Hand made wire tree.

When Sarah posted the word for this week, I immediately knew what my photo would be. 'Life' is on my mind a lot as we are expecting a new little life to join our family this year.

What an amazing privilege God gives to take part in creating life, don't you think?

(Note: This photo was actually taken last week on Friday, since I am planning to do monthly updates to show how my belly grows. But I decided to use it for this week's theme because it seemed to fit so perfectly).

52 weeks of photo inspiration

Year X Week 44 27/10-3/11/19

Although these shots were taken a week earlier, I was suffering from a case of camera fatigue after the trip.

Anyway, this was taken at Caesars Palace at Journey's residency at the Colosseum. What a concert, what a band and what a voice. Also loved it when the usher says "Don't stop believing" as he collects your ticket. More soon... faithfully.

Mh, that week was good. I had to go to the kindergarten because of social work for school. it was fun, but also very exhausting. :) They are so cute, I think I'll miss them. On Saturday I met some friends and on Sunday we watched the football game between Germany & Australia (yeeah, Germany won) and I took some photos with a friend. :) _______________________________

Solo chi pratica la fotografia con estrema passione, sa quanto il tempo abbia per noi fotografi un significato diverso dalla sua classica accezione.

Per noi, "il tempo di scatto" scandisce il movimento di un soggetto lasciando una lunga scia, oppure lo congela nell'attimo in cui noi desideriamo fermarlo per farlo nostro, per sempre.

Per tutti gli altri, il tempo é solo un susseguirsi di ore, giorni, settimane...

Il progetto che inizio oggi, dura un anno, si chiama "53weeks" perché un anno é formato da 53 settimane, e per ognuna di essa dovrò scattare una foto che sia attinente ad un tema. Ogni settimana quindi, sarò impegnata a cervellarmi per realizzare una foto originale, sperando di imparare qualcosa di nuovo e coltivare questa passione che sembra proprio non volermi lasciare per molto tempo ancora.

ps: il numero degli scatti NON é casualmente sull'1 (week 1 of 53) ;D

So its exam week and they need to be done. now.

Week 6/52

Hello to our Final 14 contestants and welcome to 'The Face'! You are all here in this competition for the same dream of becoming an international top model who will become one of the most in-demand girls in the industry. There are 14 of you, but only 1 of you can come out as supreme and score the title of 'The Face' aswell as our fabulous prizes.

Before we begin judging, its time for you to meet the judges of the cycle. They will help me to come up with the decision as to which of you will be sent home each week, and which of you scores top photo of the week.

London Lux - Model, socialite, actress, singer, designer, producer and all-round tough cookie. This young girl has done it ALL - and she's not even 21 yet! She knows what is big in the idustry and she knows who is has what it takes to succeed in the industry, and those who don't.

Dexton Lumiere - Worldwide and highly in-demand male model who has worked all over the globe for brands such as GUCCI, GUESS, Ralph Lauren and DKNY.

And myself, Hayden Williams - Newly-found model whose career is about to blow up. She has already been signed to POLLY. Model Management aswell as scoring a cover for POLLY. Magazine. She is a name to lookout for in the future and will be headjudge for the whole of the cycle.

Now lets talk about those all important prizes! The winner of 'The Face' will recieve...

✰ A contract with agency, POLLY. Model Management. (OhKumi)

✰ A cover and spread in the Spring Edition of POLLY. Magazine. (OhKumi)

✰ The cover of both POSE and Beauty in: POSE Magazine. (LillieGolighty)

✰ The cover of CHIC Magazine. (BratzSwedish)

✰ The cover of FLAIRE Magazine. (Rainbowdoll489)

✰ The cover of both ALLURE and ALLURE Beauty (MrEoin1000)

✰ And will also be photographed regularly and featured constantly in OhKumi's photostream.

Now we will begin deliberation. For you girls' very first photoshoot in the competition, you posed shirtless alongside fellow 'The Face judge, Dexton in the great outdoors. We wanted to see connection and chemistry between the two of you and make sure that Dexton does not outshine you.

