Things Are Looking Up

Summer is in full swing. People are friendlier. Friends are getting pregnant. Debts are being paid off. Our cool new flatmates have arrived. Work is constant & fun. Holidays are planned. Music is being played. Friends flickr & meet from all points of the globe. Life can be beautiful.

This photo is dedicated to my darling grandmother, who would have been 79 today.

Even after all the years i still miss your smile.

Wow, What a response!

Was feeling a bit down, but its always good to remember your nearest & dearest.

Have been banned from flickring tooooo much (when is that i ask?). My girlfriend likes some attention too!

A Big thank you to stvan4245, JWasson, jc.., inanutshell, James.Chen, mcvmjr1971, krwaltondce, lbisreverri, cyclic, foxp2, Andreas Reinhold, Kirsilouis, Mace2000, _Kasia, Pink Sherbet Photography, xamad, roscoe inc, u.linder, LuPi75, Mr Inky, Miss Aniela & Jean Albus for all the positive comments & faves. It’s really good to get feedback from you all (especially from such a talented bunch!)

@Kit: Yeh, i tweaked it a bit. I dont have that natural ability (like Tommy) to make sexy shots without any post production. Lightened some shadows, darkened the sky & defished for clean lines.

@raynong: Lucky its not pointing down!

@Josh Thompson: I use this nikon lens. It’s a gem!
