Week #29 Nature - Last of the evening sun. OK, I left this to the last minute again. Got to playing around a little with shots of the clouds, until the mosquitoes started to attack!

Week 18 - 6-13 May 2015
Here's this week's offering. Shot this at the Miss Universe Australia Victorian Finals. Another one off the bucket list... ish. Just wished I had better lighting, not that the stage lighting was bad, just wanted more control. The kind of control that a couple of strobes would have helped. Anyway, I'm hoping I'll get a fewer bites at a runway shot soon. More next week.
why hello, new camera! :)
i haven't decided his name yet, but i will work on that!
God is amazing, did you know that? Do you know how much you're blessed by Him? I've been floored by Him recently. And I don't want to be in any other place than here.
I'm going on a mission trip in Arizona in two weeks......................................... :D
If anybody out there has looked at this, and has had the patience to read this far, can you please pray for our group while we're out there? :)
I'm still pretty uninspired. This sucks.
If you have any suggestions for naming this sucker, please lemme know! :)
DUDEOHMYGOSHLIGHTBOX.
My goal for this year to is to visit the lighthouses within 3 hours driving distance and photograph them at different times. This is Nubble Lighthouse in York, Maine. It was snowing and very cold at the time of this exposure.
Here we go!
We start week 1 with the "Gold thingy" from Ryan (eldeeem)
Please read the rules!
Part restricitons:
- color is irrelevant
- the sides have to be built with 1x2s (you can use plates or tiles instead of jumper plates)
- the hidden sides look the same as the visible sides
If you solved it, show it privately to me and you can start solving the Follow-up challenge
Have fun!
The aim for this photo was to add a 'fall' effect on the photo. As the photo was based around a forest and leaves I thought this would be a reasonable edit. Starting off I used 'Selective Colour' and changed the greens and the yellows until the colours of the photo starting being more similiar to those in autumn. After, I then added levels and colour curves to get an appropriate colour correction. After this I realised the grass was at an unrealistic colour, so I decided to overlay the grass with a green brush and then changed the opacity. I feel this edit has worked perfectly to show off autumn colours.
School will start tomorrow. I'm very very unmotivated. It looks like I wont have much free time because my week will be full with appointments and I have no idea how i can handle them. Yesterday I made a little plan and wrote everything down - it looks like I have to be at two places at once. I'm afraid that I might have planned way too much. Hopefully i can get along with it.

This is my lovely friend, Kim, who is a talented hairstylist and a total babe. We have been talking about having a photo shoot for what seems like forever. We finally did... and it was amazing! I have so many more great shots from our shoot. I promise I won't go crazy and post them all.
alice and i were on a mini-vacation this past weekend in the appalachian mountains of western maryland. i was a bit worried we wouldn't get to go, after the discovery of the bone at the end of last week... but since alice was feeling so well, we went ahead and took the trip and i am so happy that we did! it was a fantastic time!! we went hiking at antietam national battlefield on the way out, to break up the six hour drive.
sunday morning, we competed in the dockdogs competition at 10:00 (alice jumped 17 feet 9 inches... a new personal best!) and then we went hiking in the potomac-garrett state forest where dogs are allowed to be off leash. yayyy!!! it was a beautiful, peaceful place and we were once again the sole users on the trail.
monday morning we did dockdogs again and alice did 15 feet and some inches on both jumps, which meant we were still in line for the finals! we stayed around, and sure enough we made it in as the fourth place team. her two jumps in finals were in the 16 foot range, not good enough to win but we did get seventh place, a lovely rosette, and a bag of goodies. i was so proud of my little mutt dog... of the 24 dogs who competed in finals, she was by far the smallest and one of only two mixed breeds. the other 22 dogs were all labrador retrievers! wait, maybe one was a golden retriever... can't remember. anyway, they had a very nice awards ceremony, and then we were back on the road for the long journey home, over the mountains and across the bay.
i took this photo during the break before finals, when we had some time to kill. i had been sneaking alice over to this grassy area all weekend to play ball or just have some time to relax outside, and kept admiring these cute little daisies growing there. i haven't made a daisy chain in years, but it was just as easy and fun as ever!! while everyone else was back at home sweating in the 90+ degree heat and humidity, alice and i were enjoying the comfort of the cool mountain air. i hope to go back again someday!
oh, as for the bone... we repeated the xrays today and see no evidence of it! i honestly have no idea where it went, as i was picking up after her on all potty breaks this weekend and checking for bone. i am guessing it was digested or broken down into smaller pieces and moved through undetected. hopefully i have learned a lesson from this, i have been watching her more closely when she is outside.
it's been quite a crappy week, monday i had to go to the dentist (after being in agony last week), luckily i didnt need root canal (woohoo!!), they just gave me a filling :o) after the last time i needed a root canal (after biting into my tongue stud!!), i've been thinking all week about taking my tongue stud out for good, the decision kinda got taken out of my hands on friday when i accidentally swallowed it oooops!! its now healed up, it feels weird not having it there, i've had it in for 14 years but at least it wont damage my teeth :o) i now only have 10 piercings....
*i've also been full of cold this week and just felt like crap :o(
we haven't had too many annoying people in work, i saw a woman open a can of coke and just as i was about to tell her off for opening it before paying for it, it squrted out and went all over her hehe :o) she looked so shocked and was about to put it on the shelf and leave it when she saw me watching her so she had to pick it back up hehe, that really made me chuckle, i didnt even get her a tissue, thought she deserved it ;o)
*i had a weird guy asking if we get busy on bonfire night!!!
*helen had a customer asking if bird seed was suitable for pigeons, hmm last i heard a pigeon was a bird....
* had a lovely guy come in work saying i was doing a good job and that i was very smiley, bless him :o)
*megan turned 11 :o)
* took this shot yesterday in the woods, i found a cool new little spot :o) and yes, i did lay on the wet ground and get covered in dirt (while holding slaines lead and making sure she didnt wander into the shot), hope no one saw me hehe :o)
At Stanford tonight… with teams from all over the world.
When I got up to speak, I told them we just had to capture the stage sight for the blog, and so I asked everyone to smile for the camera. =)
Carl Schramm, CEO of the Kauffman Foundation, stated that today’s U.S. college students will have an average of four different jobs between the ages of 22 and 30, and 70% of them will start a new company at some point in their careers.
Here is the Stanford agenda for the week.
Resolution HR699 established the national entrepreneurship week.

