Go grab a drink, maybe something to eat, pull up a chair get comfy, cause this one is going to be a long one. The story of my travels to UTA needs it’s own post because I’m sure you’ll laugh at how ridiculous it is. It all began a week prior when I dropped Kayla […]
I was sitting at the leisure centre doing my knitting while waiting for Miles to finish his swim class. I look up and notice the sunset, it was stunning and wished I had the camera. Then it hit me, it was Tuesday and it was photo day. By the time I got home, the sun […]
We all have a person, a thing, a moment, or a memory that is special to us. What makes it special? Why is it special to you? Today I want you to define your special. Tell its story and why it means so much to you. Your unique stories characterize and shapes who you are. […]
When life throws you lemons, you make lemonade. Which is why there hasn’t been a check in since February. There has been running, and lots of it. My random foot issues resolved in time, and I only missed the first 2 weeks of my UTA training cycle. If you haven’t already done so, grab your […]
Was wandering outside at lunchtime pondering about what I should take for my Tuesday photo. The decision was made when Tom told me about some toadstools that he noticed that morning. Most had died off with the warmth of the sun, except this one. Grabbing the camera, and playing with the extension tubes I had […]
In 2010, I did a 365 photography project. Let’s just say it was a lot harder than I expected. I didn’t miss a day, but it really made me think outside the box. While I haven’t done the 365 projects again, I have done 30-day challenges and this year, a twist on the traditional 52-week […]
With a day off in lieu, I knew exactly where I wanted to go for this weeks quest. Ideally, I would have like to have more cloud cover, so I could play with filters and do a long daylight exposure. Alas, that was not meant to be. There will be plenty more opportunities I know, […]
We all have dreams. Dreaming big starts when we are just kids with the simple question “What do you want to be when you grow up?”. If I said I want to be a ballerina astronaut, no one would have batted an eyelid. I bet if a kid told you that today you’d be like […]
In 2010 (or around then), I read a book called “The Hollow”. One of the main characters favourite thing to do was make custom perfumes or scents. The book was kind of crappy, but the thought of making an aroma that was unique to me was quite appealing. Then in 2017, I came across another book […]
After last weeks debacle, I decided that I would take some photo’s before work, and then take some again after work. That way I would have choices. Some in actual daylight, and some in fading light. While it’s nice to capture life around our town, I know it’s not always possible. Posed photo has their […]
