Something new

I took this photo in Namibia's Naukluft National Park in May a couple of years ago.  There had been lots of very rare rainfall and as such the desert was coated in green grass and little yellow daisies.

beach time.. San Clemente, Ca

 

I made a little promise to myself for this year, well several actually, but this one involves you my lovely readers... I wanted to include more original content here on the blog.  I have a deep love for photography and I used to spend a lot of time taking photos, but had really abandoned it last year in the hurried life I was leading.  I promised myself that I would pick up my "big" camera and use it, really use it, try to capture more of my life in photos, my work in photos and all of the things that I want to share with you.  I found that through my love affair with instgram, that what I love most is manipulating the photos I take and the artistic part of changing them to how I want them to feel.  I hope you don't mind, it is just time to evolve a little here.  

I am hoping that it will also give us a chance to see a little more of California, as in get me out of the office a little more to inspire me creativity.  Besides who doesn't love the beach in the middle of January!

2012 a little review... my love affair with instagram

 

It has been a wonderful year!  I was looking through my photos and realized that I really have an obsession with not only my phone but with Instagram..  It allows me to capture any moment of my life and I love to be able to see what inspires me after in a little refresher long after the moment has passed.   These are just a few of my favorites....

This last one is one of my all time favorites.. love these guys!  Wishing you a wonderful day of memories from 2012!  xoxo
