These things

Make me happy right now:

1. running into friends at the beach
2. meeting strangers and sharing a common interest
3. going on burrito runs with co-workers during lunch break
4. welcoming a new member to my extended family (my cousin's dog Ruby)
5. watching friends reruns with loved ones
6. finishing projects
7. meeting Kristi at Michael's for a quick walk through after work
8. eating fresh fruit
9. going for afternoon walks around the block
10. finding my balance

I wanted to share this photo of Dan that was taken by his mom, Zena, at his violin recital. He is finally finished with all 10 Suzuki books. I'm so proud of this graduate! I'll be back soon with LOTS of pictures when I've met a few more of my deadlines.

Love me some night photography...

I am straightening out my diploma error tomorrow for those of you who asked.

Photo lab is tomorrow night, so in preparation, Dan and I decided to spend some quality time loading film onto developing reels in his bathroom.

Taking self portraits each day is such a challenge. Some days I'm too tired and don't feel like it and other times I feel really inspired. On my third trip to Dan's house today I decided that I should take a night photo of myself sitting on his steps.

This is inspired a whole separate photo shoot when I asked Dan to watch the camera. He took some amazing photos of the moon coming up over Montara mountain.


From his backyard, he took this amazing shot:
