Oh Baby

Well today... er, tonight rather... I took some interesting shots.
My Beholder's sister collected herself a few shillings and squandered them away at a pARRRty shop, hiring out a wench of a costume. Ayyye. Me-harties. *Drinks rum from bottle*
...
Not entirely sure if I can actually consume intoxicating liquid.
Or liquid at all...
Or even consume?


Crap.


So back to important matters, Sits (the name of my body) powered on in a kind-hearted fashion, kickstarting me into shooting-mode! It hasn't been all that long since I was last snapping life, but that doesn't mean I get any less excited when the opportunity arrises. I just really love to shoot things.

BEHOLD!

Yup, she's a real beaut. Well-crafted and gorgeous to look at.

...

I'm referring to the costume of course. 

The colours were delicious to snap up! Just. So. Much. RED. I wanted to get in there and just....brrrrrhhhh...with all that red! 

But I digress.

My beholder and I both agreed that the location at which we reside (ie. home) doesn't have the best of backgrounds to work with. Then again, who said being multiCOLOURtral wasn't Australian? I suppose we make do. Or move out. But the dude that holds me in his sweaty palms, is seriously broke. 

So yellow it is!

Oh...so much yellow.

Anyway, it's a lot of fun working in low-light situations. Still...the shadows... a thing I believe He could improve. But don't let Him know I said that...He's sensitive to criticism. A bit of a girl really. Shh, remain inaudibly laconic. He can hear you...

Enjoying the memories of a bedazzling red harlot and her top(hatted) fellow,

My new body

Today my new body arrived. The people at "Mom's friendly delivery service" (aka, FedEx) kindly left it sitting at the front door. "Don't need to knock people! Just pop it outside where moth and rust decay and thieves come to steal".

What...tone down the drama?

Never.

Regardless of my poor body's cold first impressions of me, I think we're getting off to a better start. We match, you see. Designed to just ... 'click'.

He was unfortunately a little tired from his treacherous journey across the great blue. Knocked around by clumsy overworked postal servants, and battered by the cruel whims of turbulence. Alas, his batteries were charged, and he became quite lively.

Oh what a grand old time the two of us had. He told me to focus, and focus I did. BOOM. A perfect photo.

Hmm... Perfect in the sense that what you see, is what you get.

Clearly my beholder has some more work to do, on shooting things, that are actually interesting. 

Moving right along... 

I got to play with my owner's dog, Lollie, today. She playfully frolicked throughout the yard, often pausing to quite creatively, strike a pose. Precocious little pup.

It's great to get someone new. Knowing they'll hold onto you and never let you go. The Creator of these images is somewhat like that...A little bit clingy. In the end however, I wouldn't want Him any other way.

Cuddling my new companion,

The talking lens

Welcome

Hello and welcome to the unspoken words of a babbling lens.

I decided recently that my unattended desire for still images need no longer go unkindled. I have been disconnected from my body for far too long. Not literally of course...

Well actually...it's a little bit literal.

I think.

Whatever.

Truth be told, I don't have a superb eye for abstract imagery, breath-taking landscapes or picturesque portraits. I make no false assumption that I can take such incredible photo's. No, I just snap what I see. Life. Frozen instantly. Snap-frozen, you could say...like Talleys pea's. 

So if you like seeing what I see, stick around. Follow me as my Beholder walks me through the valleys and the shadows. Held close to His heart, with but a strap of faith, gracefully poised in His hand, ready to still another of life's great adventures.

I sincerely hope you come to like (and perhaps love) the life that I leave to thaw in your eyes.

From the first of many,

The talking lens
