Me and My Kitty

It's been beautiful outside these past few weeks. Summer has finally hit, and the sunshine is wonderful. :)

My brother and I were outside, taking pictures for my post on my main blog Vividry, and surprisingly, there were a number of good ones. I don't take any credit for these pictures - all credit goes to him. (I did put my watermark on them, just so no one will steal them.) He is a surprisingly good photographer, and a wonderful brother. :) So here the pictures are, for your enjoyment!

All credit for these images goes to my brother, "Eagle", and were taken by him with his camera.

Interesting angle on this one... but I think I like it. :)

Isn't my brother creative?

Siblings really are a gift from the Lord, and I am so glad I have such a sweet and creative brother. Doesn't he take wonderful pictures?

Peonies

Early in June, the peonies always bloom. I love these gorgeous flowers with their massive heads of pink beauty. Unfortunately, I was only able to snatch a few pictures of them before a heavy thunderstorm tore them to shreds. :( But here they are, for your enjoyment:

These next three were taken just after the thunderstorm:

There's still one small flower left!

I love how the leaf is in focus and the flower isn't. That was actually completely accidental.

Let me leave you with one last picture of beauty in its perfection:

A Photographer without a Camera

Yes, sadly enough, I am currently a photographer without a camera.

My camera's screen broke, and though it still will turn on and "take" pictures, they're all fuzzy and blurry (and of course, I couldn't see through the screen to know if I was taking a good one or not). And I'm pretty sure it would cost just as much to fix the screen as it would to buy a new camera.

*Tear*

I took a walk today, and it was so hard to stare at everything and think, "That would be such a good picture!" but not be able to do anything about it. I got a dozen red roses for my piano recital the other day... and I'm unable to take a picture of a single one of them. There's beauty all around me, and I'm unable to capture any of it!

I'll just have to get a new camera - and get it soon!

I still do have some pictures that I've taken, so I will be posting a few more posts with pictures from that other camera. So don't despair! :D

Just Like a Writer

I've been writing a lot recently, and one day when I had writer's block I took out my camera and started taking pictures of my work. And I was actually pretty pleased with the results!

These pictures are of my allegory. Can you figure out what it's about?

My favorite means of writing: paper and pencil.

My faithful hands that work so diligently without complaining (too much).

I kind of like this one in sepia. What do you think?
