Today, I dusted off the new background I had made specifically for a my ringdoll Ange. Since she is so small, she needs a smaller background to work with. I also got a few miniatures furniture, and a bunch of food props. I had all the elements to make a proper Thanksgiving photoshoot.   My one regret is that I didn’t have a Turkey dinner prop.

Tanabata has become of a little family tradition. Brother person got into celebrating Tanabata with his girlfriend. I ended up joining in the fun, along with my mother. For those not up to date with the fun, Tanabata is known as the Star Festival in Japan. The celestial deities Orihime and Hikoboshi are together at last. They are only allowed to meet up once per year, on the seventh day, of the seventh month of the lunar Calendar. Since the Gods are in a good mood, the folks in Japan take this chance to ask for a bunch of stuff....
