Kass and I also decorated our bodies for the ride. These are my temporary leg tattoos surrounding my "real" tattoo. We also had tats on our arms, and Kass even put tats and stickers on her face & chest. You'll see more as I post pictures from the day of the ride.

I don't know nearly enough about the See no Evil project or the artists, but I know I liked these a lot
I'm longing to get out there to shoot a sunset. It seems when I have the time, nature decides it's time for rain. When I'm off somewhere, nature glows in all her splendor. :)
Enjoy this one from the archives...
Hope everyone's having a great week. I'm trying to wrap things up at work before I start the new job on Tuesday.

The Body Worlds show in Chicago... One of the coolest things I have ever witnessed. If you have the opportunity to go to this, do NOT pass it up. I drove 8 hours to see it... (PS: it was no cameras allowed, so all these shots are taken on the proverbial D-L)
A little guy that befriended me while I was shooting portraits of a friend in High Park. He almost looks fake. I usually wouldn't post shots like this, but I couldn't help myself, I love them!
(Also, it was taken with my new lens, the 85, 1.8! Yay!)

final photo of the ones I took last weekend ; I'm sure you're all pretty much bored with the repetition by now! :)
Joanne Gair is an artist and image maker who has emerged as the premiere make-up artist/body painter in the world. Originally from New Zealand, Gair has worked worldwide with the top photographers, directors, super models and celebrities. Her work spans all media: covers and layouts, fashion campaigns, advertising, music videos, commercials and motion pictures. She was propelled onto the international art scene by the August 1992 issue of Vanity Fair, featuring Demi Moore wearing nothing but a suit of body paint.
I struggled with the decision to give this girl a new body because I really like the curvy body but I also like articulation. She is on an older Fashionista body for the time being. If she wants to be curvy, we can switch her back!
Not that we would ever recommend getting a full body wax, but whatever you do, avoid getting it done in Vietnam. Here's why:
Your photo, "Full body view," has been chosen as the winner of the Monterey County Herald's "Monterey County Wheels" photo contest!
It will be featured on our website, and we will print the photo in our Monday, Sept. 8, edition. We would like to publish your name and city of residence with the photo.
Sorry, I have been so busy, my flickr friends -- catching up with work, gallery showings, and photo contests. *sigh* tough life, but I wanted to share, and now I'll go check in with as many of you as I can before sunset turns me into a slug.
Mukutmanipur's undulating forested landscape marked by the vibrant colours of Palash and Sonajhuri trees is refreshing and invigorating for the body and mind. It is marked by the prominent hillock about 200metres high, locally named "Baroghutu" (Baro- twelve, ghutu-/stones/hill). The tribal hamlets of Baroghutu, Jambeda, Kumorbahal, Dhagora and Mukutmanipur encircle this hillock. With a landscape that seems naturally designed for adventure, Mukutmanipur offers opportunities in rock climbing, trekking and a variety of water sports.
The local festivals, Tusu, Bhadu, Sahrai and Badna are symbolized by much music and dance, and strengthen the Mukutmanipur experience, laden with the relaxed air of nature in the heartland. The Bankura district has a tribal population famous for its music, art and culture. Mukutmanipur is one such quaint village. The community will provide the tourist with a life that is stress free.
Palash(Butea monosperma) is a species of Butea native to tropical and sub-tropical parts of the Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia, ranging across India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and western Indonesia. Common names include Palash, Dhak, Palah, Flame of the Forest, Bastard Teak, Parrot Tree, Keshu (Punjabi) and Kesudo (Gujurati).
It starts blooming end of JAN and arround mid March it is in full bloom. Perhaps the most attractive flower of the season. When in full bloom, it is a sight to behold ! The mountain ranges are transformed into a spectacular phenomenon making them appear as if the flames of saffron-red colors are leaping from them. No wonder the tree is also known as-and aptly so- ' Flame Of The Forest '. In West Bengal, it is associated with spring, especially through the poems and songs of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore, who likened its bright orange flame-like flower to fire. In Santiniketan, where Tagore lived, this flower has become an indispensable part of the celebration of spring. The plant has lent its name to the town of Palashi, famous for the historic Battle of Plassey fought there.
It is a medium sized dry season-deciduous tree, growing to 15 m tall. It is a slow growing tree, young trees have a growth rate of a few feet per year. The leaves are pinnate, with an 8–16 cm petiole and three leaflets, each leaflet 10–20 cm long. The flowers are 2.5 cm long, bright orange-red, and produced in racemes up to 15 cm long. The fruit is a pod 15–20 cm long and 4–5 cm broadIt is said that the tree is a form of Agnidev, God of Fire. It was a punishment given to Him by Goddess Parvati for disturbing Her and Lord Shiva's privacy. In the Telangana region of Andhra Pradesh, these flowers are specially used in the worship of Lord Shiva on occasion of Shivratri. In Telugu, this tree is called Modugu chettu.
In Kerala, this is called 'plasu' and 'chamata'. Chamata is the vernacular version of Sanskrit word 'Samidha', small piece of wood that is used for 'agnihotra' or fire ritual. In most of the old namboodiri (Kerala Brahmin) houses, one can find this tree because this is widely used for their fire ritual.
Use as a dye
The flowers are used to prepare a traditional Holi colour. It is also used as a dyeing color for fabric.
Use as a pesticide
This plant kills Mosquitoes. They are attracted by the smell and color of the flower. Eggs that are laid into the liquid within the flower will never hatch. Any mosquito that touches the fluid can never escape from it.( Source: Wikipedia)
