Dolly Diptych Week 22: As I Fall

Nope, this post is not about every BJD owner's worst nightmare. See, our local BJD community, ManikaManila, is running a themed photo activity. This month's theme is "Autumn", hence the title. No falling dollies over here, just a lame attempt at wordplay...

And pretty Blair photos! Okay, obviously none of these are groundbreaking but I am quite proud of these shots. It was one of those rare shoots where the lighting is just right, so I barely had to edit these shots! When it comes to photography, I prefer minimal editing. I like my photos to look as natural as possible. If you see any of my photos heavily edited, that means I had a bad day, LOL!

Since I live in a tropical country, I can only dream of experiencing Autumn/Fall. Hopefully one day I'll be able to see red and orange leaves and wear those fabulous coats and scarves! For now, I'll have to content myself with mimicking the atmosphere of Fall through photos and wearing light cardigans. XD

Speaking of fall, I don't know how many times I've said this but I really really really love this girl, especially now with her new face up. Gods, I'm so smitten right now. Have you ever experienced the feeling of falling in love over again with your doll? Buh. ;____;

I finally caught Fireflies!

LOL Pardon the joke. I just had to do it because of what Ryan gave to me for my birthday. It's a firefly jar! It's the best gift I've received this year. So perfect. Look at how pretty it is in action! ♥u♥

It's not really a firefly jar, of course. It's a solar-rechargable lantern called Dreamlights, which has several LEDs that flicker like real fireflies. The fireflies glow when it gets dark or when you shake the jar. Cool right?

Dreamlights can be purchased through QUIRKSph if you're living in the Philippines or through ThinkGeek for other countries.
