Hi Sue, How are you?

You too were named in my MIA/AWOL bulletin the other day :)

Only need Andy to turn up as he's not been about for ages either

Hard learned lessons I think Jon. Been there, done that, so I feel for Sarah.

Me too. I got out of my latest relationship recently too. I should never have given her a second chance, but I blame some lousy medication side effects for addling my brain and numbing me to the realities of her actions, which I overlooked and gave her that 2nd chance. She has been telling me how she misses me, unfortunately for her I don't miss her! Life goes on, without her in my case. :D

Oh I find that hard to believe Sue. You never seem the type to be down.

BTW, at your camera club do you know someone called keith R?

Sorry to hear that John. So you are having to pick yourself up again too.

In a way, yes and no. I'm feeling really quite good about myself at the moment and very happy to be out of the relationship. In a way, despite it being a happy relationship, it was dragging me down and leaving me feeling depressed. I can't say she was impressed to hear that. :lol:

Oh, and couple that with coming off some of my medication I've found a new zing about myself, plus i'm getting back to being my usual self. The biggest change has been my brain seems to have found its power and logic again :)

Glad to hear that Jon
 
Sue I can't believe you've been a miserable cow:nono:

And Jon it's always a bit yes and no isn't it. I've been fine up until today, if he'd only just emigrate or something, it would be a whole lot easier :lol:

I do try not to be miserable but I have been lonely since my break up last year and it gets to me sometimes.

Yes I think I do know a Keith R

I can understand that Sue. It's finding that happiness with yourself that elludes many people. I've always taken the view that when I'm happy with myself those around me can be happy too (doesn't always mean they are though. lol).

At least you have a gorgeous dog to keep you company :thumbs:

Of course it would be easier, but hey, you can't make people do what you want. The answer is for you to do it instead. :lol:

As much as I've sometimes wanted to stay in touch with ex's I never do. Sometimes they feel hurt but it's no longer about them. I just move forward, though at times you need to feel pretty cold and heartless.
 
Well, I think we ought to move on to more brighter subjects now. Too much doom and gloom here.

Looking forward to finding out what the topic is for this weeks 52 :) It's started to help give me my mojo back, and I'm hoping to do a session with my girlies tomorrow too.

Thats why I havent been on here when I was too miserable.

Yes she is lovely and she just accepts me as I am- quiet or fun. And she is certainly better than having no-one.

Thats good Sarah. I enjoyed doing the 52 last year and stuck it out to the end. I thought I would have a go at the Photographer of the Year competition this year instead but the standard is so high. I will keep having a go though. I also have competitions at the camera club.So at the moment I need pictures for "So cold" "Be still" "Animal" and " Flower". Thats plenty to keep me busy

Damn, and i feel much better when I hear about others doom and gloom too! :lol:

Oh ok, if you insist... Shall we talk about Chris in his absence? At least we won't get any flak until later... hehe
 
The POTY competition is way above my level I must say, and as I have lost my way with my photography a little of late, I'm hoping that the 52 will revive my mojo.

I'm going on a lighting course next month, which should be good too, and I did enjoy my day out at the Medieval Market last weekend.

Put a rose behind Chris's ear, stake him to the ground, and you could cover all those subjects with one shot of him :lol:

Someone else's problems are always so much easier to sort than your own, as there is no emotion involved.

Chris is my fwend and I will not indulge in snake bashing :razz:
 
hepburn said:
which course is that Sarah, and what aspect of lighting is it covering?
Click to expand...

It's being run by my local camera club and is 08:30 'til 18:30 and I think it's on and off camera flash :shrug: Who cares, will learn something and it runs over lunch :lol:

Yep, which is why thye people we give advice to all too often ignore it and let their emotions do talking :lol:

Oi! what's all this nonsense about no snake bashing? Has he got to you? :thinking: Ok, what did he promise? :naughty: lol.
 
I took some photos of some BOPs at the weekend and he very kindly named them all for me :)

haha. Lunch indeed! Well good for you for doing it. Lighting can be really complex or really simple. The main thing I try to remember is there's only one sun so artificial lighting should follow that rule - one main light, others compliment. Otherwise you end up with shadows that look unnatural. A very rough rule of thumb, but it tends to guide well...

Cool, but were they the correct names? Ya never quite know with that snake. :lol: I use the collins bird guide, e-version.
 
hi Sue, how's you?

Work been manic, and family life just as bad...here's to a peaceful day (whenever she comes)
 
I've got some 'studio' pics :lol:
 
ladysue said:
I hope you have managed to have some fun too. I am getting better but have had a bad time lately, just picking myself up.

Not exactly sure what fun is these days. Glad to hear you're dusting yourself down :)
