Carnival Rides

Winter 2012 - Edinburgh Winter Festival

These are some long exposures of lights on carnival rides in the Edinburgh Winter festival. I love the  glow of lights on wintry nights!

Winter 2012 - Christmas Lights

All these photos are from the official turning-on-the-lights at Edinburgh. That first shot though, looks like something from outer space, no?

Visiting Wassenaar - Friends

Wassenaar - April 2011

Basically I have some really pretty friends who let me take photos of them.

Oranjefest #2

Oranjefest

This was when my camera was still set to "bulb" and overexposing stuff in daylight like a jerk.

But at night...

It was perfect for Oranjefest.

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: 

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

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?
