Welcome Friday!

We used our last 2012 Christmas stamp today. Thought you would want to know.

The weekend is coming. As if you didn’t already know. But I’m kind of excited about the weekend. I’ve been looking forward to this weekend ever since we arrived into our new neighborhood. More on that later…

The sun is shining and the sky is blue – In my little corner of the world

And because the sun is shining, I’m allowing every little beautiful and lovely ray in.

I shot a boat load of images this morning, just because.

The image below is a baby sago palm tree that started from the larger sago in the backyard. It wasn’t until I was up close to the baby branch, that I noticed a couple of fringes all scrolled up. And I thought it was worthy to take note.

I’m learning there are loads of images to be captured, just outside our backdoor.

One of the most important things I’ve learned, is to take each step at a snail’s pace.

Or better yet, come to a screeching halt.

And really open my eyes to the world around me.

Then is when I’m amazed at the little things I see.

I pretty much devoted the morning to photography. I’m trying to build on what I’ve learned the last two semesters. And apply all the steps I learned in Photoshop such that I’m not only ready to take the next class but that I continue to grow as a student, even when I’m not in class.

The afternoon has arrived in Sunny Southern California.

And I think it’s time to put the photography away for the day and rustle up some lunch.

And get cracking on the ironing.

And do a little more beautifying in the house such that it’s nice and clean for the weekend.

Later Friends!
