waterscapes

apparently got a little obsessed with waterscapes this past weekend. found a definite theme going through my shots.

waterscapes from the top:

  • (1) bodega bay
  • (2) tomales bay + point, from dillon beach
  • (3-5) dillon beach
  • (6) pacific ocean, from dillon beach overlook
  • (7-8) san pablo bay

what are you obsessed with photographing lately?

fake spring

we had our first fake spring (happens every february). it was 70 and sunny, and it brought on some serious spring fever. took river walks both days with leo (ed came along tonight too), and we ogled and sniffed the first cherry blossoms. seems like winter went by here impossibly fast, but then again, it’s supposed to rain every single day for the next week, so i guess it’s not over yet.

are you watching portlandia? it makes me LOL! watch:

field trip

despite its torrential windstorminess, i loved today. went on a field trip to our favorite birdplace with clyde’s class. i will never tire of watching birds or watching my son raise his hand with eager answers. even if he holds his hand up for questions that haven’t even been asked yet.

don’t miss the new this joy+ride, issue #52, with lovely film from abby powell thompson.

quiet

quiet

feeling quiet this week, undoubtedly a response to a more-lively-and-public-than-feels-natural work life. i can do both pretty well; however, it starts to make me feel like a split personality, which can lead both personalities into their polar opposite corners, i guess.

not taking as many photos as i’d like but still enjoying the instax mini from time to time. maybe i’m slow, but i’m just now realizing how much instant photos depend on good light. good, bright light. without it, might as well skip the shot. am i right?

been doing a little tv escapism. i’ll try not to be ashamed of my choices as i share them with you.

  • new series skins, oh my! but i sort of can’t wait to see episode 2
  • just finished up celebrity rehab 4 (hey man, recovery is recovery…)

on a less shame-inducing note, still working my way through season one of in treatment and started jean-michel basquiat: the radiant child last night but fell asleep (not because it wasn’t good). anyone seen it? makes me sort of long for what seemed like much simpler artistic times of 1970s nyc. technology fears sort of stop me up creatively. what about you?

anyone watching portlandia? heard it’s good.

oh an reading, you ask? oh, i don’t read offline anymore. are you kidding? ha!

did recently enjoy reading online:
