Take This As A "Yes"
Image by TangoPango
Having gotten back from Kenya, one of the most frequently asked questions has been "Did you get close to any animals?"
I got this shot one day when a female cheetah decided that she could use our vehicle as a look-out point. At first she politely kept herself on the hood.
Then, just as I was thinking "Oh no she wouldn't" . . . she did.
She jumped on top of our open vehicle and had herself a rest.
All in all, she stayed for a bit more than an hour. She slept, scouted, played with the bungee cord on top of the vehicle. She had a nice time. We had a great photo opportunity.
I'm hoping that if you look closely at her eyes, you can see the top of our vehicle (and us taking her photo).
I'll never forget it.
I've got plenty more where this one came from. I'll be posting more soon -- PROMISE!
Simple Owl Mask
Image by Douglas R Witt
If you have followed the steps thought the privies photos... you will note that the method of making this mask has not changed much... in fact not at all... the only this is I am making a simple owl mask.
I decided the character of the owl looked better if I did not add a slight curved to it. Once this set of three masks are completed templates and all. I then will be hot gluing a natural wooden bitch or dogwood stick I will collect out in nature.
My reasons for add a stick to hold the mask is, I think the masks will look really nice finish masquerade style and it will give it a playful outdoorsy feel to the overall project since we will be outside at a garden party.
I can’t wait to look out into a crowd of people and see little glimpses of brightly painted animal walking around. My other reason for adding stick is for the parents who will then have to carry the wet painted mask around for the rest of the afternoon… so the stick will make for easy carrying and with a little luck I will see the kids playing there new little animal characters.
I will post photos of the event to show the end results.
one this set of three are completed templates and all... I will be going out and cutting some branches as the way to wear the mask.
