Here's My Job

This is my work place

Marilyn

This is an add to my Doll gallery.  It is a doll of Marilyn Monroe, taken by candlelight and by dipping the camera to the right

Night In The Neighborhood

We had a power outage here that lasted for two days.  The first night, Dale and I went walking around the neighborhood before he left for Philadelphia.  Some places had light and others, no.  It was rather random.  I started gimmicking around with the "night" settings on my new Lumix LX5 to prolong the exposure and twirled or moved the camera while the exposure was open.  I got some very nice results, I think, and it was fun to play :~)

Playing with exposure...

In the rain, bored

Some more new shots from the neighborhood

Here are some more new shots with my little Lumix :~)

Some new shots walking around the neighborhood

On Saturday I took my old Panasonic Lumix out for a walk.  The Sony a55 is a marvelous camera but it IS a DSLT and I missed the immediacy and smallness of the Lumix, even though it is only a point and shoot.  It has taken a lot of damn fine photos in its time and I like playing with it.  Here are some shots I got in Silver Lake

Dolls

I love dolls.  Always have.  Very compelling objects.  I intend a whole series on dolls, but here are a couple to begin with.
