I recently put up all my photographs from our trip to NYC on my flickr account. Below are five of the photos I touched-up and/or modified out of twenty-six. Let me know what you think!

New York City!!!

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

It has been a few weeks since we returned from NYC but it was a really fun trip. After finals were done we headed to the twin cities and took off the next morning for New York. The balance of just finishing another semester with being somewhere on vacation is just awesome.

With summer winding down to a close and courses starting again in a matter of weeks, Jordan and I took our last run away date for the summer. I realized I didn’t have any footage of the Wisconsin Countryside so here are your cows, corn, barns, and forests.

Leaving France

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

It’s been a while since I arrived here and that means that the time to leave is rapidly approaching. Approaching so quickly, in face, that only 15 hours from now I will be on a play to Frankfurt and then back to the U.S.

As of right now I really don’t know what to think. Everyone here is kind of butting heads and trying to discover what this last day holds for them. I believe for each of us it is to little of what we want (seeing friends), and to much of what we don’t (administrative gabble). I can now count the number of things left to be moved out, and the number is 6 (3 lamps and 3 mattresses). The majority of the apartment has been bleach cleaned already, doors are shut, and maybe the shutters should be as well.

Soon enough I will be back, talking to my love face to face, able to gaze into her beautiful eyes, brushing her hair, and realizing how real she is. How amazing our future is, and how blessed I am to hold her. I know the sap there was rather thick, but she is free now so I’m going to talk for a minute before unplugging our modem. Then you know we’ll be gone.

God bless, and I will write once I’m home,

Doma in a puddle

The last I’ll post to my blog from my trip to Florence with my parents. It was a great trip and this is one of, if not my, favorite photos. The ripples all blurred away with the time exposure that was needed to take a well lit shot. Kind of a bummer. But I really like the perspective on the shot.

Baptistry and Doma on a rainy night

There is something refreshing and cleansing about a rain that happens. That brings about this refreshing breath. I love it, and as much as I enjoy staying dry, it was nice to be out this night taking pictures. It was a new kind of adventure that I have been missing as of late here in Toulouse.
