two of my favorite people!

Some photos 
I did for my 
sister and 
her husband 
last weekend:] 
they're about 
to move, which 
makes me sad 
- but, no, 
that isn't 
  their house;)    

 

Wintertime

These pics were actually taken Dec. 1st, 

but i haven't had time to post until now… 

can't wait for finals to be over and DONE! 

But, Christmas is only…

[counting off my fingers]…

22 days away. woohoo!

This song is beautiful, if you like instrumentals, and i hope you do, 

because this song is amazingly good:

Flash Photography… allowed?

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving:] I went out on the porch with my dog, Pearl, for three seconds (because it's absolutely, completely freezing!!) to check out the cool pink sunset, and i decided, what the heck, i'll use the flash on my camera, because i never do. because i think, as a general rule, flashes ruin photos… but, i kinda like these few shots? hmmm. i'm still a little unsure. but i think maybe that i'll start experimenting/using flash a little more often. we'll see.

Trees & Reflections

[This one is for free]:

Pt. 1 Trees:

Pt. 2 Reflections:

P.S. … Angus & Julia Stone are amazing, if you haven't heard of them already. They're a brother/sister duo from Sydney, Australia. I love this song (especially the strings):

Mirrored

Two mirrors. Two open laptops (holding up the mirrors). A recycled flower from an arrangement that was about to be tossed out. A piece of my little sis's scrapbook paper. Direct afternoon sun. Hmmmm… i think these turned out pretty cool:]
oh, and the colors are unedited.

Rainbows:))

Ok so I didn't edit the color at all… I think that the first pic is my favorite:)) It makes me happy. 

Annnnd this song is currently stuck in my head:

Plums&Pears

7 out of 72 photos of plums and pears that i took this afternoon… i have no idea why i took so stinking many lol. most of them didn't turn out that great, but i think these are the best of the [ridiculously large] bunch. LOVE the combo of shapes/colors. i experimented with loads of manual settings, and also moved the subject around in different lighting to get the different shadows… hmmm i've never really worked with still life like this, so let me know what you think!
