  • I think I've figured out how to wear a fob, or watch chain.
    I don't actually have one, but I made my own to wear with the vintage vest A gave me. (Menswear is so dang cool!)
    Also, my latest sewing project turned out well. Perhaps you'll see it sometime with the vest & chain - a skirt I patterned after one on All Saints..which, after you saw the original mine would only seem to be a distant relation to it, but...I like mine. Hundred-dollar tweed would have been nice, but...
    I can wear it with boots for a bit of much needed bad-ass - Doc Martens or Steve Maddens?
    Prolly the Docs.

    Also, why do hobbies have to be expensive? If I possessed the wherewithall I'd skip the Mountainboard for $200 & make my own, but at this point $200 might be the only way to go.
    Good grief. It's just a skateboard with brakes & mud tires.
    I'm hoping to get some surfing in (ha-ha) if we make it to Emerald Isle this year.

    Light & lighting have been playing a more central role in my photo-play. Rather, I've been paying them more attention.
    As 'advanced' as technology is, there doesn't seem to be a camera that is able to hold a candle to the human eye for efficiency, color & speed.
    Drat.

    Poor lighting is the bane of my existence. Adjusting the settings on a camera only goes so far.
    And that ridiculous blast of feebleness called the flash - whose bright idea was it to mount a little light on the top of the camera so that one could take pictures in a situation for which photography might not have been intended?

    Michael Muller - heard about him in an issue of Surfer magazine.
    These are a couple of his images I particularly love; they're all great, though. His black & whites - man.
