I have twenty seven images going for print tomorrow. That’s twenty seven different birds without twigs in front and they all have to be presented like this. To print perfect at two to a sheet of A4 with the Matt. Help is the ID correct? I know the image is within a Gnats whisker of blowing out. I have till Wednesday to get a better one. Amazingly I know what the others are called.
I texted Alex at noon whilst the rain was teeming down and she said. Aren’t they done? I need them tomorrow.
She was having a haircut in Inverness. It was a ladies haircut, when she polled up an hour ago she looked just the same with her head capped and shrouded by a tangley mass of blonde and not so blonde curly hairs. It did smell of lemons. I said very nice. It smelled lovely. I could have done with a good sniff.
She has decided that all the images look better for a vignette and with her leaning over my shoulder I had to agree. I’d have agreed to anything, she is stopping to eat a Pork Chop and moan. She could moan for Scotland. She says. What are you writing? I said I am just asking for confirmation on an ID. She tells me to tell you that if my hand gets so much as an inch from her arse again this will be my last post and she will be blowing the bugle. I’ll have to write this very small as like most ladies she has twice as many eyes as normal folk.
I think I’m winning. She is cooking. Has dropped back home for a bottle of wine. Her partner is massive. Don’t think of the pain Adrian. Faint heart never won a fair lady.
Have a great weekend. It’s looking good here. I have twenty or so images to re-edit but no worries. I now know the deadline is Wednesday. It pays to get to know ones clients.
You're a hoot. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, it looks like a Pine Siskin to me. Lovely shot.
Hilary a bit sunny for it but it may have to do.
DeleteIt is a female Siskin Adrian, pssst when she's not looking, do you need a rescue/snatch squad?
ReplyDeleteDouglas, thanks. No I'll be alright.
DeleteConteol yourself until after the pork chop, Adrian.
ReplyDeleteFrances, I did. She ate me out of van and home. Then read my Kindle until I had finished the photos.
DeleteYes, I'll go along with Siskin. And you being uncontrolled!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTa Bob, I'd like to be.
DeleteWell done with the bird, and ID.
ReplyDeleteCheers Keith. I know she only wants food and the damn pictures.
DeleteHE WHO DARE'S Adrian, i think she is playing hard to get, good luck.
ReplyDeletepeter
Peter not hard to get impossible to get.
Deletei love those guys
ReplyDeleteSo do I R. Mac.
DeleteHaHa!
ReplyDeleteAndrew, you laugh.
DeleteCool that you are having photos published.
ReplyDeleteRed, I still have many more to get. It's amazing how many birds there are in a small area.
DeletePretty funny -- at least to me.
ReplyDeleteJohn, it's funny to me as well.
DeleteFor a minute there I thought I had been reading too many romance novels. The heroine, shrouded by a tangley mass of blonde...someone could turn that into a good story. oh yes, that was you. Thanks for the chuckles.
ReplyDeletePauline, I could have done her hair like that and she paid someone to do it.
DeleteWell Adriaan you have a lot of work, but you have happy help?
ReplyDeleteBas, she is a grand girl. It's a pity I'm not twenty years younger.
DeleteBeautiful bird image.
ReplyDeleteGood weekend to you.
Marit, thank you.
DeleteI'm, travelling back to Lewis tomorrow but, hopefully, I'll discover if you are alive or not somewhere along the way!
ReplyDeleteGraham, the internet was acting up yesterday. I'm alive and well.
DeleteHave a safe trip.
Spot on with the identification Adrian and great shot as well.
ReplyDeleteThanks Adam. It could be better but I haven't improved on it yet.
DeleteBusiness etiquette confirms that it certainly is good to get to know your clients but not to have lascivious designs upon their bodies. I'm just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteYP, she doesn't mind. She is good company and treats it as a joke.
DeleteMe encanta la escena,Adrian!!! También me gusta mucho las ramas que envuelven al pajarillo.
ReplyDeleteUn abrazo y buena semana.
Jordi, muchas gracias.
DeleteQue tranquilo estĂ¡ el pajarillo. Preciosa imagen Adrian!!
ReplyDeleteBuen lunes.
Un abrazo.
Laura, hoy he tenido que hacerlo mejor. Las imĂ¡genes son para un libro. Alex dice que tienen que estar bien, pero no perfecto.
