Sans School
Hello everyone! Just have time to pop in for a bit of blogging before I dash off to Girl Scouts for the evening and then settle down to watch Ugly Betty (who else loves that show)?! =) It has been a little boring with no school, and procrastination set in so I got no homework done, but I have taken lots of photographs and thought I would share a selection. Oh, and guess what? It is STILL snowing…you won’t understand how absolutely huge a deal this is unless you live in England but it is all over the news and over 2500 schools are closed. All public transport is delayed…it’s chaotic, but fun. We haven’t had snow like this in 25 years. =)
1/160, f/2, ISO 100
1/100, f/5.6, ISO 100
1/320, f/1.8, ISO 400 ~ a self-portrait that I wanted to post-process completely outta my comfort zone! YES, it IS blown out intentionally. Yay or no? I’m indecisive, as per usual.
And that’ll be all for now…I wouldn’t want to bore you now, would I? =) My quotation (Mindy! Mindy! You’re doing good!) today is by my favourite author (one of them, at least) - Miss Louisa May Alcott.
"Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead." ~ Louisa May Alcott
oooooohhhh aaaaahhhh!!! I *LOVE* the first one! These are all fantastic…but that first one is rockin! I love all the COLOR!!! I really like the self portrait too…I don’t mind the blown look…I happen to like it!

I’m from ILP and I had to say that your first photo is lovely and you look very sophisticated in the last one. Congratulations on the snow day! Right now my town only has ice, which I’m not terribly excited about. Anyway, I love watching Ugly Betty… I rarely watch television except for that show!
