Title: Wheels of Flame
--
Been super busy lately planning new shoots and catching up on a series of contracts! I have a couple interesting images that I'm trying to work on but they're taking a lot more time/photoshop effort than I had initially planned and my recent upgrade to Photoshop CS5 has resulted in a lot of crashes making me loose hours and hours of work =(
Not quite a good excuse though!
I actually have around 10 images of this same shooting with Peg, Romy, Cloe and Edith that are ready to be posted up but I've always found it more interesting to vary the images so people don't get bored.... XD
In other news, my upcoming month is pretty free from contracts so I'm toying with the idea of getting back into some deep dark self portraiture and maybe experiment with virtual landscapes and the new Intuos 4 I recently upgraded to. Thoughts?

These are hand-painted using digital paintbrushes. I was inspired by a line of glass candle-holders which come in gorgeous colors. It was fun to put different color glasses in an arrangement, and then play around with adding candle flames and glow. I hope to practice and do more, since these are just a first attempt.
I don't celebrate any holidays,but I appreciate the good-will wishes of those who do. Like all of you, I value the holidays as a great time to be with family and loved ones, and hope everyone will have a good time doing just that!
I am also going to take some time off from Flickr to recuperate and rest from a recent operation. Will be 'back' by year's end!
Taken for Macro Mondays "All That Glitters" theme. Doing well today, had almost 20 minutes on computer & it hasn't packed up yet! I may actually be able to get some comments in if this keeps up! This is one of those "Yankee Candles" scented candles. I just noticed in passing the glittery effect round the edge of the jar, and under exposed the shot to enhance the effect a bit more against the dark background
For ODC-candlelight. Was thinking my candlelight too drab, so played with the liquify filter...it is what it is.

With a 9-5 job, it's very challenging to spend more time in the outdoors with my camera, and there are days when I don't even get to see the sky change color. When the pressures of life and work get to a precipice, I let everything go and wander out into the wild. I leave my worries and troubles behind, focusing only on enjoying the present moment with nature. This image was made on one such day. I needed this release to get my self centered again.
