A few of my Fav's

by YolandaC - last update: Feb 9, 2006

Ms. Smiley

Ms. Smiley

Nadja - one of my favourite persons. She is just as she looks - sunny, radiant, joyful and kinda sparkly. She shows me and then reminds me of all the beauty in our world. She worships colour, texture and scent. She always arrives with a bushel of flowers, a book from the flea market and a bottle of wine.

Bubbles the Llama

This is one of my favourite animals - Bubbles is her name and spitting is her game. She always looks like she's saying "what the hell?" - but I like her anyway. She lives with friends of mine on a farm overlooking the rocky mountains, she earns her keep by eating, allowing her owners less time on the mower (what a great life!!). She spits when she's mad and admits she doesn't know when she's confused, that's just honest. The world can always use more honesty.
"what the hell"
the life of the sea

The Sea

One day I will live by the sea. On nights when I struggle to fall asleep I imagine a tiny house by the ocean, the windows are thrown open and a breeze carrying the ocean's soothing whispers lull me to sleep. Being a Prairie girl it seems exotic and wild.

The Yellow Ladies

I LOVE black-eyed susans. They seem wild and free to me. I've never had them in my garden, I'd rather visit them - keeping it a special occasion.

Snappin pics

Taking pictures and traveling seem to go hand in hand. My style is I try to make sure the picture is supporting the experience rather than vice versa - sometimes I fail. At times I feel myself so drawn to keeping record the photo becomes the quest and the experience fades into the background, in all honesty it's these photos I find myself disappointed with and both the experience and the photo seem diluted. The photos I like best are the ones I just seemed to snap - the outcome seems less perfect but more real to the moment it was meant to represent.
