june 7th

it turns out i have to get used to the blogging thing again, and being a photographer again! my last year emphasized graphics so much, i’ve fallen away from photo a little bit. im glad we focused on design though, because after all, i am a design major. it’s funny how much design is actually lacking from the program but then again, it is because of the balance of everything that i got into photography so i guess it all works out. anyways, it looks like i’m going to have to train myself to bring my camera with me everywhere again, and see things as a photographer. i really want to get back to where i was in London when my whole existence was to take photos. but it’ll be better because i’ll be taking them for me! instead of for a professor whom i could never please.

i tried to take a photo in the shower today. not actually in the shower, just in the bathroom right after, when the mirror was all fogged up. i was aiming for a blurred silhouette with my hand on the mirror, going for a raw essence kind of picture. it didnt work well though cuz the lens on my camera got too fogged up and it couldn’t focus on anything. ill have to practice that cuz i think it could be a good picture. it’s been hard to find things that represent what i’m feeling, mainly because i’ve been frustrated a lot and i dont know how to express that. it’s been bright and sunny lately which isnt reflecting my moods, but then again, that’s probably a good thing. it’s a little perk to the day, because sunshine always makes me feel better. i should probably just change my mood to match the weather! then everyone wins :-)
