I do – however – plead an overabundance of social obligations coupled with faire season for my lack of distractions here.
Then again, perhaps I didn’t have much to say? Either way, I am drawn back here again.
My camera was my friend this year more than not but I found myself taking more photographs of persons as opposed to scenery. Not a bad thing at all — however — I’m always quite hesitant about putting non-professional performers’ photos on a public blog without previous permission. Mimi (aka Cybele) has no such issues and I never fear posting her image plus she *is* a professional performer. Others … well … let’s just say I spent more time putting up photos then getting the emails *oh my god my face looks fat take it down* *oh noes I have a double chin take it down* *oh you can’t post that because [insert name of romantic interest] might get upset*
It reminds me why I prefer landscapes.
And on that note – the slideshow. I’ve taken more photos and I’ve taken better photos, but I don’t believe I”ve come away from faire with the memories I did this year. I didn’t just chronicle – I participated.
yes the photo above is from this year and yes that’s Jon and I. It’s one of the few of us together.
