FINALLY!

Woke up to the entire Beatles catalogue available on iTunes! Before 7:00 am: After 7:00 am:

Chatting Up The Video With Da Tapias

Video eclair-chatting with Sylvia and Rodrigo.

Back At The Grind Of The MIP Kind

Had a long, but very productive day out at Multi Image. Yay for money.

Video Chat With The Tapias’ Kids

Rapture

Saw this trailer for an awesome new film, shot partly in time-lapse. Just astounding photography. TimeScapes: Rapture from Tom Lowe @ Timescapes on Vimeo.

Lisa Bettany Knows I Exist!

Lisa Bettany, blogger and photographer extraordinaire (and a beauty to boot), replied to a message I sent her about seeing her at Disneyland. It’s the little things.
