a photo journey

~ Make sure to look through October for pictures from my trip to Italy. This whole working thing is really throwing off my regular-posting groove!

Room with a View


One of the things I can't help myself from doing is taking pictures of my eyes while I'm flying from place to place. I think it's a combination of boredom and how excited I am with the idea of taking pictures of places and things I have never seen before.

On some levels, I'm not certain why I like this particular picture so much. I can see the red mark on my nose from where my glasses usually sit, the eyebrows that I should have plucked before going on vacation, the dark circles under my eyes. Even still, I think it's a pretty interesting shot. I love the colour of my eyes and how the light coming in the window is reflected in them. Really, it just seems like the me I always see when I look in the mirror.
