This week, Delaware County held its annual county fair. It was cancelled last year, and the grandson was really looking forward to going this year. Often we all go, some to watch the souped-up mighty tractors and some to see the animal, vegetable and flower exhibits.
Alas - with the COVID variant spreading, it was deemed too risky to go to such a crowded event this year.
So we held our own fair! Everyone entered vegetables they had grown, and Chris and I made flower exhibits. She then went all-out and made funnel cakes and other goodies that people like to eat at fairs. The model tractor collection came out, and Chris found videos of tractor pulls to watch after dinner. Grandpa [my hubby], exhibited some old farm tools and told stories of his younger days on the farm. And a good time was had by all!

Snow, snow and snow, took this a morning before sunup. This week I had a lot of photos to choose from, I will put my runner-up in comments.
what if I fall and hurt myself
would you know how to fix me?
what if I went and lost myself
would you know where to find me?
if I forgot who I am,
would you please remind me?
I’ve been listening to this cover of 'Hazy' all week.
I haven't been on the computer until 9pm every day.
and I will only allow myself to be on the internet for an hour a day for the next weeks. because I need to concentrate on school. so I apologize in advance if I don't comment/favourite your photos or reply to your flickrmail in a while. I will have a look at them at some point!
I have so many pictures of this shoot, I overall took 631, but I don’t have enough time to edit them, so it may take some time until I upload them.

[ 11 / 52 Weeks - 12 - 18 march ]
This week subject: Book(s).
Guardo queste ultime tre foto del mio album e mi chiedo: ma questi toni cupi, questi scatti "strani"?? Ah boh! Credo di non essere molto a posto con me stessa. Fatto sta che non mi vanno a genio colori molto chiari. Spero di tornare presto con un po' di ALLEGRIA!
Lui è il mio atlante (lo stesso di Anatomy of a flower.). Ha delle bellissime illustrazioni e spesso penso di utilizzarlo come soggetto per le mie foto..ed altrettanto spesso boccio la mia stessa idea.XD
Credo che non mi dispiacerebbe iniziare un PROJECT a tema "Scatti dall' Atlante". Ci penserò.
Week 1/ Musty For the group: 52 Weeks for Dogs
i think she was wishing that that chicken was real
Musty is small but very brave, she almost never barks, loves to chase birds, rabbits and everything that moves..
Week#146 Reflections: I dug into the archives for this one. It is a favorite of mine. What you are seeing is a pond within a pond. A generous woman donated her land to be made into a park. The park has ponds stocked with fish, ballparks, picnic areas and places to just sit and relax.
I have a tendency to overdo the post-processing, so I'm ending my 52 Weeks with a simple one. Alice inspired me!
This project was FUN! It was just the right pace - I definitely lack the discipline for 365 - and I've challenged myself with plenty of new techniques and learnt a lot. Hurrah!
The dog days of summer are finally here. If we don't get him up and moving early in the day he will sleep the day away. We discovered a new path along the lake yesterday and managed to get in a good walk before it got too hot. I could not convince him to go swimming, but he did do a bit of wading.
Caroline needed some publicity shots for her next performance piece, which is loosely based around Celtic mythology and place. I'm going to be incredibly busy this week so I decided to edit one on gut instinct. Hope she likes it!

[april 5 - 11, 2010]
For this week’s theme of copycat, I have done a rainbow version of Isabelle’s pencil line up. I always love her creative takes on a theme.
and sometimes I feel like doing what I want.
but I can’t. at least not for now. I have 7 exams in march, is this ever going to end?
in fact, it is. in nineteen weeks school will finally be over for good. I cannot wait.
but for now, I’ll just try to take care of all my responsibilities, while the fear of my a-levels is eating me up.
London, because I’ll be going there in summer. after school is over. yesyesyesyesyes.

