My life is so crazy busy. I've been making stuff, making stuff, and making stuff like nobody's business in the last while. Not to mention I went on vacation over the Thanksgiving holiday.

Anyway, so this is my most recent plate I've made. YeaY! I'm currently working on an Etsy site to sell my glass items: from ornaments to plates and platters.

'Tis that time of year. I'm starting to get orders for all kinds of things. Prints and ornaments and necklaces (oh my). I'm really liking working with fusing glass. You can make some really cool stuff and I'm just incredibly excited to continue trug along with my creative ideas.

On that same note of being busy. I'm trying to get myself ready for the next art/craft sale on Dec. 6th and in between now and then I'll be on vacation for a week.

Can't forget to mention... there's a new necklace up on etsy for sale. It's my little penguin necklace. It is pretty awesome... so go and check it out! It's listed right here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17228503

This cute little penguin ring seems to have a ton of popularity. I've sold two of them usually within a day of posting them and I'm expecting to sell my last one this morning.

I think I'm going to absolutely make some more for the coming holiday season. I think i might order more ring blanks too in a couple weeks... we'll see, though. I haven't decided.

I don't know if I've mentioned yet, but I have another show happening on Dec 6th at the Roseville City Hall. Put it on your calendars and come check it out if you're in town!

For anyone that doesn't know, shooting at night makes me nervous. So what do I do? I shoot at night...

Marbles

One of my favorite things is when little droplets on leaves, grass, or whatever, look like tiny glass marbles.

I love this photo. There is just so much going on down on the mall. Something that has been a complete rarity all summer long. Although, it's not all that uncommon for the mall to be quite in the summer.

Night lights...

I've been feeling the need to create a, sort of, photography themed blog. I have a regular blog and various other places where I record my regular thoughts, but until now I've had nowhere for my photographic thoughts. While I do have a flickr site, I don't feel as if I can really discuss my photographic work, so that is what this will be...

Currently, I'm trying my hand at working on my night photography skills. This specific photo is slightly after-processed with vignetting added. I am quite fond of this particular photograph if for nothing else than the light trails and reflections. I'm sure there will be more similar photographs in the near future, though, as I continue to practice what I learn every day.
