a few insights {photoaday}

imperfect: it’s said that you’re your own worst critic and I am no different. I’m learning to accept my flaws – inside & out – and put them in the proper perspective. physical imperfections are so easy to focus on and pick apart but they are what make us unique. accepting my imperfections and not let them affect my confidence has always been a struggle but growing in this area more and more. and my internal imperfections… selfishness, pride, jealousy, really too many others to name… those are the things that make me so very thankful for grace. so this is me… absolutely positively imperfect but embracing it with each passing day.

a fave photo you’ve ever taken: this was just a quick snapshot of my niece. she was so done with my camera in her face but she still wanted to ham it up.
it’s so Eva… ♥

where you slept: this is my bed. it’s all mine and yes, i use 4 pillows.

2012: 014-016/365 {are you sure this isn’t pinesol?}

An impromptu game night and a glass of Greek wine. It tasted like pinesol – I’m not even exaggerating. But we drank it anyway and survived. Barely.

I think part of the reason I love photography is that it puts me behind the lens instead of in front of it. This year I’m going to step out of my comfort zone at least once a month for a selfy. It’s awkward, uncomfortable and makes me cringe but I’m really trying to be open to new experiences so here goes… (and I purposely didn’t take photos of anything else today so I would be forced to use one of me. bleh)

As I was pulling out of the neighborhood this morning, I could see an amazingly pink and purple sky through the trees. Before getting on the highway, I got my camera all set so I could take a snapshot out the window. I knew of a couple of open areas along the drive but in the 5 minutes it took to get there, the striking colors had all but disappeared. I was bummed but at least the clouds were still interesting. And there’s the faintest hint of pink here & there.
