Mr. Bird Man:

Records!

Another reason why music is waaaay better than food:

(Clockwise from top left): Devendra Banhart, Les Baxter, Isaac Hayes and "The Shaft Soundtrack," Augustus Pablo, my first break record (exciting!), and another Les Baxter- this time the "Hells Bells" soundtrack.

Expansion of my family

I purchased some new old portraits to put on my wall. I am always looking for the most awkward pictures at antique stores, which I affectionately name and immortalize.

The men on the bottom and left are Mr. Flannigan, the Reginald Esquire III, and the Captain.

Earrings

So I made some more earrings today... I'm going to give them away as presents.

Obligatory self-indulgent shots of my babies :D

Trip to the cemetary

Mackenzie and I went to the Old Shasta cemetary. I was planning to do some long exposure shots but the light was too bright (we got there at 4.) I shot the long exposure shots at f/22, 1" exposure, ISO 100. It was a ridiculous amount of fun making her run around like a crazy person in the cemetary... but only a few shots worth showing:

I'm so restless since coming home. I've been trying to do some photoshoots, but appear to have lost my touch. Maybe I am too critical now. I think the overwhelming course load and one-track state of mind has left my brain only capable of doing scholastic things. I sit down to draw and nothing really comes out. There are so many creative things I want to do, and have been sketching in my book but I can't find my muse when the time comes.

Anyways... here is my latest photoshoot... I am marginally satisfied with the outcome. However a strange light refraction in the first 3 shots (above Mackenzie's head) appear to look like faces. Kind of creepy but interesting.
