Hi! I'm the person who cosplayed Queen Esther at Fanime
You've got some really neat cosplay photos and it's great that you're familiar with the characters. Would you mind if I featured that photo in my gallery? With credits to you of course.

+Watching for your cosplay photography and because we seem to share a fondness for Chopin

NicolaiAndrews In reply to thepumRs [2011-06-27 01:39:45 +0000 UTC]

Heey!! Sorry it took me a while to get back, I've been terribly bad at replying to things lately ;-;

Anyways,thanks! That means a lot, especially considering you're a fantastic cosplayer!

Of course, that's you in there! It's all yours! Feel free to use the full size too!

And YESSS Chopin. He's my favorite pianist! His music isn't too soft, or to quick. It's soothing to just listen to a nice melody played by just one person. I hate to be like mostly everyone else, but Prelude in D-Flat Major is my favorite! haha

thepumRs In reply to NicolaiAndrews [2011-06-27 02:18:58 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!

Haha what a coincidence, I was just practicing that piece the other day. Very lovely. Yes he truly is the poet of the piano with a tenderness and sweetness unmatched by others. My favorite of his is his Ballade no. 4.

NicolaiAndrews In reply to thepumRs [2011-07-03 03:51:06 +0000 UTC]

Oh mah gosh you can actually play it?? That's amazing!! Do you ever post any videos of yourself playing these songs? That would be great to see! I always wished I could play the piano xD

thepumRs In reply to NicolaiAndrews [2011-07-15 18:49:13 +0000 UTC]

I'm not really the type to record myself playing ^_^;; But I'm flattered that you would want to listen

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

NicolaiAndrews In reply to thepumRs [2011-07-16 14:23:51 +0000 UTC]

Well then I guess we better find you a piano at a convention!

But yeah, of course I'd wanna listed. That's an amazing skill, one I truly wish I had! The dexterity and concentration required to play the piano is immense, and anyone that can manage that is worth of praise. Not only that, you can also make incredible cosplays, so I'm wondering how you manage to find any time! XD

dazzlenacht In reply to NicolaiAndrews [2011-07-01 04:22:52 +0000 UTC]

It was really fun posing with her. Some cosplayers are too stiff and uncomfortable with other cosplayers they don't know.

yesss totally up for talking. tbh, I don't use aim as much as skype since I'm on a mac. XD Do you have that?

hahah, sorry that took a while
I've been studying my ass off in ochem recently.

And YES. You know my name now! XD XD
haha


oh oh oh, I've been meaning to ask you- when we were standing in line for our con registration, you said something about getting a different filter and lens for my SLR. I am such a newbie camera-wise. I have a decent cam body, but only an 18-55 lens and uv filter. What do you recommend I purchase next?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

NicolaiAndrews In reply to dazzlenacht [2011-07-18 03:43:29 +0000 UTC]

You're never oooon!! XD

The filter I was referring to was a polarizing filter. It basically lets you add contrast to your pictures, make dem blues really blue for instance, and also protects your lens better!

One of the best lenses I would recommend anyone to get is the 35mm f/1.8

It's a magical lens like no other, and very cheap too!

dazzlenacht In reply to NicolaiAndrews [2011-08-06 18:32:40 +0000 UTC]

kyaaaaaaa I'm super duper sorry about that. *smacks own hand*
And for this delayed reply. *awkward whistling*
I'm in my last week of summer chemistry courses at my university, and I haven't been doing much of anything in regards to my social and cosplay life XD


mmkay, thank you for the recommendation! I'll check it out asap
