Picture Blitz: Part 2

More candy!! Yippee....
Okay, I thought I had already posted this picture. I probably have. Great.
More of last year's California trip...
More sunsets? How unpredictable. Yup, that's right. I'm unpredictable in my predictability... or something.
Okay, so you may have noticed that I am not my usual, happy self. I'm a teenage girl, so I don't see why I should be happy. That and my mom's suffering at work. She's not happy, even though she puts on a brave face, and because of that, it makes me unhappy. I can put on a brave face at school, but my writing changes when my mood changes, and I can't fake it.
At the moment, I'm listening to "Time Bomb" by All Time Low. I know, it's not exactly the kind of music a christian girl usually listens to, but it's good music, and I like that style of music anyways. Pop-Rock, Emo, blah blah blah. Besides, I haven't really found any christian music like that by chance. I find the music I like by chance, but I need to look for more songs and expand my horizons. Step out of my comfort zone, even if for just a little bit.
Now I'm listening to "Savior" by Rise Against. I actually just saw a "Savior, Female Version" on youtube. Intriguing.
Okay, I just wasted five seconds I'm never getting back. They had only changed the pitch on the original song "to make it easier for females to sing". I'll take the original lyrics any day. They ruined a good song. Now I'm listening to "Headphones On" by Miranda Cosgrove. That's actually the song that made me want to learn how to play the guitar.
I just provided free advertising for three songs. Three awesome songs. Oh well. I hope you enjoyed having year-old, guilt riddled candy thrown at your eyes. Goodbye!

Picture Blitz: Part 1

Guilt Riddled Cavities!
Yeah, okay. I know I said I will only write one blog post per month. Well I have this procrastination/ lazy butt head syndrome. Because I have a whole bunch of pictures on my computer, I feel like I don't need to take anymore until I run out, which means I'm posting really old pictures. That can be compared to handing out year old candy. Delicious, but it riddles me with guilt. Meh. So now, I am going to barrage you with my ancient, horrible quality pictures for only two more posts, and then I will make myself take at least six new pictures each month. Let the delicious, guilt ridding candy handout begin!

Ah, the bear. If you look really closely at the glass separating me from certain death, you'll see something teal blue. That's my "camera". Geez. Looking at the photo really makes me realize how old this picture is. This is like two year old candy, gosh darn it. Lesson of the day kids. Never procrastinate.

If you really know your landmarks, then you'll know what mountain this is. It isn't the best picture of said mountain, but it's hard to take pictures while moving.
My lousy camera can never do my home justice, but it sure tries its best.
I guarantee you. I do not go out into the wilderness of my backyard in the middle of the night to take pictures. I do not fancy being eaten by bears or coyotes, but my camera has a weird habit of either making really dark pictures, or really light pictures. Maybe 'tis time to invest in a different one...


Now remember. This is only the beginning. You have been warned.

Wait, it's February already?


Okay, so I've been putting off this blog post for quite a while now. I IZ LAZY!!! YAY! Anyways, I have some pictures. More pictures. Folders full of pictures... ALL FOR YOU!!! So, here are some pictures of... stuff, nature stuff. :D I took the pictures above in early November, before the heavy snow came in. Because I live five miles out of town, we get more snow, but it's usually a lot less... noticeable then this.

Maybe you've noticed by now that I like to take pictures of the same thing? Maybe that's because there is very little varying between the "victims" of my pictures. But I do promise when I go on the Alaskan cruise this summer, I will bring back some great pictures! Oh, and I almost forgot. Yesterday, this really weird fog rolled into town. It was huge, and by huge I meant it stretched probably to Viola and all the way out to that circled area in the last picture. I'm guessing about fifteen to twenty miles wide. As we were driving past it on the other side of the ridge, it look like an enormous, fluffy dragon swooping over the ridge. I wish I had had my camera :(

Schedule

Okay, so I have figured out that, for this to work with my current life schedule, it's got to be a once a month update. Now, it's time to compare snow from November, to December and now to January. In November, we got a little bit of snow (a little bit for where I live. We usually get... about a foot when it's all said and done.) My mom and dad were debating whether or not it was a foot, or sixteen inches. The weather forecast said we would get sixteen inches between Monday and Wednesday, this past week. We now have sixteen inches of snow on Friday, and since then, because the roads out where I live get bad in the winter, we've had three days of nearly continuous snow-fall and three snow days. YES!

Now onto the comparison photos. One of them was taken while I was writing up this blog post.This is November:

Okay, not too bad, right? Now onto December:
 For us, that looks like early spring. Now here we have January:
 What? Okay, and just so you think "Okay, it's really not that deep out there. It just looks like it." The little black dot in front of the forked tree. That's a chair. It's a small chair, but it's still a chair. Here's a comparison picture.
 That's what our yard usually looks like. Minus the fact that it's black and white. With some blue. I can't think of much else to say. Good Bye!

The Beauty of God's World

I have been very busy with school, so I pulled up some older pictures, and added them to some I took last night. Just looking at the land I have been blessed to live on shows me that it is impossible for there not to be a God, to create such complicated, yet simple, beauty.
I find it amazing that I just "happened" to be going outside to fill up the dogs' water bowl at just precisely the right time to see the sunrise reflecting off of the icicles on the roof.
Or that I just "happened" to look out the window at precisely the right time to see this gorgeous sunset yesterday.
On an unrelated note, here is a picture I took at least a year ago of our baby kitten, who we recently figured out is Neurotic, so she gets to be on Kitty Prozac. Isn't she cute? ^__^

Hello all you peoples out there!

Here's a picture!!!          
As you might have guessed by the name, this is a photography blog. I take all of these pictures myself, edit them (like the one above) or leave them the way they are (like the one below), and post them here, for your enjoyment! I might even post videos here (once I get a camera that hasn't been barfed on by cats, or dropped multiple times...).

There's a picture!
And a lovely, snowy picture!
Sunset picture...
