Well, I don’t think I’m going to have a photo for you today (maybe I’ll slip an older photo in at the end), but we did get some snow up here in the Arizona high country. That was neat. Too bad it’s already starting to melt. This makes me sad. Too bad I had to work ALL DAY the day it snowed, otherwise I may have gone gallivanting around the fields behind my apartment to get some photos. I haven’t really done much in the way of snow photography with my DSLR so it’ll be neat to do some this winter. Read the rest of this entry »
Will be food eventually…
My real goal with these shots was to make a nice fall/autumn PUMPKIN wallpaper for my MacBook. I’m not really sure I hit the nail on the head. I mean, these photos are nice, but nothing special. The pumpkins don’t scream EAT ME! nor do they give me warm fuzzies about this lovely fall season. I like fall, there’s just something about it that makes me warm. Perhaps it’s the pulling out of warm blankets and sweatshirts for the first time since summer that gives me the warmth impression. Plus the colors for this season are lovely.
Of course there is no real, wonderfully colorful autumn where I live. We have some aspens up in the mountains that turn, but it’s rather quick and not anything stunning like some locations in the eastern US. I admit, I am jealous of those locations. Arizona as whole generally lacks color. I find this makes me horribly depressed – nothing is vibrant, or if it is, it’s so small and for such a short time that you’re likely to miss it. But at least I have some supermarkets that I can purchase cool things like turban squashes from. I love the metroid looking pumpkin! It makes me HAPPY! You know what else makes me happy? My brand-spankin-new, black, 32gb, iPhone 4s! I preordered it on the 7th and got it this weekend. We had a bit of a debacle, but we eventually got my phone an actual phone number and got it activated. And now I’m lovin’ it! I will have to take some photos with the camera and then post them, just to see how they hold up (though I know in general, my DSLR will win).