Lets get started! The first girl up for deliberation is Whitney...

Whitney: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8334899401/in/photostr... - We really love this photo as a whole as we feel like this photo tells a story, its like you are clutching onto Dexton asking him not to leave you and we really love the emotion you are evoking in this shot. Out of all the girls, you definitly had one of the best connection with Dexton as you are both working together rather than you working on your own. The only thing we are not a fan of is your face, we wish you'd have given off an almost sad/sorrow sort of look to go along with your body language as currently in this photo your body and your face are not working together.

Leila: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335967236/in/photostr... - We are slightly dissapointed with this shot Leila. You definitly have bags of potential but you are simply not using your unique look to your advantage here. The posing is a little bit all over the place and you look incredibly stiff here. Instead of looking like you love Dexton, you have made yourself look like you are pushing him away from you which is not good. Your face is nice, but we think that if you'd have looked at Dexton, it would've created more of a connection between the two of you.

Alex: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8334918913/in/photostr... - Wow! Your eyes are piercing right through here Alex! You have such an alienesque face that just photographs perfectly and your eye connection with the camera here is almost spine-tingling. The way you positioned yourself is very...interesting to say the least, we are having a sort of love/hate vibe with it. We do love that you took a risk this theme as it did pull-off but Dexton did say that he found you hard to work with due to you having a tantrum before you went of set. Please learn to control this - fake it until you make it!

Maya: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8334880839/in/photostr... - Whereas the public seem to love this shot of you we, the judges, are unsure. You seem to photograph a little old, so you are going to have to find angles that are complementative towards you. Your face is a little dead here too and we feel a very big lack of chemistry between the two of you, this shot isn't bad but its very in the middle. That being said, the public seem to love you so having a fanbase behind you is always a good thing.

Veronica: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335924660/in/photostr... - Your look has got to be one of our personal favourites out of the whole group! You have this really European and Italian vibe to you which is always good to have in modelling. We think this photo is one of the strongest shots out of the bunch as you both seem to be playing off from one another and there is an immediate connection. You are working with Dexton but are making sure he doesn't outshine you. Great job!

Rosie: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335974552/in/photostr... - Rosie, what happened?! You look like a rabbit that got caught in the headlights! You look incredibly uncomfortable here and it looks like you are about to make a break for it and run away from Dexton. Dexton stated that you were incredibly nervous when on set which explains why your shot is less than impressive. You have to realise that you are a gorgeous girl with a tone of potential - you need to have confidence in yourself.

Charley: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335973096/in/photostr... - As soon as London saw this shot she stated that it was boring and we have to agree with her, this photo has no spark or connection between the two of you at all and this photo as a whole is just lackluster. Your face looks blank and its not doing much for us and the only thing we do like is the fact that you are looking into Dexton's eyes. Also, the public did state how you do not scream 'Model' to them and which is not a good thing at all.

Perrie: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335963874/in/photostr... - We like the way you are posing in this shot Perrie, and we love the way you appear to be lounging yourself onto Dexton in a loving way. As far as body language goes, you've nailed it but we think that if you turned and faced Dexton then this would've be an A+ grade shot. Your photo is one of the best this week however you did managed to make yourself look a little bit on the shortside.

Letitia: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335942814/in/photostr... - You have recieved mixed views from the general public this week. Whereas some of the public ADORE your look, others are not very big fans - your look appears to be one of the love/hate sort of things as you are so quirky and unique you may not come across as everybodys cup of tea. Personally, we think that you did a great job this week and we are loving your mysterious face here. The right arm is a little bit awkward and stiff though which kind of ruins the photo slightly but apart from that, you did a good job.

Vienna: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8334895125/in/photostr... - You have handsdown the best connection out of the bunch with Dexton within your shot! We love the fact that you are staring at him directly him in the eyes as it makes it look like you really are in love with Dexton which is exactly what we wanted for this photoshoot. Some of the public have stated that you have appeared to have almost lost the model inside of you which we do have to agree with slightly.

