Kate's Dad

July 2009
I sneakily took this photo of Kate's father while staying with them for a couple of nights. I just love how it perfectly captures the moment of late afternoon. We sat there sipping tea and reading the newspaper. I loved every minute of it. The most amazing part had to be signing the guest book and seeing the signatures of both my parents from almost thirty years ago.

Grandparent's Apartment

November 2009
I took this photo of my friend Eliza while staying at her grandparents in NY for Thanksgiving break. I just loved how ornate, yet homey the apartment was.

New York Snowflake

November 2009
For Thanksgiving break I went to New York with my friend Eliza. We took a day trip into the city and while admiring the amazing Christmas displays I spied this snowflake hanging within the midst of the buildings.

The Tree By My Window

October 2009
One day I woke up to find the sun shining beautifully through the tree outside my window. I love how yellow everything is. The trees were in the prime of their colour.

Knautia Arvensis

July 2009
On a walk with our good friend Kate, these flowers filled the English fields. I love how in the background you can see the expanse of the countryside. 

Jette d'Eau


June 2009
Three friends and I decided to take a day trip to Geneva while studying in France. On our walk to the U.N. we stopped to admire the famous fountain. It just looked unreal with the tiny boats passing by. I also like how in the very far distance you can spy mountains. I couldn't decide if I liked this photo better in black and white or colour, so I chose to put them both up! It's almost as if the two images could have been taken in different eras.

Boston Art Museum

November 2009
One day while exploring Boston, my friend Eliza and I came across this art museum. It seemed to be in the middle of some random car park and the only reason we found it was because we were on our way to the Christmas Festival. We literally walked forever to go to the festival, only to find out it was mainly soccer Mums with an entrance fee of $10. Still worth the adventure.

Lyon Church

June 2009
A church in Lyon, France. The stained glass was just amazing.
