Ma's Corsetry
My mum's trying to start up a corset business, and she's made a few, one of which was modelled by Vicke, my brother's girlfriend, earlier. I had my camera with me, so took the chance to grab a couple of snaps. I've sent the half decent ones to my mum, but I quite liked this shot of Vicke's head in the background, with her blurry back in the foreground.
New Lens - 55-200mm Nikkor
It was my birthday on Wednesday* and Emma kindly furnished me with a brand-spanking-new lens for my camera. It's a 55-200mm Nikkor lens, for those of a cameraly disposition, or something a bit zoomier than before for those who aren't. I haven't had much of a chance to play with it, but I took a couple of experimental snaps whilst my old Mathssive buddies (including Neil) were here on a surprise birthday visitation, by which I was considerably heartwarmed after a pretty rubbish birthday week.
