| Your Photoshoot Meme |
[Dec. 14th, 2009|12:28 pm] |
Reply to this post (all comments are screened unless you specifically tell me to unscreen them) with your ideas on how you'd like me to photograph you. This is your idea on a photoshoot, so no need to reference anything from the previous post unless it really inspired you and you want to run with it.
Basically, I want to see what you think would make for a good photo or series about you. And I'll tell you what I think and if I'd be up for it.
You can check here for links to my photos to maybe get some ideas, inspiration, or to go, "No, he's just not right for me!"
Rules - If you're waiting on a reply to yesterday's meme, then don't post here with your ideas until after I have replied to that one. I'd like to avoid having my first reactions influenced by something you've suggested here.
(I have a couple of things that I need to drag myself out of bed to attempt to do today, so there may be delays on replies to those still waiting on yesterdays meme.)
By the way, if you had no intention of asking me how I would shoot you, but want to tell me how you'd like to be shot, just go for it. |

 Write to me if you'd like to know how I would like to photograph you. Don't tell me how you'd like to be photographed, it's my job to come up with something for you.
All your comments will be screened, so people will only see my replies to you. I will unscreen your original request only if you ask me to after I have replied.
Disclaimer time - I may need you to point me towards a recent photo of yourself since my memory for people's faces/bodies is often crap. Be warned, you may find the way I'd like to photograph you ridiculous, insulting, boring, obvious, exploitative, confronting, confusing, completely off the mark of how you see yourself, or completely uncreative. Worse still, I may not be able to think of anything for you. If I can't think of anything for you though, it probably means I just need to chat with you more, to spark some ideas.
Either that you or have no discernable personality.
Yes, I am mean. Tough it out, you bastards! |

Okay, so the other day I paid a return visit to my local shops, which have been mostly deserted for a few years now. Short version, company bought up the shops, wanted to tear them down to build units, wasn't allowed to. Fought it for ages before giving up. Had been meaning to check them out for ages, had a quick look the other night, then popped back during the day for a proper look.
There were a few stores, I went through them all, so there's a lot of pictures.

| Dot Points from the last couple of months |
[Jul. 25th, 2009|12:40 am] |
In the last week or so, I've had a small bunch of concerned friends contact me privately to ask if I was okay, as I haven't been posting much for a while. Everything's cool, I've just been balancing being busy with my limited mental/physical energy, and some things, like LJ, are tending to suffer.
Thank you for the thoughts! I have been wanting/trying to put stuff up, but just not finding the time. Now some quick dot points and a picture... ( Read more... ) |

Just some extra things I forgot to mention...
* While seated and holding Lex in the kitchen the other week, he head-butted me, driving my head back into the wall. *Whack* *Thud* "Nice one, Lex," I said, prompting him to do it twice more in rapid succession. *Whack* *Thud* *Whackthud!*
* Lex is now shit scared of my dalek.
* hehehehehe...
* Lex only started to properly crawl a week or so back. Within a couple of days of nailing crawling, he started to pull himself up to standing using things like the couch. A day after that, he started trying to actually climb up onto things like the couch. Too fast!
* Tomorrow night at 7:30 on SBS is the Botswana episode of Top Gear. If you've never seen the show, or have seen an episode but didn't like it, try this one. This is the one that turned Sharon into a fan. I've been married to her for over a decade, and I have literally never seen her laugh so hard for so long. She was in real pain by the end. Basically, if this episode doesn't get you in, Top Gear will never be a show you'd enjoy.
* She's sitting beside me and giggling now, just thinking about it.
* I have decided that at some point, within the next few years, I will have to get a theremin.
* Continuum 5 seems to be shaping up well. We're going, who else is?
* Lex also gets to listen to Uncle Terry on PaleoCinema fairly regularly.
( * Four Lex pictures below the cut... ) |

Having noticed that I have picked up a lot of Russian folks who have found me through the photo-blogs, I just thought I'd use Babelfish to say "Hello" to you all and thank you for your continued interest in my pictures.
So...
Замечающ что я выбирал вверх много русских людей которые находили я через фото-блоги, я как раз думал I' польза Babelfish d сказать " Hello" к вам всему и вы для вашего продолжаемого интереса в моих изображениях. Приветственные восклицания, Дэнни
Anyway, here are the first batch of photos from gutter_monkey's and my trip from Melbourne to Canberra. Some of these you will have seen on Scott's journal, and his facebook, but for the rest of you, here they are... ( 13 pictures below cut ) |

[Nov. 26th, 2008|02:45 pm] |
It's taken a couple of months, but I've finally gotten around to sorting the pictures from my last day on the train to Perth. A trip which was paid for by many of the people who read this LJ, so thank you once again.
Follow the links to see pictures from days one and two.
This day was the most interesting for me, because I got to stop at Cook, a town I've never been to. Yay! ( Lots of pictures below the cut... ) |

A brief post for the many, many people who said we couldn't travel to remote places with Lex.
Post-Melbourne trip, my son, at 8 weeks, has seen more of the country than most of the people who offered me this advice, and we aren't home yet. Interestingly we have discovered travelling with him so far inland is no different than travelling with him from Canberra to Melbourne was.
10,000 years ago we all used to be nomads, yet somehow we managed.
And I have the Belwood!
A quick selection of pictures of places he's been, below the cut.( Read more... ) |

Due to my various computer hassles, mixed in with being stroke boy, and being forgetful, I haven't gotten around to sorting/coverting these until now. Late nights with Lex can be good sometimes :)
This is the first day of travelling, and the pictures are in chronological order, so you get a sense of the journey...

Take a picture of yourself right now. Don't change your clothes, don't fix your hair - just take a picture. Post that picture with NO editing. Post these instructions with the picture
 
I cropped it since it wasn't as if there was anything interesting or incriminating outside the area you can see. Yes, it's another late night with Lex... Actually, if he ever grows up to have a Tonight Show, I may suggest that as a title... |
