“Failure is in a sense the highway to success, as each discovery of what is false leads us to seek earnestly after what is true.”
- John Keats
The image above is a very happy accident — when I got the roll of film, I did not except the lovely color cast that appeared in this image. Shooting with old film is quite fun :)
Things have been very busy lately, and I have been shooting much more film lately, but I haven’t been able to develop anything until recently. I will hopefully be able to post more as time comes along, but for now, here are a few, along with a few things that have been inspiring me lately. :)
+ I want a woolly pocket! (They sell these at Pigment in North Park) :)
+ A little behind on the Easter posts, but I love these darling decorated eggs!
+ Another lovely Easter post, with beautiful polaroids and charming hand drawn menu :)
+ Love this post, especially the clock, TLR’s and last image :)
+ Quite possibly the cutest wedding photobooth ever! (With DIY tutorial link)
+ Loving all these items for jetsetting in style. Especially that suitcase. Want.
+ The cutest chalkboard fridge :)
+ I can watch this video over and over again (gotta love Elijah Wood & Shirley Manson)
+ This statement is fact.
And to leave you for today, a quote from a recent blogpost about journeys by the talented Jason Mraz:
…definitely don’t think you can swim faster than the current: don’t be a “try-hard.”
This is a term I heard used in the open-mic circuit for those who are trying so hard to make it they forget to enjoy it. The stress and the need for perfection is a distraction from the beauty, uncertainty, and finality of every moment. It’s never about the destination anyway. It’s about the brave lifestyle one leads in getting there.
Go, and lead a brave lifestyle. :)
(P.S. Speaking of brave, I still have to finish all my blogs about my roadtrip. Like I touched on before, this next portion is really quite difficult for me to put together because it is so personal to me. But I will try.)
Aw thanks for the link! And, I love happy accidents in photography. Have a wonderful day!
