She is pretty cool. I wish Pullips had this kind of sturdy articulated body.

Dunno where THAT week went
Snapshot time with Noelle on the kitchen counter. Typical light-painting session turned into 31 shots to get a few with the right lighting.

You are a light-painting master! This pic is a perfect blend of pretty and spooky!

Love the moisture drops on the petals.

The velvety darkness in the background effectively sets off the figure.

The way you avoided overeksposing that silvery-white hair is amazing!

Just the right amount of almost-light in the eyes -- revealing enough detail to make them look alive while maintaining an aura of mystery.

Really fun shot!

[Alliecat]

I'm glad you like it.  I wasn't quite thrilled but I guess I like them better after looking at them for a while.  I'd just finished watering.  And I didn't use the photos where the clutter behind her showed up!

... F---, it's dark down here!

[davidd]

Wait... are you in a cave? Or... were you in a cave; I'm assuming you got out.

Are you camping? As winter sets in? In Canada? I thought Neytiri and Jake preferred warm climates.

I'm not sure what's going on here, but it looks like adventure, for sure!

[Alliecat]

We ALL prefer warm climates around here.
I think we're in the wrong place
Definitely not a camper either!

Early for pic-a-week this week. It's raining (FINALLY!?!!; quite a few folks still have no water -- some, since, like, August), and the light wasn't very good there, but if I waited the mushroom is likely to either be done or get eaten by slugs. So here's our resident botanist Miki in a quickie snapshot.

[davidd]

A fungus the size of her head... and that's saying something when you're talking about Pullip dolls, even Pullip Minis!

Fun little scene, and what a strange and remarkable find she's found!

[Alliecat]

I was shocked to see that mushroom had ex-panded its top to something like 4" across; I thought it would just stay like that... but all I found at that point was the slug-chewed and rain-melted remains, so, good thing I shot the pic when I did. Now there's just a weird little hole in the ground with a few white threads in the bottom, where the stem came up.



Took a quick break from cleaning up garden boxes to get a few pix of Celeste in the last bits of light.

[davidd]

Celeste looks so cool! If I were cool enough, that's someone I'd want to hang out with.

The hair is perfect, just the right mix of neat and messy, of casually windblown and brushed.
