The idiot with the pumpkin :P

I'm short for words, because nice things are going on and I'm too busy to write about them - though I probably should, for posterity :P A picture is said to speak a thousand words - and here are twelve. ;) Lyra trying to manhandle a spherical object. Gave up after an hour and a case of diarrhea. Loser :P

The pretties...

The problem with perfection is that once you've sampled it, you can never be calm around flaws again....

Eve of Cleves' official comming out :))

It was such a lovely shoot :D So addictive. Can barely feel my legs by now, having spent the entire day editing the RAWs.. RAWS are DA LAW, btw. And the whole Photoshop expirience is just--- well, as frustrating as it is rewardings :D Andreja came with three bags full of clothes, make-up, jewelry, her own coffee and water and all the right colors :) Rested, appologetic about the one zit she sported - and the lady has a make-up artistry  training, so all I had to do was point and she followed. It was raining, meaning my the light was shit, but the boys (well, the man and the she-rabid-beagle) were out hunting while I assembled the impro studio. For four hours we danced around, me bumping into my own furniture, she trying not to smile too much and we eventually had 470 photos - and it took three people to select the precious ten percent :D 

                Man, this feels so good. Nothing that feels this good can ever make me rich and famous :

The first semi-pro family photoshoot, a cousin's commission... (Unfinished... too tired :) But happy..

Coffies of today :)

Loads of stuff going on. I am keeping a timetable again, after a while... This new machine is making me speedy :D Of course I have two pressing illustration matters and two photo shoots scheduled at the same time, while the rain is falling and I am dragging my crazy doggie around (actually, read that in reverse :D)

... and the ones in the middle :)

Oddly enough, I'm starting to prefer the deep, dark colors on this camera.. And now I know that for 25 pictures (about 10% of the taken), I spent the entire morning editing..... Well, now I know.

..the dark ones...
