anyone can 'take photos' and everyone has a camera.
everybody is a photographer.
i don't want to claim to be something that i can't live up to,
so i'm not going to call myself a photographer.
instead, i am going to blog about my experience
(including my lack of)
in photography
and of course post some photos.

everybody is a photographer

why am i starting a new blog when i am already really bad at keeping up with my food blog?
what a brilliant question! if only i had a brilliant answer. so sad. really i just want a place to blog/post photos about non-food things. photos that i feel too ashamed to post on my flickr site, or photos that need to be seen together, with some sort of description. because really... i'm not a 'photographer' so to speak. i'm amateur at best, and though i do love beautiful photos, i feel that anyone these days can claim to be a photographer. and honestly it kind of annoys me when i see terrible photos being marketed as professional. this is why i claim no such thing. that way, i can post terrible photos and get away with it. :) i love the way i think.

so here is an old photo to start my blog:


this is eileen. eileen is a beautiful lady with a beautiful spirit and she likes to take photos. especially with the oktomat camera. she dresses super cute and she is also conveniently an artist (illustrator/graphic designer). check out her confessions of a designer. oh yeah, and she loves alice in wonderland.
