I’ve just been adding some more topics into my forums on here.
It’d be really cool if you could join me and we can get some interesting and useful discussions going.
Like, “What’s the difference between art-nude and just naked, art and pornography?”
Go on, you know you want to…
Or am I the only one who’s wondering…?

I had a shoot with a very unwell Pyretta Blaze recently. Despite coughing til she nearly passed out and feeling really terrible, she was a total joy to work with.
Mad as a box of frogs, but great fun. Just don’t call her Charlotte or she’ll make you suffer in so many (fun and interesting ;-)) ways.
She comes very well prepared - her case nearly gave me a hernia trying to lift it - and ready to go the second she got into the studio.
Hire her. You won’t regret it and you’ll love every second

I’m on the verge of climbing the tower with a high-powered rifle!
I’ve just spent the last 24 hours (non-stop!) trying to update my Windows XP with all the “patches” because Microsoft programmers are useless and also updating my anti-virus program.
15 patches from Microsoft for Windows XP and Office XP. And when it reaches the last one, it just hangs there. The whole machine freezes and the only way out is to lean on the power button and kill the machine.
Then, I upgrade my anti-virus suite from Computer Associates - Internet Security Suite v3. If I install ANY of it, then none of the programs that run when the computer starts will work, explorer won’t run anything, I can’t uninstall anything via control panel either. All I can do is return to the last system restore point. Nothing I’ve tried works, even the stuff they suggest on their website!
Reassuring that its not just Microsoft programmers that are careless…isn’t it? In the end, I went for AVG Free Anti-Virus. A breeze to install and so far, not a problem in sight.
And to cap it all, on Friday afternoon, the alarm system for either the apartment across the hall or the cleaners’ supply cupboard starts to buzz - constant, high-tone buzzzzzzzz. It’s now 1am on Monday and it is STILL going and I expect it will be when I wake up…if I get any sleep!
So, who’s got the ladder and the ammo? I know a high tree to climb with a good view…

I had a great shoot today with a very beautiful and fun young lady called the Druidess of Midian.
Swords, 18th century dress, vampire fangs and a great laugh.
If you want to book her as a model, I can highly recommend her.
What do you think? This is one of today’s pictures.

Well, tomorrow I’m 40. They say that life begins at 40… Hmm, not convinced.
I’m broke, a student, divorced and have no girlfriend/partner. I can certainly think of better ways to spend a birthday than watching TV, playing with photos on the computer and eating junk food.
Admittedly I’m enjoying photography and have met some really lovely, beautiful models and I like to think I’ve produced some nice images, but there’s still something missing…
Apparently, I’m a nice guy and pretty much everyone that meets me, likes me and gets on well with me…so why do virtually all the women I like end up going back to ex-partners or deciding that a bastard is the guy they want? Is it me, or are all women insane…?
Anyway, that’s my little moan for today while I can’t sleep, so I’m off for now…
