A few pictures I took a while back with a disposable camera. The girl in them is my little sister, who I coerced into traipsing up to the back of the new estate with me, carrying a quilt, which got us numerous odd looks.

I quite like how they turned out, I definitely prefer film/disposable cameras over digital, despite the fact that they're more time consuming.

My Birthday Wish

I love birthdays. Everyone is always happy. I love choosing or making presents and wrapping them just as much as I like receiving them, maybe even more.
What's your favourite thing about birthdays?

Lovely photos by Mario Leko.

Cross your fingers

I wish my wardrobe looked like this. Have a look at more lovely things over here.

Sorry for the lack of blogging. Hopefully I'll blog more regularly now :).

Jill Willcot

Pretty pretty photos by Jill Willcott. They have a lovely, soft, memory sorta feel to them, don't you think? I wonder if a disposable camera would produce photos like that. Maybe I will try it out sometime. Can you even buy disposable cameras anymore? I remember when they used to have heaps, all piled up on the shelves at the registers. But I don't think I've seen any for a while.

Do you have any ways you use to get photos like this?

Nirrimi

Just sharing one of my favourite photographers, some of her photos are really fun, others are more serious, I love pretty much all of them. Go here to look at more.

Photography

I have a heap of photos saved on my computer, figured I'd share a few. Sorry I don't know the sources. But they're lovely :).








P.S. They cancelled Rock Eisteddfod Australia wide this year! I am absolutely devastated, it's such a big part of our school and a great experience. So I'll miss it, I really hope it comes back on next year.

Old but lovely

I've always wanted to collect something. The closest I've got to collecting something was having a book of stamps when I was about 10, but that book is long gone, most likely buried under piles and piles of barbie dolls.
I was in the op shop the other day (looking for frames) when I found this lovely little thing.


A bit battered definitely, but I love it none the less. It was pretty cheap too.
It was when I came home and sat it next to my great - grandfather's camera and my polaroid...



that I decided I am going to collect old cameras :).

Nikoline, an 18-year-old with a camera.

I found this wonderful photographer on someone's blog a while ago, I have no idea who's it was. Anyway, I think they're simply gorgeous photos, don't you? This is what I wish my winters were like. Plus I want her clothes!






This last one has inspired me to find out whether I can work my great - grandfather's old camera.

Also...


I've received an award from S and O Productions, thank you so much :).

Hope you all had a lovely weekend, what did you get up to? :)

Hello again!

I'm back. The computer's fixed...well enough so I can go on the internet anyway.
I've had a good couple of days lately. I went to a friend's house yesterday and we mucked around, took photos, made pirate hats and paper boats. And today I went down to the river. I've never been much of a 'river person', I usually spend all summer at the pool. But it's actually really nice there, I think I'll be spending a few more summer days floating along in the water. Also today I put the t - shirt from this post on layby.

And my Polaroid Spirit 600 arrived in the mail yesterday!

As you all know, the film is very expensive at the moment. I took one photo (only slightly planned) to check if the camera worked. It did. I left it, and when I returned, I was not happy to see that the little number on the camera had flicked down to 8. A quick check of my sister's room solved this puzzle. She'd taken a photo of herself! Note to Alana: This is not the way to please your sister.


My lovely little camera in it's new spot :).

Computer's still broken.

So I don't quite have the time atm to reply to any of your comments, as I have limited time on this library computer. Unwise little me didn't book before I came, so I only have time to share a few photos with you. I'll prebook next time!






Her flickr. Go have a look see.


P.S. Got a Polaroid Spirit 600 off Etsy. Yay!

It's like forgetting, the words to your favourite song...

The computer's going to get fixed tomorrow I think. I swear it may as well be a snail with the speed it's going at. So I don't know when I'll post again, but I won't be too far away. Ttfn! :).






Pretty images via wehearit. The second is my favourite cause I had (have perhaps) a camera identical to the one the little boy has.

Just a bit of pink.

Plus this quote, cause I love it.

The saddest kind of sad is the sad that tries not to be sad. You know, when sad tries to bite its lip and not cry and smile and go “No, I’m happy for you”? That’s when it’s really sad.

Longing for holidays..

Just a quick post. My school has roped me into debating tomorrow. Tomorrow, and they only got a team together today. How organised! Haha. I do actually love debating, but I am not in the mood to write 2 four minute speeches in one night. Especially when I have to go to my sister's presentation night as well.
Anyhow, there's no getting out of it. I just can't wait till the term's over. Only 7 more school days! For now I thought I'd leave you with this cute little quote/embroidery. I can think of so many books that it applies to.
Hopefully I will bring you a more interesting post tomorrow!

Sometimes I wonder...

I've got my very first blog award also :). With it comes a challenge, a bit like a scavenger hunt...so I will take some photos tonight, and will get them all posted and explain tomorrow.

Tim Walker

I was doing my usual photography browsing when I came across Tim Walker. Wow he has some amazing work. Wouldn't it be wonderful to go buy a cute little car, strap a bed onto the top and go driving around the countryside. Far better than a caravan! Or maybe camp inside...?

Have you ever seen the light?

Sorry for all the pictures but I've just been finding really beautiful photos lately.
