Willow Tree Angel. they are figurines that say so much without the face. I get these figurines for christina for special occasions and she gets them for me too. really love them they are amazing figures. mainly cause there is so much emotion and story behind every one of them. and they have no face. i think i really appreciate them so much cause in everyone of my drawing classes in college they taught if you can make the person understand and feel all the emotion before you draw the face you have done your job. a tilt of the head the angle of the hands its all added together to make the perfect emotion. well i just bought christina the one above for her Birthday. its a woman holding her pregnant belly. At first christina thought they were creepy which i can understand a person with out a face then they grew on her. once you study it and see all the feelings behind it you start to appreciate them. check them out.
So This is what happens when we have a half day of work on christmas eve. the whole thing was just i set up the camera and take pictures of scott he did it all off the top of his head. we didn’t think much out we just wanted to test it out. just incase you don’t know what you are looking at. this is stop motion it is all done with my new camera. i take a picture he moves a little bit take a picture and keep repeating. this animation for those of you that do know what you are looking at was about 410 frames and its running on 6 FPS. (not explaining.)
Yeah so i realized i have not even wrote on my blog what i got for x-mas. so i didn’t get my Nikon D40 for x-mas. I did get a Nikon D60. yeah i got the one above that. I have an amazing wife that got me this amazing camera. Its great i got the D60 with the Nikon VR 15mm-55mm lens & Nikon 55mm-200mm lens too. along oh thats not it people. I thought that was it but christina went and got me more stuff to go with my new Fancy & Dandy camera. she also got me a new tripod with is a good one to start out with. then she got me the camera bag i was really wanting the lowpro slingshot 200AW. This bag is amazing i love it its easy to use i can access all the things in my bag with out taking it off it just slings around to the front and easy to open and access.
so then i was like YAY! but the kit she got me also included a year subscription to PC Photo. something to help me learn how to use the little things like photography. ha ha. but i know you already know how much I love photography and this is my ticket into making a hobby into a obsession. he he. so my wonderful wife got me all these things so i have something really good to take pictures of my wonderful child that will be coming to our lives in a few months. so be prepared to start seeing me posting pictures and random things of photography now.
So i am still up in the air about this but i don’t know i will have to see how it goes. But i am going to start writing a journal everyday… yeah. i don’t know if its going to work out either but i am going to use it as a challenge. my grammar is sooo horrible which i am sure that you know if you have ever truly read anything i have posted. but the biggest thing is my spelling. i want to improve it and relying on spell check all the time is not that helpful its more of crutch. But I really don’t know if I will like it or love it. i figured if i write something in it everyday no matter what and try to fill a page with is maybe 75 words. (not very big pages) It would help and refuse to spell things wrong. use a dictionary or word-speller just as long as i write it and learn it. i figure that will help me in some way. plus this coming year there is going to be a lot of things happening in my life. Life changing things that i may want to remember. plus i am not the most …. what’s the word….. eloquent person when it comes to words. so hopefully this might help as well. so the more and more I am thinking about the more i like the idea but we will see. i might do it for a week and quit who knows.
New years resolutions. i love them just for the simple fact its an excuse or reason for people to change something about them selves. I guess its crazy to think about the whole thing. the one holiday that has no meaning or purpose except.
Guy 1: Hey! its a new year lets get drunk.
Guy 2: Ok.
Guy 1: (after the hang over.) Wow that was horrible i want to never do that again.
Guy 2: oh yeah! you ought to make that a resolution.
BAM! the birth of new years resolutions. I just always think its funny that what people want to do in the new year. its like I’m fat i want to lose weight for my resolution. cause quite honestly any other time of the year there isn’t a reason for me to loose weight. i have to do it in the beginning of the year….. yeah. can’t do it cause your over weight and you want to do it just for your self. NO! its my New Year’s Resolution! Its just funny to me maybe you never thought of it the way i do. or you just think im a jerk. no matter what its funny to me. yeah well there are things i plan on doing this year so here is my list.
