This weekend was filled with a lot of firsts: croquet,
lipstick, niçoise, and capturing droplets of water in a photograph. Even though I've been "taking photos" for a few years, this new digital photography class is teaching me a lot of things I would never have known otherwise. I've gotten to used to using my camera the same way for the past four years and it's really amazing to see that there are a ton of things it can do that I never realized.
I spent so much time alone this weekend. Some people might see this as a bad thing, but having that time to myself has been refreshing. I got to work on my photos at my own pace, read for
fun, and spend more time with my ukulele. As much as I love being with friends and family, sometimes, it's just nice to sit back and feel yourself grow.
I support reading for fun!

i love love love the croquet photo for some odd reason. it's so prim and borderline wasp-y, but hilarious. love it and all of your photos for that matter :) weekends spent alone are so recharging every once in a while, nothing to be ashamed of :)
