I like trees.

Guys, lately I have been loving trees. I don't know why. I really love their silhouettes and they can be so graphic. I have been taking photos of them with my phone on walks, and with my film camera and DSLR where ever I go. It's kind of a strange obsession of mine. Maybe it's like collecting mason jars?
It has been so nice forcing myself to take my camera places again. I just kind of stopped creating art for a while. Aside from taking photos for this blog, I have started taking more artistic photos again too. I have missed it. I guess I did take artistic photos for my film class last semester, but I have been getting back into doing with with my DSLR as well.

These trees were so lovely to shoot. I think I am ready to start creating actual art again. I know, I've been saying that for a while now, but I think I'm being for real now. One step at a time...

Have a lovely weekend! I'll be spending my weekend babysitting, visiting with my aunt, and relaxing (hopefully)!

Because I'll never go to school here.

This past weekend, we decided to visit the Stanford University campus since it is only about 20 minutes away from home. I had only ever been to the shopping mall right next to it and their hospital, but never to the actual campus. It is absolutely gorgeous! I had fun shooting a roll of film here and taking some photos with my DSLR. I definitely want to go back to explore more of the campus and to take some outfit photos. Even though that may be awkward...
It is so wonderful to be completely engrossed in something you are doing and to block the rest of the world out. That is how I feel when I am behind my camera lens. Everything else doesn't matter and I can truly be in the moment.

I had a blast shooting these so I just thought I'd share :)

Happy Thursday! Who is ready for the weekend?
