Criccieth castle is truly magnificent and somehow very intimate. Imposing yet inviting and in the early morning we would find ourselves the only visitors.
We were staying only 50 yards from the castle entrance and the garden of the house was virtually in the castle grounds.
Dear Flickr,
I would like to start this note by apologizing to everyone about the sheer lack of thought put into this image. It was simply put here to have an interesting description, one that might provoke comments and insight onto what my lack of creativity might NOT be steaming from anywhere.
Tomorrow I am donating my day to photography, I am going to have something worthy of uploading, and I'm going to fall in love with at least one of my pictures. Its important. I've had a huge lack of anything I'm in love with on my stream since several uploads ago, and those are now few and far between. My 365's pretty much tanked, I'm not going to say I quit, but I'm going to start over eventually, leaving what I've done where it is.
I've learned so much from flickr, not only to I gather insparation from Flickr, I meet new people, one of my best friends, Jessika and I are friends because of Flickr.
I've learned so much about myself over the past year it makes me sick to think about. I've grown up, so much. Thinking back last year I was a kid, and now I'm a young adult, ready to grow up and move on. It makes me sad and happy at the same time.
I learned who I am, who my friends really are, who I love, and who I care about, Who I'd do anything for, who I wouldn't, who I trust and who I don't. I'm proud of myself for all of that, learning that much at 15 and knowing and trusting in yourself that its true is a huge deal that not many people can claim at a young age. I admitted to myself I have downfalls, and I learned how to deal with them. I admitted I have issues, and I fixed them. I've overcome the world at 15, and I'm ready for more.
Flickr is a site for sharing artwork, and inspiration, but what people don't realize when they start out, is Flickr is almost like a way of life. You learn so much from it. Its a religion its in itself, and an interest to so many people.
I know for a fact that I wouldn't be taking as many pictures as I do now, or perusing my dream as much as I am at the moment, if it wasn't for flickr.
I wouldn't get half the caring, or constructive criticism in my day to day photography life then I would if I didn't have a Flickr.
Reading this all over again makes me sound like a Flickr obsessed woman, but in the reality of it, this is a way of life.
This is a revolution kids.
So Shan-ria came today, so happy! The box she came in was a lot bigger than I expected, as was she. I love her so much. Definitley worth the money I paid. Her hair is a bit of a frizzy mess but I'm sure I'll find a good solution soon :) I totally recommend her, such good quality.
My mum says 'You could've gotten a few MH dolls instead of that one doll'. I'm not done or bored with MH, I guess I'm just satisfied in a way. I haven't got a craze for anything at the minute and I'm happy with the ones I already have. I will post a 'naming pic' of Shan-ria as she looks out of box :)
She might kill me if she sees this. She always thinks she is not photogenic. I tend to disagree. The question is, who is more biased?
She was just as adorable as she could be and was just starting to walk..more like running!
I did use this texture from http://www.flickr.com/photos/duncan_allan/2679984590/in/set-72157606238844843/
