I really need to start doing my blog entry earlier in the evening. I almost missed tonight because I was dozing off again. So just a quick word on how I do my pictures. It may seem trivial but it works.
Basically, my camera has a 10 second timer feature. So I activate that. Then I find a flat surface to set the camera on. Hit the button and take about 3 large paces back. Wait a moment and viola. Taking care to smile and hope myself upright. Then I download the pictures from the camera, and crop out from about mid chest level up to just above the head and just inside the outside of the shoulder.
And that's it in a nutshell...
I think that I shall never see
a poem as lovely as a tree
Or Buicks on a raft at sea,
or zombies come at three for tea
Or moose propose on bended knee
or elephant-sized bumblebee
At least I hope not!

I feel strongly that the visual arts are of vast importance. Of course, I could be prejudiced. I am a visual art.
