Well David Bowie could get away with being weird so why can’t I? I’m not really sure what provoked me to attempt this photo. It was probably only the thought that no one else has ever tried it, so I would see what I could achieve. I’m not wholly impressed with the result, but it was somewhat rushed as I was actually trying to get ready for work, rather than having a bath for the pleasure of it (although I do enjoy a good steam). I thought I would try a shot holding a bottle of shampoo in one hand and a bottle of beer in the other as if trying to work out which might be better rubbed into my scalp. But the dynamics of holding an object in each hand, and keeping them in focus whilst gripping my heavy camera with mounted flashgun under my chin whilst still stretching enough to have my toes up by the taps at the end of the bath proved too much. And all the while I was being put off by my wife and daughter banging on the bathroom door demanding why there were bright flashes coming through the pane of glass above the bathroom door.
Oh well. Is this the first picture of toes and beer in the bath on flickr? If so I would call that an achievement: something David Bowie never managed despite his artistry and inventiveness.
But I did take insoiration from Flickr contact Matthew Fox...see here www.flickr.com/photos/matthew-fox-photography

taking baths used to be my favorite part of the day...mainly i think because of the awesome bath toys i had. it was kind of fun looking through them again. and sad. mainly fun.
aah all my friends are leaving ajfkdla;. after i go it'll definitely be easier, but it's hard watching them go. or waiting for them to go...that sounds bad--i mean, anticipating their leaving?
in other news, i can't stop listening to the new kanye/jay-z album, especially 'lift off' and 'why i love you'...and 'gotta have it'. i've already overplayed 'no church in the wild'. thank you, carina :)
Mother Laima licking her daughter Iazua on the log! She doesn't know yet if she likes it or not, but I know that it's cute!
Taken at the Bratislava Zoo.
One of the rescued bears at Wildwood Trust rewilding centre was playing in the water pool whilst we were there. It had some enrichments to play with too, but it also just seemed to enjoy the water on this warm day.
I like the shape of this photo, less so the colours, but it didn't really work in black and white. There's quite a few photos I took where I liked the shapes more than the final photo.
I was really happy with this portrait of my youngest daughter. Technically it came out great with the flash bounced off the ceiling and nice catchlight in her eyes. But more importantly it really captures her personality, she's quite the cheeky monkey!
I asked Mari why we take baths in this world, while we don't even have to breathe. She said, "Because water's sexy!"
I had to agree. Enjoy your bath, babies.
