Day 2


I've been working on and off all day on a profile for this thing. At one point I started to write I'm a nature lover. In fact, I did write it and left it there all day. Later I decided to erase it. I'm no where near one of those save the planet, backpack across Italy types. I can appreciate nature. In fact, I love camping. It's a very grounding experience for me, but I really am a city girl. I like hiking. My idea of hiking is this cement trail to the top of Signal Hill or even better to the top of Buena Vista park in SF. Of course that usually comes after partying all night at the End Up so it automatically gets my vote as the best hiking trip on the planet! Given all that, I found myself less than enthused to go on this photography session in my local nature center. The last thing I wanted was a bunch of pictures of ducks and flowers. I went and actually managed to really enjoy the day. A couple days later, when my little group compared pictures, I had to just chuckle to myself. All my mates had these great pictures of the creek, macros of flowers, etc. Me, I had a picture of this recycled telephone pole that someone started graffiting. It was my favorite shot of the day. Go figure.
