Midnight found me in this room once recently. Hmmm… Yes, that was my reaction too. lol. Hubby had to do a late night server fix and he insisted I come inside this creepy warehouse. I was not immediately impressed. He told me there were things to see! hmmm… I never guessed it would be a secret parade!
Just shootin’ around the house…
•February 7, 2010 • 8 CommentsThis is probably my favorite way of shooting flower portraits… When the sun hangs low in the sky in that beautiful golden hour, the blossoms seem to fill with sunlight. Shoot in the direction of a shadow and BAM instant backdrop! No lightbox needed :) Nothing beats the sun’s glow…
BUT, do you know what is even BETTER than a flower lit up by the sun? Well do you? It’s a fuzzy cat on a cable box of course! :)
This is Tikki’s favorite spot in the whole wide world. She gets so scorching hot laying here I worry she may spontaneously combast one day. hmmmm….
Night Tree

Clouds, clouds, glorious clouds… Recent rain has brought us clouds :) I’m in love!
I have no idea where this spot is. lol. I had a small assignment tonight of shooting night images of a piece of property. On the drive home I impulsively pulled into a rest stop thinking I just had to get ONE shot of these clouds with maybe a tree or something :) I’m so glad I did. I rather like this tree.
Mirrored
•February 1, 2010 • 16 CommentsAnother one from my archives, and one you may have seen… but it is an image I like. I like that things are not exactly what they seem at first glance. I think it is interesting that it is an image of a building that you really don’t see. You see what it mirrors instead…
I shot this on my first and only trip to Vancouver, BC. How captivating to see so many buildings of glass.
Everyday.

•January 28, 2010 • 23 CommentsWhat a glorious night! This is another shot from the eve of Heaven’s Ignite.
Sorry I’ve been quiet but I have been sooo busy this week. I’m not complaining though, it’s been an exciting type of “busy” really. Thanks to my husband I got a little job with a fashion company here in San Francisco retouching the photographs from a recent photo shoot. How cool!! :)) The thing is, they are on a deadline which means I have been on a deadline too. I must say that after 2 in the morning it becomes rather dreary making people smooth and pretty, but I am happy for the opportunity. Next up, I must get in that studio!! I mean seriously, who wants to retouch someone’s ELSE’S shots?!! haha … But one step at a time…one step at a time…

•January 25, 2010 • 26 CommentsWhat inspired this scorching manipulation? I can’t rightly say. Words are not often my gift, and sometimes I just need to “show” what’s in my head, even if no one understands the message. Heck, I don’t understand the message. lol. But I can say I had a burning desire to create tonight, and fire is what came out.
