Colleagues commending me on a proactive monitoring project that took me months. Well worth the effort! Masks, not Venetian, not the ones we wear each day, but luminosity masks. Chris Knight and Lindsay Adler taught me so much today. The joy of playing. When my fingers moved along the strings of their own accord. Ah! […]
Shot my first First Holy Communion as main shooter. Big learning – Background, background, background! So many years in Spain and I never did go to a bull fight. Enlightening, especially since I got a rundown on all the traditions and codes of the game. Driving home via a new route. Past midnight, the mountain […]
Fr Ron celebrated 30 years of his ordination today. Such a glorious celebration. Such a lovely crowd. He deserves it all. For his dedication, much much more. Tried on several dresses that I’ve bought but never estreñad …. So eager for my little outings, if only for a chance to wear them 🙂 Met Bob […]
Woke up to a storm. A storm that brought memories of home and the incessant rain. My stream was filled with comments from people I barely know. Encouraging, positive, comments that made me want to go back out and shoot. It’s Photoshop Week on CreativeLive. Am amazed at how powerful Photoshop and Lightroom are and […]
A government worker who went the extra mile to get a typo fixed. I still have to wait another month, but the fact that she was kind, attentive, informative and empathetic makes the wait not seem interminable. As part of the “before challenge”, I was asked to take 10 photos in 10 minutes. Tried something […]
Waking up to rave reviews of a quick edit photo taken months ago. Over the moon! Came home to my purchase. Essentials, but I like them pretty 🙂 Chatty passengers who share their life stories in a few brief moments that we have together.
After months of waiting, my card has finally been approved. Buy yeah… another set of hoops waiting to be jumped through! Took down my linked in photo ages ago. Always wanted a more updated one, but never got around to taking a formal portrait. Can’t complain any longer. Makeup, simple dress, and lighting tips from Peter […]
Lasagña… hmmm… yummy as it could be. Filling. Over filling too. A friend came to visit with her dog. Been a long time since I’ve seen her. Felt good. So good that I gifted her a dress 🙂 Chocolates from a German lady in return for a Mother’s day wish. There is always a sweet […]
I was out in the garden and lo! clinging to the fence, in full bloom, pink roses on a creeper. Haven’t smiled so much on seeing flowers in a long, long time. Playing the harp, and finding it easier by the day. A long, luxurious day dedicated to me and all those silly little idiocies […]
Took the car to town the whole week, except today. The driver was surprised, quite pleasantly, when he picked me up. After chatting a bit, picking up other passengers and finishing our trip, his parting words were – “Don’t abandon us”. Nothing to put a 100-watt smile on like an unexpected pleasantry. Reached office to […]
