Barnacles

I sliced my foot on barnacles sunday night.  The lesson I learned was to not walk into the water at low tide, when you are drunk.  It was also dark out and I just did not see the giant rock that was covered in barnacles.  It hurts.  And it's difficult to walk.  My friends laughed at me and said I looked like a 70 year old woman.  I feel broken.  Although, it seems to be healing quickly, because I was able to pretty much walk normal, through the pain.

new home

My roommate is finally living in the apartment with me.  She had been traveling all summer.  I waited for her to get back to start decorating and what not...And I really love our living room.  It has a lot of windows, so natural light can come through, and it keeps it very airy.  The sheer curtains are wonderful too.  So when I had a few moments alone in the house, I took a few shots.

Lately, I've felt extremely more connected to my spirit.  I'm learning more about my spiritual path, and the earth's.  Right now it is the main thoughts in my mind and I think it is coming across in my art a lot.
I stopped by this nature park, The Great Swamp, in Morris County, New Jersey.  I felt really inspired to take self-portraits, there is something very therapeutic about going out into the nature, all alone.  It was very beautiful there, I loved the patches of light that came through the canopy of tress, yet I felt I was having trouble showing it in my photos.  I noticed though, that all my poses I felt like doing came across as spiritual or divine in some way.  I kept wanting to look up, to the sky, and the sun...I wanted to do yoga poses, yet at the same time that was not the direction I wanted to go in.. But maybe because I was in such a beautiful and very earthly place, that was just the connection and energy that I was receiving.

Then...I saw a raccoon, and I hear it's bad to see them in the day time.  But he was so cute, and didn't look like he had rabies?

Mirrors

I went through a lot of my older photographs, and had a lot of fun making them look very trippy and interesting to look at.  I love how the black and white versions can really leave it all to your imagination.  Some may even alter you're perspective.
