I'm still alive...
:)
Quickly, an update...
I am still feeling like myself. Life is still chaos in NY but is perhaps on a recovery path. We started looking for businesses to buy late last summer and after losing a couple of bids, we are in the process of diligence and hoping to close on something at the end of the month. Risky?? Uh huh!! But, we were on a road to nowhere. If this goes through it's going to be a real challenge but at least we have a vision of a future. I'm not going to say much more because it's not done until it's done. And, we've found some things that have to be negotiated before we can go through with the deal. It's not 100% on solid ground yet. So....we could use all the positive vibes and crossed fingers we can get. More details when it's real. The best part....it leads us back to PA!
I'm still hoping to get a small photography business of my own off the ground. I may have to suck it up and work on this other thing for awhile though. I have been going forward with my own plans and doing a lot of the background work. But I worry about being stretched to thin. If I have to work with Aaron AND try and sell and pack a house....well, I am only one person. All remains to be seen what's in the cards for me.
But, never fear. I am still taking pictures and I am working a lot with photoshop. I will never ceased to be amazed and delighted at what is possible. I find I learn a lot about the program by stretching reality. I don't intend to drift into complete fantasy land on a regular basis but now and then it sure is fun.
Here's a little piece a put together today....and the original.

Kat, I certainly hope that the chaos is over and you are firmly on the path to recovery. You and I have both been through our own versions of hell, but I'm optimistic that this year will be a better one!
I like both of the pictures, but the autumnal colors in the second one are fantastic!
Hi Kat,
Happy New Year.
It's now my turn to say "Welcome back!" Glad to hear from you and to see your photos. I hope everything will go well as it is and I keep my fingers crossed for your prosperity!
Lots of things happened to me, as well and I've launched my second photoblog, Extra Abstraction.
Have a wonderful weekend.
All the best.

Absolutely gorgeous Kat!
