All mine. :)
Published by Finch Publishing, an imprint of Simon & Schuster.
It's available in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa at the moment. My publishers are looking to potentially open distribution deals with the UK and US, too. But that will come later (they're tight markets to pull from this little corner of the world!).
It can be purchased, as far as I know, from here, in the meantime.
It was only launched at the end of last month. It is based on my diaries. It has recently been endorsed by the Eating Disorders Foundation of Australia.
I am still a little sensitive about the title and cover. I chose neither.

This shoot was all about Big crazy WILD hair. Biting handcuffs, applying lipstick like a Rockstar and a little Bad Habit of smoking. Hope you all enjoy. I had fun doing it.

Macro of a Pure Black Damselfly sitting on a Nail.
13mm extension tube was coupled with 50mm f/1.8 to get a bit closer than the 50mm permits by default. Could be far more closer if the full set of 3 tubes of 65mm was used. But I wanted a bit more surrounding area and a few out of focus nails along with the main subject.

Thanks to Randy for trying to stand still for a long exposure ;-) The mosquitoes were biting more than the fish were.
And we thought we had it bad with mosquitoes.. How did they get through that tough armor?
Zoom in if you dare
While at my mom's summer house back in late July, I walked by one of the water barrels in the garden and noticed something moving on the surface.
That something turned out to be a very black beetle so I put my hand down in the water next to it and it eagerly climbed up on my finger.
That's when I noticed the spectacular pair of mandibles on it which at first it was trying to sink into my finger! - but then decided against it and raised it's head instead.
Thankful for this, I set it down on a piece of wood and began trying to figure out what it was.
While I figured out that this is a longhorn beetle known as the black longicorn beetle (Spondylis buprestoides), it stayed completely still there for me so I could experiment a bit with how to photograph it.
The shiny and black armour really sucked in all the light so it took a while before I had shots showing more than just a black hole.
If you zoom in on it you'll notice that there are a couple of very small little somethings on its head. These are springtails (Collembola, possibly Isotomidae sp. - thanks FransJanssens@www.collembola.org.) which aren't in any way parasitizing on the beetle. They were most likely stuck in the water as well and climbed onto the beetle to get out of there.

That fancy red ice fishing shelter wasn't needed on this beautiful day at Montpelier Reservoir, Idaho. It is surprising how comfortable it can be out there when the sun is shining and there is no wind. It is much better when the fish are biting though.
La Bocca della Verità (English: The Mouth of Truth) is an image, carved from Pavonazzo marble, of a man-like face, located in the portico of the church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin in Rome. The sculpture is thought to be part of a first century ancient Roman fountain, portraying one of several possible pagan gods, probably Oceanus. Most Romans believe that the 'Bocca' represents the ancient god of the river Tiber...The most famous characteristic of the Mouth, however, is its role as a lie detector. Starting from the Middle Ages, it was believed that if one told a lie with the hand in the mouth of the sculpture, it would be bitten off...This girl believes that this mouth can bite. She’s very afraid because she doesn’t remember did she tell the truth to her mother who smashed the vase to smithereens yesterday, she or the cat...

Sono la campana y el fin de semana se deja ver
Vestido, de traje, lujuria salvaje bajo mi piel.
Si dios, puso la manzana fue para morder.
Ay dios, pequemo' abrazaditos hasta el amanecer.
Llego la fiesta, pa' tu boquita
Toda la noche, todito el dia.
Vamo' a bañarnos en la orillita
Que la marea esta picadita-ita-ita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
De tu boquita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
De tu boquita.
Tus labios, mis dientes,
Bocado crujiente, rico pastel.
Fuego en tus pupilas, tu cuerpo destila tequila y miel.
Si dios, puso la manzana fue para morder.
Ay dios, pequemo' abrazaditos hasta el amanecer.
Llego la fiesta, pa' tu boquita
Toda la noche, todito el dia.
Vamo' a bañarnos en la orillita
Que la marea esta picadita-ita-ita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
De tu boquita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
De tu boquita.
Quiero pensar, que no eres real.
Me parece natural, letal, asà te pones a bailar.
No te pones freno cuando te pones a sudar.
Vamo' a lo low, para sentir tu flow.
Pa enseñarte niña, pa llamar la atención
Te mantiene en tensión, sin bajar la presión.
El sudor tiene cura pa frenar la tensión
Deja de moderte, estoy vampiro bien demente
Deja de moderte, te lo juro y si la gente
Deja de moderte, bien despacito y búscame
Deja de moderte, amarradito bien demente
Llego la fiesta, pa' tu boquita
Toda la noche, todito el dia.
Vamo' a bañarnos en la orillita
Que la marea esta picadita-ita-ita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
De tu boquita.
Una mordidita, una mordidita, una mordidita
Ta picadita
Ta picadita-ita-ita.
Llego la fiesta, pa' tu boquita
Toda la noche, todito el dia.
Vamo' a bañarnos en la orillita
Que la marea esta picadita-ita-ita.
