I did my own makeup. That took 2 hours. So i was running on adreleline by this time

* Busy holiday!

I have not thatched the parts or set the hair, but these are the first reroots I have ever done! (Well, #2,3,4,5,6 ; )

I want to make all the limited edition dolls I could never buy. It's dam fun.

What a great way to begin 2012, with all these 'new' dolls to make!

 

****I have never been able to take pictures indoors at night. NOW I have made an inexpensive light tent I can!

Behind the scenes from the purple shoot! Here's some of the teasing in action.

Any place will do when you need to refresh makeup and do a little primping. A moment later she finished and stride off to cat her train...

This pic was taken back in 2009 -- the same time as the other photos in this collection -- but I chose not to include it when I was uploading the rest. To feel the full set, click here: www.flickr.com/photos/49656534@N07/sets/72157623983463278/

Bokeh butterflies for this little sweety. Did a real quick setup while the kids played and managed to get a few cute pics. She was a great model - patient and ever primping :)

What? I didn't primp. I WAS ABSOLUTELY SITTING AROUND JUST LIKE THIS.

 

Anyway, I was almost tagged by the delightful and adorable Victoria. Except I'm not taggable. But she got me anyway, and you know what? I've been very absent around these parts and I figured... what the hell. I miss all of you. So here I am. Saying hi.

 

No. You know what I'm saying?

 

HelLO, darlings. How I have missed you. Consider yourselves tagged with big kisses. All of you.

Pyx thinks its a "pwetty dwess". Here she is trying to make her hair look nice to go along.

He's primped and preened and ready for class.

The big recent Busway news was the opening of the extension from Canoga Park to Chatsworth Station on the weekend of June 29-30, 2012. Meanwhile, at the other end of the Busway, restoration work continued on the old Lankershim/North Hollywood Southern Pacific/Pacific Electric depot building. As of July 12, original Southern Pacific colors have been applied to the building. Still no word on what the refurbished building will be used for.

Taken years ago while on holiday in Galway. Wonderfully dramatic light. No primping involved

After a morning of frenetic fishing in the flood waters, this group of pelicans retired to a more calm gravel bar to primp and preen.

The Rules:

1. Stop what you're doing

2. TAKE A PICTURE OF YOURSELF RIGHT NOW. Don't primp, just snap one!

3. Upload it.

4. Tag 5 or 6 people to do the same

* I do not tag others *

Primping in front of the mirror before going out to GiGi's a favorite gay bar of mine.

The doll above is a Kelly (or a friend of Kelly), though I can't recall which one. She's wearing the fashion she came in.

see me primp, see me smile, see me walking around with no where to go lol

I can't remember where I took this. But I have to admit that seeing this after I developed the roll was a pleasant surprise.

 

OH!!!

 

Now I remember... this was in a ladies' restroom somewhere. Although I can't remember if she realised I was taking her photo.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you my best friend... primping herself in the ladies.

 

Ah, the perils of being acquainted with me...

The low light and soft reflections make this one of my favoriteshots that day.

"It takes a lot of pawing and primping to get it all going the right direction again. Sometimes even that does not work and you have to walk up and down the length of the sofa rubbing your face in it before you get it all back in place. Until you get it right again it tickles your nose and makes you sneeze!" So says Sophie.

 

We have had a short, spring-like break in the winter weather and Sophie took advantage of it to stick her head out the car window for the first time in months. I don't blame her, I took my first bike ride of the year for the same reason. The forecast for Friday is up to a foot of snow!!

No primping, trying not to giggle, taken for another Flickr game for warts 'n all self portraits ... But I've been TAGGED by cliffbriggie so I thought this would suit - Please do not adjust your monitors, this is real !

 

16 things about v_s that are not obvious from this photograph LoL!

 

1. Born in Hampstead NW London some time after the last Ice Age

 

2. Came to Oxford when I was 19 to read English, French and Law at Oxford's other university, now called Oxford-Brooks. Never went back because London is just too stressful; although I miss the museums and art galleries.

 

3. Before college did a gap year working in a public library that opened it's Reference Room to down-and-outs, had a reader that wrote bad pornography and pinched my bottom, and another who thought he could fly ... This place so fascinated me I nearly skipped college altogether for the fun of working there!

 

4. I tend to believe I'm indestructable, having nearly died from drinking contaminated orange juice and suffering pneumonia as a small child, experiencing a knife attack and a camel attack - Well you would, wouldn't you ?!

 

5. I have a great fear of blindness as a result of nearly losing my eyesight.

 

6. My brother is a professional photographer and I had an Uncle who painted in water colour and oil.

 

7. I have a very mixed ancestry - Spanish and Scottish blood, and a Lady Dowager on my Mother's side; Botany Bay criminals on my Fathers!

 

8. I hope there really is such a thing as re-incarnation or an after life ...

 

9. I worry ... Hence the Kling On forhead ! But I also laugh a lot and have a fairly random sense of humour :)

 

10. I discovered I suffer from vertigo after I'd climbed to the top of St Paul's Cathedral and froze, totally unable to move. Very embarassing !

 

11. One of my most embarrassing moments was mistaking another man for Andy in the street, rushing up to him and throwing my arms around his neck - Ooops!

 

12. I can't cook - Though I made my living making ice cream for G & D's in Oxford for a while. One American customer had me summoned from my underground workroom to tell me I made "Darn fine blueberry ice cream" I was dead chuffed, I thoight she was going to complain she'd found a hair in it!

 

13. I'm a bit accident prone - Whilst working at G & D's the washroom ceiling fell down on my head and nearly knocked me unconscious. G's reaction was "Thank God it wasn't a customer, they'd have sued our asses off!"

 

14. I used to work in UNIX technical support for the Oxford English Dictionary of which I was very proud. I was transferred to Windows technical support five years ago, which I don't enjoy, as I no longer feel I'm part of a creative process, just another human resource.

 

15. I have a philosophy for when I am out of work - If things get desparate get a job in catering! At least you'll get one meal a day !

 

16. Mankind first walked on the moon on the eve of my 15th birthday - Awesome !

 

I now TAG

Something is terribly wrong with the weather.

 

In 1972 the doomed magazine "Primper's Weekly" was launched. Over-endowed with a budget from playboy and dilettante millionaire Hastrubble Wallkin, we see here a charming photoshoot of his companion of the time, Simca Poorcar.

 

When Negs Bigdup, the developer, was asked about the intriguing sky effect, he laughed, and said it was to do with a very dark room and a mistake with a bag of "sugar".

 

"Primper's" ran for just seven weeks, and Simca was on the front cover of all the editions. The now rare "posing as a scarecrow in a turnip field" cover is highly sought after, as Simca herself objected to the poor dress sense in that shoot that was imposed upon her by her photographer and advisor, Koor Lukatem.

 

Simca ordered all the remaining copies to be used to set fire to Hastrubble's bed; rumour has it that one copy was liberated by Herhipsan Isaflashin, Hastrubble's new maid, and is now somewhere in a collector's basement.

Hes got to paint pretties on his toenails too. DUH?!?! LOL.. Gavin painting his toe nails naky after just getting out of the pool. Oh my heart...
