Testing and chasing the sun!

Well I was making shapes today! Hurray :D
Its been awhile since I actively thought "I'm going to try something new" - usually it just kind of happens. I rarely photograph well from behind but I actually really rather like these. I had been wanting to do these as a self portrait but don't have a tripod which will stand 15 feet in the air so I had to ask Rory to hold the camera. We tried some front on shots but with me being limited in space it wasn't working at all.

Anyway I like them, its nice to do something a little different.

We also popped out this evening (although technically now with it being 1.21am it was yesterday evening).. This location is only 5 miles away, I'm sure we will be going back. We were fighting a little with the sun, it was running away behind the hill so we didn't have much time to mess around.

First two edits are mine.. The last one is Rorys.

I love the shape in this one, so much so that I really don't mind the grass covering my face..

Came across this hold tree, I love trees which have fallen over and exposing the roots we normally don't get to see. There was a little patch of light as well as some shadows from the tree's opposite so I thought it would be worthy of a little shot..

It was actually sunny but really chilly this evening, perhaps its the last day of summer. I hope not anyway!

Woah, only just noticed this is maybe the most images I've posted from a 20 minute shoot in my life.
I'm almost done.

This is an edit I done from a shoot last weekend when we were fighting with the sun - or begging it to stay where it was and not run away from us.

From this afternoon, we have had this recent collection of hats for 2 weeks now. We actually had to ask for a bit of an extension. So I'm glad it didn't rain all day:D

I have another small set with another hat but not got round to editing any yet, and they are quite similar to the nude shots above - only with hat and clothes on rather than skin.

Time for me to be off.. Bed is calling!!

Sky Trip with Simon P

Well after my week in Glasgow I was off to Skye with Simon :-)

The plan was basically to do as many nudes as possible, sadly Skye is not such a fantastic location to do lots of nudes without being spotted. Seriously we clocked up almost 1,000 miles going down roads that werent even on the sat nav hoping that we would find someplace off the beaten track away from tourists but they seemed to follow us. At one point I spotted some amazing looking rocks, it was raining and there was nobody about, the second I got to where I wanted to be a bloody car slowed down then decided to stop and have a look (my guess is they presumed we had found some nice spot worthy of a stop off). Buggers!

The place we stayed in was crazy, I thought Skye was a peaceful island full of pensioners but I was very very wrong thinking that. The hotel/hostel was noisier than Govan on the night after an old firm match, Also learned that there are police in Skye who are rubbish at splitting up people who are fighting.

We kept passing a massive waterfall. I was dying to get a shot with it but there was always bus loads of tourists and with it being on the main road it would be impossible to have done a nude undetected during the day.. So we got up at 5am on our last day to nail it

Artpunk - Day 1

Easier to post everything we done in days rather than in one massive blog.
I've still not managed to figure out how to play about with images even though both Adam and Simon tried to help me out so I will do it the only way I know how (even though it seems like a lot of messing about)

We started playing about with torches and I had to give my 2 new tutus a little airing, then we done some nudes too :D

Fozzies cat "Muse" even got in on the art nude posing :P
