Either way, you&#8217;re doing a good deed. (I haven&#8217;t been by to see her yet, because I suck, but say &#8220;hello&#8221; for me, it is on my List of Things To Do.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/shinesf\/\">Shine, a SF nightclub, has a photobooth hooked up to Flickr.<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>I wished today for a real studio to play in. Crouching in my livingroom, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/foxtongue\/516800177\/\">having only two inches wiggle room<\/a>, relying on the reflected light of a small hand mirror that I&#8217;d precisely taped to my wall, just wasn&#8217;t cutting it for me. Someone on MySpace wants to pay me $20\/hour to take artistic nudes of him. He&#8217;s a hugely muscled man of the sort where I want to pronounce it muskles, thick as several boards with spelling to match. (His punctuation isn&#8217;t too hot either). I&#8217;m tempted to say yes, but only to connect myself with a shoot that won&#8217;t be locked behind a non-disclosure agreement, like the sweetheart shoots I do for women or the kink community boudoir photos. There must be an easier way. <\/p>\n<p>Part of my reluctance to pester my photographer friends is the certain knowledge that I should be hunting more work for myself. Right now the best way to get me out of the house is promise me a meal. I&#8217;m wary of rent right now, too, though I already spend as little as possible. Underemployment is making me too nervous to feel I can blithely take a day off to scamper about the woods. I&#8217;ve been asked to write articles for a number of magazines, which is great, but it&#8217;s all volunteer work, which doesn&#8217;t help put food in the fridge. There was a run of film work last month, but it seems to have been a blip on the map, with no real direction.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/alberich\/sets\/1477911\/ \">Dreamy underwater shots by Alberich Mathews.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My Bjork concert pictures have been uploaded.
