Bohemian Feather Earrings Raver [Indoors] Last Frames

These 2 frames were just some random photos I shot after I changed my clothes just before I put away my equipment.

They actually turned out not to bad in my own opinion.

This was just a top I got at either The DEB or a store called RAVE which has gone out of business, at some point they got re-bought and were called LOLA, but I think they are all out of business now.

Yoga Mom Mori Girl: A Very Rare Up-Doo [No Filter]

Here is the same set with the loose Up-doo, but without a filter. 

These photos were shot in 2012. 

Hope you like them.

Hopefully you might be able to see my makeup here a little better. I'm using the green eyeliner by Rimmel, I think it's the Jungle Green one, but you could find other eyeliners very similar to it anywhere.

I'm wearing orange and gold sheer metallic eyeshadow by Maybelline. The Eyeshadow primer is Primer Potion by Urban Decay.

The mascara is lash Blast by Covergirl.

My Blush is by Physicians' Formula.

And, my lip gloss is by The GAP.

I'm wearing a tear drop shaped cabochon Moonstone which was a gift from my spouse before we were married in Christmas 2001 from the South Shore Plaza in Braintree (South Shore Boston MA). The red chord necklace is beaded with jade, and we sold several of these kinds of necklaces at my old store in Hanover Mall (Mass). The old necklace the moonstone came with broke many times, and restrung until I finally got this necklace which was mounted by my spouse.

The hair sticks I'm using are pretty old, and I got them at a flea market in Delaware in 1999 when my mom purchased them for me as a gift. You could probably find all kinds of similar hair sticks just like these, or similar, or just use chopsticks.

My Tank top is by Old Navy, and my sports bra is by NIKE.

Yoga Mom Mori Girl: A Very Rare Up-Doo [Fog Filter] 001

Here are some the frames from this set when I used the fog filter.

Fog filters used to be incredibly common, but when everything went digital, I noticed many photographers would just use blur effects in graphics software like Photoshop.

Actually, I feel using Photoshop make a different look, since I often use several kind of blur effects myself.

To get this specific look, I'd rather just use the old school fog filter. It's easy, it's simple. it's low-tech, cheap, and saves so much time. Different fog filters have totally different looks to them. I currently only have one, But, I've compared many brands.

It can totally change the mood, look, and feel to a photo, and can even look different depending on the time of day, or season of the year.
Now, I'm noticing them back in use, and the price for them on Amazon has skyrocketed! I guess low-tech can be awesome after all. 

At the time I bought mine in 2012 there really weren't many available, they were just old stock on someone's shelves collecting dust, and wanting to be rid of, and I only paid a few bucks for mine.

I shot these photos in the most mundane of places: the parking-lot of the condominium. Yet, the mood is anything BUT mundane or bland. There's a mood to the set that differs from the frames without the fog filter.

I like experimenting with all kinds of things.

Here's a cheap one:
