Take a lesson from the lilies of the field...
Today I am excited... someone bought 10 greeting cards of one of my images! My first sale. :D
I went out to take this image with my Fuji X-S10 and learnt a valuable lesson. I forgot to disable IBIS so the image was quite blurry and didn't turn out expected. The lighting was amazing though so I couldn't help but share it anyway!
You can find me at the locations below:
This is the first in a series on an old school house I captured earlier this year. I believe the last class was held here in the early 60s, its now used for storage and to display arts and craft during the annual crafts fare.
Had a makeup lesson while back love how the look turn out unfortunately was no time match it with nice outfits
Lesson ONE
Don't try too hard, brush your hair, dab a spot of perfume here and there!
Then fall asleep and dream of the girl you are :-)
I drew this sitting in the car, and colored it there as well. Completely forgot that I was supposed to take a picture of it before I added paint. But it is early in the week, so will try to do another door before next Tuesday. I really, really really enjoyed this, as I used my finger as my measuring instrument and think I got the dimensions correct. And I used my new (in the mail today!) Rosemary pocket brush and found it delightful, so I went into watercolor heaven for a while. I did two drawings of the same door and inked the smaller one after an attempt at paint without the lines, since the watercolor pencil disappeared. The second one I did no lines until after I painted. I am very inclined to break the rules...sorry.
SOHN - Lessons
Of lessons learned, of lessons learned
Of bridges burned, of bridges burned
This time I'll do things differently
This time I'd like to need you less
I'm struggling, I'm struggling
I've given in, I've given in
This time I'll keep an overview
This time I'll keep away from you

Happy New Year guys! I wish all the best. May this one be the best one ever, and not a crash like 87 years ago.
Do not hesitate to take a look at my Facebook page.
A lesson learnt: After talking with my friend Gary, I decided not to go to the Dover Patrol, but somewhere under the route posted.
So, that is why I was parked up at the edge of a field in Martin. I got distracted by a buzzard, rattled off a few shots, then noticed that my battery was nearly flat. I went back to my car to get my other camera body, just in case. I went back to the spot I was before, but was not happy.
I would walk onto the road. I checked my watch, ten to two.
I looked up.
There was the Vulcan, coming straight for me. I raised the camera, but with it set on 400mm and the dull background, it would not focus.
I tried again and again. Nothing.
The Vulcan was getting closer. Those shots I missed would have been sensational, or so I tell myself.
With the Vulcan almost overhead, I find it in the viewfinder and rattle off a few shot, this being the best.
The plane flew off, I got some OK ones, but nothing like the head on ones I should have got.
It seams I am more passable than I think.
While out shopping in my local town I past the florist who happens to sell a lot of vintage style dress (Yes Janet you know the florist) and in the window was flyer for a tea dance to be held locally. I continued shopping and got my bits I went out for and decided as I liked the idea of a tea dance on the way back to pop into the florist and a ask a question.
Now me being the caring sort of person and worry about people's sensibilities I thought it would be prudent to ask if I would be welcome at such an event my being trans and all.
Well the lady was a bit taken aback saying "of course you would be welcome why ever not?" On explaining a second time she said "Had you not told me dear I would never have known"
Well that shocked me and yeah OK she could have just been saying that bit I feel she was being truthful.
So one happy girl walked out clutching a flyer Hell bent on attending the event.
The lesson learnt is I have to stop telling people I am trans it doesn't matter.
