It's been a long couple of days. A family friend passed away yesterday after fighting cancer for four years. I hate cancer. I'm tired of people I care about becoming victim to this horrible disease.
I'm going to church with a friend tonight. I'm praying for peace for my friends. They are 15 and 17 and now without a mother. It's not fair.

I love the shape of the eye and lashes in this and the reflection of the lashes in the eye. Eyes are really beautiful and fascinating, very personal.
My sister has been calling me "lashes" lately, in a way that makes it sound like an insult. "How would you know, lashes?" "Get your ass up here, lashes!"

This week, I decided to take a social commentary approach and take photos of my friend, Dwayne Holmes, who does drag "whenever he gets the chance". I think drag and subversion of gender binaries is interesting in general and taking photos with Dwayne while he did drag for a night was a great way to add a level of intimacy to my photos while showing the whole process from start to finish.
I just got a new 50mm lens which I used almost exclusively during the shoot. I have definitely fallen in love. I think the more selective focus softens close-up portraits and I just love the feel of a fixed-length lens. Lighting was tough, but fun. All we really had on were the bright dressing room bulbs and then the spotlight on the stage which was great for low-key silhouettes.
Editing for all the photos was just levels, curves, brightness, and contrast. I really liked using black and white again and I think it made the photos cleaner and simpler.
Ultimately, I ended up having a great time this week. The photos turned out better than I had hoped and I really liked taking non-posed pictures for a change.
Trying to focus more on the dimensions available in a flat piece of paper than cutting intricately.
Inspired by the lovely papercut lashes blogged here.
Well the album doesn't come out till November in the US, but I'm liking the samples on their website. Kind of sounds like a PJ Harvey/Bjork/Imogen Heap mashup.

Bat for Lashes at the QMU.
The q to get in was massive for this and I turned up at a reasonable time.
Good gig but a tough one to shoot
