We are coming back to normal life here in Russia. All mayonnaise salads finished off, cakes too. Few pics done, nothing worthwhile. Hope to be in shape soon both figuratively and physically :)
An ikebana - a gift from my friend. She already has blooming primulas on a glassed balcony.
Just got back from London .... and enjoyed our trip.
However, last Saturday it was really too crowded. Some 2 million people were shopping in Oxford Street and Regent Street, spending some 200 million Pounds !!!!!
You can imagine how good it was to leave the crowd and enjoy a more quiet and greener part of the city.

Tony's Daily Topic - Differential Focussing
Thanks so much for looking in, your comments are always appreciated. Have a great weekend!
New camera new photo attempt. Same lighting setup as last time but the photos came out a little better this time (more over all light captured, though still some light and focus balancing issues), still need to get more practice with the new camera. With how large this moc is and its color scheme the only way I may get real good photos is outside on an over cast day (not likely to happen with this moc) or with good convention hall lighting.

Wings tattoos like some of the women who shop there. The mannequins at American Apparel’s downtown New York City store have pubic hair peeking through their lingerie. And at Dav...
Travelling back in time, exploring dark corners of the past - this view seems ages ago. What once was is no more. Empty spaces got filled now. And all is full of love...
Sadly, I cannot remember her name, but I recently saw a stand-up comic whose words keep coming back to me. She was talking about masturbation but the point she made struck me as totally describing my relationship with photography. She said she could never get a sexual fantasy to reach fruition because... in her mind... she kept endlessly revising what she wore. And I'm so much the same with photography. I'm so obsessed with setting the scene (and it's never quite right) that I manage to (surprise) avoid shooting altogether. Which is ridiculous and absolutely must stop. Now.
So here's my new strategy - going back to doing things the old fashioned way. By which I mean strapping on my camera, heading out into the world, and seeing what I can see. These oyster catchers were lit in such a way that I couldn't really see them through my camera, so I just kinda shot in their direction. They're so damned cute, it's hard to get a bad picture of them. So yeah... I shot herons and fish and sea anemones and rocks and trees and dried up salt in tide pools. And... no, it wasn't amazing. And no, I didn't get any good shots. But that was not the point. The point was to stop trying so hard and just enjoy the act of shooting for its own sake. (Goodness knows I have enough other things to obsess about. Taking the trying out of photography opens up its therapeutic benefits. Which I really need right now.)
I am back after 1 the years of absence, satisfied of you find my beautiful girls. I resumes my flick' r and my blog in hand now.
See you soon
Kisses xoxo
Harlequin Duck - male
Histrionicus histrionicus
I made my annual pilgrimage to Barnegat Light this morning to see the wonders that often hang out there like this beautiful Harlequin Duck - my favorite duck species.
The water was really high today so the ducks had less space on the rocks, making it easier to get a nice shot.
the greenie pair have returned to the far west pond below cedar point......seen one of them gathering sticks for a possible nest and this one looking for a snack
This is the back of the lodge where the band played. I didn't stay late like everyone else...was a party pooper and went to bed! lol...you can see the tops of the cabins out there...they were so cozy...had little fire places and I'm so glad...it's so cold up there in the mountains...wow! This place is in Idaho. Lochsa Lodge. :) Large view is best. I know these kinds of photos probably aren't as interesting to others...kinda wedding related stuff is what I mean. I'll be done with them soon! :)

I thought I'd rotate some oldies through, this was one that I really liked from 2007.
One of my first times dressing completely.
Carrying the weight of the world makes for a strong back.
An update of a shot I took for my 52 project a few years back - this time managed to construct a white background which I think makes for good contrast.
Stock Marauder Prototype back from Utah. Made a few adjustments and component swaps to bring it up to speed.
The back of the first floor will be changed. It's WAAAYYY under-detailed. Also, I need to make that staircase work. :P
