I’ve really been hating my selfies for a long time now.  they’re so much harder than simply taking photos of another person which I’d much rather do, hands down.  but I still love the spontaneity of selfies.  just taking off on your own to create something, so I vowed to get out this past weekend and shoot some selfies outside (everything inside I completely hated) and to use my 50mm.  another thing I haven’t done in a while.  the weather was wonderful and finally felt like Spring.  it was good to be out in it.
well, here’s to gettin’ back into it.  :)

flying against the wind on Flickr.Via Flickr:
another from my visit to the Washington coast.  I was hoping to find a large bleached piece of driftwood to stand in front of for this image but unfortunately there weren’t that many giant pieces and they were all pushed up against the shore in a line after the last high tide so they were also hard to get to.  this rock was pretty cool so I gave it a try.  goose feathers courtesy of the flock at the lake by my house.  and in case you were wondering who I take a lot of my photo adventures with it’s this guy.  always travel with a buddy.  he’s kind of a nut but he’s also a good driver.  ;)  he also just got a new Canon and a bunch of new lens so you should check his stream out.
TGIF!!  I have a vacation day today so I got to sleep in. it is of course raining though.  :/  hopefully it will clear up later.  have a great weekend ya’ll!website | blog | twitter | facebook | S6 View high resolution

another from the desert workshop.  this image was great to begin with but I wanted to try and give it even more visual impact.  I built out the canvas to square and added a cloudy, more interesting sky.  I think I could do an even better job but I still like this. :)
gotta go shower and meet a friend for lunchies.  enjoy the rest of your sunday~

Wanderlust on Flickr.Via Flickr:
this is the story of a young girl who dreams of adventure on the high seas and travel to foreign lands she’s only dreamed of.  this is wanderlust.
here is the final image in this series and probably my most favorite.  it has such a sense of freedom in it.  well, I really loved creating this story and piecing it together in these images.  I hope you enjoyed them too!
my image running water is part of the group exhibition for the next month at the Kat Kiernan Gallery. so if anyone is around Lexington, VA and you happen by, please tell me how it looks!  :)
