Capture Life: Photography; windows and wonder.

I got a new lens for my birthday...

and on my Spring Break adventure to DC and Philly I got a little too excited about it.



































I began to take pictures of EVERYTHING. From sleeping frogs (do they even sleep?) to historic buildings.

My sweetheart of a brother, Andrew, took me into Best Buy the first day of our Spring Break trip and led me to the lens section and said "pick one."

My heart jumped with excitement as I immediately reached for the shiny, new 250mm lens.

Hence, began my three-day obsession with taking close-up pictures of everything that caught my eye. But my three favorite shots from the entire trip are those of windows...
























All unedited, and in my personal opinion, all are wonderful in their capacity to capture light and the blurred transparency of the glass.

Our trip was sweet, and filled with so many lovely conversations with both my brothers (one lives in Philly) and new discoveries of historic treasures.

Although it was a short three-day venture, it helped fuel my deep longing for discovery and nurture my heart for creativity.

New lenses, new perspectives, new wonders and new windows.

I'm excited to see what new explorations and discoveries are on their way :)
