I'm trying to use up all the paper I already have, including cut-offs and scraps of paper, before buying anything new, so, some non-standard sizes.
Of course this nice right-handed drawing has the most resemblance, but I also find it the least interesting of the three.
Scott Houston McGregor (b. January 18, 1954) is a former MLB pitcher who spent his entire career with the Baltimore Orioles from 1976 to 1988. He is now the pitching coach for the Aberdeen IronBirds. He was a high school teammate of George Brett in El Segundo, CA. Brett was a second-round draft pick in 1971 while McGregor was a first-round draft pick of the New York Yankees in 1972.
In 1974 the New York Yankees sent 20 year old lefthanded pitcher Scott McGregor to Syracuse to begin the season in the Chiefs rotation under second year manager Bobby Cox. He was named I.L. Rookie of the Year, represented the Chiefs in the 1974 I.L. All Star Game and went 13-10 with a 3.44 ERA.
On June 12, 1976 the New York Yankees in an effort to capture their first Pennant in over a decade traded prize prospects Dave Pagan, Tippy Martinez and Scott McGregor to the Baltimore Orioles for lefthanded veteran pitcher Ken Holtzman.
He won 20 games in 1980 and was solid in two postseasons with the Orioles in 1979 and 1983. McGregor sent the Orioles to the World Series by clinching the 1979 ALCS with a Game 4 shutout of the California Angels. He also pitched a complete game victory in Pittsburgh in Game 3 of the World Series that year and, despite taking the loss in Game 7 of that series, yielded only 2 runs in 8 innings to Willie Stargell and the eventual champion Pirates.
After the 1983 World Series, he remained a starting pitcher on the Orioles for the next five seasons. He made his final appearance on April 27, 1988.

I have the absolute most coolest friends and clients in the world. If not for my relationship with Richard Turner and his staff at his Redbone Guitar Boutique I'd probably never have the chance to have dinner, drinks and seriously hang out with folks like Brian Ray and Rusty Anderson, Sir Paul McCartney's wingmen and guitar players. Again, thank you Richard!
Just to be clear, I didn't shoot this shot. The great snapping Rusty's making reference to here are the shots I took of both him and Brain May at two separate guitar clinics at Redbone. Those are over here: www.flickr.com/photos/hmk/sets/72157607057991660/

Unlike most turnstiles, the Metro in Barcelona expects you to be lefthanded, or at least be ready to have your ticket in your left hand. This comes as a surprise to most visitors or people who, like me, hardly use the Metro.
Every day I take the Metro I see the same scene: a tourist inserts the ticket with his/her right hand and watches in frustration how the turnstile remains locked, until the moment a local shouts that the unlocked turnstile is the one on his/her right. I'd really like to meet the engineer who designed this device. (In fact, I'm quite sure that this comes as as surprise even for lefthanded people!)
Note the 3 arrows (white, orange and black) trying to indicate the poor user that this is a turnstile unilke any other.
Al contrario que la mayoría de barreras de metro, las del metro de Barcelona están diseñadas para que el usuario introduzca el ticket con la mano izquierda. Esto siempre sorprende a los visitantes y a la gente que, como yo, rara vez usa el metro.
Cada vez que uso el metro presencio la misma escena: un turista mete el billete con su mano derecha en la máquina de la barrera y observa, atónito, como la barrera permanece cerrada; el desconcierto dura hasta que un local le grita que la barrera que se ha abierto es la de su derecha. De verdad que me encantaría conocer en persona al ingeniero que diseñó esta máquina.
(De hecho, sospecho que esto es una incómoda sorpresa incluso para los usuarios zurdos.)
Atención a las tres flechas (blanca, naranja y negra) que intentan advertir al pobre usuario que las barreras de este metro no son como las demás.

Notes
Jane Bewick (A). ‘A view of Cherryburn – T.B. (mounted on the three-legged stool) & his companions making a snowman, which stood till it became a mass of ice to the great terror of sundry old women one of whom ran back to the house to tell what an “awsome [sic] sight she had seen”. Here is the little window at the Bedhead [see Memoir page 10] – the stout well dressed boy is Willy Johnson, who lived with his mother Barbara Johnson in the Hamlet below [ie Eltringham]. He died a fat good-tempered old man at Prudhoe where he farmed many years – the ragged lad is Joe: Liddell son of Anthony Liddell mentioned in the memoir.’ ‘Building a snowman at Cherryburn, Bewick’s birthplace. Bewick himself is portrayed on the stool.’ (Bain 1978 page 17.) Attributed to TB’s Mature Phase by Bain (1978 p25). But Chatto (London Library MS.f.25) and Bain 1981 attribute the watercolour transfer drawing (at the British Museum) to Robert Johnson. See Jenny Uglow Nature’s Engraver 2006 for a discussion of ‘Esto Perpetua’ and Diana Donald (2013) for the suggestion that the figure of the snowman may be a caricature of the unpopular William Pitt (in a 2012 draft, in Ch 3 p.18 and notes 120 & 121).

