The Art of Me - Random post of squee :D

I had a great moment just now :D

I went to pick up certain photo prints, I ordered two versions to see which one looks better for what I have in mind. I always go to the same place, they've been developing my pics for 20 years and they do amazing quality stuff \o/

But today I went to pick up, let's just say, a very specific type of project and I figured it would either end in a very awkward moment or simply they would ignore it. I went in and the guy saw me, obviously recognized me and immediately took out the envelope with my pics. And then he told me all smiles, "Hello! Oh, my. You create such beautiful things. This one's really amazing!"

Okay, that kinda made my day because obviously any print I have ever given to anyone came from that photo lab, so they've seen my other stuff, but appareny this one did it for the guy, heeeeeee.

So, yay for me :D

I was really betting on the "go in, pick up stuff, leave quickly" version but he was just so delighted, LOL :D

That has to remain a secret for a while. But don't worry, you'll have a chance to see it :D

Yeah, we can order prints this way, too, but this particular photo lab is a small one and they have their equipment right there in the back. I still remember the times when I had to go there with a film to develop and back then the interior was different and you could see all the machines processing films and printing photos... Now they have it all in the back. Despite being a small company, they deliver top notch quality of prints :D

Your Lucky to still have such a service, wouldnt know any stor here that does it, once a year we have pictures made of our family and the photographer takes care off those pictures, and I must say, theay Always look fantastic, much better than the once from a regular store.

There is a dreamy, otherworldly quality to your art. Romance. Without that damnably trite 'B'.

Awww, thank you. But I do consider Neal and Peter's irresistible features the main reason why something looks nice :D They are so inspiring :D

And heee... well, you know who can have that B and where they can put it :P

Awww, thank you :D Our boys are so beautiful, they take most of the credit for teh pretty :D But it was nice because it was completely random, without the White Collar background or the illustration background :D

Well, both prints are coming with me to DC :) These are just samples anyway, I needed to see whick texture works better, glossy or matte. Matte it is :D
