After working for 2 hours with something that I wanted to look like a faded forest, I gave up, it wasn't my day, my head were spinning with too many other thoughts... So the forest was almost deleted and instead this person decided to appear, don't know how it will end.

Miranda Parker as Ellipsis, a superheroine and member of the famed Punctuation League. :-)
This is from a studio shoot with the entire cast of "The Baffling Adventures of Question-Mark Man" by Bottled Spider. A really fun show about superheroes...and punctuation. What's not to like? :-)
These are some of my favorite presets. I have never purchased a preset in my life, I have fun making my own and have developed my own workflow. I have a preset for just about everything, low light, backlight, exposure, contrast, and so on! Each preset not only changes skin tone, but also changes the colors and contrast of the rest of the image, making it very fun to edit and process each image just the way I like it for the shot. One thing I never do or have done is touch my subjects face or eyes in any way. I do not go in and smooth skin or change eye colors and so fourth. The beauty of the subject is truly untouched in my images. I really do stick to the natural in natural light photography not just for lighting, but for facial features and so on! Here are a few I just wanted to share as I am working through this session :)
*** For all those do-it-yourself-at-home kids......Never never never!!! wad ALL the hair up into one knot or bun on top of your head if you're using 30vol/high lift, or bleach. The process of lifting creates A LOT of heat, and that will build up inside the 'bun' causing excessive damage, and possibly even burning the scalp. If you're wondering why the hair on your crown is melting??? That's why. Split it into smaller sections so that air can circulate.

The story behind
'Novitiate Nebula'
This quilt is made out of 80 different blocks from a variety of block of the months and quilt alongs that I participated in during 2012.
These include:
Sew Sweetness, New York Beauty Quilt Along - sewsweetness.com/2012/02/new-york-beauty-quilt-along.html
Canton Village Works - Blogger BOM: cvquiltworks.com/blogs/blog/12661573-today-is-the-day-the...
Jo's Country Juction Crumb Along: www.joscountryjunction.com/today-starts-the-crumb-quilt-c...
Breezy Beginner's Sampler from Quilt Gallery: mishkasplayground.com/learn-to-quilt-booklets/breezy-begi...
and a few blocks of y own.
I finally put this mish mash of blocks made from my scraps together into one cohesive quilt this year. I used a fabric that already had these cool patterned circles on it and cut it for the border.
I sent it to my aunt, Barb Raisbeck of Quilts by Barb for the long arm quilting. She used a flourescent orange thred to make these amazingly intricate swirl designs on the border and to emphasize the new york beauty block. Using a gray thread she did a rounded building block type design all over the rest of the quilt. It really is the perfect quilting solution to the crazy top I sent.
The more I tweak this project, the more I love it. Through controlled accidents, I got it to look rather Nebular. I will continue tinkering and if all goes well, soon I will have an audio-responsive universe!
Read about it here. There is a short video too!
Working on a new music video project. It is probably going to change a bit over the next couple weeks so I want to keep an eye on the screen grabs that I like. I plan on showing it at FiTC on April 22nd. I will write a post about it after the project gets a little closer to completion.
Again, the main point of interest is that there will be no post-production. The entire thing is code driven. Every beat is manually input like in the Solar (Goldfrapp) video I posted a couple weeks back. Every single high-hat hit, every snare, every bass, the vocals, the guitar arpeggio... all of it was manually input. Took about 6 hours to input the data for the whole 5 minutes and 15 seconds of song. Maybe when musicians start releasing multiple tracks per song with isolated instruments, things will get a lot easier.
I find drawing posed pictures straight onto the computer pretty horrible. There are too many choices, and the slick feel of the tablet leads to hasty, speculative strokes that go nowhere. I prefer to render a sketch in ballpoint pen then work it up.

Creepy old crematorium that is now abandoned, light was leaving us fast so we had to be quick. Looking at the sketchy history of this place on the internet, over 100,000 bodies were processed through this crematorium. We visited and the undergrowth was really coming through. A good end to a great day.
Another month, another tour. The Benzine tour no doubt on the name. On tour with Camerashy, Wiffsmiff23 and FlashandBlur. Countless hours driving, some iconic places visited and efficient Police and Security encountered and hid from. Not to mention lots of places sealed, trashed or locked down.
