when a friend of mine pointed out this super-cool-looking zucchini squash to me… i exclaimed, “i wanna take a picture of that!” 😉
i always buy the “weird-looking” produce… mainly for this here bloggy blog, but also because – weird is cool.

{tiny tuesday : TH2 update}
10 Junthe house is coming along nicely. it looks really cute and i can’t wait to see it when it’s complete. watching it being built has me dreaming of having my own actual mobile tiny house someday… and i hope to make that happen!
for now, i am enjoying living in this great tiny home and watching one being built right next door – pretty sweet stuff!
here are some more fotos of the project, still currently underway…

i couldn’t run out to grab a foto of the tiny house because that would be crazy, so this will have to suffice 😉

DAY SIX:
day six… walls all over the place!
{thirsty thursday – zuberfizz draft soda!}
13 Mar
everyone knows i love to support local. and obviously i’m totally down with the all-natural. however, you may be surprised to discover that i love ginger ale. i mean i LOVE IT! almost as much as i love beer… almost.
{abstract snow}
25 Febi took my camera for a walk the other day… and goodness, was it slushy and wet. however, it was still cool to see all the snow in its many forms… the patterns the water creates and carves as the it melts is just fascinating to me!
{thirsty thursday – “snapshot” from new belgium… it’s like they finally made a beer just for me!}
20 Febwhen i first spotted this at my local liquor store, i literally squealed, and then immediately grabbed my phone to take a picture. are you kidding?! i mean, you know they’re my absolute favourite, right?! and you know i’m a fotographer, right?! …
i didn’t buy it right away because i was walking… but then just yesterday, as i was having brunch with one of my girlfriends, i totally got to try it on tap!!!!
it is SO DELICIOUS!! super cloudy and blonde, definitely a true wheat beer… full of flavour but not over-the-top strong. it went down like orange juice, and so i had to have another… i am eager to try it from the bottle as well. and then, i’ll take a food-and-foto style pic of it 😉
ohhh, new belgium – you never fail me.
cheers!
{whatever wednesday – the dark side of snow : volume two}
12 Febcontinued from last week –
isn’t this wild?!?! sunken evil snow creature emerges… aaaaaahhhhh!!!
…
love the gradient effect…
literally a “mountain” of snow…
{deciphering abstract fotos – volume one}
11 Novcan you guess what this is a fotograph of?! when i saw it, i just HAD to run and get my camera and capture these images…
the only manipulating i did to these fotos was in post-production, and the only thing i did was add contrast… and if someone can figure out what i actually fotographed, i will be so completely shocked. i think it will also be fun to see what kind of responses i can get!
😀
below is a close-up….
please comment!
pssssttt, hey – have fun! now, today, tomorrow, this week, next week, all month, the rest of this year… 2014… and beyond! 😀
{foto friday : the coolest cattle}
8 Nov
i almost didn’t share these fotos… simply because i felt like what i witnessed was so sacred and so divine… i really felt the connection and bond to these creatures as i was fotographing them a couple weeks ago… there was something very special about my moments behind the camera with this herd of cattle. i even get a little teary-eyed thinking of it now.
hundreds of these animals live not to far up the road from me, on a gorgeous ranch. most of these are dairy cows, however a few of them are angus cows.
now, i’m not necessarily a vegetarian {though i’ve had my stints}, but i limit my intake of meat in general, and only once in a great while do i eat red meat. but when i do, i am so very particular about where it comes from and how the animal was treated while raised. i am too educated not to make wise decisions about what i eat. {watch food, inc. or any other number of food documentaries and see what i mean} i feel like it’s my responsibility in a way… and i was so happy to know that i could find and purchase grass-fed meats locally here in my new town.
what made me feel really good about seeing the angus cows on this farm, was knowing what a happy life they had. they weren’t shoved into a cattle-lot and stepping over each other just to eat. they were out grazing… on the most beautiful pasture, surrounded by mount sopris, bein’ all cool…
just hanging out, like this :
{“painting with light”, while celebrating the autumn equinox}

{stunning and scrumptious squash blossoms}
19 Aug
i mean, these are just gorgeous… right?!
i’ve always wanted to make something with squash blossoms, but due to the fact that they are hard to find and have a small window of availability, i often miss my opportunity…
…but not this time 🙂
goat cheese stuffed squash blossoms… stunning and scrumptious.
i could’ve had full-on foto shoot with them, but i got hungry… so this will have to suffice…
…for now 😉 Continue reading

{specialty produce – passionfruit}
6 Augdefinitely one of the more interesting and bizarre-looking fruits i’ve eaten…
have you ever had a passionfruit?! i bet you’ve had something with the flavour of passionfruit in it, like a drink or something… they are an interesting fruit. as they ripen, they begin to look like this foto – kind of wrinkly and you may even think it’s gone bad… but no no no! it’s just right…
when you first cut into a passionfruit, you may take a look inside and be like, “what in the world…?!”
