Same theme, different girl. We took the same setup as Samantha Anne except instead of a small wink from the beauty dish above we used ONLY ambient Christmas lights on the floor. How's that for off camera lighting? She is sandwiched in between a white sheet on the floor while Ray is holding the white reflector just above her and I'm shooting between the "sandwich"
I love Valerie's smile in this one. Funny thing is I had to turn her up 90 degrees clockwise to do skin retouch. My brain couldn't deal with her recumbent. I did have to do some tweaking with the white balance, exposure, curves, and luminance masking to get it how I wanted it, but not as much as you think. The white fill card amazingly added a lot to the shadow side.
Same individual as the previous upload. Been through the wars it seems (missing leg in the other shot)!
Lovely to see those deep blue hues that are normally hidden under the wings though!

This shot was taken at the same place as a week ago. An other try, always on the east coast of Tahiti Island, French Polynesia, Pacific Ocean
I prefer this one, what do you think ?

Same picture--no triptych. I'm going to milk this session for my 365 :) I like having MY own definition of a 365, lol :) Any picture a day---but ONE a day.
Same butterfly, same afternoon, different snack. I suppose with all of the choices, why should he make just one? He flitted from flower to flower this afternoon, happily drinking away.
This is the same old abandoned house as in the last post. I don't know the history of it but it had obviously been vacant for many, many years. The lantern I put inside the bay window on the other side of the house lit up the second story in some places because of the many holes in the first floor ceiling. The house was caving in, missing parts of the roof, and was a danger and a liability. So I understand why these old houses have to be torn down. I didn't even know about this house until late last year but I still miss it. I want to be able to go back again and again to photograph it but I can't now. In May, when I went by it.. I found a pile of lumber. So it no longer exists. Now it's just a memory. The town of Plainville, Illinois is just a couple of miles behind this house so there was lots of light pollution. It's difficult to find total darkness in this area.
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Same photo as last week and adjacent. First used normal oil painting effect at 75%, then used inverse effect, then used carmine effect.

This photo is about a tragedy, a huge fire that destroyed one of the most beautiful forests on mount Parnitha, near Athens in Greece.

A tiny (approx 25-30mm wingspan) butterfly of the same family as the blue butterflies.
Unlike most other "blues", the Brown Argus has no blue scales on its upperside, both sexes being primarily brown in colour as its common name suggests, although the butterfly does exhibit a blue sheen when at certain angles to the light. Both sexes have beautiful orange spots on the upperside of both forewings and hindwings.
This species occurs in small, compact colonies, and is not a great wanderer, only travelling a couple of hundred metres, at most, from where it emerged.
I panned my camera over to the left a bit and got this image. Very few trees in southern California lose their leaves entirely. It would have been quite an interesting image of this tree was stripped of all its leaves (until the spring, of course), and then be in the foreground of this beautiful sunrise. But, one has to work with what they have, under the current set of circumstances.
Same little swan's chick 3-4 days old
I like a lot this one, it's really funny, it's like they are speaking about me :) : he watche the guy with the tele lens on the bridge :)
(DSC08071_DxO-TIFF-3-1600Ns)
Same settings on the camera, same location and light as the set of the female but different results! I got much more feather detail with the female. I must have the settings wrong! I think it's because of the contrast with the light blue sky and the jet black feathers. I'll have to try again!

We hug and yes, we make love
And always just say "Goodnight" (la-la-la-la-la)
And we cuddle, sure, I do love it
But I need your lips on mine
Can you kiss me more?
We're so young, boy
We ain't got nothin' to lose, oh, oh
It's just principle
Baby, hold me
'Cause I like the way you groove, oh, oh
Boy, you write your name, I can do the same
Ooh, I love the taste, la-la-la-la
All on my tongue, I want it (la-la-la-la)
Boy, you write your name, I can do the same
Ooh, I love the taste, la-la-la-la-la
All on my tongue, I want it
I, I feel like fuckin' somethin'
But we could be corny, fuck it
Sugar, I ain't no dummy, dummy
I like to say, "What if?", but if
We could kiss and just cut the rubbish
Then I might be on to somethin'
I ain't givin' you one in public
I'm givin' you hundreds, fuck it
Somethin' we just gotta get into
Sign first, middle, last, on the wisdom tooth
Niggas wishin' that the pussy was a kissin' booth
Taste breakfast, lunch and gin and juice
And that dinner just like dessert too
And when we French, refresh, gimme two
When I bite that lip, come get me too
He want lipstick, lip gloss, hickeys too, huh
Can you kiss me more?
