    I am terrible at keeping secrets, it's been torture not to post here! Looks like shatch is leveraging the cold winter in his shot...eh?

    Here's a little pixel peek of mine...

    Torture and fear for me! Fear that someone will say "you better keep shooting!". lol3.gif Fun to see you back on the streets, Lynne. I like the drama from the peek I am getting.

    After all my "venting" I managed a few possibilities. Still want to do a portrait, though if I have time. I can't make up my mind on these. I guess that means I haven't captured my best contender yet! But I'm leaning towards the first.

    Each of these has some fun tone and lighting to them. I especially like the tree series...but I haven't seen the rest of #1 yet.

    I'm wondering if this was a good idea. It is almost torture instead...just seeing a peak creates more desire...uuuugh! I love it!

    Look at the lighting on that...Sherstone, this is great.

    Tessa, is it today you meet with your model?

    I just called her and cancelled - I'm so bummed. This snow storm doesn't seem to be in my favor. That scene doesn't work as well with snow in it. I'm sitting here trying to brainstorm a good winter shot.:nah
    Love to dream, and dream in color.

    Sorry about your weather cancellation. It seems that you had a couple of other strong photos in the works already as well. Good luck with your new direction.

    All is quiet as the end draws nigh. Qualifiers carefully holding their breath as they tweak, and retweak their photos in search of the perfect image. Sleep evades each as "what if I...", or "how about...", "maybe I should just reshoot! Uuuugh!!" spew from their mouths awaking those in the home who dearly plead again...please go to sleep or go outside so we can. It's no use, you awaken again and run to the computer to see if there was a new "Sneak Peak" or maybe even someone who was lucky enough to come up with an entry may have posted their photo...but nothing. Time creeps slowly along. Work isn't work anymore, it is in internet surf for ideas as well as DGRIN checking. NeilL, I think we need a "Twas the night before..." poem.

    Just four more days!!! What am I thinking...then the real consuming action begins. I need an iphone so I can keep current with the forum!!

    Alright, I think we need to start a Dgrin anonymous. Anyone willing to be the leader?

    Wonderful poem, I could use a prayer to as I have not one image yet.
    Absolutely everything I have planned, place, people, etc, etc has not taken place. I am not complaining, not having a pity party either, I am just very determined.

    For all of you that do have shots your tweaking or let peaks out it has certainly been exciting. I share your constant checks on dgrin. I lay awake at night thinking of shots or places to go. My husband to says aren't you done yet? Get back to bed as the only light is illuminating from my PC.

    I wish you all good luck as things are looking great in the peaks I have seen.
    Have a wonderful day everyone and keep shooting, I know I will. smile:D

    Peace, gail

    Happy Valentines Dayiloveyou.gif

    Will you autograph copies for DGRINNERS? Who will take your photo for the dust jacket?

    Honestly, where did you get your talent from? It seems to flow with near automatic prose?

    In a lighter vein -



    “Twas the night before…”


    What are these portrait nits?
    These bodies in bits,
    these landscape snippets,
    cityscape lickety-splits,
    crumbs of composite
    hominy-grits?

    Gentle Reader…

    All these partial,
    cryptic submits
    are the frantic,
    manic
    sneaks and peeks

    of LPS Finale-ists!
