You are Coraline! You are quirky, strange, and charming. Some people may find you a little alarming and not always get you... But they can piss off, right? You are the kind of person who always needs to be entertained, otherwise you get uncomfortable. You probably still enjoy everything you did when you were little, such as childrens books and Disney movies.

That's in Montreal, Canada. Great big fibreglass sculpture of a mob scene. Outdoors, in a courtyard in front of an office building.

Here's the view from the back end:

If I recall correctly, that figure in the hood is actually a hangman. Seems to me he's holding a noosed rope-end.

That sculpture's my second favorite public work of art. (Calder's Man gets the nod for first place.)

This is a shot from a gig at Christmas. I just loved the utter concentration on his face.


Much the same with this one, actually.


And I like this one because it was when I finally mastered the art of focusing my camera on the macro setting. Its harder than you'd think.

You are a Leprechaun. I'm not even sure what you are. Whiskey-soaked reports from your baffling Isle of Ire raise more questions than they answer. Are you a dwarf? Where's your pickax? If you're an elf, why don't you cobble? You'd think with all your gold, you could invest in some land, perhaps a title, and improve your station. Instead, you hide it in meteorologically-determined locations. You're getting killed on inflation, little friend!

marymac - i have lots of trouble with my macro setting (largely, i suspect, from not actually reading the manual)

that's a beautiful shot

I did read the manual. It was the donation of a baby tripod from my dad that did it I think. Meant I could hold it steady long enough to let it focus.

Camera looks hilarious on the tripod, but I can live with that.

hells yes, tripods are great (not that I've ever actually used one)

I always end up putting my camera down on fences, railings etc or leaning up against posts to get the same stability.
