Bloody Christmas Lights!



PS: The picture quality is so much better than this on the hard drive so I'm not sure what happened here? Poor image compression effect by blogspot?

Mini Me






Thanks to my sister and her creative doll making skills and a local cartoonist for allowing to use the cartoon face, I now have my very own action (for want of a better word) man.

Boo




Me trying to get into the spirit (pun not intended) of Halloween night. Mind you, it would be somewhat less sad if this isn't actually a real mask.

All White On The Day




I used pieces of white A4 paper for the cut out sections, thus no photoshop-type layering process were involved in the making of these photos.

What with the advent of smart mobiles, who still uses electronic organisers these days.

Double Rainbow

Dog Days






Met up with a couple of people who both are dog owners. That gave me an excuse to take some canine-related shots, especially as Summer is hanging on by it's fingernails as the first photo shows.

Straight To Sleep Mark II

Ever since I have lost my pet black cat, Chad, next door's black cat, Bandit, has taken to spending more time in my house than next door!
  Today, I caught him napping on my bed and that was when I wanted to re-enact Chad's bedroom scene.

The modern version involving Bandit taken earlier on today . . .

                                     

And the original 2009 version involving Chad.
