Tie-dyed walls, beanbag chairs and me…

Crazy Little Thing
It’s Valentine’s Day. The one day of the year when you’re meant to express your love to your significant other (at least according to Hallmark and FTD).
I’m not a big believer in Valentine’s Day. In my mind, if you care about someone, you show them every day. But since it’s here, I thought I would take the opportunity to write about the special man in my life. I would have gotten around to it eventually, but why wait?
I titled this post “Crazy Little Thing” because that’s probably the best description of our relationship. Crazy, silly, fun-loving. If you’re in Second Life and check out my profile picks, you’ll find this under My Shining Star:
Cupcakes, bacon and a giant green moth…who knew they would steal my heart? You gave me back my joy, my favourite Polebarkian ♥
It probably doesn’t make much sense to you, and that’s ok. Those little inside jokes that two people share are the glue that bind them together. He “gets” me and I “get” him. To the point that we have a space at our Second Life home that represents his head (which I seem to constantly inhabit).
I’m not going to wax lyrical about the two of us. I’m not going to pour out my heart about how I feel about him. I’m just going to post a couple of photos that show us and that crazy little thing…
The Boudoir Whale
Odd title for a post about photography…but it came up today in a silly conversation and it just stuck in my head 🙂
To try to tie it together, I’ll be spouting about the enormous possibilities – oceans worth of them – when doing bedroom shots.
When I think of boudoir photography, I think of very soft, hazy pictures of women in filmy lingerie. There is a huge market in this type of work for women who want to give their partners a little excitement and spice up their love lives (now, why do humpbacks suddenly come to mind? 😀 )
This photo is one that exemplifies the sensual style that typifies boudoir photography.
But I often choose to swim away from the pod when it comes to my photography. (Don’t krill me; I know that was bad!)
This picture is also a boudoir shot, but it is whimsical and sweet, rather than steamy and sexy.
Yes, I have breached convention with this photograph, but I love lobtailing in the face of the norm 😉
And that, my dear readers, is my whale of a story!