10 units icosahedron with five right handed and five lefthanded (mirror symmetric) units.
Very stable model. Assembly was o.k., last flap not so nice, rest mostly easy.
I love those clean models, they are always a pleasure to fold and assemble.

Tomorrow I'm off to the East Coast for the Annual General Meeting of the American Society for the Alexander Technique. I'll still be drawing every day but I don't know how frequently I'll be able to post.
Today's Comment
This is a past self-portrait from my Daily Portrait Project, in which I made a non-photographic image of myself every day for three years, from 3/15/07 to 3/15/10. Soon they'll all be loaded on flickr, you can find them in this set: www.flickr.com/photos/juliakay/sets/72157619599543783/
The first year of the project is now available as a book: www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2418516
Volumes II and III coming soon...

This is part of my Daily Portrait Project, which can be viewed in it's entirety at studiojuliakay.com/portraitproject.
It's also part of series within the project, which I call left-hand-blind (LHB), in which I draw with my eyes closed and my non-dominant hand. I do open my eyes and use whichever hands I feel like for adding color.

The train to London was very crowded and I had to stand most of the way. A man sitting next to me was making notes. He used a Scheaffer fountain pen and is left-handed. He was writing upside down, a trait of some left-handers (including Prince William) It is done to avoid smudging the work but is an awkwardness which should be discouraged. My mother and my wife were left-handed as is my eldest grand daughter, they all avoided developing this style.

Many turnstiles have to be marked especially in order to make people aware of the uniqueness of this design.

Muchas de las barreras han tenido que recibir indicaciones especiales para que los usuarios sean conscientes de la brillantez de este diseño.
I wonder why everybody stopped using ink-pens.?!
I´m lefthanded and with todays quick drying ink it´s even possible for me to write with these old pens ( i have to wait a few seconds before it dries, but who´s in a hurry..)
Try it if you have the possibility, because it´s a totally nice feeling when writing with these pens!!

Playing right-handed, Ronnie playing for a red ball.
Ronnie is one of a handful of professional players who are just as good playing left or right handed.
This is my '93 Alvarez Commemorative guitar.
I bought brand new in 1993, in a Mexico City store. It is converted for left-handed playing.
This was my first serious guitar; it is still my favourite to this day.

The photo I was working from for all of these: www.flickr.com/photos/maureennathan/9731687245/
I wanted to work with another subject the way I work with my own image - not worrying about likeness, having fun with process, indulging in whatever artistic impulse strikes me in the time I have each night. Maureen was kind enough to agree to let me have at her 'no holds barred'. I also like to work in series so I chose to make 50 portraits over 25 days, all from the same photo. The images range from likeness to insane, from detailed to quite rough, some interesting and some that I wouldn't ordinarily display, except I'm posting the whole series.
These were all done in a lined spiral notebook with fairly thin paper that I received last year at a computer conference. I had used the first 50 pages for a series of ink self-portraits, and now I turned it over and starting from the back, filled it with these 50 portraits of Maureen. It is now completely filled.
These are, of course, portraits for Julia Kay's Portrait Party (JKPP).

Back for a second go and now the pink is rockin :)
Simply changing the glass base that was painted white on the underside, to one painted black made a huge difference.
Added to that a smaller pool of light on the background by putting a snoot on the light, rather than the wider reflector, allows more of the pink to show.
Should have mentioned on the previous shot, I'm still messing around with Aperture Priority mode. While the previous one worked fine with no compensation, this setup was a lot darker so I have added an extra stop of light, which gives a much better exposure.
Never thought I would say it, but I'm quite enjoying using auto exposure and the compensation feature is really no different to bracketing in manual mode really.
Also reverted to my lefthand bias with the framing of the shot today, which I'm a lot happier with. I wonder if that looks weird to someone who is lefthanded and if they would bias to the right ???
Never thought about that before :)
