Here's a pic of me in costume last Saturday at the Anime North convention in Toronto, as Captain-General Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryûsai (for those of you who didn't already know, yes, I actually shaved my head to cosplay this character... dedicated, or crazy??? :crazy: )

With my best friend as Lieutenant Chôjirô Sasakibe:

Finally, my "tribute" to my recently departed co-worker, whose memorial celebration I missed last weekend:

Trunkyo
I like your costume! :) You're very devoted to this anime thingie. (No I don't know what it is, but it must be fun ;) )

tsa
Annabel is lovely as always. :)

You didn't like the other pictures? Not even the one of the parasol and the blue sky? I like the colors in that one a lot.

I went on a sky photography spree last week, so I've got some serious sky pictures coming up for you all :P (Mike's photo earlier inspired me...)

And tsa, the colors are indeed great in the parasol pic

Thanks Uptimist :)

Coming tuesday I will go shoot a model in the woods near Enschede. I have never done that before, so I'm very curious how it will turn out. I'm actually not much into photographing people, but I won a camera with a picture of a girl in a bus, so who knows how good I am in shooting portraits.

I've always loved orange and blue :)

Alrighty then...

My "cloud studies" :P (well, obviously not all of them, but a few hand-picked and so forth)

And one thing I've also been getting into (well, trying more like) is birds flying. So here's one with a crow, although it's more of a mood pic than actually getting the dynamics and all...

(Edit): You know, these cloud pics look really good in a really, really small size (in thumbnail size). I don't really know why though :P Maybe it has something to do with the sharpness.

That's a nice bird picture Uptimist! I have some good ones too, but what I would really like is to get a nice picture of a Common Swift in flight. That is ridiculously hard because they fly so fast and high!

The moon today:

Hey Trunk... I've been meaning to pm you about your pics....they are great and I like the tribute. :D Oh yeah and I dig the bald head :D:D:9~

So, you've all seen pictures of me wih my long hair. For the longest time, I haven't gotten my hair cut in years. Well, I finally got it cut. I like it, and so does Louie. Also, some more pics of me and Louie with my new hair. ;)

You ROCK girl. Your man looks good too (not that I swing that way, but he certainly looks happy being with you).

I got nothing in respect to pix tonight--I'm so far behind. Maybe next week.

Aww, thanks Spec. lol We do seem to be so happy around each other, it's almost too good to be true.

tsa
That moon is gorgoeus! I love it!

Fanstasy
You two are so cute together. :)

The moon was one of the reasons why I bought an expensive DSLR. And now I want a better telelens. 800 mm would be nice :P

Yes, You really are a nice couple.

Thanks, Jelena! Anime is Japanese animation, and my best friend and I are big fans of it. Yamamoto and Sasakibe, the two characters we were cosplaying, are from the animated series Bleach. We have a lot of fun attending the convention every year in costume! :D

tsa: As always, Annabel is so adorable! :) I also like the colour contrast of the orange umbrella against the blue sky.

Fantsie: Love that new look for yours, I'm glad Louie likes it too. :kiss: (Hey, my hair is already starting to grow back! ;))

Well I went to the shooting that was organized yesterday, but I couldn't find the other people :frown: ;(... I walked a long way through the forest but to no avail. I did see my first deer in the wild though! It was very close; only 50 m or so away. We looked at each other for a while, and then my brain started working again and I got myh camera. The deer didn't like that much and started to walk away. I got a shot of its rear, but it was already quite far away by then:

I shot a nice horse picture too:

If you click on one of the pictures you will find even more pictures I took there.

Oh tsa I love the pictures... they are very nice. Jenna says that she loves the horse pics. She said "oooo mommy tell your friend those are the pretties I have ever seen" :D

I wont be surprized if she asks me to print them out for her .... :D

Well, thanks! I like them myself, too! If you want them in a bigger format please PM me your email address.

thanks love :D
