Winter Lights

I achieved a new Photoshop level up after learning about Raw Camera Filters :D These photos weren't nearly as nice right out of the camera. But they are pictures, at least!

I put on our yule decorations, you mgiht see a glipse of my tree in the background there. This year I put on the red lights I got from my mum last year and decorated with every red/green ornament I had, adding white/silver balls to fill it up.

I got messaged on DoA by this amazingly nice person who seems to be new to dolls and wanted to know more about Little Monica dolls. They really liked what I had done with Fyrd and especially Alex. So although I kinda wanted to make Nigel all x-massy for laughs, I chose to photograph Fyrd instead. And heck, he looks nice, fitting in with my theme for this year. :P

I also put some 'new' clothes on him. Since he doesn't really feel cold, he actually has a sleeveless shirt that I got in my last Taobao order. It is his to keep now, mainly because it barely fits him with his flat chest. No way is it going to stretch on Yuffie or Eiko! He is borrowing Eiko's jacket though, for that warm fuzzy look.

And I've misplaced Fyrd's red ribbon somewhere =_= Can't find it anywhere! He is using this Hoshino rose for the time being, but I really have to find it soon.

Meringue is apparently always chosen for photos with out-of-the-ordinary lighting situations... She just looks so in place with it. My little fairy unicorn princess ~♥

I really love these lights I bought last year. They are actually shaped like little snowflakes and the light is very cool. They also work on batteries, which is great for portability! I might take them with me to our next meet-up.

...I seriously forgot the name of this Nendo! XD She is amazingly cute though and a bright smiling finish to my winter lights photos.

This was my last holiday (out of the whole two days I had free this semester) of the year, tomorrow I'll be going back to work. My exams went well, I'm getting mostly 5/5 of my courses, only my Physics Labs course might not have gone as well, since they asked about the very things I was unsure about in the exam. But I think our group did well in the actual laboratory works, so I'm hoping for a 4, settling for a 3. :) Funny how the labs always freak me out, I'm much better with the theory part. I actually had ensured my 5 before the final exam (there were three exams all worth 20pts each and you also got points for the homeworks worth 60pts, I didn't need the last 20pts from the third exam to get the highest grade as it only needed 80% of total), but still got 18/20 out of it :D Physics has always been my least favourite science subject, so I'm calling this a feat! :3
