Mayan Cats and Chandeliers 
September 9, 2011
My first adventure with Stella the Canon Rebel! Most of these pictures were taken while I was anxiously preparing my boyfriend Adan for his trip to Shanghai. I don't have as much experience with photography as I'd like to have, but I'm eager to learn more and I'm enjoying the process. Generally I'm used to working with blown glass or graphite and charcoal, and i find that when you're really into what you're creating you feel this yoga-ish, in-tune-with-nature sense of peace that settles over you like a comfortable sweater. I discovered that feeling in photography when I adjusted my aperture for what felt like the billionth time and clicked into the perfect setting to capture that glass chandelier...that familiar "here's looking at you, kid" creativity had found me again.
