sarachmet

it's my week off from work and so i have all this fabulous free time on my hands and a quiet house while everyone's away at work and ruby is snoozing in a pool of sunlight. i thought i'd blog about one of my favorite photographers who goes by the name sarachmet and is based in the uk.


the photographs are ghostly, vivid, timeless... i am reminded of the works of william waterhouse and of victorian photography, which was so interested in spiritualism.






for more examples of sarachmet's work, please visit the website for sarachmet photography & illustration.

a spring walk in ottawa



it's been about a year since i walked in the sunshine around ottawa, camera in hand and the smell of blossoms in the air. i thought i'd share the images in celebration of spring :)

the littlest birds sing the prettiest songs


Well I feel like an old hobo, I'm sad lonesome and blue
I was fair as the summer day now the summer days are through
You pass through places and places pass through you
But you carry 'em with you on the souls of your travellin' shoes
