In dire need of a break from the coal face, I wangled a week off. With an RDO at the exit end I now have 10 GLORIOUS days off..........but what is a girl to do with 10 glorious days off? Well if today was an average day I shall in face have 10 glorious exhausting days off!!

Shuffling cars, mothers and loads of washing gave way to an afternoon birthday party for a beautiful one year old Eliza. 165 images later (oh I should have shot in jpeg not 21mp Raw) I am still converting to jpeg now. Downloading took FOREVER, but did give me a chance to get some dinner into me and some washing up done. I had hoped to upload a photo or two to flickr tonight, but I don't think that will come to fruition now.

Tomorrow I will have my first ever attempt at shooting a semi clad person with my flash/softbox combination. MMMMmmmm I THANK HIM for being my guinea pig. I don't really hold out hope for great images, but Rome wasn't built in a day, apparently!!
