And on occasion I find something I like. Not sure why I didn&#8217;t pick this photo the first time around. I like the tilt of her head and her face in sharply in focus unlike some of my other Catwoman photos. There&#8217;s another shot I like as well but the background is proving particularly problematic and I haven&#8217;t found a solution I like for it as yet.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhoo&#8230; only 12 days until I go. Very excited. I&#8217;m starting to think about things like packing so I can weight my suitcase and what I actually want to take with me. It feels a little surreal, I&#8217;ve been planning this for so long and now it&#8217;s almost here. My brother has started asking me how many days to go when he sees me. Actually, I think I&#8217;m also excited because I get two weeks off work. I think I&#8217;m already in holiday mode because I find myself not caring about any of the projects I&#8217;m supposed to working on. Oops. Can&#8217;t help it though. It&#8217;s my first overseas trip so it&#8217;s natural that I&#8217;m going to be a little excited.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s just a pity the Aussie dollar has tumbled against the American one so I&#8217;m losing more cash than I thought I would. But I keep telling myself it&#8217;s nowhere near as bad as it was a few years ago when I would&#8217;ve lost half my savings in the currency conversion. As it was, I only lost $300. Could&#8217;ve been a lot worse. I&#8217;m hoping that the dollar will rally and I&#8217;ll get more bang for my buck when I do my second conversion.<\/p>\n<p>And I still haven&#8217;t bought any sunscreen, a second sketchpad, power plug adaptor, tim tams or the majority of the things I had on <a href=\"https:\/\/hatfullofsky.net\/littlewords\/?p=13\">my list<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m going through a creative lull at the moment so I&#8217;ve been flicking through some of my older photos.
