You seem to be part artist, part photojournalist. Your piccies are always breathtaking, fabulously set, and you weave these wonderfully gnarled stories to go with each piece... If I asked what camera you are using, would you tell me? please?

XD You charmer! But thank you. I like to think I weave a world, it helps people understand the 'vibe' I'm going for.

My camera's a Canon powershot SX10IS - here's the flickr stat:

It gets good reviews- I certainly like it, though I might say it's one h\only drawback is that it can be hard to hold to begin with as there are so many buttons everywhere! Navigation is easy though, I haven't figured out what half of them do but so far it hasn't mattered.

Oh- and the viewfinder is HORRID - but I never use it, I prefer to use the view screen as it gives me a better idead of what the final image will look like.

Other than those minor details, it's a great camera and I recommend it for someone who wants a 'proper' camera but doesn't want something cumbersome and tech-filled.

Hey Penny :)

Somehow this beautiful piece of art reminds me of a very unusual antique rosary of sorts. Love the quote that goes with your piece as well.

Well to be honest when I finished this piece it did have a quiet mystery about it- maybe that's the rosary vibe. :)

The quote is such a lovely poem- I like to put a piece of old poetry with every piece, to help bring across the communication of the work. Usually I find the poem after I make the object, it seems to work better that way.
