Frustrations

Communication
lacking, lagging

Frustration
boiling, bleeding

Questions
brewing, breaking

When I ask myself why certain situations cause me pain and anxiety, I am left with no answers, but just more questions.

It is so frustrating to be frustrated...stressful to be stressed.
My mind races, my heart pounds, my ears turn red.

Color

When editing my photos I like playing with color - turning up the hues to make something pop, or to shift the focus. It's not quite summer yet, spring flowers may be fading, and the summer heat may be in full force, but I did get a chance to captures some of the blossoms blooming this spring. Chico State is a great place to take photographs, with the architecture as a backdrop, I had a lot of fun looking for the perfect blooms and found a beautiful blue bike along the way!

Patience

I love it when you ask the world for what you think you need, and it responds with exactly what you actually need.

The City by the Bay

I had a wonderful weekend with friends and family in the bay. I got to celebrate a friend's graduation and Mother's Day. It was absolutely beautiful, and although I didn't take a lot of photos, I did get a couple good shots! I obviously have struggled with the 30 day photo challenge again, but as a good friend pointed out this weekend, the great thing about a 30 day challenge is you can always start the 30 days over again! So, perhaps I will start again this summer when I have more free time to explore my artistic eye.  In the meantime, here are two shots from this weekend!

Day 3: Overcast

So Day 3 of the photography challenge was supposed to be of clouds, but unfortunately it was pretty overcast all day today and this evening.  So I am reposting a photograph I took earlier this year, which also happens to be one of my favorites for the color filter I used.
