When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want, but not what you need

When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse...

I got a free D90 some years ago, the back panel was broke, the screen broke, and mother board had a broken power ribbon connector. Last week I got a Parts D90 on ebay that worked but had a broken mirror box. So I took the back panel, screen and mother board and fixed the free D90, the D90 I fixed only has a little over 8,000 shutter clicks, now it should last a very long time, I hope! 😀

well there's not a lot for you to give,

if you're giving in,

and there's not a lot for you to feel,

if you're not feeling it..

Winter really destroyed the street this year. Talk about pot hole city.

I'm always amazed by how even the ugliest subject can look incredibly beautiful when viewed at just the right angle... and in just the right light! There is hope for me yet! ;)

I'd really like to thank Daleen and Schalk Engelbrecht for inviting me to waffle-on about my fun-times while photographing the Knysna forests at your George Camera Club's AGM last night... and for accommodating me in your amazing Fancourt home! Your generosity during the past 24 hours was appreciated more than you could ever imagine! Thanks also for showing me some really cool stuff today, most of which I would probably never have found by myself. Like this stunning little fix-me-upper in the tiny, miniscule (no-horse) town called "Herold"... which I never even knew existed before today!?

Just a touch of plaster and a lick of paint... then this scene would to be perfect... right?

Nope... in my opinion... this scene is absolutely perfect exactly as it is!

This would be stunning with all that intricate woodwork cleaned up and painted. Tallinn, Estonia.

After weeks of mulling it over in my mind I figured out my mini peg board. My husband suggested the graph paper to keep it straight, attach to cardboard for structure, attach grommets then add styrofoam backing and organize tools pushing wire into the strofoam to secure. Happy Father's Day, off to get ready for Sunday brunch.

My Belle is in the strange yellowish NS Lati had between 2013-2014.

I wanted to use this Felix Brownie body, so I dyed the head using RIT powder dye.

First photo also shows before I bevelled the neckhole.

The head was cleaned and magic erasered thoruoughly before dyeing. I used only a teaspoon and a half of RIT Fuschia in the pot, and dipped for 5 seconds in gently boiling dye, then quickly scrubbed the head with magic eraser in cold water. This is so important to getting smooth finish with dye. Then I did another 5 seconds on top.

She will now go to my face up artist (DrKrow) for her face up!
