279/365 Holga

279/365 Holga

This photo is from a Holga workshop that I took this past weekend.
I'm not sure how I feel about the whole film thing but I like the effect in this picture.
The film was expired and I must admit I'm not used to working with an adult model. 
It was out of my comfort zone for sure.

278/365 Life Lessons

278/365 LIfe Lessons

This week it was about how you can think you know someone really well and wake up one day to find out, really you can't even fathom who they are. It happened to me and I am still grieving the loss of that relationship. Really it had been over for a while but it came to a closing point, thank heavens. 
The power of a mind, I know I can talk myself into an extra scoop of ice cream not matter what. 
So I think, should it come as even an inkling of a surprise that others can talk themselves into things? 


Also I had a question, feel free to answer please. 
If you express concern for the path someone's life is taking, does that mean you are placing judgement on them? If so how do you express concern without making them feel like you are judging them?

277/365 Big Sister

277/365 Big Sister

That's what she is. A new big sister.


 She has the most amazing eyelashes.
This was the first time I think that she and I really connected and it was so much fun !!!
I miss this age so much sometime, well maybe just for a few minutes anyway.


Her mother assured me that she just hadn't had a chance to get any new winter clothes for her since the new baby arrived. I believe her, kind of.

276/365 Blue

276/365 Blue
I'm taking school photos at Little Man's school tomorrow. I was thinking of a bright blue background against the kids clothes. I think I am loving this background.


The kids helped me check it out today. They do love anything new. It's always amazing to me how no matter what it is if they haven't seen it or explored they are happy to do that.
Little Mama gave me some weird arm angles here, but I love the face !!!

275/365 Washington Again

275/365 Washington Again

So really the photos are completely unrelated to this post, but my camera is taking a siesta
with a big giant dot appearing in all my images.
Although then I think is there really a picture that relates to what I've been thinking about lately.


I think there are no pictures that I have taken that really talk about looking inside yourself.
During this trip to Washington, with a group of girls, I really had to take a long hard look at myself from the inside out. 
There is nothing I can do about the outside in terms if an immediate change, that's something that has to be worked on long term.
The inside is different though, you can create an immediate change, and I like to think that happened.


I feel like for the first time I saw a part of myself that I didn't like because it offends others, and I think this was the first time I didn't say let them endure it or leave.
I think this is the first time I realized I don't want to be offensive in this way and that it's my baby to change. So I'm starting today, I have a whole list of things that I think I want to change, in particular a list of certain ways I interact with people. I am praying that I can tell the difference between something I should change and something someone else wants me to change, I think I'm strong enough willed to do that.

274/365 Washington Thru My Camera

274/365 Washington Thru My Camera

It was so beautiful and quiet and peaceful and cool. I had forgotten how peaceful it is to 
be kind of out in the middle of nowhere, to really be in the wilderness.


 The beaches were so unlike anything we have here. I'm used to the Gulf coast and really it just 
isn't like comparing apples to apples. 


Everything was so wet and humid.


The trees were magnificent.


They were hanging onto any surface they could.


It was a logging town that we stayed in, this log had been hollowed out and you could walk 
into it.
