Greetings, my beloved Patrons!
I've finally updated my Patreon rewards system. Please take a look at yourself below, but here are the most important changes in the upcoming projects; all the parts released by this date will follow the previous rewarding system and people will get their cards. (rea...
2017-11-09 14:25:51 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all! As I am preparing the short intro clip for future Project L's videos, I gathered a bunch of images from my Lightroom's libraries to be included in the video.
This got me thinking: why on earth would I just keep these things stashed on my hard drives instead of sharing the joy? Well, her...

I'm being busy, honest! At the moment I am
- Choosing a wide variety of higher-resolution photos for you to use as wallpapers and such. For this time being, they're only full HD width, but I'm looking into more resolutions.
- Designing a proper intro video for future Project Ls. The cu...

The most important part of our move - getting our belongings on their place - is finally ready. Looks like our computers survived the move, as did the latex! Now we're taking a brief pause and celebrating our long process of moving back home during the weekend. In other words, we're gonna get waste...

We finally got the keys to our brand new, albeit extremely tiny, apartment in central Järvenpää. And as they say, home is where your 127.0.0.1 is - and it just happens to be quite fast here. In theory we could host 4K latex streams with zero lag, provided we had a sufficient recording equipment ...

I've been thinking about Project L a lot recently, as I'm _still_ waiting for my stuff - including all my latex and computer equipment - to arrive from Malta. Thinking is all I really can do.
Let's talk about behind the scenes of Project L.
Ever since the beginning I've had this so-and-so fe...

It's here, we're not square! I'm actually round. Or a blob. Oh well.
The most important thing is that the 62nd Project L is here and we're finally in Finland. For good.
The next project will have to wait for a while, to be honest; our belongings are still on their way from Malta to Finland, ...

Considering how unhappy I was with the awful, gloomy light and whatnot on the 62nd part, I'm starting to be quite content with the end results.
Despite all this, I feel that without Didi Ou these images would be dull as a butter knife. The framing is predictable, falling within the thirds of the i...

Despite the weather being awful and us fiddling around with the stream, I believe that we managed to capture a few images showing the Finnish autumn.
I'm still not quite happy of how dark the images were and how little light I was able to capture on the camera's sensor. It's not just that the imag...

The video on demand for yesterday's stream is right here!
Unfortunately, due to technical issues, the stream was not sent to the link I had previously sent, but instead created its own address even though I had adjusted the settings to do the exact opposite.
We've now learned from this and m...
2017-10-13 07:01:36 +0000 UTC View PostThe day has come when we can actually test out hosting a live stream while we're shooting a Project L!
You can join us around European afternoon at https://www.youtube.com/c/Photour/live and chat with us silly beings. 2017-10-12 07:28:04 +0000 UTC View Post
ATTENTION: I accidentally selected the "Charge patrons" for this post initially. I have now removed this and created a new post, because of course I'm not going to charge you for plain updates in text. Sorry for the initial confusion!

Hey guys, we're finally moving back to Finland at the start of next week!
I wrote a long post about the move to Photour's Facebook page, where I'm going a bit into detail with our planned additions and focus to our Patreon page.
I'll start making the changes and additions within the next few...
2017-09-27 11:50:50 +0000 UTC View PostYup.
Long story short, we're moving back to Finland because we miss the damn place, its environment and green things so much. Also Mediterranean work culture ain't suited for us in all honesty.
What this means is that we'll be shooting much more latex again! Also reintroducing Miia, our most...

While the vide still remains unpublished to common folk, you all, my Patrons, the most important people in the world, can see the video already!
Finally I managed to find a spot of time where I have actually time and a creative feeling at the same time, so that I can finish editing the 61st Project L.
The wait is over now, and lo behold – latex gloves have also made a comeback!
It was so wonderful shooting in Mdina. The city's anci...

It ain't no easy thing living in Malta. The heat gets to you as it creeps up and your electricity bills are skyhigh – and it's still too warm to wear latex even at home.
Damn.
But it'll get colder, we've told. This weekend will be coldest in weeks, with temperatures going down to 30 Celsiu...

More work in progress images from the 61st part... Woo!
2017-08-08 08:12:33 +0000 UTC View Post
Another sneak peek of the 61st part before I release the 60 part's BTS images. I really like the contrast between Mdina's beige-brown walls and Vanja's purple catsuit.

There's still ongoing editorial action with the 60th part's behind the scenes images, but I couldn't resist starting to browse through yesterday's photoshoot's images.
Here's a sneak peek from the purple catsuit worn by Vanja, in front of the Mdina Gate in... well, Mdina.
2017-07-28 13:20:51 +0000 UTC View Post
What's this? Another Project - and so soon?! It's true! We had another photoshoot with Vanja, who was wearing a plum, almlst forgotten catsuit donated by Paul over a year ago.

The behind the scenes video from the 60th part is out right about now, shot with a GoPro Hero5 strapped on top of my camera to allow me to focus more on the stills instead of switching settings between video and still photos in my Canon 1DX.
Admittedly, 1DX has a superior video quality, but I thin...

Week ago we had our stream. I took a couple of photos before our actual gaming action. One of them turned quite lovely, so it was up to me to share the photo with y'all on Patreon before anywhere else!
2017-07-25 07:42:41 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all! As I've stated before, I've had huge issues with sending the cards (mainly due to being a lazy-ass procrastinator).
If you're still missing a batch of your cards, please send me an e-mail or a private message if you haven't yet done so; I'd like to replace the missing cards with a poste...

Finland.
Oh, Finland.
I miss you so.
It's nice sitting here in Malta, where it's warm and where it's wonderful to drive a motorcycle around – but I still miss Finland. A lot.
It's so much easier to shoot latex in Finland where there's more space, more tolerable temperatures and...

Part 60 of Project L has been almost edited through, but still some small adjustments are required.
Here's a photo, work in progress.

Before anything more is done, here's a quick behind the scenes clip. A complete video is coming, of course, but here's a small sample before anywhere else!
This clip was shot with my new GoPro Hero5, to enhance the quality. Going to look into exporting the files at 2.7K resolution in the future. 2017-07-16 18:24:00 +0000 UTC View Post
As I'm in the process of editing the images, here's the first sneak peek of the 60th Project L we shot back in Finland with Leila and Didi Ou, two wonderful girls who've both had a huge effect in my life.
Visiting back in Finland showed me how much I really miss my beautiful country. I'd really wa...

We're going live in just two hours on YouTube; playing video games, discussing life and enjoying refreshing beverages.
As my Patrons, you're specially invited to join and chat with us at https://www.youtube.com/c/PhotourO...
