Passion of Mine

Looking over the pictures I took Sunday. I realised how beautiful the Australian Forest is and how lucky I am to be so close to it. It is almost winter and there is moss and wet ground and the forest. It's amazing. It was cold but it didn't worry me because I was doing what I love. I know now that photography is my true passion. Whether I pursue it as a career or not I know it will always be apart of my life and me. I use to question my photography I didn't know if it was me or not. But it is. The images I take are me. Nobody can put there camera the way I do, only I can. It's only me. Argh I know I love photography.

I was lucky to be able to go out with a great photographer to go into the forest and learn. Hopefully I'll be able to more often, in newer places. A local photographer who works for the local paper called me and said that I'll be able to do some work experience with him early July.

Also I'll have work experience in a couple of weeks and a gym! I know this isn't you know my usual type of work but I want to try something different.

Blogging it Cause...

I started out this blog I Feb because I wanted a place to say my thoughts out loud and be able to hear I reply with hopefully some advice and praise. Which gladly I have been able to get in this past month. You can't believe the joy and happiness I feel when I recieve a comment, my day will forever go on as happy. I love comments that are questioning and really make me think.
I think the comments have helped me because it makes me realise who I am and also makes me say how my words are seen as.

My blog helps me relax becuase I'm able to say what I want and how I feel. How I feel yes I repeated it again and put it in bold because I feel it is an important part of my blog. When I say how I feel I'm letting you into my life. When I let you into to mylife I hope you stay there to witness it and become apart of it. I'm a people person well that's what it says on my resume and I want to be around people even if it's through one comment or hopefully more.

I wouldn't like to call my blog my passion because it is and I don't want to lie. But it is now apart of who I am and how I live my life. I try to write in my blog every day not because I'm obessed but because I want to and because it my way of dealing with the things that are happening in my life even if they aren't that great. I want to be able to shout well type in capital letters and bold to tell people that I'm angry or happy or really proud for myself. Here right now sitting in bed covered in blankets is where I can be truly truthful, truly be me and only me. 

Also sorry if some days I don't write I usually have a good reason.

My motivation: I thank you to become apart of my world and journey through life.

To any new comers who want to help motivate me through life and watch me live, here are some tips/steps:

-I would probably advice you to read all my posts which may take a while bit it will help you get to know me better
-Always always always leave me comments when you have something to say even if its only short
-I'm not a very loudly out-spoken person but I do add some of my louder opinions in here and there so please don't be offened, just ask why I think that way (through a comment) I'll always listen a be polit
-I'm a very bad speller and I know I don't read over my posts as well as I should. Sorry about my mistakes but I'm woking on it
-Add me to your followers list whether you liked the blog or not and say I'm on a trial for a month to yourself :) If you like me keep me and follow me but if you don't like me no hurt feelings
-By the way I don't like to call my followers; followers so I call you my motivation instead
-Leave me comments :)

Butterflys That Brought Me To My Passion

Ever since i was little i loved being in front of the camera. I was very much a poser. But as i grew older i loved to take the beautiful shots instead. And still sometimes be in it of course. I said to myself that i had to make the choice to be in front of the camera or behind it. My textlie teacher once said i could be a model if i was tall and had no boobs. Or i could take the shots and learn the tricks and the trades of a great art. I chose to take the pictures instead.

What really got me first interested in photography was when i was on year 8 camp i think and we went to the Melbourne Zoo. I took some great pictures of some butterflys which still look amazing to me today. I entered some of the shots into my local festival and won junior photography of the year. I know it wasn't much seen as i live in such a small town but it felt like such a complete honour.

So i keep going on with my photos and started taking lots of marco and landscape pictures. They were turning out well and everybody could see it so for my birthday i got a SLR nikon D80. I fell in love.

I am also in love with taking sunset pictures. I love the colours the the harsh light at the end of the day.

Since then i haven't been able to stop taking pictures. I now take portraits and family ones too. Which has been a huge step for me. I don't know if this will be my career but i sure hope to continue this in the future. I will post some of my pictures up soon.
