far too much time went into drawing and cutting these out... :) note to self...lighting smoke pellets indoors is not a good idea...

*inspired by the work of the wonderful Thomas Allen :)

Only 300 more days to go!

Today I had the pleasure of having the very beautiful Ceilidh modelling for me for my fairytale shots, she was totally amazing!!!
I'm putting this up because I love it. I'll process my next one to fit in more with my other shots in the set when I have a little more time. Thanks again Lola and Ceilidh we had a great day :)

I was very proud of myself I managed to make this cloak in 15 minutes before we met up.. although I must mention it's pinned together rather than stitched :)

I re-read Dick Whittington and his Cat just a little while ago, it actually brought me right back to childhood.....I remembered how much I hated the fact that Dick sent his much loved cat on a ship to far away lands, in my own head as a kid Dick either went with his cat or he sailed back and got him...I wasen't too bothered if he ever made Lord Mayor of London or got the girl all I was interested in was the cat :)

Taken today in the Phoenix Park, Dublin. It was grey and overcast but I think it added to the mood :) I think I'm going through a mild crystal ball addiction.....
By the way this was taken in the same spot a few moes after this from Scott :)
