My Photography in 2013

At the beginning of this year I had a nice plan for working more on photography.  And it actually worked for about a month or so, and then life got in the way.  I haven’t abandoned my photography – not at all!  I’ve even tried out a new (to me) type of lens (I rented a macro and fell in love with it).  The end result is fairly similar, yet the path I've taken so far is different.

determined

In less than a year I won't live in this state anymore.  Hopefully, we'll be buying our first home, settling into where we're going to live for maybe the next ten years of our lives.  In less than a year, many things about my life will have changed.  This means that currently I'm taking the time to set some goals, not for where I want to be, physically, but with what I want to be doing.

sanity fractured

In the beginning it wasn't pervasive, it was simply there and then gone.  It wasn't something I was unfamiliar with, just something I didn't really want to face.  It didn't take up more than three weeks of a month - more like just three days, and that was easily ignored.

memories

My husband and I recently arrived back home from a two and a half week vacation to Europe, but this wasn't any normal vacation to Europe.  this was me exploring places I had lived as a high school kid and hadn't seen in years and trying to show my husband all of the memories I had of my time there.  It's impossible to pack that many years into such a little amount of time, but we tried.

Dreams go grey...

full circle

It’s ironic, when I think about it, how much my life has gone, if not full circle, come back around again.
