I'm not really one for selfies (except for the occasional Snapchat that I sent to a select few), nor do I take pictures of myself while on vacation like, "Oh, here I am in front of this building." And, instead of taking pictures of the famous sites, sometimes I just find what I think is pretty and snap that. This definitely was the case on my trip to England (very spur-of-the-moment trip), and you probably couldn't tell where I was from the pictures I took. This time around, there a lot of "screensaver" worthy shots. All unfiltered.
First off -- to the handful of you who actually read this blog -- my apologies for the temporary hiatus. Some personal family-related problems have stolen my attention these past few months. But, I'm back now, and I'd like to take things back to February when we in New York were in the height of the Winter snowstorm. It was quite possibly the longest winter I have ever had to endure. For most, it was a nuisance - having to shovel and salt the sidewalks, only to do it all over again in a few hours. For me, it was a nightmare... to shoot. So. Much. White. But, when you look past all the hardships and obstacles, you can find something so pure and simple in the world around you. "In photography there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more than reality." - Alfred Stieglitz