Weinig verschil met vorige week.
Alleen het weer was beter in week 3.
Ik denk dat het echte werk zich momenteel voornamelijk achter het witte doek afspeelt.
In dit album "Amare" staan alle foto's die ik tot nu toe gemaakt heb van het bouwproces. Inmiddels 166 foto's inclusief deze. Ik ben hiermee begonnen in 2018, week 14 en blijf hiermee doorgaan tot aan de opening.

Olive turned 2.5 this week. Here is a glimpse of who she is in this moment:
Olive is still petite. She’s gained almost two pounds since her 18 month appointment a year ago, bringing weight up to 26 pounds.
She’s getting a little taller and measures 35 inches.
She wears 18 month shorts still since her waist is so tiny. I tried putting 18 month jeans on her and while they were still loose in the waist, they’re finally too short in length. She wears 24 month tops and dresses.
She finally had her first hair cut. She recently began twirling her hair again. She likes to have her hair up and in the morning she tells me how many ponytails she wants that day. She also loves clips and bows.
Actually, she loves all accessories. She likes putting on tutus, necklaces, sunglasses and purses. She still enjoys going into my closet and playing dress up with my clothes.
She’s potty trained but has regressed this summer in pulling her pants back up on her own.
She’s still a pretty good eater and will try almost anything at least once. The other night she downed a whole bowl of miso soup with tofu on her own. Her favorite foods are homemade tomato sauce (with or without pasta), turkey meatballs, broccoli, berries of all kinds (except raspberries), guacamole and chicken noodle soup.
Breakfast and dinner are her biggest meals while lunch she prefers to eat more bento style.
We still limit television to about 40 minutes or less a day. Some days we never turn on the television and other days she’ll watch more than we intended. After having minimal screen time before she was two, Olive has grown to really enjoy watching tv but only if it’s Peppa Pig.
When she watches television, besides reading books, it’s the only time of the day when she is quiet and still. She sits on her spot on the couch, pulls her blanket around her and zones in.
Olive loves playing with dolls, figurines and animals. She makes up stories and will play with her doll house or tree house for long stretches of time.
If she doesn’t have a “doll” around, she will personify any object. Recently she was drawing with colored pencils in the backseat and she started giving them voices and a story line.
She’s loosened up a lot and likes to run around and dance and be crazy. But she also likes her personal space and likes to play along side the action as much as she likes being in the middle of it.
She talks about ballet all of the time. I really hope she likes ballet as much as she imagines she will.
She can be whiny, demanding and bossy. She hates to be told that it’s time for bed and she’s not a fan of conversations she’s not actively part of.
She loves to sing. She was singing in the check out line in Target the other day and a woman asked what she was singing. I said that she was singing a song that she just made up and the woman smiled and said it was a sign of a joyful child.
Olive’s teachers at camp told us that she was funny, helpful and very loving.
