week 25

This was totally inspired by watching too much So You Think You Can Dance...My calendar for August is slowly filling up. It's exciting and nerve racking at the same time! I started painting again so if you are interested take a look at my store here.

Hope you are all having a great week!

Ok - i know it seems like we are always on vacation, but i was home a whole month before we left again. Now we are on a short trip to Mexico - our friends had free accommodations for us, so we couldn't pass it up. We spent the last two days around Mexico City, staying with the son of famous Mexican musician Joan Sebastian in Cuernavaca. We went into Mexico City for one night as our friend Daedelus was playing a show there. The next day we drove up to Taxco, and today we flew to Cancun where our other friend's parents have a time share.

We are kind of avoiding the Holiday shopping rush, and our trusty assistant got called off on short notice to a big photo gig on the East Coast, and we have no internet here unless we walk ten minutes and pay $7 an hour, but we trained a new shipping girl shortly before we left and have riskily left our business in the hands of this 20 year old stranger, but she seems like smart and trustworthy and she is shipping out orders for people.

What else - oh, the day we left Paneer, one of our cats came down with a bladder infection or something like it, and our cat/ housesitter said he still isn't peeing much so kozy is pretty worried. She will cheer up once we start scuba diving off Cozumel though I am sure. The only thing that makes he happy as her cats do is scuba diving.

OK - I am just rambling, but i wanted to let a few people that we have been out of touch with know that we are alive and well and doing good and will be home lickity split.

Pink corn poppy in the light EXPLORE--May 6, 2014

tryin to grow my hair out some. it's been a struggle to say the least, i really do like having really short hair. but will be growing it like this for a while, and would like to have it get down to my shoulders, before probably cutting it all off again :)

I just worked this technique out today, though it's probably common knowledge. I first tried using a bricks with studs on two sides (a davros), but that ends up 1/2 a plate too high.

Some single process turn, some repeated process turns, some veil discarding (water or mechanical rubbing) and some (at least attempts to) veil preserving.

Same as the previous photo but inverted so the Airport is inside the sphere :)

I like playing with different effects.....

Since every man and their dog are putting up pics of the big moon tonight, I decided to do one as well, you have no idea how difficult photography becomes when you can only use your left arm ( I dislocated my shoulder the other week).

Anyhoo, to break up the sea of similar shots I thought I would do something a bit different.

So here you go, Inverted full moon.

RAF Odiham

Middle School Number 3 is one of 5 secondary schools in Pripyat. Located on Sportivnaya Street, right next door to the indoor swimming pool. It is famous for the collection of gas masks but the cloakroom numbers give a poignant reminder of the children who would have gone to school here.

Where are they now? Did they survive? Did their parents survive? What do they remember of the disaster?

Questions which will probably never be answered following this terrible event.

simply inverted the shot, what a different view!

this all thanks to someone on flickr that inspired me with this idea! thanks richie!
