But I think I&#8217;ve made up some of the time I lost when I took about a week each to do two (yep, two) of these pictures. I&#8217;m not completely sure why that happened&#8230; but there were technical problems, stubborn lighting issues, and what all, which in this case meant that I got ill for a few days in the middle of everything. Those two pictures could be the whole reason I&#8217;m running late.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">In fact, I want to go back and rework two <em>more<\/em> before they start to go live at the <a href=\"http:\/\/thrilling-tales.webomator.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Thrilling Tales<\/em><\/a> site.

I rewrote large parts of that one just before I added it to the site and I&#8217;m still a little worried about the fact that it&#8217;s different in tone&#8230; for reasons that are quite necessary, but which still worry me a little.