Rita: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335963158/in/photostr... - We were expecting a lot more from you Rita since you have one of the most editorial and modelesque looks out of the whole bunch but this photo is just extremely dissapointing. You look uncomfortable and your face is not working whatsoever, you certainly know how to pose but you are posing far too much for a shot like this. In this photo Dexton is outshining you in a highly considerate amount and you have appeared to have totally missed the mark this theme.

India: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335946094/in/photostr... - Another extremely dissapointing shot I'm afraid. You do appear to be attempting to model but you are simply not modelling with Dexton which is what we DIDN'T want. Although your face would be good for an editioral shoot, for this theme imparticular it does not work whatsoever. The whole photo just screams amateur and the general public were not fans of your this photo either.

Felix: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8335938416/in/photostr... Ooh Felix we are totally loving this! We love how it looks like you have fallen on top of Dexton in a romantic and loving way but yet you have still remembered to model. Even though you are not looking at him, you are still giving off a major amount of connection and love between the both of you which is a tricky thing to do but you have managed to pull it off. The only slight critique we'd give to you is that we would've liked to have seen a bit more of a smize from you.

Nik: www.flickr.com/photos/87945352@N07/8334884803/in/photostr... - Wow! We are really surprised by this shot Nik! You are working this shot to the max and we are loving the side-glance at the camera - its as if you are giving off a; "Who, me?" sort of vibe as if you are running away with your lover. You are a really photogenic girl and you photograph beautifully. I think that if you'd have held hands with Dexton then it would've made this shot just that bit more amazing.

The judges and I have discussed and have come to a decision as to which of you girls will be the first to leave the competition.

Did you agree with the callout? Did the right girl get sent home? Leave you comments below!

Un tag. J'y ai ajouté une pochette à l'intérieur

I've finished organizing all of the red/black/tertiary pieces. I'm now filling in existing red boarders one panel at a time. So far, red is moving along much faster than green. I think it's due to my process becoming more refined. If I keep up my current rate, I should finish red by the end of the month.

I drive by this little church frequently in the valley that I live in and am reminded of my faith in Jesus by these crosses.

Theme Of The Week - Dragan effect

My first (long) week of Me-Made May is finished! My pledge was to wear Canadian designers this week, which ended up including:

- 4 pairs of Closet Case Files Ginger Jeans

- 1 dress with a CCF Nettie bodice

- 3 Sewaholic Renfrew mods, none of which are recognisably Renfrews

-1 Jalie hoodie (I also sewed another one this week, but it got too hot to wear it!)

- 3 Jalie raglans

- 1 In-House pattern Kimono tee, which I made this week

- Ohhh Lulu undies almost every day!

I did repeat the jeans more than once, though I still have one pair I didn't wear... and supplemented with one or two RTW or designed-elsewhere items. Not bad though - now on to European designers for the next week!

been meaning to do this pose for 52 weeks for quite some time. I finally got around to it. I got the idea from this pic in Calvo's stream. I just realized both of her feet are behind her arms. oops didn't do it quite right.

Here's a serious Skye for this week! Not something you see very often :)

I'm trying to get over the fact that the focus is off, because other than that, I do like the picture.

Well, I finally finished my tests yesterday, and I enjoyed sleeping in this morning. I'm finally going to get the chance to spend more time with the dogs now, and I get to give them both a much needed bath! :)

Skye (and my other dog, Cassie) actually live out in the yard... not my choice obviously. Well, we're home alone for a bit so I snuck her in for some quick shots in the piano room. She was freakishly excited running around barking in circles. I still can't believe she laid down when I told her to and actually rested her head down without a command. What a lovely little model I have.

