A liitle Christmas tree bokeh for your evening!

Snow Day

Still snowing.... No need to get dressed up today. I'd say we have 8 inches so far, and it's still coming down!

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!!

It's the best time of the year!!!! Yay, it's snowing pretty hard here, everyone is trapped at home... we're supposed to get 6 to 10 inches of snow! Hopefully it'll stick around until the end of next week... we hardly ever have a white Christmas!

Happy Holidays!!

Happy Holidays to all of you ! I hope your wishes come true!

Love Me.

Everybody wants to be loved right? i love love. i love being in love. i don't care what it does to me. take these tattered boxes that used to hold your clothes. break them down. build them back up with your bones. now all you do is construct a mess. you're good to me when only flesh. you're memory with nothing to show. we would take trips. we swore we'd never take pictures. pictures only prove you can't convince.
Now i wish those photographs could convince you that what we had would only turn out a negative.
well well well
if fingertips are relationships then i could barely carry your weight.
if fingers are mistakes. don't lose this one to point the blame.no, just sing. sing, "i love love. i love being in love. i don't care what it does to me."these pills are fine to pass the time 'til i find my new drug and we'll take our chances. we'll last a month. we'll never speak again.
how i love being in love.

My Salute

Wrap Me Up

Hold me close.This was one of those ideas that seems WAY cooler in your head!! So, I ended up turning it b&w and cropping the hell out of it!!! Oh well.

He Loves Me...

...He loves me not...

Dainty

I love these little flowers, they're growing at my bf's house, and they look just like baby's breath, but they are pink!

Lazy

Please

wish we'd always wake up new
refreshed and born again
with nothing left to lose
we dream too much,
who needs a crutch?
pull off the bandage, theres no wound
so please just leave,
you dont mean that much to me
give back the ring,
keep all those summers with your friends
cause you know you need them
as for me its nothing new,
just another two years

AMAZING song, you should hear it!

Like a bird...

Something a little different for me.

Flower Bokeh

Today I stopped at one of the gorgeous local nurseries in my neighborhood.... I walked around and took a bunch of pictures...

Angel

Looking in to your eyes
I see all I want to be
And I don't want it to end
If I could only put two words the way
I see you
I only know I had an angel with me now
And when I fall asleep, you're all that I see
You're in my thoughts and all of my prayersI
wish I could be all that you mean to me
My angel without wings
My angel-Taking Back Sunday

Pearls

Kinda' Boring, but I like the light and values I got here.....

Bringin' Sexy Back...

This is what I normally look like, when I'm not trying to look pretty in my self portraits...

Like Ghosts

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WANTED TO KNOW HOW I DID THIS :

The sun was almost down, but there was a little bit of light left (just before dark).
I just set my camer on AV mode, which is shutter speed priority, you choose the shutter speed, the camera chooses everything else. Of course you could set everything manually if you so choose.
I set my camera on the tripod & chose 30 seconds for the shutter speed.
I stood in each of these three positions for a few seconds, which is why there is a blur between the me's, from me walking.

That's it... This is all one exposure, no combining in Photoshop. :-)

Trapped

claustrophobia- fear of being trapped in an inescapable place or situation.

I have a phobia of being trapped, being anywhere that I can't get out of. I don't go in elevators and I don't even really like being in other people's cars. Feeling trapped whether it's physical or mental gives me serious anxiety....

For my Dad

My Dad is the best! I don't see him as often as I should, because we are both really busy, but he is the greatest dad there is...

My Dad is a great inspiration, I love him so much, and I'm thankful that he always gave me guidance while letting me lead my own way, I'm thankful for him inspiring me to be a photographer, and to excell at school, I'm thankful that my Dad passed on his artistic genes, and that it's a love that we both share. Thanks Dad, you are the best! I love you.

Eye Heart You

This was SO much harder than I thought it was going to be!! I'm not really happy with it...

The coolest thing...

...just happened!! I had my sliding glass door cracked with my camera peeking up at the sky, trying to take some lightning photos (hopeless) & this guy landed right on my lens!! I stuck my finger out and he walked right onto it!!! He hung out with me for a while, and even let me do a little photo shoot! How cool! I think this is a moth, but it was ridiculously beautiful!
His belly is amazing too & orange!

Three's a Crowd

This bokeh is a little busy, but I like it!

Life

... it's been BR-U-TALLY hot & humid here the past few days.... I have been in no mood to do SP's... looking forward to some thunderstorms tonight!

Love

I love how my bf's hands are so much bigger than mine, it makes me feel so safe whenever he touches me.

New & Improved Iris!!

Now with more bokeh! I really like this shot... I love iris and I can't get enough of them!

Shadows

Long day today, but a good one. I bought my very first brand new car, Yay! For everybody who wanted to know, I left behind a '98 broken down civic for my brand new Mercedes Benz CLK350!!! Haha, yeah right... I just bought a new Hyundai i30... and it's got plenty of luxury for me, I love it!!!
