I'm about to visit some family first and then pop the champagne with my friends later.
So.. I guess I won't be all glammed up for tonight, but I'm fine with that.
I hope you all have a lovely time tonight.. whatever you are doing.
Partying or relaxing.. it's all good! 😉
First I have seen in matte black. It's quite nice.
I have a new zoom lens but I don't like it so much, I will probably go back to my 50mm.
*I wrote a lot: but the first comment below has more photos from the shoot if you want to skip my gushing.*
This might just be the perfect couple: Mike and Netty.
Mike and I met 18 years ago, we have now been in each other's lives longer than not. His mom worked with my dad and we were introduced at a company picnic right before 7th grade started. Mike was a *dork* with glasses, braces, a bowl hair cut...I wasn't too cute, either. But I was cool. The first day of 7th grade when he stumbled into me I told him, "Get out of my way, nerd!" By the end of 7th grade we were excellent friends. By high school, we were practically inseparable. I spent more of my high school life in Mike's basement than anywhere else, his mom would make home made pizza for all of us, I grew so close to Mike's family that I called his parents Mumsy and Daddy, and they called me Babs; Mike was an only child and they loved our group of girl-friends and having us over. Mike and I even briefly dated during the period we refer to as "the ugly pupa stage" when neither of us were particularly attractive. We didn't click quite well enough to pull off the long term high school relationship, but we never strayed far from each other's company. We even agreed that if by our mid 20s nothing serious was going on for either of us that we would throw in the towel and marry each other, at least we'd always have fun. We even agreed to get a dog and name it "Rod" so that we could giggle every time one of us yelled, "Come, Rod!" We were dorks, did I mention that?
Luckily for Mike, the amazing Annette came into his life. While in college he was working at a grocery store and helped out a high school senior with something. Wound up dating her. Netty was the best friend. Mike took the girl to prom, Mike's best friend Steve took Netty. Mike and Girl A did not work out, but Netty...there was something about Netty.
One night they were watching a movie at his place and she said, "I wish it was me who had gone to the grocery store that night," and Mike looked at her and knew right then she was it for him and declared, "And I see no reason why I don't love you." They kissed...and are literally living happily ever after.
They own a house, just bought it last summer, in Troy, NH. They have good jobs. They have a gross old lovable cat named Keith. And on a vacation to Puerto Rico in February, Mike realized he couldn't stand not being married to her and proposed. They were married last weekend at their home in NH, with close family and friends. They walked down the aisle together to the song Rumble by Link Wray. Netty danced to The Humpty Dance at the reception.
And then they flew into Seattle, rented a car, and started their honeymoon: a drive down the left coast, from Seattle to San Francisco. Of course, they stopped in Portland to see me.
We fit more into 36 hours than should have been humanly possible: we ate at Henry's and had Young's Double Chocolate Stout on tap, bbq beef sliders, fresh hot bbq potato chips, beer and cheese soup. We did a brief driving tour of the Portland skyline from 405. We had breakfast at Pine State, then ventured into the Gorge for what I dubbed "The Gorge Light" tour. A stop at the Vista House, then to Latourelle (the first big waterfall they'd ever seen), a stop at Shepperd's Dell to pick wild blackberries, Multnomah, and then I hiked them up to Ponytail so they could go behind a waterfall. Netty promptly threw off her shirt and scrambled down to the pool to feel the spray and falls. Every turn their mouths hung slack, Mike kept looking up at waterfalls and stepping backwards he was so blown away. They noticed how green our woods are, and were stunned we were only 30 miles outside of Portland. They also enjoyed the lack of mosquitoes and ticks.
I dragged the reluctant duo back into the city, where we picked up a "youCANhascheeseburger" sandwich at the Brunchbox at 5th and Stark: an amazing cheeseburger between 2 grilled cheese sandwiches, for $5. We ate in Pioneer Courthouse Square and people watched. We took Mike to Apple Music, where he was enthralled by the collection (including a classic Gretsch that he has in his own collection), and he nerded out for almost 2 hours in the place. I remember when Mike started to play guitar! We ate maple bacon bars and tang doughnuts at Voodoo, and then saw the one-armed guitarist.
But the highlight of the day was Patrick and I taking them back to the hotel where they threw on what they'd worn on their wedding day, and we took them to the Rose Garden and Pittock Mansion for their official wedding portraits. Over two hours later, we were all pooped, but happy, and concluded the whirlwind visit with a lovely meal at Bridgeport. As an aside, Patrick was also fascinated when comparing all our tattoos, they were all done by the same artist. Seeing three people and countless pieces all in one place by the same hand was pretty interesting to all of us, actually. Dorks always, I suppose.
I was heartbroken to say goodbye to them, I had cried when I found out I couldn't go to NH to actually be at the wedding, but this was such a lovely concession. Next summer they are returning to Oregon for a full week, we might camp at Crater Lake for a couple of nights, they will stay with us in our place with our crazy Pugs, we'll have more amazing food and beer, and I'm going to take them back into the Gorge for more amazing sights. I am already counting the days till we see them again.
Mike and Netty are that couple that you just want to hate...they're just that perfect together. If they don't spend the rest of their lives together...well let's just say I can't see anything else happening. This is it for them, one of the few couples I've shot who I just think have that *something* you need to work. After 18 years of knowing Mike, I cannot see him with anyone other than Netty, and that's saying something. They can't see it any other way, either.
I have a series of photos of this Osprey on a cloudy morning. This one was in the landscape orientation; others were in portrait. I wanted to try out some free textures from an artist named Kirsten Frank on Flickr. I've had a hard time finding really interesting skies. Sometimes textures are physically painted and photographed while others are photo manipulated. This one has an art paper texture which looks quite nice.

