Trough railings. (Patreon)

Taking pictures through the metal railings in the apartment of Velvet has caused some unpredictable results, like in this photo where the out of focus line of the railing goes exactly on the face of Velvet, but it is so blurred by the superpowers of "Martin" (the Zeiss T* 1,4/85mm Planar ZF named after the Patron that sponsored part of the purchase) on the medium format sensor of the Fujifilm GFX 50S II, that we can see right through it, and the effect is somewhat pleasant.This photo was shot among the first during our allotted time on June the 22nd 2026, and she appears to be absorbing the light coming from the glass roof like a spiritual nourishment.

No post on DA Subscriptions today, as I post there about 4 times every week, and usually not on Wednesday... But I recently posted 2 paid galleries there, that surely went unnoticed, one with BW photos, and one with Color photos, of some unique portraits Velvet allowed me to do.Something special for me, and for all the people that wish to purchase one or both of the galleries (but beware pictures are the same in the 2 galleries, either all color or all BW).

By the way, you can see 1 more photo of Velvet later today, free of charge, on my regular social media feed, don't miss it!

Speaking about the 10 year anniversary celebrations of the #BramleyApple Project, Yesterday I was attending the printing process, and I think we nailed it this time!You can see few pictures from the day as bonus pictures today, to show where the printing process took place, in a proper Italian printer, with my supervision. I am ahead of schedule, before November, but I still have plenty of things to arrange, so I will keep my foot on the throttle, for the moment.
