Ok so I missed last week's upload. Oops.. This whole 52 weeks project thing is weighing heavy on me. I've completely and totally lost all ability to plan out and take pictures. So because I'm not the type of person to give up, I decided to upload an old picture. There ya go!
Oh and I'm super sorry for not responding back to anyone. There just aren't enough hours in the day anymore.
Hope everyone had a good weekend!

I wasn't very prepared for 'roidweek this year, normally I save up some shots but this year I'm shooting day by day. So after dinner I quickly grabbed my camera trying to catch the last bit of sun but missed golden hour by the minute. ♂️
Anyway thought this old Citroën was still worth capturing despite unfortunate lighting.

Better luck with my polaroid camera at the fruit and veggie stand this morning!
Missing the abundance of apples right now.

week 2:HOMETOWN
Mastertons' Pouwhenua.
Pouwhenua or pou whenua (land post), are carved wooden posts used by Māori, the indigenous peoples of New Zealand to mark territorial boundaries or places of significance. They are generally artistically and elaborately carved and can be found throughout New Zealand.
These controversial 20th century interpretations were installed at the northern and southern approaches to Masterton around 2015. The bill for pou came in at just under $92,000, or nearly three times the initial budget. Stage two of the project has never been started.

[ 21 / 52 Weeks - 21 - 27 may ]
This week subject: Music (and cold tea).
A quanto pare se non ho proprio idee, faccio le foto a libri o simili. XD Sono monotona, si.
Questa settimana davvero disperata. Perdonatemi. Mi fa pena.
Perchè il tè? Con questi primi caldi soffro. Non c'è niente di meglio del tè freddo.
Quelle note non sono a caso. E' l'inizio di una canzone con cui mi sono particolarmente fissata in questi giorni. Ovvero questa qui sotto.
On air: Summertime Sadness - Lana del Rey.
Aprés une semaine fatiguante, quel plaisir de se retrouver à la campagne parmi les fleurs.
After a tiring week, what a pleasure to be out in the countryside amongst the flowers.
Explored!
Week 41/52
This shot has been a long time in the making. It was requested by a friend of mine, Mateus, when I first started this project. He wanted me to recreate this sculpture, by my life-long obsession Gian Lorenzo Bernini. I never found the right time to do it, but this week I felt this urge to take the shot. I was already buying the fabric when I realized that tomorrow is actually October 15 — Saint Teresa of Avila's day. So it's either a nice trick my brain did there or a coincidence, but a happy one.
Teresa of Avila is my favorite saint. She's the one I pray to every time things go wrong, she's the one I turn to when I'm sure I can't do this or that, or face a problem or a situation. She's the one whose words I look to, for guidance — so this homage was bound to happen sooner or later.
She was an unbelievably strong woman — the first to be named a Doctor of the Church. Practically alone, she reformed the Carmelites in Spain, turned an order that was loosing itself in the mundane world, into a place of prayer and contemplation. She fought hard for what she wanted, and never seized to work until the day that she died. Her writings (especially her words on her ectsasies) are inspiring to read.
Of course, there's something to be said about the fact that I am representing the angel as well as Saint Teresa in the shot — this came merely out of necessity. I didn't have time to get a kid (even my sister) to do it with me, so I had to do it myself. I understand that for someone who looks into a deeper meaning in this, it might come across as strange, when Teresa of Avila so deeply enjoyed talking about letting go of ourselves and giving our lives to others (and here I am, twice in one shot). But that was the only way the shot could happen, so it had to be this way. Just forget I'm the angel as well. :p
So there's not much more I can say about this shot, other than to leave you with some of my favorite words of hers.
"Be gentle to all, and stern with yourself."
"There are more tears shed over answered prayers than over unanswered prayers."
"To have courage for whatever comes in life -- everything lies in that."

On a completely different topic, I've been thinking about reopening my Etsy shop. Do you guys think I should? I've been getting some requests for prints, and I'd sure like to make some money with my work. But at the same time… i don't know. Do you guys think I should?
[Note (January 2015): The window and the arrow were found during a google search. I'm not sure if they are protected by copyright — at the time when I did this, I wasn't completely aware of copyright policy and I did it innocently — but it doesn't take from the fact that I used stock imagery. I've tried back search and other ways of tracking, but I haven't come up with these photos. Either way, if someone knows the author of the window or of the arrow, and can direct me to them, I'll be really grateful. And to the authors of these photos: I sincerely apologize, and I hope that if you ever come across this photo and see your work, you let me know so that I can properly credit you, or take it down. Thank you.]
Every week I am planing to write one quote on blackboard in our studio. Maybe it will inspire someone. And it is a nice little project to work on it. :)))
Sometimes I am proud of myself.
I've been everywhere.
I was gullible, I was inocent and I could get easily influenced by anyone.
I had colective dreams and superficial sadness, I cried for anything.
Once you changed of school so many times, and of country and city, you get sharp.
You don't get hard, or nasty with anyone. You just know where you are, and you know what being in a temporal place is.
You know how to meet new people, because is the only thing you've ever done since you were a child.
You are used to miss, you are used to think of better places and notice at an early age that you always want what you don't have.
You know what distance is, and you appreciate your family.
I don't usually get to know people, I just meet them. I could fill a province with all the people I know, but not even a room with people that has always been with me.
You've seen so much, known too much, too much stories, too much dreams, too much enemies and too much best friends.
You get to a point when the only thing that you want is belong to somewhere.
I couldn't believe my luck when we discovered this chair during our walk on the beach this morning. The dull cloudy day made it seem even more broken.
Better late than never, I have missed the first couple of weeks.
I took this photo in the hope the viewer would see the dreamy light that caught my eye.
My photograph for Week 13 of the Dogwood 52 Week Photography challenge.
This week is about the Golden Hour. The Golden Hour is the hour before sunset or after sunrise when the sun casts amazing golden tones. The brief was to take photograph during the Golden Hour to tell a story

Week 47 already. This year is coming to an end so fast! (I'm sure I felt that way last year as well) We finally managed to get outside while there was still some daylight left.
Week 1/52
I am putting my Creative Hat back on.
It has been over three years since I first started my 365 day project back in 2009! Once I finished the project, I found myself shooting less personal work and focussed more on building my career as a professional portrait and wedding photographer. I've lost some of the creative passion I once had. I've attempted to start another 365 project (twice!) but couldn't find enough time to dedicate to creating photographs I was truly proud of. Therefore...I have started a project I can manage, the 52 week project! I shall take a creative photograph once a week for an entire year and will post it here. Fingers crossed I don't quit this one!
First Challenge of 2016 Reflections. I was putting some stuff away in my daughter's room and spotted this on her dresser.
Happy Halloween
