While I’m still planning on Christmas dinner menu and last minute purchases, I had to stop to photograph something. I was going to photograph the current construction in my block that drives me crazy. It is taking forever and water gets shut down until 5pm everyday… BUT, I looked around for things that I enjoy looking at… and I photographed it using some techniques I am learning in one of the books I am reading. I started reading 2 books, don’t know if it’s recommended to read two books simultaneously but I am trying. I am reading Food Photography and The Glass Castle, two books completely different from each other, but interesting for sure. I would like to get into food photography, learn proper lighting and food staging and I plan to get better at this during the winter. So you may see some food posts in the near future and possible recipes, after all I love to cook and come up with new recipes, why not photograph my yummy dishes. The Glass Castle is totally different, let me be honest, I am not a reader, it could take weeks or months to finish reading a book. But I need to challenge myself and that’s the goal, finish reading that book and other ones I got, all 5 of them…
And before we all disconnect from the internet world, Facebook, twitter and all social media around, I wanted to wish everyone a very nice Christmas with your families and loved ones. Enjoy the company, enjoy the loads of food, the gifts but mostly enjoy the moment. Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad!
PS: I love cows…When I saw this ornament at Target, I starting dancing and jumping like a little girl with a new barbie. It’s the little things…
