Just a quick one before I headed out for a meal last night.
Part two of this weeks little outings was just as hectic as part one. I really must remember not to try and do my makeup in the car the lighting is dire.
Last night I got home early by an hour and that gave me enough time to get a half decent look. I haven't been to happy with my look just lately its a combination of getting older and rounder in the face once again, and work being very full on as a result it takes longer for me to relax into who I am, But don't worry I am fine and not about to do anything daft like buy more dresses.
Right where was I ?
I was going to for this blouse with my jeans as modelled a few days ago but at the last moment I decided a skirt was needed. Think it works :-)

Biography
She was born in Amsterdam into a family of artists and received her first lessons from her father, Joseph August Knip, who also gave lessons to her aunt (his youngest sister), Henriëtte Geertruida Knip. His father, Nicolaas (1741–1808), was an artist as well. Some sources indicate that her mother was Pauline Rifer de Courcelles, a painter of birds, who was her father's first wife but, at the time of her birth, they were apparently separated and he was living with his mistress, Cornelia van Leeuwen (1790–1848), who is also credited with being Henriëtte's mother.[1]
The family moved often as her father found work giving lessons. But, by 1823, her father was already blind in one eye. The following year, he and Rifer de Courcelles were finally divorced and he married Leeuwen. After he became totally blind in 1832, the family continued to move about, staying for a short time in The Hague, then Beek and 's-Hertogenbosch before settling in Berlicum in 1840.[2] By this time, she was essentially in charge of the family's finances and legal obligations, and had begun painting seriously by 1835. She was a participant in the Exhibition of Living Masters in 1838.[1]
After Leeuwen's death, she moved to Amsterdam where she painted farms, animals and forests from nature; first in watercolor, then in oils. That same year, she became the first woman admitted as an "active member" to Arti et Amicitiae.[1] In 1850, she married Feico Ronner (1819–1883) and they moved to Brussels. He was often ill and could not be regularly employed, so he became her manager.[2] At this time, she narrowed her subject matter, focusing almost entirely on dogs and cats. After 1870, she painted her most famous works, featuring long-haired, often playful cats in bourgeois settings. She continued to paint dogs too; notably lapdogs belonging to Marie Henriette of Austria and Princess Marie of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen.[1] Ronner-Knip exhibited her work at the Palace of Fine Arts at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois.[3]
In her later years, she had a house with a large garden, where she kept hunting dogs, cats and a parrot that she used as models. After observing them in her studio, she would make paper sculptures in the desired poses and set them together with props, such as furniture and fabrics. She occasionally collaborated with the genre artist, David Col.
In 1887, she was awarded the Order of Leopold and, in 1901, became a member of the Order of Orange-Nassau.[2] Her son Alfred and daughters Alice and Emma [nl] also became artists. She often exhibited with them.[1]
She died on 28 February 1909 in Ixelles.I
Hi guysss! After a really long *and I mean really really really long time* I'm finally uploading something! x
Snapped a quick photo of my sister's Oz witches. They're lovely. Her fave is Glinda (I wonder if its the case for most little girls since she was the hardest to find/most limited). She also tied back Theodora's hair because it "had to match the trailer." Her MH collection is growing, too. Found a PD Cleo on sale at Justice so it went on her MH wall of boxed dollies.
Taken on the south side of the Huntington Beach Pier, California. Once again a foggy morning on a small surf day. I just haven't hit good with a big surf and sunny day for photos.
On the iPhone... just to give a sense of scale (person on right hand side) to some of the more remote Sottish beaches.
Today is February 21 and I looked at the long range forecast today and this may be the last strong winter storm for the season. Constant wind from the east crashed waves into the rocks where the water froze quickly under these frigid temps.

When I've been out in the afternoon and then I carry it on into the evening I need to change at least part of my outfit. On this occasion it was my skirt :-)
I made this a couple months ago in a day or 2 just to start dabbling with wing angles (in preparation for this and all that follows). It's nothing special, but was a fun project and I'm really happy with the inner frame in particular.
I find it fun to take apart and put back together small builds like this too.

Just managed to capture this Green Fritillary before it flew off near Birling Gap, East Sussex - July 2015.
How quick does the new Nikkor 500mm f/5.6 PF ED VR focus? I was shooting this guy head on....stopped and spun as he went by. One frame on him as he approached the runway. Kill % with this lens is 95%.
Quick little bird! One minute it's in the center of your camera the next its a foot away in an instance! Really liked the colours and comparison in size to the wheel in this photo. After taking i think a higher shutter speed would have benefited, aperture priority isn't the best all the time! but I still love this photo! Thanks to the little guy for staring right at me!
