Earth Day

Earlier this week was "Earth Day", and I've been waiting all week for decent lighting to take the photo. I had wanted Byuri in her native Cheyenne regalia, complete with new hair-pipe breast-plate, in among the pure blues and greens of a field full of scillas.  It was overcast first thing this morning, so we rushed over to the old orchard, and I finally got my photo.

Now that I'm finally finished the Celtic commission, I'm going to take some time for myself.  I have several costumes I'd like to make for my own dolls, and there's several "special day" photos I'd like to take too. There's a short story I'd like to shoot, and I still need to take the final photos from the story I started last spring on our trip to the Pacific. Then there's finishing the trip photo album from last spring too - hopefully before we leave on our next road trip.  I'd like to finally photograph the old dolls I'm going to put up for sale, and post them too. And if I get inspired, I'll make some costumes for sale.

Forgot to mention that two of my photos are among the ten finalists in this year's Springbok  photo contest. I'm hoping at least one of them ends up as a puzzle, but don't dare show them at this point just in case neither wins. I'm personally voting for the Christmas ornament image.
