At least it doesn't say "Your mom loves me."

Shivers.

Hey, thanks.
I'll let mum know ;)

That is really, really cool. I want to steal it to slap it on the front of my blog soooooooo bad...

andrea,

a while ago now i started to love the colour purple. i'm almost obsessed with it and with turquoise as well. they are such powerful colours. nevermind the lilac in the middle, be aware of the orange splash to the right...

andrea, you've got a very good eye for the silent everyday details, i love it.

awesome quote jenn, can you send me that one, too?

have a nice day with good light andrea!!

Do you use a filter on your digital camera? You're sky photos are absolutely beautiful!

i felt i should share this quote i found with you (for when you get stuck) - it was in a magazine, something a friend had written to a sculptor who kept worrying that her work wasn't grand enough and thus kept herself from growing and branching out...

"just stop thinking, worrying, looking over your shoulder, wondering, doubting, fearing, hurting, hoping for some easy way out, struggling, gasping, confusing, itching, scratching, mumbling, bumbling, grumbling, humbling, stumbling, rumbling, rambling, gambling, tumbling, scumbling, scrambling, hitching, hatchiiing, bitching, moaning, groaning, honing, boning...searching, perching, besmirching, grinding grinding grinding away at yourself. stop it and just DO...tru and tickle something inside you, your "weird humor." you belong in the most secret part of you. don't worry about cool, make your own uncool...if you fear, make it work for you -- draw and paint your fear and anxiety. and stop worrying about big, deep things such as "to decide on a purpose and way of life..." you must practice being stupid, dumb, unthinking, empty. then you will be able to DO! i have much confidence in you and even though you are tormenting yourself, the work you do is very good. try and do some BAD work. the worst you can think of and see what happens but mainly relax and let everything go to hell."

reminds me of my being adopted (virtually) by all my loved ones' moms.

hehe. what a "nice" thing to say? strange. I dig it though, you have a lot of wonderful things to shoot in your part of the world. Man, I miss California.

P.S.
You were not too late in writing me back and you helped me make a decision between the two cameras. I'll fill you in later!
