Day 451 of 365 More. With all due apologies to Amaya, Marlo, Sarah and the others, meet my favorite model, Sunrise Adams. Ok, she would be, except that she has no idea who I am and has never posed for me. Given the way I behave, it might surprise people to know that I’m not…

Grasshoppers Mating

Grasshoppers Mating

When Grasshopper can make Lady Grasshopper scream his name while writhing in ecstasy without buying her a drink, he will be ready to leave the monastery

When I was waiting for Steph to come outside so we could go on our walk I happened to notice these two grasshoppers "doing it" by my pool.

My first thought: I have to go get my macro lens!

My second thought: I wonder if this will get my account banned again?

Day 372 of 365 More. Completing the first week of the second year. Not a whole lot to talk about today. Steph and I stayed in the house most of the day and watched TV. Then in the evening we went to the grocery store before heading over to friends’ house to watch preseason football…

Day 338 of 365 days. Today was pretty bittersweet. I actually had a great day. Steph and I drove out to West Virginia to visit Amaya. She and her roommate took us up into the mountains to hang out at a waterfall. It wasn’t really a photoshoot. More of a picnic. We took beer and…

Day 325 of 365 days. Had a bunch of phone interviews today with a company I used to contract for. May actually be close to a job now. May not. I guess it depends on how tomorrow in person interview goes. Anyway, to celebrate I went out cruising for chicks ran into three. A girl…

Day 314 of 365 days. For the last several years, I have promised myself that I would celebrate Juneteenth by doing something special. Or at the very least making an entry in my blog. But I always forget to. I’ve been completely neglecting my blog in favor of writing things here, so this year, I…

Day 313 of 365 days. Sometimes I feel like more than anything else, I’m keeping myself down. Despite praise by others I frequently don’t think my photography is very good (the same with my writing and pretty much everything else I ever do). Despite being pretty good at what I do for a "real job"…

Laurie in the window

Laurie in the window

Like most of my recent models, I met Laurie on Model Mayhem. I actually saw her as a preppy staff card type for my Tarot Set, but she told me she really wanted to try to be one of the sword cards. The more I talked to her, the more I liked the idea of using her there. She has a very versatile look and that ended up being perfect for the idea of the 3 cards, a reflection of the one suit in another.

And because I love this pic and I thought it would be cool to use 3 pics from the same shoot for all three CWD assignments, I am also using it as cwd223: U2. The song: Window in the Skies

Oh, can’t you see what love has done
To every broken heart
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
For every heart that cries
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
Love left a window in the skies
Oh, can’t you see what love has done
And to love I rhapsodize

Day 305 of 365 days. Yet another day. Yet another GFY from yet another job. Spent the morning being depressed about that, while working on tarot cards and other photoshoot stuff. Then, Steph asked me to drive out to her office and have lunch with her at Sree’s (one of our favorite Indian Restaurants) which…

Day 298 of 365 days. So the good news is I have not been hit by a bus, electrified by a fence or had an anvil drop on my head. The bad news is I haven’t won the powerball, people are still hungry, we are still at war, there i no cure for cancer and…
