Photo of one of my contact lens cases. One of the 1st pictures I took with my DSLR.

Fun colors

What cute decor!  This would be a fun place to take some photos.

This invokes very strong emotions for me.  Someday, I hope to see this in person.

Lomo 2

Wow! I found a really cool collection of lomography online...

Camera

Hooray! I received my IRS tax refund via direct deposit!

I think I might go for the Canon XSi now instead of the T1i. I don't think I need THAT much of a crazy DSLR camera.

hmm... I need to do some more research

Old Photography

I took this photo at around 8 a.m. from our campsite back in April 2008 at Casitas Lake.

Zen.

Nature is a no-brainer for beautiful shots.

Obsession

Current obsession: lomography

This is some DIGITAL manipulation to produce lomographic effects I did with Photoshop CS3 on photos I took of some of my mom's orchids at my parent's house.

I, however, would like to get an actual analogue lomography camera eventually. I am eyeing the Holga or Diana sold at places like UO. I WANT!

Ok, time for bed! Good night!

Bang! bang!

Here I am! This was my first time handling the Beretta PX4 Storm, so I look kind of awkward pushing in the clip and cocking the gun the 1st time around. I get more comfortable though. :)

Goals: SHOOT!

Good morning!

With all the web browsing I've been doing, it's really re-sparked my interest in photography and art.  I think when I get my tax refund or car accident settlement check, I might buy a new camera... Canon T1i or T2i... not sure yet...

or... a new gun... Beretta 84FS Cheetah in Nickel. Gorgeous.

I think I get my good aim from my dad...he's an incredibly accurate shooter! I don't really like guns (yes, I know--then why by one?), but I seem to have a talent for it... and I like to collect tools and gadgets that I have a talent for. Yes, weird.

My target after my 1st time shooting a .40, my 2nd time at the gun range:

Will post video in another post.

What was awesome was that the Range Master came by to give me some (free!) tips to help me improve my shooting, complimented my shooting, and told my boyfriend to be careful. hahaha
