Sure it can be hard to find a balance between work and play, especially when you are enjoying the fruits of exotic living. When I lived on the west coast of the United States, the desire for partying was ever present, and I surely lived it up.
I was good at work as well, but lets face it, unless you are doing something you love to do, it really can be daunting to get in that mode.
It seems to me, that you really enjoy what you are doing. It shows. Beautiful photo. You are good at skirting the edges of provocativeness while maintaining elegance. No easy feat! Nicely done!
