I think it's always important to be vigilant of what you're doing and aware of your surroundings.

October
O hushed October morning mild,
Thy leaves have ripened to the fall;
Tomorrow's wind, if it be wild,
Should waste them all.
The crows above the forest call;
Tomorrow they may form and go.
O hushed October morning mild,
Begin the hours of this day slow.
Make the day seem to us less brief.
Hearts not averse to being beguiled,
Beguile us in the way you know.
Release one leaf at break of day;
At noon release another leaf;
One from our trees, one far away.
Retard the sun with gentle mist;
Enchant the land with amethyst.
Slow, slow!
For the grapes' sake, if the were all,
Whose elaves already are burnt with frost,
Whose clustered fruit must else be lost—
For the grapes' sake along the all.

With this series of images I'm hoping to raise awareness of mental health and stop the stigma, when it comes to mental illnesses. Stay strong!

This image celebrates International Jaguar Day.
International Jaguar Day was created to raise awareness about the increasing threats facing the jaguar and the critical conservation efforts ensuring its survival from Mexico to Argentina.
Observed annually on November 29, International Jaguar Day celebrates the Americas’ largest wild cat as an umbrella species for biodiversity conservation and an icon for sustainable development and the centuries-old cultural heritage of Central and South America.
The jaguar (Panthera onca) is a large felid species and the only extant member of the genus Panthera native to the Americas. The jaguar's present range extends from Southwestern United States and Mexico in North America, across much of Central America, and south to Paraguay and northern Argentina in South America.
It is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List; and its numbers are declining. Threats include loss and fragmentation of habitat.
Overall, the jaguar is the largest native cat species of the New World and the third largest in the world. This spotted cat closely resembles the leopard, but is usually larger and sturdier. It ranges across a variety of forested and open terrains, but its preferred habitat is tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forest, swamps and wooded regions.
The jaguar enjoys swimming and is largely a solitary, opportunistic, stalk-and-ambush predator at the top of the food chain. As a keystone species it plays an important role in stabilizing ecosystems and regulating prey populations.
This gecko kept a cautious eye on me as it hugged this banana leaf.
This is my second shot for the weekly theme of "contact," the second of four themes with which Myla Kent and I have chosen to challenge ourselves.
I like the large version of this one.
When you go walking, train your senses, see what was previously hidden. See the sights, colors, shapes, textures, hear the sounds, subtle noises, smell the floral fragrance wafting through the air, feel the wind on your face, stop at the bakery and taste some fresh baked goods. Take time to tune yourself in to your everyday surroundings, you'll see what you are missing.

The Crespi Lacrosse team is walking around their home track on February 14th to raise money and awareness for breast cancer. My boyfriend Blake Gaytan who is on the team told me about their cause and I really think what they are doing is an amazing thing. I along with the Lacrosse team as well as many other participants am going to also walk for this cause. Since I know that all of you cannot be there to walk with us I would really love if you could visit the following website to get more information and pledge.
PLEASE GO TO
October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.
This photo is also for the annual Boobie-Thon that runs Oct 1 - 7. You can get more information here.

Part of a set I did on self-injury. No, it's not real. Corn syrup and food coloring. But it's a real situation that countless people have experienced.
It was cathartic to do these. I wanted to turn my painful past experiences into something beautiful.
Apparently a friggin' TON of people have viewed this, and yet... no comments.
Come on, guys.

i decided to delete the other one because this one is not as dark and bleak looking...and i think it has more of a symbolic message of hope. so in case you didn't see the other one and you have no idea what this is about. i'm interning at a battered women's shelter this semester and i'm helping them put together a course to educate emergency workers on what the signs of domestic violence are. i wanted to find a good intro image. this is a combination of two images.

Alles, was sich manifestiert, singt nur ein einziges Lied – das der Leere und der Fülle. Wir nehmen die Welt der Erscheinungen und des Bewusstseins wahr, die Welt des Lichts und der Finsternis, die sich in einem Tanz offenbaren, in dem es keine Trennung gibt.
