What are these? Wings?

Week Three:

Its about time I got to some of the reading I committed to: I have to figure out how to get a hold of Hirsh’s Book “Centering” Meantime: Women who Run with Wolves, A course In Miracles, The Artists Way, and Your Hearts Desire. More about that later.


Met with Mark, and reviewed the remaining photos. Our initial shoot was about 600, which I reviewed on his computer, and brought down to about 400, by eliminating the ones that were less then flattering to me. We reviewed the rest of them together and he showed me how he works with color correction, and checks composition, and focus. From there we compared groups of photos that were all very similar, to eliminate even more shots, and brought the final total down to about 160. that was a lot of work and took several hours over two different days. I got a disc with the remaining photos, and Mark gets to post his favorites into his website portfolio.


Mike and I agreed not to meet for music this week, since he had some other things to take care of, and I really need to work on my timing more. I've been practicing a lot, but some of the songs we are working on start on the third beat or between the fourth and first, so they are hard to count out. Especially for me, since timing is the bain of my existence anyway. I have made a lot of progress on the songs but the timing issue is prevalent and embarrassing. I practice all the time in the car, and doing the dishes.
