Boring, but it was late.

Today I finished my relief project for Design I. It took me at least 20 hours to complete, but I may be underestimating.

This was taken at the Del Ray Art on the Avenue. I was blown away by how many vendors were out hawking their wares. More images are available on my Flickr (look left).
These babies were so cute and their Ma was full-on in the next stall over so I wasn't too shy. A newfound bonus of having an awesome SLR is that your face is in the same place as the camera so if someone's going to look at you, they're going to look at the lens. Score!

Hasn't been the best week, really. Sometimes it's hard to see the forest through the trees. But I find something comforting in these round parsnips - things coming full circle, the interconnectedness (roots) between everything...
Sometimes I feel like I just go along with what's happening, letting the tide take me where it will. Doesn't that have to end at some point?

From the first pictures with my incredible new camera, shown. Of course, I haven't even gotten through the manual so I have no idea how to work the damn thing. Better photos are coming, I swear!
And apologies for the long break in updates - I've been busy like always but the past few days have been particularly trying. Have patience - I'll come back swinging.

Once a year my nonprofit throws a big party in Washington, DC for our trustees, all the people that give us money, and all the people we hope will give us money. Oh, and the staff. I had other obligations and so politely declined the invitation.
I had wedding photography on the mind when I shot this, imagining a bride in a huge beautiful dress beautifully side-lit by lovely pale light coming through the window. When I got the picture out, though, I was disappointed by how blurry my face is. Not noticeable in the small sizes at all but certainly not clear once you blow it up to 100%. Have I damaged my camera? Could it be that it just needs a good cleaning? Or have I perhaps finally begun to notice its limitations?

My brilliant boyfriend was a bit frustrated last night with his homework. It didn't help when I was trying to take pictures of it. This stuff looks like Chinese to me.

I should have been really relaxed yesterday because I didn't have to go to class (a whole three nights for me and George!) but I was ticked because of other crap. Thus, I present the not-b&w self-portrait I promised... it's still a self-portrait but at least I'm not trying to be attractive.
