OK this is what happens when I try and take a photo, and someone starts mucking around, I will crop the photo to make you look even more stupid, and paste it on the internet for everyone to see. This is, of course, in addition to printing it at the largest size possible and showing all your friends.

I photographed Elva at Studio 8 the other week. Apart from being really attractive, she had a great personality and was fun to work with. What I didn't know at the time, but have since found out, is that she won the Miss Chinese Toronto contest in 2005

OK the plan was to photograph the fireworks from the safety floor above the office - 25th floor, overlooking Victoria Harbour, northerly winds won't blow the smoke towards the camera, it should have been fine. What I didn't count on was the little diva I had with me. Within about 2 minutes of having set up my camera, tripod, release cable, etc, all I got was whinging, "its cold" and "my ears are hurting". So we retired to the warmth of the office, and I ended up shooting through the window. Not ideal, but I was quite happy with the results.
