Springtime

Okay, so I know technically springtime is almost over for most of you, but here in the Northeast, everything is finally blooming (take that, winter). Today is such a nice day outside that I just had to get out there and take a couple of photos (32 to be exact...yes, I often get carried away with the Rebel).

Here are just three of my favorites!

Roadtrip Photos

I can't believe I only took 9 photos on the Rebel this past weekend! You'd think a whole weekend away would result in dozens upon dozens of photos to remember each glinting moment with...but...nope. Not this time, at least (if you follow me on Instagram you'll see that I did actually take non-photographical *made up word* pictures over the weekend, however non-blogworthy *also made up word* they seem).

I can't wait now that the weather is (finally!!) getting warmer to get out there and take some new photos! Until then, I hope you all are having an amazing spring & taking photos, too!

Photo Challenge Day 25: Soft

   okay so i got bored with posting these on instagram, so i figured i would post the last week of the photo challenge on here, since i never post on here {though i always intend to!} so, what's been going on since my last post here? nothing much. just random little things. just life, like the rest of you readers. i can't wait until it's spring and the flowers and the greens and the blue skies start returning, for tonight, though, there is snow forecasted and the weather has been chilly.

   so here's the day's photo challenge. if i'm good i'll think tomorrow & post tomorrow's...but...you know me..

   this is my cat. she's made an appearance on the blog before but i thought that since she's pretty soft and the post theme today was soft, what a perfect combination! although the lighting in the room was too bright, so she's actually darker than this photograph.

Winter Wonderland

I haven't updated in a month???? What has happened to the time! It's supposed to slow down in winter time and be nice and cozy and you're supposed to get caught up on everything you don't have time for the other months of the year. Apparently not. But I'm updating right now, so there.

Since it's winter, what would winter be without snow? {At least, here in the Northeast}

The Fog!

I love fog. Except, driving in it. That really scares me. Like I'm going to accidentally run someone over. Irrational thoughts, by Audrey.

I haven't really ever shot in the fog {oops I lied, I took photos once before in it} before these so forgive their over-amateurish qualities.

 couldn't decide if i liked this one...

 or this one...

Ice Storm {Part 2}

    I was editing tonight and decided I wasn't too impressed with the other pictures that I promised you of part 2, so I thought maybe I would try them in black and white (I love black and white photography. Think Ansel Adams or Alfred Eisenstaedt except for the fact that I will never attain to their epic awesomeness).

   So instead of posting all mediocre photos just to post a post (hello from the department of redundancy department) I bring you the ice in black in white :) hope you enjoy!

   (And p.s.-can you help my blog make it 11k pageviews? We're almost there!)

Ice Storm {Part 1}

   I realized I had a lot of photos of the ice storm {although it wasn't nearly as impressive as I thought it would be} so I couldn't show them all to you in one blog post {also I don't have time to edit them in one sitting} that's why I've labelled it "Part One".

   Can you believe it's 2014 already? Seems like yesterday that my dad bought me my first point and shoot and the passion was ignited. My goal for this year is to post more often, and to do that, I'll have to get out there more than I did last year and shoot photos for those posts.

   If you want to get the spark back between you and your camera, I suggest going to watch "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" {the new one with Ben Stiller. I love the old one with Danny Kaye, though, for other reasons} because you will not only want to dust off your camera, but you're going to want to visit Iceland and take amazing photos {I've started saving for my next adventure, who knows where it will be, but one thing I know for sure is that it will be somewhere there are amazing shots to be taken}. Also, you will want to download the soundtrack, because it has some pretty great music on it.

   Okay. So, the photos you have been waiting for {why would you visit this blog if you weren't here for the photos, because the blog writer is kind of a ditz and writes like this is her own personal journal}.....
