Do you ever think about how much of what you see and experience can influence your life? In my piece, Haunted Fairy Tale, learn what influenced me the most here: www.photographythrive.com/haunted-fairy-tale/
"I need to let go of this feeling. I shouldn't waste precious time dwelling on the past anymore. I did what I had to do. What had to happen has already happened. What remains to be done is for me to get a grip and go on with my life. The future awaits. I have to move on now." ~Raymond Carlos Abagat

Shades of Life
As I discover myself more and more as an artist, I have been exploring the idea of how we impact our external world with what is going on with our internal world. What I have found throughout my years alive, is that our perspective is what impacts the outcome of our situation – we emanate what is inside of us.

When you look at the world around you, do you believe that you are spreading light or darkness? Do you even know? Or ever stop to think about it?
Recently, I have been pondering this question. Am I doing more harm than good with my attitude? Just today I caught myself thinking, I wish I could rewind my life back 2 years and I wouldn’t make all the mistakes I’ve made since then – as long as I could rewind my life with all of the knowledge that I have now. I think humans often wish to go back, undo the mistakes they’ve made and move forward with the knowledge they have now.
Until going back in time becomes an option, we must go forward and do our best to learn from where we came and move forward with grace, love and patience towards ourselves. Even though I would love to rewind 2 years, I wouldn’t want to erase some of my greatest accomplishments of those 2 years or unmeet some of the beautiful people that have crossed my path.
If you could undo something from the past few years, what would you undo?
What are you doing to replenish your soul? Are you constantly giving of yourself without replenishing yourself?
I often find myself in the position of giving everything of myself without taking the time to nurture and replenish my energy. I give and give and give until there is nothing left and I collapse or I put myself in an environment that is desolate and not conducive to nurture me. Lately, I am being more intentional about drawing boundaries so that my soul can replenish itself after I have given a lot of myself to others.
I want you to know that you are an important being. There is nothing wrong with giving but there is also nothing wrong with taking. Strike a balance between both so that your cup can remain full. Find an environment that feeds into you instead of taking from you. Our resources are finite if we don’t care for them and at some point, those who we give to will have nothing to receive because you will be depleted. You matter and nurturing yourself is more important that nurturing others. Take care of yourself first so that you can then turn around and take care of others.

Patience, frustration, cynicism, sarcasm, disbelief, contemplation.......
All kinda rolled into one.

Trying out a self-portrait to prepare for some of my ideas for this coming week's theme. Wanted to play with window lighting, flash, and trying to get skin tones correct.
Also trying out Lightroom 4 beta. Really liking it!!
I’m deeply grateful to the entire Flickr community
Not many people know this, but my very first Flickr profile was created back in 2005. This year, I’m celebrating 20 years with Flickr. Later on, I made a mistake and deleted that original profile, and in 2008 I created a new one — which is why my account shows 2008 as the start date, even though my journey really began in 2005.
Thank you to everyone who has stayed with me all these years. Thank you for not forgetting me, for growing together with me, and for witnessing how I continue to evolve in different directions. Over time, I’ve created my YouTube channel, Patreon, and Instagram, and this journey keeps expanding.
There were also moments when some people tried to impersonate me, which was very upsetting — but I’m truly happy that this situation has been resolved.
Looking ahead to next year, I’m searching for someone who could help me with social media management. If anyone would like to support me, have access to my social platforms, help with content, ideas, or publishing — I would be very grateful.
I wish all of you a wonderful 2026, a warm celebration, and beautiful moments with your families.
Please stay with me, follow and support my work. It’s such a joy to see so many new cross-dressers joining the community.
I always read your comments on Flickr — it’s very comfortable for me to give feedback there. And if you write to me on YouTube or Instagram, I always reply.
Kisses and hugs
See you in the New Year ✨
There’s power in what’s hidden. In this moment, we’re not invited to see the face, but to feel the presence. The posture isn’t just concealment—it’s protection, tension, defiance, or maybe even peace. The interwoven fingers form a barrier, but not a wall. It’s a quiet stand in a noisy world. What makes it compelling isn’t what we’re allowed to see, but what we’re made to wonder. This is vulnerability in full display, not through expression, but through the act of withholding it.

One of many Graffiti Walls in Downtown Macon established by The 567 Center for Renewal to provide graffiti and mural artists a legal place to practice their craft. Anyone, whether professional artist or aspiring artist, is able to use the wall as a blank canvas to express themselves and create art without causing property damage for building owners.
This photo is part of my Exploring Macon project featuring images taken around Macon and Middle Georgia.
