Dusty Day

Dust…

So…much…dust…

Yesterday was incredibly windy and dust was everywhere for most of the afternoon and of course I had to take some photos! The colour of the sky was just bizarre and as I stood on the foreshore taking these photos it started to rain, but because of the amount of dust it kind of rained mud, lol. It was an odd day to say the least.

I was at home watching the colour of the sky change and it was the same as it was back during the Ash Wednesday fires (read about it here), mind you I was all of four years old at that time yet I still remember it clearly.

You can normally see clearly to the other side of the bay…

Sunrise

I got up before the sun rose today which was really quite silly since we had a late night last night and a pretty big day yesterday, but I am really glad I did. As I walked into the kitchen and looked out to the east, I saw the most beautiful sunrise and had to take some photos! I love being up early to watch the sun rise but usually I don’t have time to enjoy it let alone stop and take some photos, thankfully this morning I did. ^^

 

Princesses

A week or so ago, my husband and I set up our studio and invited some lovely ladies from our Church to come and have their photos taken – wearing my costumes! (I’m in the pink dress in the back). My hubby took all the photos and all us ladies just posed and looked pretty for the camera! We’ll probably post more photos at a later date, but I thought I’d at least show one of the group shots and one of me.

Man it was just awesome to see all my creations being worn at the same time. You can see each of the costumes (and more besides) on my website if you’re interested.

Anyhoos, sorry for not posting too much this week. I’ve been in a real writing mood, so art has been placed on the back burner as I work on a manuscript I should have finished long ago.

Also, I’ve transferred the lines for my “HoneyD” artwork to acrylic paper and I hope to at least get him started over the weekend. He’s gonna be A4 now which is roughly 8×11 inches. Will post progress shots as usual as I go. <3
