to all my... fans?

sorry i havent been posting guys... exams have got the better of me i suppose. i will be back to regular daily posts after the new year!

something to look forward to? hahaha... for me at least.

in the mirror

i took this by accident a while ago... think it turned out kind of neat!

comments would be appreciated, as always.

self-portrait

so, i thought maybe it was time to show my face

... even though im pretty sure that everyone who checks this site already knows what i look like :P

(also trying out the no-border thing, i think i might stick with it for a while... let me know what you think!)

united

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.

summer seems so far away

its been a long term... i miss you guys

up-close and personal

i dont really have much to say about this one, but im proud of it... i think its my favourite so far.

hope you like it too!

where ive been

home is where you hang your hat... or where you spend every ungodly hour, working away like a busy bee trying to finish crazy assignments

and, home is where your heart is :)

i can feel the es love from here

welcome to winter

i took this photo in Waterloo Park the other day. i thought the creek looked especially pretty with all the winter-y looking plants around it

enjoy!

peeking through

i saw this little dandelion the other day and thought it was special... so i decided to take a picture of it for you!

:)

pines in the light

i took this photo in my complex the other night after it snowed... again :) my photos always seem to be a little bit darker here than when i work on them... but hopefully you can see the whole tree on the right, i really like how the light plays off the needles.

cattail

this is one of my favourite photos from spongy lake, i had a bit of fun with the colours too!

let me know what you think!

in the coffee shop

i took this a while ago... one saturday while i was locked in the Geddes Lab all day working on a GIS project with justin... fun times? :P

at least i finally caught the flowers while they were open!

in loving memory

this post is dedicated to a special family member of mine who passed away two days ago. she will be missed.

so slick

here is another shot from spongy lake :D i took this photo of the fallen leaves as i was walking. hope you enjoy it!

standing in the snow

hope your feet didn't get wet!

fun in the bog

here are some action shots from yesterday's trip... hope you enjoy them!

frosty

today there were snow squalls in waterloo's forecast. today was also the day that my ecology lab went on a field trip to spongy lake! it was a lot of fun and i took a lot of pictures - there will be more to come!

birthday wishes

happy belated birthday davey! i hope you had an awesome night - it looks like you did!

ps - philthy's looks a little less disgusting from these angles :)

so happy

"You are the one who's led me to the sun. How could I know that I was lost without you... I can't believe it, you're a dream comin' true. I can't believe how I have fallen for you."

happy 9 month-a-versary justin!

when the leaves were green

this is a photo i took in the dorney garden outside of ES a few months back. the chickadees were flying around so quickly that once, i pressed the button to take a photo of one and by the time my camera had actually taken the picture, that bird had flown away and another one had replaced it!

they are cute little buggers though.

wilting

my highschool art teacher always used to say that art is more interesting when it incorporates something that we normally consider to be "ugly"

through examining this photo i have finally come to understand what he meant. the colour and beauty that can be seen in the dying buds present here truly do intrigue me.

slippery slope

once upon a time, there was a girl who liked to play on this slide. she slid down the slide, climbed up the slide, and had a picnic... on the slide.

i forget how the rest of the story goes... but you get the point - its a great slide.

flying high

i took this photo during one of last summer's many camping trips, this time at emily provincial park. this was one of the weekend's better shots for me but i accidentally loaded it wrong so the resolution is a lot lower than usual - let me know if you can see a difference!

justin

this is justin! i really do enjoy taking photos of him, but in this particular photo, i think the most fun part is the background. i had a grand time playing with the liquify tool on this one!

tell me what you think!

like cherries

these two shots are here to expose my love of tomatoes. they are my favourite vegetable... or fruit, and these particular cherry tomatoes happen to be from my parents' garden back in Hamilton!

in the parking lot

this picture is from way back in the summer! does anyone recognize that parking lot? you should... its the one we (all us hamilton girls) had to walk up a bizillion stairs to get to after the olypmic island concert!

comments would be appreciated!

memories of a summer past

this is a picture i took on the first night of a camping trip at longpoint this summer. the wind was crazy, but the sandbars, seagulls, and sunset were gorgeous.

tall, dark, and mysterious?

here is my first post!

this is a photo from the J. Steckle Heritage Homestead in Kitchener. the sky is spooky... i like it... almost as much as i like autumn!

hope you enjoy it!
