LOCAL INDIE DESIGNERS WERE THE STARS OF THE TACOMA FASHION CARNIVAL ON! SPONSORED BY URBANXCHANGE AND EMBELLISH SALON AND GALLERY, PHOTOS BY CHIPSHOTPHOTO.COM:
Showcase "House of Kubla Kahn" at Indochine Dining Lounge 1924 Pacific Ave. Tacoma, was a smashing success! Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to bring such an exciting fashion event to Tacoma. The house was packed and the models looked great. Fashion designers were clearly on cloud nine as they walked in the parade of designers finale.
THANKS TO EMEBELLISH SALON & GALLERY FOR AMAZING HAIR AND MAKEUP!
Who I'd like to meet: If fashion is a passion and you live to create, we want to meet you. Now reviewing independent designers world wide for this year's theatrical Tacoma Indie Fashion Showcase 2008. This year's event will be a fund raiser for a homeless teen support agency.
I made my first video slideshow and wanted to share it with you. The musician (Elizabeth Ann Middleton) is one I found through MySpace, and she generously let me use her music to set to my images. Visit her MySpace page here - http://www.myspace.com/pianorama - she's fantastic! :-)
Spring is here and so are the butterflies! This week I have a gallery of a particular group of butterflies called Brushfoots. Brushfoots are the most commonly known and encountered of the large colorful butterflies (excluding the swallowtails) found in Florida and the Americas. These include the monarchs, fritillaries, buckeyes, and the viceroy below (who has nearly identical markings as the toxic monarch butterfly) to keep it from being eaten by birds.... cool trick, huh? :-)
Click the butterfly below to see my gallery - and please let me know what you think!
Thanks for adding me! I try to add as many new photos as often as possible, but if you'd like you can check out my main galleries by clicking on the alligator. I also have a new blog (the link is on my home page - you can't miss it - again - just click on the alligator. )
If you have any questions about photography or about Florida nature in general, don't hesitate to ask!
