Grr…yrrrrg…
Must…take…pictures! So apparently a down side of the off season is that I don’t get to pick up my camera much. Well - I don’t HAVE to pick up my camera much. I realized this morning that I can if I want to, and I definitely want to. It’s been about 10 days since I photographed anything, and I’m getting all itchy, especially since the leaves are so stunning right now. I haven’t seen fall color this nice in the Seattle area in many, many years. I wonder what the magic equation is for awesome leaves.
I’m heading to the zoo today to spend a few hours shooting. It has a real purpose, too, beyond just being fun. I really NEED to get my butt in gear and get my notecard sets together and up on Etsy so I can make some scratch this winter. If I’m lucky I might sell a single story for less than $200.00, but otherwise I have virtually no income this winter (although I might get to shoot promotional pics for a cherry juice company! That ought to be fun! We haven’t even gotten to pay negotiations, though, so who knows if it will pan out). So notecards it is!
Then after the zoo I’ll be back to polish up The Conductor. I had my husband read it last night and I have to admit that the sincere enthusiasm in his voice when he gave me his feedback made me feel all girly and special. My heart beat a little faster to think that I can make a real impression on him. There’s nothing like impressing the guy you’ve got a crush on, is there? <3<3<3<3<3 I’m the luckiest girl in the world. My husband is the best.
Back soon with pics of animals and leaves.
