...It Lasts Longer

My days at work are normally filled with infrequent "on-task" things to do. Instead of doing Excel testing or system mock-ups, I prefer to blogroll.
Being 25 years old and still having a student job kind of stings a bit at times, but "Hey!, It's getting me through grad school."

I've got a pretty steady list of amazing blogs I follow and always seem to find more just by clicking an intriguing link.
Yesterday was no exception.

It always happens that I find a never ending list of things to look at just before it's time to head home. So this morning I got a lovely surprise/reminder when I turned on my computer. I saved a couple of sites that I found extraordinary.
One in particular stood out.

It's called Dear Photograph. It's part Post Secret with a dash of grandma's photo album. People can submit pictures of them holding old photos taken in the same spot. I clearly love the idea of having having a new updated photo of an old cherished memory, as per my last blog entry.

Sound great? I think so too.

New Camera

Took a walk today at one of my favorite spots, McKinley Park duck pond. I brought along a friend, my new camera (and Brian). My uncle surprised me with a Canon Rebel T2i for graduation and I haven't been able to play with it yet.
I am not a bird lover but have been trying to warm up to the idea that these massive geese can peck my flesh off at the drop of a hat. The best way I have found to do this is by feeding them. We save our scrap bread and bring it. Normally we are SURROUNDED by birds of all kinds and the sweetest squirrels you've ever met, but unfortunately the day I bring my camera a man had just emptied a Costco sized bag of feed on the ground. Still got some good shots and hopefully will able to play around now that Spring is approaching.
