Aw, it missed you! That's so sweeet!

It's not bamboo? That's odd! I shall have to google about that, but I'm not really surprised. I suspected it was touristy thing. ^^

Lightbox session? I'm not too keen on the terms for photography. Does that mean you cut these bamboo and took the pictures not outdoors?

If so that's very interesting. The shot and how you managed to recreate a wildlife scene away from the actual outdoors. Very nice!

Oh! Well, a light box (or soft box) is, well, what it says. Basically, I made a really cheap light box with a cardboard box, aluminum foil, some tape, and a lamp. Then I used it to create dramatic lighting in the pictures. Yay!

As for the bamboo, it's a potted plant inside my house. Hee! So no outdoors. I'm not sure bamboo grow around here, actually.

Yay, glad you like it!

Oh I see, a potted plant? I'm such a dork. Still keeping the pot out of the shot makes it look close to the outdoors. Very nifty indeed!

There's a lot of bamboo in the woods where I live, oddly enough it only grows in one section.

Aw you're not a dork. I took the shots so it'd look like that. Glad you like!!!

Yay, bamboo. There were lots where I used to live, but out here it's all evergreen. Sadface.

Well where you live, from what I've seen from your pictures, is amazing. Don't take that for granted.

Oh I see, well it worked and even fooled me! Had you just said it was a shot taken in the woods, I would had believed you.

Oh it is! And I'll try not to. I think there's beauty in every state, but I have to admit, this is my favorite so far.

Nice, I suppose I enjoy where I live as well. Although it's really the only place I've lived.

Where I live, it's called 'little America', which means it has everything. According to people who explained that to me, that is.

Although I have yet to find a desert out here...

I really like a lot of areas in that direction, so I wouldn't be ashamed of it. I like moving around, really, but I do want to settle someday. We'll see where that ends up being.

Little America, huh? That's interesting! No desert, yes, but you're not missing anything. Which reminds me, I still need to take a proper shot of that for you.

I always wanted to visit a desert. I know it'll be really hot and I'd probably fry onto the ground, but I just want to do it for the experience.

Hee! Not that hot, here. It's more of a high altitude desert, which means it's very dry, and usually pretty cold (the summers don't last very long). But it's worth it. <3