..seen my socks?

Does this dryer make my ass look big?!
I have so many more titles for this one.
I've wanted to do one of these for a while and was stuck for a 365 idea while waiting for my brother to get home, went to his local shops and bang, parked right next to an empty laundromat.
I'm pretty sure this was shot in Nashville, Tennessee. With due apologies to Quicksilver Messenger Service, of course!
Sometimes I think that Shyla would love to wear a mask or some kind of disguise when we're out in the bustle of the urban world. On her fearful days, she seems to want to invisible, like someone wearing dark glasses. On her good days, her eyes reach out to people passing us, hoping that maybe they'll smile at her.
DDC "Mask"
Hope everyone is having a good summer (or winter - whatever the case might be). My apologies for not commenting on your photos - I'll have little time the next few days so I'll have to catch up on commenting on your images later.
I think this might be a spittlebug or froghopper. However they are supposed to lay eggs on host plants the larva will eat. This one seemed to be launching eggs one at a time out the rear and over the side of the leaf. I tried to catch a few in my hand to look at them but they were too small to see, except while in motion.
Id help appreciated.

Have you ever seen the Man on the Moon? This common question plays on the ability of humans to see pareidolia -- imagining familiar icons where they don't actually exist. The textured surface of Earth's full Moon is home to numerous identifications of iconic objects, not only in modern western culture but in world folklore throughout history. Examples, typically dependent on the Moon's perceived orientation, include the Woman in the Moon and the Rabbit in the Moon. One facial outline commonly identified as the Man in the Moon starts by imagining the two dark circular areas -- lunar maria -- here just above the Moon's center, to be the eyes. Surprisingly, there actually is a man in this Moon image -- a close look will reveal a real person -- with a telescope -- silhouetted against the Moon. This featured well-planned image was taken in mid-January in Cadalso de los Vidrios in Madrid, Spain. Do you have a favorite object that you see in the Moon? via NASA
Have to post a shot of my clivia each year, just because it is such a wonderful plant. Can be boring if not changed up each time. This is a mix of 3 shots, 2 of clivia, one of bokehish background lights. Oh.....4 pictures.....one of my own textures too.

Hi all!
Usually during these December weeks, I try to find a Xmas tree so that I can take some photos/videos in one my season appropriate dresses. 🎄
But these last few weeks of school have been a bit more hectic.. and I'm visiting my family tomorrow, so yeah: that Xmas dress + tree photo will have to wait. 😛
So, here's a photo of me in my red leather skirt with red heels. Still festive enough for the seasons, right? 😉
I hope everyone has a lovely time with their loved ones during these holidays! ❤️
Having just arrived from Dereham with the 1030 departure, Network SouthEast livery 47596 stands at Wymondham Abbey station on the first day of the Mid Norfolk Railway's two day Festive Diesel Gala.
I took this of another Photographer also enduring a freezing wind that was rocking his tripod and salting up his eyes..all in the pursuit of a perfect Sunset! We are a dedicated and passionate breed and I wish you all a very Happy Easter!
Ella: "Looks like someone is watching us again! - Eh, giant outen the lights!!"
Enie: "Don´t worry (*nom nom*) she will go away in a minute and then we can eat calmly. How do you like the pastries we received from Brazil?
Ella: "They are great... But, by the way why did you get the BIG one with the cherry on it?"
Enie: "Hum, I made breakfast and you slept longer! And as you know: Who comes to late is punished by life... *nom nom*...
(Pastries, little glas next to the pot and the bottles in the kitchen cupboard were also part of my swap with Wivi - Thanks again, my dear!!)

Olathe, CO - Somethings are unexpected; like finding a small winery in Western Colorado and being served by a wine wielding crazy mustache guy. People here were nice, the winery was located in the backdrop of a tiny town that seemed a bit surreal. The tasting room felt like a conformable shack, it was adorned with local merchandise and small signs with inspirational words. The owner was holding her new born baby while the ponytailed sporting father-in-law poured the wine. This is a place were books are inspired.
I wondered the property and eventfully ended up in a cornfield for some reason. Ever walk through a cornfield? That stuff messes up your compass, but that's another story.
have been feeling stressed by the smallest happenings in my life, these insignificant affairs moved my body 1.5 centimeters away from the center of my comfort zone.
thank heaven i still have my cameras. :)
