I have fought a good fight

last

You are looking at the final picture that was edited for the coffee table book. Yes, that means the photo editing is now finished! All 100 portraits. I feel like this woman above right now. Giddy beyond all. If it were not 4:00 AM, I would be jumping around the house. No, I’d be running down the street Doc Brown style, with my arms held high. What does this mean? It means Tiffany needs to get her buns down to Austin, so we can shoot the cover photo and plop the text in, and get this book printed. Then make it a New York Times best-seller in the Coolest Photography Coffee Table Book category. That category exists, really ;).

In reality, we want this book to be a huge success, not only because we put so much time, time, energy and time into this book, but because we believe in the message. This book is about destroying negative Alaska Native stereotypes. There is still so much intolerance and ignorance in the world today. Even with the culture shift of becoming “more acceptive,” the pendulum swings just as easily in the other direction. I think this message can be applied to any culture. Ignorance begets intolerance. So buy the book and get educated.
These kinds of feelings come about naturally when you eat something, the food passes through the food cheap cialis 100mg pipe and then reach the stomach.

However, if you do face the problem of weak flow of blood circulations towards the sex organs. cost of viagra pills amerikabulteni.com Some of the causes of male dysfunction include:- Narrowing of Blood Vessels- High http://amerikabulteni.com/tag/wall-street-bahari/ viagra prices Blood Pressure, Cholestrol and Diabetes result in narrowed blood vessels.
OK. I’m now off of my soapbox. I really am excited to have these done. It took me too long. Sometimes I would spend an hour on one image. NOT, I must quickly add because they needed to be fixed. I just want everything to be perfect. In reality the images are hardly touched up. We want honest faces. No liquify tool. No magazine-style-have-no-pores skin. Just honest to goodness portraits.

So there you have it. Now it’s time to run down the street… if only I had a Delorean.
