I haven't really been out and about taking photos lately. I'm essentially learning as I go and I still have a great deal to learn. I showed my sister these photos and she was surprised when I told her they were taken in the backyard. It's interesting how photography can challenge your perception and allow you to see things from a different perspective.

These days I wonder if I'll wake up at all in the morning on time, if I'll get a high enough GPA, or if I'll even have the time to eat lunch at all...
