Traveling

On the bus to Newark-

Flying from Newark to Denver 

Denver to Medford 

From farm fields to Mountains 

Now I'm in Ashland - Photos to come! 

Wishing for Winter

I may or may not have listened to Christmas carols last night.

Also I've just gone on a big digital editing kick, so hopefully more posts more often.

I need to shoot in square more often.

These two are from SLC and the High Line in NYC

New York

I wouldn't say homesick more than Nostalgic.

I was drinking peppermint tea this morning and the feeling of Autumn/Winter in NY just overcame me. 

Immediately I wanted to look up Anthropologie and figure out what plays were up in the city. 

Some memories from First Year: 

Easter #3

Not as many posts this week because I've been staying in a hostel during my orientatiton.

Dublin is Beautiful. I can't wait to show you guys pictures! 

After the Botanical Garden we went to the city:

That one square with the architecture and the flowers - was wonderful :)

Oh and

Meet my new profile picture - That Ugly Doll in the corner, his name is Big Toe!

Easter #2

I don't take a ton of photos of flowers, but...

I loved the flowers that day :)

Easter Break Photos

I am so backlogged on photos!

I'm hoping that soon I'll at least be showing you all summer photos 

(even though in Ireland, its technically already fall...) 

Anyway - Easter weekend, in the New York Botanical Garden in the Bronx and NYC. 

Shopping for Easter Dinner in the Bronx:

Playing Catch Up

When I started this blog, I had a ton of photos to show everyone.

So, since I've began this, I've been playing catch up.

It's currently the middle of August, and I'm in Edinburgh (for The Fringe) but yet, here are some photos from the Spring in Bronxville. 

Don't worry - Edinburgh soon :) 

Why is there red in these photos? 

Funny story - When I was trying to get this film out of my camera, something strange happened, and the film broke apart from the canister. So I sat in my closet, and rolled the whole thing up in the dark. These two were at the end of the roll, and got some light. 

And they're some of my favourite on the roll!

Dancing Light

I tried to post something on Tuesday while I was on lunch break, but the internet was too slow!

Light Blur on the High Line

Indoor Market

This is from the same indoor market I mentioned below. 

Loved all the fresh fruit!

Suzanne

Suzanne is one of my mother's friends. She is very eccentric, and very wonderful.

Suzanne likes to have art in her house from those around her. For instance, at the moment, she has multiple photos done by my mother, and a coloured pencil drawing of converse by me.

Soon she will also have these three photos hanging in her office:

 

The first photo was taken the day before Easter at an indoor market on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, the second was taken late at night at Rockefeller Center this past winter, and the third in Wassenaar, (Holland,) on my walk to the shopping street this spring.

Thank you Suzanne!

It's Dark Out

It's a rainy day here in Houston, Texas. 

So this morning, instead of waking up to sunshine I woke up to cloudy and gray.

Maybe it's time for some night shots? 

A street in NYC at night with the Diana Mini

And then not on the blur setting, but with a slight amount of movement. Again, in NYC at night, I think right out side of Grand Central?

Final Festival Photos

These are the last of the New Island Festival bunch.
There were just so many interesting things out for the festival,

Like this chalk wall sculpture

Or these paintings, done by Dutch art students

And this contraption, that turned into an acrobatic, theatrical performance after dark.
It was good times.

Governors Island

Governors Island is gorgeous. 

Especially with all the art from the Festival all around.

Governors Island used to be a kind of Military base and the architecture reflects that. There are all these big stately buildings that look almost southern, surrounded by huge trees and streets. And directly over the trees is the New York City skyline. It's really a beautiful place.

New Island Festival

The New Island Festival was an Arts festival that was held in New York on Governor's Island as a part of the events taking place in The Netherlands and New York City to celebrate the 400th year since Henry Hudson landed on Manhattan. One of the attractions was a performance by Boom Chicago, an Amsterdam based, American run theatre group that works similarly to Second City. I interned for Boom Chicago, so I headed out to see them, and had a wonderful time with my friend Emily exploring the festival.

More photos to come :)

Diana Mini Goes To NYC

My mother and I went into the city a ton while she was here.

I brought along Diana Mini.
One of the things we did was wander along the High Line at sunset.

Some of the photos are rather grainy, but I don't mind. That's what you get with film!
And next time, for sunsets, a higher ISO!



You can see so much of the city from there. Like this building:



I took this photo through the railing!


The great thing about this camera is the way you can play with light.



I love all the little light squiggles!
This is probably my favourite:


I would encourage everyone to visit the High Line, it's so beautiful.
It will be wonderful in the summer; I can't wait!
