Do you have sometimes this idea starting in your head, very vague and not well formed. And you let it grow, you think about it from time to time, maybe even draw it or try to work on it in photoshop?
I had this never really fully satisfying feeling about my logo. I liked it, it sort of showed the soft feminine side of my photography along with hard technical part of it (which I love too!).

And finally last night I had opened the above file, looked at it and started moving things around.
Cropped that,removed something else, put it back on, re sized it, replaced it, changed the font…
Creative process for me is all about trying and checking if it works.
And after all these tests- I came up with this version:
So?
What do you think?
Any feedback?
I will appreciate ALL comments on that!

DaWanda is online shopping venue, with handmade products. Its headquarters is in Berlin, Germany.
Couple of years ago I had set up an account with DaWanda, but never really got involved pass that.
Until now.
Recently I re-opened my shop on European handmade selling website: DaWanda. My shop is still small and I am adding new prints to it- as we speak!
It’s a little bit different platform, a little bit different shopping experience and- the prices are in Euros!
Take a look! Maybe European arts and crafts are going to suit you?

This past Saturday, amid triple digit high temperature few of us crazy photographers gathered on NC state campus to enjoy the photo walk, part of action initiated by Scott Kelby and happening as a Worldwide Photo Walk.
For me that was first time participation and I am happy I was able to participate! Gained not only some extra suntan, but also I was able to discover some nice sites around the NC State University campus. Like the tunnel with crazy painted wall, or the strange structure that even though it’s parts are set far away it can enable sound to go with some enhanced strength or something. Very cool! My husband explained that a little bit to me, but I am still behaving like it’s magic and not physics
There is already a flickr group for our shots. Mine are going to be added soon, as I am still working on them- and after that of course just keep your fingers crossed, so maybe I can win the contest?
Anyway- more to come on that!
And if you, my dear reader, was hesitating about joining nice meetup like the photo walk- don’t hesitate anymore and discover the fun of sharing, networking etc!

Last week, against the hot weather I met with Ms Jennifer and her sons: Eric and Brett at small playground in Cary NC.
Eric, who is going to be soon well known actor, was my main model for photos you can see below. So remember his face- one day you will him in one of those great and very popular movies and you will remember you have seen him before!
We had fun photographing (me) posing (Eric) and talking about summer vacation, acting plans (both of us).
It was fun and hot weather did not keep us from enjoying the shoot!
More photos can be seen on my portfolio page!
