The Better Ones & An Ending

As it has been nearly forever and a day since I have last visited here with intention to post, I thought I should finish the year out responsibly. Thankfully, a few rolls of recently developed film from my summer pet project {actual film photography via my vintage/refurbished minolta XG 1 camera}, I have a bit more meat this time than the typical literary blurb and corresponding image. 

Be gently dear reader...I am still as of yet a freshling to this film venture...

 

Here are the better of my first fruits:

'Til next year, friends...❤ 

To be Interested in the Changing Seasons...

Farewell to this drowsy, damp, and hazy winter break.

Please forgive my cliche, badly focused photo that attempts to express my deep 

sentimental feelings on the matter.

The Stuff of Childhood || Thumbelina

Over the holiday break, while spending time with loved ones, I had a chance to relive my young childhood by re-watching the animated tale of Thumbelina. 

And yes, I did spend the whole rest of the day sneaking up and singing "Let Me Be Your Wings" in many a family member's ear.

I challenge anyone to watch said movie with out doing the same at least once. 

Here are a few stills I caught just for funnzies.
Enjoy the artsy, grainy, kitchy mess:

Happy post-Thanksgiving Holiday/Black Friday shopping!

Went on Holiday to California...

...and all I came back with is this stupid picture of a Lion doorknob...

{he looks...cowardly}

Had a lovely time visiting long lost/loved family.

It was a sweet respite before the onset of classes.

Only three days left.

Bring.

It.

My New Favorite Thing || PBS' Idea Channel

Amidst the trash that clogs up YouTube, there is a beckon of light:
PBS' Idea Channel.

I've loved it from the first; enjoying it's playful and yet philosophical discussions on matters of art, music, and video games and this current culture's relation to them.
Fun stuff.
Here's a sampling below, in which a comment I made may or may not have been referred to at the end. ;}
