Not much Shakin

Not too much new to report, I've been out bike riding once this week, running almost every morning lol weather permitting that is ;) haven't snaped any new pix though, sorry... I just have not seen anything that jumped out at me that said "Photo op" ;)

I've been uploading designs to my online shops
.
Spent the weekend watching the Friday the 13th movies.

Spent a little time working on my Ray Gun for my Halloween costume that I probably won't go anywhere with :(

I've been out to one of my favorite pubs "Burbon St. Pool Hall" a few times for a delicious Buger & Fries and a Fort Gary Pale Ale to wash it all down with :P

I'll probably go see a movie this week, lol not sure what playing that's worth seeing though, I'll have to checkout winnipegmovies.com to see.

Yesterday's BIG 10% Chance of Rain

y'know... I REALLY have to laugh sometimes at the Weather Network. Yesterday just before heading out for my morning run I checked the Weather Network just to see what to expect, see if I needed to bring along a rain coat or Ziploc plastic bag for my camera should any rain be expected... nope according to the Weather Network only a 10% chance of rain was expected which is next to bugger all. So off I went. I put my metallic black Zentai on and my hoody since it was a little cool out at about 7:30 AM, grabbed my Exilim Digital camera and my Gorilla Pod.

Just as I'm heading out the door I can see it sprinkling down a little... lol I'm thinking well the Weather Network said ONLY 10% chance of rain so I figured it would probably stop soon and blow over.... no such luck, by the time I had ran down to the beginning of the Waterfront Drive River trail it just started hosing down. I was carrying my camera in it's little leather case so it was fine but I still tucked my hands inside the front big pocket of my Hoody to help keep it dryer. By the time I had got to the St. Boniface Bridge I was pretty soaked lol.

Once across the bridge and on my way to Whittier Park where Fort Gibralter is the rain had pretty much all but stopped, it was down to a very light trickle. I stopped off at this big rock between the Fort and the Baseball Field and took off my Hoody and set up my camera on the Gorrilla Pod and did some Zentai pictures posing on the big rock, which was pretty soaked from the rain. Thank God for Spandex because it dries out super fast lol. The other good thing about it being kinda rainy out and early in the morning is that there was noone around so I could take my pictures without being disturbed.

This is the last one I took after running all the way down the River Trail to Lagimodiere Gaboury historic Park Gate where I stopped off in the pic nick area and snapped a couple of Zentai pictures at one of the pic nick tables, got a soaked butt from sitting at a wet table lol. You can see in the picture that the sky has cleared up really fast, the sun came out and dried me out real good. By the time I ran back home I was only a little damp and that was mostly from my Hoody and sweat.

10% chance of rain indeed!! More like 80 or 90 percent chance!... lol of course it WAS clear all day though... maybe that's what they meant?? lol

Even still, I felt pretty accomplished yesterday since I managed to get some good Zentai pictures done.

New Photo Locations

I found a couple of interesting places to take photos today while I was out riding my bike. One was right by this big up-rooted dead tree that I thought looked pretty neat so I just couldn't resist the temptation to stop and snap a few pictures. I wish I had gotten there at a different time of day as a good deal of the shots are pretty heavily back lighted by the sun. lol I'll just have to try that spot again at a different time of day, some different camera positions might help too.

New Zentai Pictures

I created a new series of Zentai pictures with my new Exilim Digital, using the candle light setting, set up a a Gothic fantasy series with my new red satin sheets and gothic decore, which I'm still kinda tinkering with till I get it to look just right ;)

See the whole series on my Deviant Art gallery:
