Thanks. I'm not actually a Kiwi, though ... 

I'm originally from the States. Philadelphia to be exact. I've been living here for almost nine years, though, so I suppose you could say I'm something of an honorary Kiwi.

Awesome photos! I especially like the one with Flitterheart and the bubbles

Excellent! Thanks for looking. Plumsweet is my favorite. She's my little 50s style soda fountain pony.

Beautiful photography.  I like the NZ images and the ones with bubbles are ultra cool.

Very nice!! How can someone think this is not art?

I know! Seriously! But when I asked Equestria Daily why they wouldn't post any of my photos, they said they "don't post pics of toys unless they are new." And yet they have a section for pony art, so clearly they don't consider photography art.

Gorgeous pics! And I love some of the styling as well...Flitterhearts curls and Cherilees braids are fantastic!

Thanks. Cheerilee was one of my first (she's from the schoolhouse playset), and I'm pretty happy with her hairstyle. With Flitterheart, I was experimenting with frizzy hair so I could style my daughter's Pinkie Pie. I quite liked it on Flitterheart, so I decided to keep it, although I recently noticed that the curls in the front are starting to come out a bit. One of these days I'll get around to fixing it up again.

With the others: I tried to make Lily's hair look like the picture on the box and I'm pretty happy with that result. Blossomforth's hippie hair looked pretty good until my daughters took away that headband. My Rarity is the one with tinsel, so there's not a lot I can do with it. I tried styling it in the classic Rarity style, but it didn't work. I ended up doing it up in lots of little braids, which I eventually let out, so now she's got big wavy hair. Sweetie Swirl's is pretty good. Fluttershy was my first attempt at cutting pony hair and I butchered it rather badly. Dewdrop's is OK, although I've been considering redoing hers. I never bothered styling Luna's, as I quite liked her box hair. Plumsweet's is my favorite hairstyle, although it went through several incarnations before I got it to the point where I was happy with it. Lastly, Honeybuzz ... her hair was pretty wavy but it's mostly gone flat from the humidity and such. I need to redo her hair, but I'm not really sure what I want to do with it yet.

That's silly, of course photography is art!  You're welcome to post your work here any time
