details of different

Beautifully different. Think about what makes you different and what you do that lights people up. Reflect on all the things that make you different – you’ll find they’re what make you beautiful.

I’m a collector of intriguing things.

I wear big bass-thumping headphones when I walk just about anywhere.

I always have time to stop and pet a puppy.

My socks never have to match.

Quoting Anchorman is a natural addition to the conversation.

I believe that dark chocolate can and should be provided.

Half-polished nails make me a rock star.

I plan on never having a resume, or a dress suit, or a cubicle.

I’m 21 and in love with my life.

I’m 21 and in love with a guy who lives 3,000 miles away in England. AND I’M GOING in 18 days to spend January there with him.

I will take five extra minutes for that photo-op. Believe me, I can work a lot of magic in five minutes.

I find it perfectly acceptable to dine alone, in a fancy shmancy place, with a camera as my date.

Espresso is meant to be sipped on its own.

I prefer rolls of film to digital memory cards.

I LIVE for flash mobs.

I share my birthday with Salvador Dali, which I think explains a lot of things.

I’ve got a giant sunflower painted on my closet doors.

I’ve seen somewhere over 270 species of North American birds. My England bird list is 90.

I’m half a year away from a degree in Geography, and whenever someone asks me “what are you gonna do with that?” I say TRAVEL. And, of course, take photos.

My favorite writer is Haruki Murakami. I’ve read 6 of his novels, and a few of those twice. Once that degree gets out of the way, I’ll complete his novels, which means I’ve got 6 to go.

My camera collection is currently at 13 beautiful machines: Nikon D40, Canon Powershot, Nikon FM10, Yashica FX-3, Yashica FX-3 Super, Polaroid SX-70, Polaroid SX-70 modded, Polaroid 680, Fujifilm Instax 200, Rolleiflex 6006, Voigtlander Folder, Pentax PZ1P, and my newest: the Afga B2 Commander.

If you’re into Style Statements: mine’s Creative Sensual.

I’m always scanning my periphery for beautiful light.

    I LOVE flash mobs. This post gives me a good sense of how you identify yourself and I quite like it.

    England huh? If you’re swinging by London, then I’d love to take you and your cameras out for the day :)

      If it’s in the cards, I would love to! Most of my visit will be spent in Norfolk, but I do have to get back to Heathrow at some later on in January.
