So, I was going through some old stuff. I've decided to sell my old Canon, since I have my professional now and really don't even bother touching the digital. But last night I found my 8 year old Polaroid camera, I got it when I was 9. I turned it on, it still works and everything, I've kept it in the box and in a safe place for the longest time, I just forgot about it. It's hard to find the film for it these days. Or, at least, cheap film. But I'm determined. I absolutely love Polaroid pictures.

so I still have some photos I didn't upload from my most recent shoot. Basically, a storm ripped up the roof of my house and it's finally fixed and there's no flooding. I might be gone again for a while though, we're moving. Not sure when yet, probably before or during the summer, but I'm excited. I love clean slates.

I'm trying to only take photos when inspired, because I've come to find that's my best work. But I know I won't be able to expand into different categories of photography that way, because nature (and things I can use macro with for a lot of detail) seems to be my main interest, but that's okay. Anywho, the story behind my latest photos (the carnations) is that I was given them, but they were dying, so I brought them back to life. :] And I took the opportunity up to get some photography out of it. I'm really happy with my camera, it's wonderful. A lot of people have it, I've noticed, and I know exactly why. My friend came to me asking if
