Summer 8

One of my favorite places to go is the Catskills, its where I feel happiest and most at home.

Summer 7

I have been spending my summer working seven days a week (I'm kind of a jane of all trades doing housesitting, babysitting, and working at the Jewish Community Center). But I have still been trying to keep up on the photography. Anyway, this is a post about bugs!

Summer 6

Looking over all the photos I have taken this summer I am discovering that I have some strange obsession with clouds. I have also learned that taking a photo while driving over the George Washington Bridge (of doom) is probably not a good idea.

Summer 5

So these are my two best friends:

Julia and I drove up to Memphis, NY to visit Steve Smith. I'm really starting to get the hang of using the DSLR, I got quite a few good shots that I'm happy with. 

Summer 4

The past few nights there have been some insanely intense thunder storms. (too many adjectives?) I stood outside with my camera trying to press the shutter when the lightning struck. Unfortunately it was way too cloudy to get a picture of the lightning strike but how the clouds were illuminated was amazing. I also took a video of the thunder and lightning but there is a lot of background noise due to the amount of wind. Got to love summer storms. 

Summer 3

So I went to MOCCA festival over the weekend, I originally went to stalk out Danielle Corsetto of Girls With Slingshots but I completely  missed her table even though I went through the entire festival three times searching for it. I didn't really buy anything because I have no money, my apartment is tiny, and I currently have over 1,000 books on my shelf already (this is not an exaggeration). I did however run into ZAK SMITH!!!! He was browsing one of the booths and I had to do a double (and triple) take because he was the last person I would have ever thought to be there (seeing as wikipedia says he lives in California). So I basically had a heart attack, walked up to him and said hello, probably sounded like a complete idiot because every intelligent thing I could have said to him left my mind as soon as he started talking. But basically, I met my idol and he was really cool. Still on a cloud!
