108/365 - #%@$ I'm so tired. Yet I'm trying to think of something life-changingly profound to blow your minds with. I hope I can succeed.
Shot my first wedding today/night. Ugh. Work. It was ALOT of work. And I did not charge nearly enough, even with it being my first. I learned alot, yeah yeah...but still. I undercut my work and abilities very much. Now not looking at all the shots yet, I may be lying.
"...I'm feeling the same way all over again..." Yeah I'm listening to this right now...and the lyrics are fitting to my experience with my love life again. It's like I enjoy feeling like crap due to my expectations. So I hung out with Kerry again the other day (Kerry is an ex-bf whom I see on a regular basis and yes, we continue to flirt...even though he "can't handle the age difference"...supposedly. ugh.) Whatever. So anyway, I go back there one more time...expecting something to have changed. And I hate myself for doing that. I know better. I (think I) know he does not want to commit...and I want more than he is willing to give right now. *sigh* but everytime I go there thinking I can be unemotionally involved. I've not to this day been able to not have feelings for someone I am close with, why would that change now?
I bet ya didn't know you were going to get a cliche-ish earfull about my current self-imposed crisis in the love arena didja? Oh well, it is what it is.
I did a good job at the wedding. I danced. I heard a great message at the conference I was at after the wedding, and I did what I said I was going to do. All day.
And I didn't smoke. (I'm surprised I'm still stopped...) No reason to start after this many months...but sometimes it sounds like a good idea.
<3 you guys. And the title means that I sigh, yet why should I when I can see what is going on :) Why the self-imposed crisis? And if it's going to be then hey, cool, just don't make it a part of my identity. I can screw things up but don't have to be a screw-up :) That was an easy read, didn't say too much...but was an easy read :)

We all have our spots and all of Honey's are in the sun!

My new husband (it's still a novelty saying that) sat on the window ledge of our hotel room in Venice. And no, he's not trying to escape...
It was a very very very nice trip, if a bit too hot.
My new mate GT - couldn't get much nearer without being indoors! One handed shot, sat on the internal bay windowledge with a cactus plant poking me in the back!
After a great tit visiting the past two years and eating from my hand, this fella started on Tuesday. No messing about, I put out my hand, it came to me straight away. Now it flies in from across the road straight to my hand or from the tree in the garden and often will just sit and choose which mealworm it fancies, adjusts it in his beak, gets another - sometimes a third before flying off into the thick of the trees across the road.
Our wren is nesting in a 'robin rooster teapot' out the back and still feeding from my hand too.
Robin baby on the garden yesterday, Jays still coming for their peanuts... Happy days!! :-)
I would have missed this fellow if Monika hadn't pointed him out to me. There we were, just minding our own business taking photos of stuff; it's not nice being spied on!
One also wonders how friendly the occupant of this apartment must be. Most people put their flowers out on display; this one puts out all their impressive succulents.
Pans on a window ledge at Canons Ashby House.
Canons Ashby House is a Grade I listed Elizabethan manor house located in the village of Canons Ashby, about 18 km south of the town of Daventry in Northamptonshire, England.
The house has been owned by the National Trust since 1981 when the house was close to collapse and the gardens had turned into a meadow. Canons Ashby had been the home of the Dryden family since its construction in the 16th century; the manor house was built in about 1550 with additions in the 1590s, in the 1630s and 1710.

Saw this peacock sat on a window ledge at a local country park in the sunshine of a beautiful October day 2010. The bird's looking a bit scraggy though at the moment.
This pigeon is watching me very carefully from a safe distance.
Notice the irridescent feathers on its neck and chest.
I love sprouting seeds, beans and lentils and they are so healthy. I sprout them in jars on the kitchen windowledge.
A giant lion was on the sunny ledge of a window, rolling around sunning himself like one of our cats. April 2013

Lilac towel out to dry on on the window sill / window ledge of a cream coloured facade in Gloucester Street, Brighton, East Sussex. Atmospherically lit with slanting blue shadows.
I've seen pictures of this place from a couple of local photographers and so decided to check it out.
In the end, I freaked out. Once I got inside, I left my camera bag on a thick windowledge. When I came out the bag was off the ledge and on the floor. It couldn't have fallen off, the bag was open and all the bits would have fallen out.
So, I ran off as fast as I could and I'll not be back.
Built between the two World Wars, this smart Art Deco style villa in the inner northern Melbourne suburb of Essendon has stained glass windows featuring a fan or sunburst pattern; a motif very much in keeping with the less cluttered lines of the 1920s and 1930s.
Strobist Info: SB28 camera right in a gridded softbox. Bare SB28 on the windowledge concealed behind the model to create the pool of light. Using ISO400 to get the windows to blow out

or should that be twit-two?.. wait a second. it's an owl goes twit-two, right? oh. well, here's a pigeon. i imagine he's contemplating suicide.
this was taken through a window in a coffee shop in nottingham, hence the funky patterns and reflections.
Well then. It was cloudy every night all week, until yesterday. I cloud-watched for two hours and then around midnight it cleared almost entirely. A few minutes hunting with binoculars picked out the comet, somewhat fainter than on Monday. Lesson learned, I went straight for the Gorillapod-on-windowledge and hammered away for an hour.
I took many serviceable photos in the 3–5 second range, but chose this and one other to work on in Photoshop and post here. As usual, Roger N Clark's curves techniques for adjusting colour balance and improving contrast helped me produce a pretty good result.
I shouldn't be, for I've been interested in astronomy forever – and I remember reading excitedly about the "next visit of Halley's Comet due in 1986" – but I'm still amazed at how long the comet's tail is, and I tried to select a couple of photos to do justice to it.
