Upgrade

Sometimes, my parents spoil me.

For instance: on my birthday, they gave me a new camera.

I'll miss my old Canon 300D, but the prospect of continuous shooting sounds too good to pass up on!

Here are a couple of test shots I collected over the past couple of months:

So, what have you been up to lately?

Autumn Falls

That's what I wanted to call my blog at first - Autumn Falls. But alas, the link was already taken! Calling this blogpost autumn falls is my way of getting over this tragic tragic event.

Eh,
Yes,
Getting to the point.

Even though I'm glad to wrap myself in ten scarfs and pull on five pairs of gloves to match - I'm sad to watch the summer leave. This is the boundary between summer and autumn.

Fact: that is my favorite scarf. I can wrap it around my neck three times and look like a complete idiot. 

I also helped a friend with her school assignment which had "a ten minute walk" as theme. It was Alice in Wonderland-related and I just got the pictures back (friendly reminder to self: please, start running again). This is my favorite one:

I have this thing where I really like to look up at the sky in pictures (*cough* I also do it in my "about me" picture *cough*). Somehow, I deluded myself into thinking it looked mysterious.

Photographer: Rosanne Eijzinga.

Model: well ... that would be me.

And this is her Flickr account.

Honestly, it's easier to take self-portraits. Or hide under a rock. You know, whatever floats your boat (/rock).

Okay, I have to get some fresh air.
