
A gift from my good friend for my birthday. She also treated me to a very nice lunch out. I have many of the Fiesta dishes in all colors and just love them.

The Gay Games is the world's largest sporting and cultural event organized by and specifically for LGBT athletes, artists, musicians, and others. It welcomes participants of every sexual orientation and every skill level. Originally called the Gay Olympics, it was started in San Francisco in 1982, as the brainchild of Tom Waddell, whose goals were to promote the spirit of inclusion and participation, as well as the pursuit of personal growth in a sporting event. It retains many similarities with the Olympics, including the Gay Games flame which is lit at the opening ceremony.
The Gay Games is open to all who wish to participate, without regard to sexual orientation. There are no qualifying standards to compete in the Gay Games. It brings together people from all over the world, many from countries where homosexuality remains illegal and hidden.
The Federation of Gay Games (FGG) is the sanctioning body of the Gay Games. From its statement of concept and purpose:
The purpose of the Federation of Gay Games is to foster and augment the self-respect of lesbians and gay men throughout the world and to engender respect and understanding from the nongay world, primarily through an organized international participatory athletic and cultural event held every four years, and commonly known as the Gay Games.
Gay Games VIII were held in Cologne, Germany from July 31 to August 6, 2010.
Hexed

A few months ago, this field was covered in golden coloured barley & Flynn had to bounce high, to peek over the tops of the crop at me. Now, there's only bare earth, turned to sticky mud with the recent heavy rains we've had. Flynn has fun no matter the season though & happily changes the games he plays. In summer, he likes to creep & stalk after me, slinking carefully through the long grasses, making short, bounding dashes ahead, to chase toys. In winter, his cover for stalking is gone (he still attempts to hide by flattening himself against the brown soil & lying very still), mostly though, he just likes to use the open space to run freely, going out wide, loping across the field in giant semi-circles.
Haha, I must admit, I'm quite jealous of Flynn - I wish I could run so easily up hill over the mud... I was slogging along at a snail's pace & stopping regularly to "admire the view" (catch my breath!) & my boots felt like they were stuck in cement they were so covered in clumps of earth. Flynn had little mud socks but he skipped over the ground quite easily & must have gone many times the distance I did, running ahead & back to me!
Grass full of Bokeh
Again in the garden of my next door neighbour Anne-Marie!
She had these lovely white narcissus in her back yard and I could not resist them :)
The wet grass behind the flowers gave this shot it's nice bokeh!
I hope you have a great weekend!
