Finding color in black and white

One day I was having one of those "gray" days. It's similar to a blue day, but for me it's a gray. During those days I have a hard time seeing the beauty a colorful world has. On days like this I shoot in black and white 35 mm film just so I can find the color again...

Simon, the Superpower Spooning Snuggle Pup

Hey all!

Everyone, meet Simon.

What's a photo blog without posting up pics of Becca's infamous spooning dog Simon? He's the greatest when it comes to cuddling and just lying around making you feel verrrrrry sleeeepyyyyy. Just follow the pictures and see....

Simon loves to bury himself under the covers sometimes...

He also likes to mirror people ;)

This is Simon's bed. He rarely sleeps on it ;)

pbbbfffffttttt........

Another year has come and gone. I have learned a lot about myself and the people around me this year. 2011, I am truly sad to see you go, but I am looking forward to something new :) In another hour it'll be a brand new year. Here's looking at you, 2012!
