photography: the art and science of creating photographic images

Why do you not take pictures anymore? I do. I still do. Every single day for the past 800 days or so. It's just that people expect you to take beautiful pictures all the time or edit it in a particular way, and I just couldn't keep up with their expectations. It wasn't fun that way. I stopped uploading pictures on Flickr on a daily basis and resorted to my private picture diary blog. Pictures collected for the past 800 days from so many places and happenings in my life. Sometimes when I'm sad, I just look at each entry and think of the great things photography has brought to my life. Sorry for being oh so sentimental ;)

wanderlustin'

So I'm headed back to San Francisco (that's three trips to SF in three months!) next week. Then on Friday, we're flying to Puerto Rico, a 10-hour flight. I AM SO EXCITED. Haven't been out of California since December last year! YAY!

baker beach

This was the first time we've actually been to Baker Beach. The place gave us a 'new' view of the Golden Gate Bridge. STILL. NOT. SICK. OF. THE. BRIDGE.  In fact, I will be back in September before the fall quarter begins.

childhood, i miss you


i like this picture. it’s not pretty, i know… but something about this picture reminds me about things from the past. happy things. sad things. i don’t really know. i wish i can find the words to describe what i’m feeling right now. lonely. alone. empty. perhaps alone. or maybe still in denial that i’m no longer a teenager… because being young is temporary. or maybe because i want to go somewhere else but can’t at the moment. these are emotions i don’t know how to describe… 
it’s hard when you’re the youngest in the family and your older siblings are getting ready to settle down… you know that feeling. and being the baby of the family, i’m still in school and unsure about what the future holds. it’s hard living alone for three months. it’s hard wanting something so badly. 
i wish i were a writer… because i have no clue why the heck i’m feeling like this right now. and because my writing sucks.

negative space is beautiful

Negative space: space around and between the subject(s) of an image. 
Negative space is oh so beautiful, in my opinion.
