I've started to experiment with Kumihimo braiding to see if they would make suitable cords for my polymer pendants.
Chotlo, if your a fan of hindi movies, check out "Bhrashtachar". The actress Rekha has her gorgeous long hair in a beautiful french braid for most of the movie.

FOr this shot I had camera on tripod, at 35 mm 2.8, TTL flash bounced of ceiling
I converted to B&W with selective blue and then did a split toning (which I am just starting to get to)
My hands look huge and spidery. Beside the fact that 35 mm will distort things a little. They really are. Big and spidery. The nail salon people tend to look at me weird and talk to each other in a low voice, in a foreign language (why would they speak low voice if I can't understand them?) . So I don't do that nail thing. One day a tiny employee (well they are all so tiny compared to me!!) told me "big cuticles!!". Which I felt like apologizing about. Then she started to hurt my fingers trying to remove my "big cuticles".
And I thought women when to nail salons for relaxation. Well not me. For relaxation, I read a book, have wine, watch true blood (Especially watch the vampire guys in true blood....saying "Sookie" in their super sexy voices), or look at you all s pictures (if there were more vampire pictures, I would spend more time on Flickr. Just saying).
I am slightly out of topic here. This flickr thing is becoming a stream of consciousness. Maybe I should write a blog like everyone else. About cuticles and Vampires and photography, and how I find red and orange and hot pink to be gorgeous together. This thought will remain UNFINISHED (LOL) for now.
That is his braid and he is very proud of it , as is his fellow class mates....

Me, braiding a traditional Bulgarian symbol - Martenitsa, by the traditional Japanese method - Kumihimo

Here is what is it Martenitsa - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martenitsa
At sometime in their lives most little girls want one of these. Can you tell this guy is loved by some little girl?
Does the beads give it away????
I used the stable across the street from my oldest daughter's elementary school as a babysitter (mind you this was the greater Los Angeles area next to the LA river). We leased a little Arabian gelding and she would would go directly from school to the stable until I got off of work. Luckily for me it was run by a great gal with an iron fist and I never had to worry about my daughter. My oldest is no 40 something and I am sad to say it isn't something I would do now, even though the stable is there (run by another gal) and so is the elementary school.
From glacial melt to the open sea, Iceland's rivers stitch together an otherworldly landscape. The aerial perspective reveals patterns unseen from the ground: serpentine streaks of turquoise, ashen deltas unraveling into silence, golden sediment swirling beneath cold blue streams.

Look at that pose! A braid with a little curl on top. It looks like there's a fingerprint under her arm.
she had braids once before - when she was 8 and going to summer camp and was too young to manage her mane of hair... a little smile wouldn't hurt would it - (i guess she gets tired of having a camera aimed in her direction all the time by me)

Just a regular white bread recipe. The bread is best to be served as rolls when you do it like this. Thinking it would be good for Thanksgiving. Pics for a website. sites.google.com/site/familyrecipescollection/home/bread/...
This is a braid my friend helped me with. It goes several laps around my head forming a hairdo that reminds me of a woven basket. Unfortunately this was the best picture of it before I had to take it out...
This is one of my early attempts. Dutch braids are harder for me to do when my hair is really thick. I think it will come out better after I straighten my hair and then braid it.
My braid is never the same twice. Every time I dye it, its a new combination...
Purple, blue and some leftover pink manic panic and some plain old black dye too.

I need extra catch up photos so let me tell you braids really hurt! I was scratching and itching all day for just these three haha Anyhow I enjoyed the eperience and thought the focus and angle of this shot shows the real texture and look of my hair close up! So this is what you would see looking at me closely! ;) Although I'm still craving that macro lens......hmmmmm one day!
I took the big 70-200mm lens with me to Bali and couldn't resist the opportunity to take many many photos from our 6 day getaway with friends. We just needed to relax from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. I really needed a bit of a break and now struggling with choosing photos for this project as most are too personal or not staged enough for 365. Nevertherless I love so many I really just have the urge to put all my travel photos up on flickr but for now they will stay on FB hehehehe

I used Mafiosagrrl's tute mafiosagrrl.blogspot.com/2010/05/embroidery-tutorial-brai... for stitched braids; I can't believe it took me two years to get around to doing that! I clearly need more practice, but I'm still pleased with the results - especially the "tassels" at end of braids!
I've been meaning to get Rune a proper wig but funds have been tight. Luckily, I found some elastics lying around and braided the old, frizzy wig I had. I think it suits her so much! ♥
Anyone out there know the secret to tucking in the end braid? I've tried with hairpins and bobby pins and it never stays in place.
my friend french braided my hair in a fish tail esque style a while ago, and i've just got around to uploading this photo. it looked too bright before so i edited with saturation and exposure stuff....