that girl right there
will make it on her own
so this is it, the end of a project that has lasted for a whole year.
during the past fifty two weeks, I believe I have come closer to the person I am supposed to be. when I started this project, I was afraid of what would come next and at the same time I wanted to remember every single moment of it.
my last year of school began and I have never been as stressed before. I have never slept as little before and I have never wanted to give up as many times before. when I look back now, I see all I have been feeling in the pictures I took for every week of that year. I see despair and loneliness, but at the same time joy and feeling safe.
during the first thirty weeks school took over my life and I hardly had time for anything else. but at some point, I had survived my a-levels and the stress was over for at least a bit. I could finally spend time with friends again and relax, only to get drawn back by new exams and tests a few weeks later. a last stressful phase began and in week forty one, everything was over. everything I feared when I started this project was suddenly over and I was the happiest I have ever been. I could finally concentrate on other things, I made new friends, and although there have been bad and unproductive days too, this summer was the best one I ever had.
and now I am almost where I have been last year: I am afraid. afraid of what the future will bring. afraid of letting go everything that was, afraid of things changing and friends leaving. but there is this little difference. I have learned a lot during the past year and I believe that this project has helped me appreciate everything I have and that is what makes accepting changes easier for me now.
in some respects I know exactly what I want, and then again I have no idea whatsoever. and that is okay as it is.
the past year also made me realize where I want to go with my photos. I have started to take film photos and I took a picture a day for one hundred days of my summer. all that, and most of all the photos I took for this project, made me realize that I want them to be memories. when I look at all the pictures I’ve taken during the past fifty two weeks, I see that I have done something right. because they make me feel and they mean the world to me. and that is all I wanted to achieve when I started this project.
I hope at least some of them also mean something to all of you guys out there who are viewing and commenting and favouriting my photos. and I just want to say thank you for always being here and looking at what I wanted to express. thank you so very much.
right now I don’t know what will come next, but I know that I have a whole new life ahead of me.
and I know that I want to develop. I want to change. I want to make it on my own.

Week 10's theme was "Rough" and this is my old ratty 61 year old Lambretta sitting in the garden in the same spot for the best part of 2 years.
Again, shot in IR 850nm and very much a snap as opposed to a decent photo. But it meets the weeks challenge and so I'm happy.
I'm starting a new project, the 52 weeks! I'll upload one photo each week in one year and I'll only post them on facebook, so stay tuned! I'm so happy and I hope I can finish this one.
I hope you like it :)

barcelona. the sun is bright. a shop window dominates the street. it is an advertisement. "blue weeks," it shouts in large letters. a man walks by. he ignores the sign. yet he is part of it. he wears a blue jacket. blue jeans. blue sneakers. a blue backpack. perhaps it is a coincidence. perhaps the city agreed on a color today. for a fraction of a second, the passerby and the poster become one. reality matches the artificial image. a fleeting moment of perfect order.
Enjoying the View

Slowly catching back up on my 52 week project. I'm back out of town again this weekend but I'll try and post while away if I can and I'll catch up on streams when I get back. Have a great weekend everyone
this is what you get from trying to be disciplined.
last night I wrote down everything that is bothering me right now. I made paper cranes out of the sheets.
school is taking over my life. all I've been doing is studying. on monday and tuesday for my spanish exam on wednesday. on wednesday, thursday, friday, saturday and today for the four exams I have next week. four exams. and I feel so unprepared.
I made a list of things I wanted to do/not do this week.
1. not be on the computer till 7:30pm (except for checking my mails and looking up information for school work).
2. do sports.
3. study in time.
4. do my homework.
5. stop biting my nails.
1. I only broke this rule two times. I'm proud of myself for staying away from the computer and not getting distracted. I will probably do the same thing next week.
2. I did.
3. almost. I feel like it isn't even possible to study in time.
4. yes. there hasn't been much, but I did it. except for the things I had to take care of over the weekend. I do not have time for that.
5. I did. I hope I finally stopped perennially.
I don’t have any free time. I feel guilty when I take pictures, because concerning school it is wasted time. I think it isn’t, but I can’t help myself. there are 9 days left until I have a break from school. 9 days and 6 exams. I wonder what I have done to deserve this. I am exhausted. I may say this often, but it’s the truth. I want this to end.
my hair is not as dark as it looks like in these pictures.
