It did feel a little weird, not running Balticon anymore, but it wasn't completely work-free, heh. i was sort of the con "ottoman" - when the Chair wasn't available, people put their feet on me, LOL. And by all accounts, our Guests of Honor had the best convention they'd had in a while.
Poppets were there, in the Art Show, and in the company of myself and a few others :-). Poppets let you know what they want. A year ago, i carried three in my purse. During Balticon last year, two of them disappeared, and i couldn't find them right away. Turns out, they preferred my car, 'cause i found them on the floor of the driver's side, almost under the seat. Now they ride in my car in the ashtray (clean since i don't smoke). The last poppet, who stayed in my purse, is now my "Ambassador" :-)
So to lead off the photo dump, here is my Poppet with our Ghost of Honor, Douglas Adams:

| Artist Bootcamp TM - Summer in the Desert |

The good thing about an early flight west is that i don't spend the full day traveling. The not so good thing about it is Oh-my-gawd-it's-early (thank you Robin Williams).
Yesterday was for planning and working on something i brought with me for a future Poppet Planet sale.
Today was for photography, in and out of the water. It is hot here. The heat is oppressive, reminding me of a week ago in Frederick where it went just over 100 but the humidity was fairly high. Here it's not so humid, but the heat still surrounds you, reminding you where you are. Um, inside a giant convection oven i think.
i saw a hummingbird get a snack at the feeder on Lisa's back porch. Then it landed on a nearby hanging plant. And it stayed there. Long minutes. i mean, more than 5 minutes. i had time to get my camera and take photos, that's how long that bird stayed on that plant.
Maybe it was so hot the bird didn't want to spend the energy to fly. i told Lisa it was too hot for a hummer. LOL. i think it wasn't even noon yet, here's how hot it was:
Lisa prepped some poppets for underwater photography, and in the afternoon we drove to Ben's place, with a quick detour to Tatooine to take some photos of me trying not to faint in the heat, LOL.
We took underwater photos with Lisa's digital camera inside a waterproof bag i brought with me, and also an underwater film camera of Lisa's. The digital photos, which are super cool, are here on Lisa's blog, i highly recommend you check them out :-D
Tomorrow is for art. Tuesday is more art. And more photography.
Wednesday is for home. |

And later today, i'll be putting some "patriotic ponies" up on ebay, hehe. |

| Poppets on Video |
[Jun. 5th, 2007|01:34 am] |
In case you haven't seen this on Lisa Snellings-Clark's blog, she shot some video of diving for poppets, which i then set to a very cool Hopeful Machines song. Yes, poppets are preparing to take over YouTube! There will be a "night" version, as soon as i've had some sleep and more time to play with the very cool night footage Lisa sent me...... Enjoy!
Here is the nighttime version, hot off the (You)Tube :-D |
