fading light (02)



tree


grass


bark


barely visible details in low light really fascinate me.

A walk in prospect park this afternoon.
I love the unsaturated colours after sunset
when it's getting dark on earth
but the sky is still light.

I finally got my pictures from the dec 19 blizzard developed.
the next day was perfectly sunny, the amount of snow was amazing,
and prospect park had turned into a giant white surface
with everyone out and having fun.

I think I'd like another blizzard soon.
preferably on a weekend, please?

resolutions + recommendations



snow


well, it's maybe a bit late already, but I've made a few resolutions for 2010, too:

1 try harder at eating my five a day
2 read more books
3 catch up on good movies
4 sew more
5 look at all the nice books I already own
6 keep up with my 5 year diary
7 travel and generally get out of the city more

we started out on #7 this weekend by going to boston. it was great, i'll show you some pictures soon.

also, regarding #2 and 3, I made lists on the side bar where I'll be putting
all the books/films I have so far read/ watched this year, just as a way of keeping track.

what are your favorite books and movies?
I'd love to hear your recommendations.

sunrise

these were taken within 20 minutes on the morning of dec 21st, after the longest night of the year.
we went running and waited a few minutes for sunrise on the hill in prospect park.
it's the morning light that so far has made us face the cold every other day
and I really hope we'll stick to it through the next two cold months.
