.....there just ain't a whole lot of shakin' going on.
It happens
It's okay.
I've been getting deeply back into an old favorite hobby - photography. I dug out a ton (and I do mean a TON) of COKIN filters & masks that I'd bought years ago when I had the very first Minolta XD-11 SLR to come out. They were buried up in the attic.
I think there's many things buried in the attic I've forgotten about.....hmmm! But, that would involve climbing stairs (like a ladder) in an UP position to a high place.....I sent the Lenster.
Now I have a SONY Alpha (first edition) so I bought a new Cokin Filter Holder and the correct adapter rings for my lenses and I'm good to go....go where I don't know- but I'm good !
This filter makes everything hazy except the very center spot.....I love this effect
This is actually a face fountain . Water runs down the side of her face.
One of the masks I tired is a keyhole
I can see where I'll be obsessed and busy with this stuff for the next few days.
You won't want to miss Debbie Tlach's incredible technique using Ranger's FROSTED Memory Glass. I have always told Debbie she is a genius...and she is !
She uses alcohol inks, black cardstock, white pigment ink , clear embossing powder and a heat gun to make something spectacular.
and also......let me use this space to turn you on to some other good sites.
My friends Stan and Russell at Twisted Papers are back in the groove. They sort of disappeared for a while but now....WOW. Catch their wonderful deals on collage images.
Check out Lynne Perrellas ETSY shop for some of her gorgeous handmade work
One of my personal favorites, always, is Corinne Stubson
See Claudines No Sew Purse on When Creativity Knocks - it's so adorable and so Claudine !
and this looks like a fun book I might want to buy. Anyone have it?

Thank you Suze!! You are absolutely TOPS on my list of women I love - in art and in life!!!!
