A Post: A second look at Stevo in the Arboretum

Hello, lovelies. Sorry that I've gotten behind, I have had a ton of work and family. I have an update right now, and probably another tomorrow. Enjoy the second part of my trip with the boy.
During his mythical journey, the boy becomes one of the trees.

And further with his brethren he basks in the sun peeking through the canopy of leaves.

And he was so enthralled, that he could barely open his eyes. (ok, i just loved the picture, and it would have been better if he wasn't closing his eyes.)

The boy met all sorts of creatures and foliage, but none more interesting than this guy.

And he moved freely, mimicking the motion of the plant life.

And this tree has a hole in it. :D

A Post: A day with the boy at the arboretum (pt 1 of 2)

Well, beautifuls, the boy and I took an adventure the Sunday before last and went to the Chesapeake Arboretum. It was perfect, chilly (so no bugs) and the lighting really helped me get my first lesson in shadows, bright light and so fourth. I feel like the trip helped me grow a lot in photo blogging. Please enjoy!

Stevo, starting out his journey as an amazing photographer- and, you , know putting a 1-up in nature.

I felt like these looked like something prehistoric. I know, the front one is out of focused, just assume that's how it's supposed to be, ok?

I could probably end up with a whole hard drive of pictures of plant life.

The iron and clay from bricks and other debris made this water so red. It seemed unnatural, yet beautifully juxtaposed with the green overhang.

They built a rail into the tree. I have a sweet picture of the actual rail, but I didn't use it.

The boy. Love.

I love how this appears to be floating.

A Post: A week past

Sorry that I seem to keep getting behind. I'm still working on it and I have a TON of photos to do, so don't worry. You'll get more love. I've got these half dozen for you now, though! ENJOY

I am a crafter. This is how you know. Those boxes are gone and this is all organized, though!

Apparently my apartment complex killed the hornets that were dwelling in this, but didn't think it necessary to remove it from a foot away from my porch. Naturally, I got close and snapped a picture.

I frothed the milk so stiff that the caramel just sat on top of my macchiato until i got half way through. Then i licked it off because I have no self control.

The boy. At one of our favorite places. Enjoying a Barry White.

None of these sheets were purchased.

Apparently, I can take over the world in this dress. Who knows, maybe one day, I will.
