Workshop

So this amazing photographer, http://www.nicholev.com/, has what appear to be amazing workshops. I was actually drooling over one last week that will be in my neck of the woods next year. I even thought, there's got to be someway I can justify the cost. And maybe I can. And today I come across her blog and she's giving a workshop away. Universe, please oh, please, I would so love to win this. So in an effort to win ... I'm posting here and there and linking and commenting to up my entries and chances. And now I leave it to the hands of the Universe.

Absent!



















































































































































Damn, I've missed my little blog. Being absent sucks. Being absent from my blog sucks even more because this is supposed to be a way I can stay present day to day.

But life or actually work took over the last month and half. I've had more photo shoots than I know what to do with. All of them awesome but all of them on the weekends and then weeknights spent processing.

My "real" job (as in the job that pays the bills), graphic designer for a non-profit, has been insanely busy.

I was in a photography class for a few weeks. That was fun and I learned some great stuff. But I do have to say that learning some technical things seems to have messed up my intuitive mojo for taking photos.

And freelance graphic design projects came back around. But they're fun freelance ... logos! I LOVE doing logos.

Whew!

When I first started this blog, I posted a photo every day for a year. And the most awesome thing about that was spending New Year's Eve with Shawn going back through that year. So once again, it's time to get back on track. I miss this space, I miss taking photos for fun to post here, I miss being present with my life.

These photos were from a little jaunt around Old Town Alexandria about a month ago.