"Cowboy Take Me Away"

I said I wanna touch the earth

I wanna break it in my hands

I wanna grow something wild and unruly

I wanna sleep on the hard ground

In the comfort of your arms

On a pillow of bluebonnets

In a blanket made of stars

Oh it sounds good to me I said

Cowboy take me away

Fly this girl as high as you can

Into the wild blue

Set me free oh I pray

Closer to heaven above and

Closer to you closer to you

I wanna walk and not run

I wanna skip and not fall

I wanna look at the horizon

And not see a building standing tall

I wanna be the only one

For miles and miles

Except for maybe you

And your simple smile

Oh it sounds good to me

Yes it sounds so good to me

Cowboy take me away

Fly this girl as high as you can

Into the wild blue

Set me free oh I pray

Closer to heaven above and

Closer to you closer to you

I said I wanna touch the earth

I wanna break it in my hands

I wanna grow something wild and unruly

Oh it sounds so good to me

Cowboy take me away

Fly this girl as high as you can

Into the wild blue

Set me free oh I pray

Closer to heaven above and

Closer to you closer to you

Closer to you

Cowboy take me away.

Closer to you

This is for the Thankful theme at 52 in 2013. I am very thankful for my family and this picture is definitely a family affair. These are two shots of my sister and me (she's the cute one with the longer hair). I'm including the one of the right because it is the one we are replicating. Cathy took that shot in *cough*1984*cough*. The one on the left is my actual shot for the week. Laura and her husband came to visit for the holiday and we had a great time. Cathy helped with wardrobe and Chris helped with direction in recreating the old shot. I'm so thankful for them all and that we are all still around to do such a thing and have such fun together.

Please note that the boxes holding the albums are the very same boxes from 30 years ago!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I tried a quick self-portrait with my instax, but it didn't really work. So I spent a rainy afternoon looking through the set of landscapes I've taken with it, which really work quite well.

Finally got round to sorting out my last photos from for my photo a week project last year! Had some issues with broken computer and receiving a new camera so got a bit behind.

You can check out the full set here - Project52. This was a lot less stressful than the "photo a day" project a few years ago!

03/52: Revenge of Conan

April 15th - 22nd

For this week it was kind of difficult to get a good idea for this project, and since I'm not artistic in the least I decided to use one of my kats; Conan the Barbarian.

She's actually quite sweet and still a kitten. However, I had her in the natural light of the veranda windows and kept trying to get a clear shot of her eye.

I finished the shoot and because she kept moving, most of the shots were blurry and not at all what I wanted, but since we had a live show that night, I couldn't stick around waiting for her to sit still.

So... I figured I'd just use one of those shots, got show ready and headed out on my bike to the venue. After getting home quite late after our show, I slept on it and woke up not at all happy with the shots!

Poor Conan was used again. This time, I blackmailed her with fish while Ninja, my black Kat, watched from the sidelines.

This time was heaps better! Shutter speed, aperture, lighting, focus and she was much more into it.

Thankfully there were heaps to choose from, but this was the one that seemed so out of character for her and full of emotion; and because of that, I went for it. I'm so glad that I didn't settle. There's still a lot of learning and a lot of practice to go before I get anywhere as good as D-Chan.

Here's to hoping you guys had a great weekend!!!

a bright winters day

Late getting ready for work, late doing my 52 weeks ... LATE LATE LATE!

Now this belly is getting round!! I love my belly!

This week he models received their makes and had a simple photoshoot to show the off.

Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair...my 3.5 year old has never had a haircut and is quite happy about it! She is the age where princesses, unicorns and all things fairytale are real and she thinks cutting hair would make her a little bit less of a princess. Who am I to take that away?

: )

22 weeks! Getting bigger and getting heavier!

Unfortunately, getting more sore too!

The great part though is how well I can feel moving, kicking, and rolling!

I didn't the baby would get bigger and stronger that quickly!

June 27- July 3

I've been wanting to do a candle photo shoot for awhile now, and here it is! Summer definitely makes me put this project off, so I'm a few weeks behind. I can't believe it's already July. I'm having the best time with my sister. So this was a fun long exposure shoot, and I love how it turned out. I've been working a lot at a job I hate. Lifeguarding at a water park. It is becoming unbearable, especially during the week long heat wave of 100+ degrees. And rude guests. Urggg, hopefully this time next year I'll be interning somewhere.

This photo is extra funny because I do actually have a twin, but this is me x2, I promise.

I wish flickr wouldn't tell me how many views each photo has. It makes me feel like poo.

Week 4
