Ashe Noir progress and first look!

Hello my Sweethearts!
How are you doing? How is your health and mood?
Today is the last day of summer. Aaand it went very fast from my perspective. Here we were planning what to shoot in summer. Here we were in a situation, where we closed some of the planned projects. Here we are almost set to shoot. And here we are ready to finaly release long awaited project.
Really fast.
Year went since my last vacation (proper rest) and like we are all here, I won't have one (hope ONLY) till next year. Some countries, only recently, allowed its people to move and work properly. And stoping it again.
Mine way to ease up my burden a bit, was to go searching photo locations more frequently. And to go for a walk with my dog. Unlike in many countries in Russia we weren't restricted too harshly from going out (of course with mask and gloves and not in Moscow), so it helped.
Only during pandemic and having dog helped me to appreciate more life and nature around me. I guess it was same for most of us.

Autumn is coming (few hours left) and hope it'll be the season which will bring us only good things. Today I wanted to acompany summer and greet autumn with something good. And aslo share with you on our progress and look of Ashe Noir. Alfa version of the name is "Shelter" by the way. )
I really like how this project looks and it makes me wait with excitement your reaction and opinions. The way our Ashe looks rises my mood rapidly everytime I see finished photos. )
We put a lot of efforts on preparations for other projects (in order to be able to shoot them) and it took us a lot of time. TONS of TIME.
I want to notify you, that we need few more days to finish everything. Hope you'll be understandable and please no worries it won't be as long as it was with previous Ashe project.
Notification to all my Friends! We are finally ready for Ciri project. ) Most of important things are set and we can finally shoot it. I changed goal for Ciri. Previously I wished to have at least 70 patrons for several months to be able to produce it. Since we planned our Ciri for almosy 1,5 year (roughly), we collected every small coin and slowly build foundation for it. It was hard, but perseverance, saving up and your support helped to reach this point.
I'm really motivated to release Ciri project this year. I won't tell when it'll happen for now, because it is the topic for another day. I changed Goal for Ciri from 70 to 60 patrons in hopes that it'll happen very soon, because the more people find your works appealing the more motivated and stronger you are as creator.
Don't get me wrong. It is not THAT necessary to hit this goal. I'll release Ciri no matter will it reach or not written goal. But it doesn't mean I won't be happy if it'll happen )

Let's welcome autumn with happy and open hearts. It'll bring us many beautiful events and projects from me. )

Have a great day and please be and healthy!
