twitter

I joined twitter, it ain't too bad! http://twitter.com/LisaMKruchak add me if you want.

Aimoo's folks and dog are over, I can hear his little shuffly foot steps in the hall, it makes me smile.

Mediocre weekend. up and down. Jason Collett in London was great, some of my plans fell through (for photo sessions, for jamming and movie watching) which was/is sucky. I'm currently waiting for my photos to upload (25%), will link to 'em for you... then I think it's time for wine & movie.

in Desperate need of new equipment...

I'm currently taking all my photos with a Nikon D40. I bought it about 2 years ago, I didn't want to spend too much money on a new camera as I wasn't sure how serious I would get with the photography thing. I'm still trucking away and hoping to upgrade to perhaps a D700 sometime next year.

However in the meantime I've entered a contest to win a D2H here. Cameron Laid is the kind sir who is handing out this free camera to some lucky person. He's a news, editorial & commercial photographer based in Townsville, northern Australia. You can check out his web site here; www.cameronlaird.com. and or his blog here;
http://blog.cameronlaird.com/. Except for the porkgasm post, I generally approve of his bloging, haha.

anyway keep your fingers crossed for me!!!!!

oh! Aimoo and I trekked down to London last night to see Jason Collett at Call the Office. I'm working on the photos now & hope to have em done soon...

time for an update!

I made myself a softbox!

It works pretty good! though I'm having a couple problems with the velcro staying on though. I got the idea from this website. If you dare to try and make it for yourself I would definitely recommend having a sewing machine handy. haha, I sewed it by hand and of course it seemed to take forever!

I took this photo using my softbox.

I like it!



this piece of brilliance is courtesy of specter art. Wish I'd seen it before it was taken down, it would've given me a good chuckle.

new songs

I recorded some new songs a while ago, check 'em out at my myspace

I've been feeling more arts and craftsy than musicy lately.... I need to find myself an appropriate balance I guess. I also find Toronto to be an uninspiring city and I'm feeling the need to evacuate.... or something.

women
(yeah right)
