A few weeks ago, I had an amazing photo shoot with a few members of the Only Human Dance Collective. They're a dance group from the University of Toronto. It was a great experience, with some wonderful people. I finally got around to editing some of the photos, only a couple of days before my next shoot with them. I can't wait until Sunday for the next round.
This my favourite photo from the first shoot.

Silvered Reflections - Looking back on the year
A year ago, the summer dragged on. Not in a bad way, just in that wonderful lazy way that summers can.
This summer disappeared in the blink of an eye. Enforced relaxation was by no means the norm, but it was worth it.
I've got one academic paper in press and another that's been reviewed and needs to be sent back. My photo portfolio has grown and my technique (both behind the camera and in post) has come a long way. People are coming to me asking for photos and even offering to pay. And I've got 90% of a PhD thesis written that, by the end of the month, will be done
Somewhere in there Rani and I managed to attend a few parties, enjoy the occasional patio, have a few great shows, visit friends and family in far off places, and generally stay somewhat sane.
Despite the craziness and the overwhelming stress, happiness was easy to maintain. Being so busy meant little free time, and the stress kept piling (rather than floating away) as the summer went on. But we decided early on to enjoy ourselves and keep smiling.
It worked.
