Hardly any bigger than a mouse, they peek inside and see how wet they are behind the ears.

Combined with a drop o' blood, they peer into the crystal ball and say we've got a healthy baby. Most likely.

A continuation of the translucents project.

Beautiful light today, makes these poppies almost translucent!

Project developed in collaboration with Iosif Sebastian Karacioni

The light coming through the balloon. It really made them seem different.

Cherie Babette Unboxing

Hollyhocks are in the garden across the street from our home. This was taken after a brief shower the other evening. The petals of the flower were almost translucent and looked very fragile.

About Semuc Champey, Guatemala

Semuc Champey is a natural monument in the department of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, near the Q'eqchi' Maya town of Lanquín. It consists of a natural 300 m limestone bridge, under which passes the Cahabón River. Atop the bridge is a series of stepped, turquoise pools, a popular swimming attraction. Although it can be difficult to get to, Semuc is becoming more and more popular with travelers.

Not much, but it's something.

1. Classes & college life started back up Monday & have left me with NO time for anything I actually want to do.

2. I am now a photojournalist for TommieMedia, my school's news website. My first photo essay dealio is here!

3. I get to use the TommieMedia Canon Rebels for my photojournalist duties...& at the same time for shots like these :)

Some hatched eggs on the tip of a leaf of a native shrub. I am guessing shieldbugs? They leave such translucent and pretty looking cases! [Lower Blue Mountains, NSW].

Vintage onion skin paper that's been scored, torn, folded, then stitched, each side of the card contains a free-floating hearts made of colored tissue, When held up to the light, the second heart reveals its little secret: "i love you."

The openings along the sides and bottom of the card are hand-stitched in alternating blue and golden yellow cotton thread, the torn edges have that wonderful, slightly brittle texture that's unique to onion skin typing paper.

Found during a day hike in Vohimana reserve, Madagascar.
