Here I am, a lazy Sunday off work as part of an entire weekend off. I guess I'm considering it a birthday present I gave to myself in lew of actually quitting work early. The Hong Kong idea has gone up in smoke like a pile of Avian Flu infected chickens on the pyre. Although I have taken to reading Big White Guy lately. It's not another Bear Blog but about a white guy living in Hong Kong who's actively taking up the culture and history of the area.

Anyhow, I have more time to myself as Dad is caught at work until Thursday. It's working out well because I get to have some space for just about as long as I like before getting too lonely. Going up for tea at my Aunt Liz and Uncle Charlie's early tonight and then returning home for a nice quiet evening in. I might even get started on the obscenely huge pile of books I've acquired since moving here.

No promises.

Great picture...you've captured the beauty of a fleeting moment of sunshine here. It doesn't hurt that you're easy on the eyes yourself. ;)

Thanks! The idea was totally to show the little ray of light I could capture. It really is rare around here.

BRIGHT LIGHT! BRIGHT LIGHT!

:P

Nice pic, looks like you want to curl up in the sunlight and sleep the day away.

Work it baby! Hawt!

I'm reminded of the Mapplethorpe picture that's the cover of Strange Angels. Eyes-closed portraits rock.

Awwwyeah, I'm workin' it so hard it's about to light on fire!

I'm a big fan of the eyes closed. It's somehow more... intimate?

They're more intimate, but sortof one-sided. You can't feel that unconscious connection with the person in the photograph, because they're not looking at you. They're looking inside.

Windows of the soul being shut and all that crap. I need to see if I can get some folks to actually keep their eyes closed for a photo. I imagine sitting there with your eyes closed, your thoughts must turn internal...

Blah blah blah. Luck probably has more to do with it.

Do the Scots charge you for the sunlight, or was that a freebie?

When I was in Edinburgh, the sun did not shine once, so I figured you had to pay for it.

That's such a nice pose. Artistic, not "look-at-me-I'm-hot!" like some guys do. :) You ARE hot, of course, but you don't look like you're trying to look hot.

I am from the 1990's school of Trying-Without-Actually-Looking-Like-You-Are. So really I am.

Nobody likes a photo that tries too hard. Like all those guys with normal bodies in bear profiles and stuff who cross their arms strategically to look all muscley. It's like "Hello Mary, you're not fooling anyone!".
