hmm if you've looked at my gallery lately you might have the impression i like shells. you might be right!

i've been collecting these fascinating little creations for as long as i can remember... isn't it strange that while i don't like looking at death, i can be enthralled by skeletons (of all kinds.. well except for maybe bugs).

now i've started photographing these beauties, i think i'll have to retrieve the rest of my collection from my parents house. i don't know where i'll keep them, though!

meanwhile it's tulip festival in the city, and i'm heading out to the tea party concert tonight. woohoo! chillin' with friends tonight and tomorrow. should be a blast.

don't forget to celebrate hawksley day on the 23rd!

i hope my camera holds out... it's been showing a few signs of sickness since last weekend, but most of the time works fine.

i'm also on the lookout (last minute) for inspiration to enter this contest: [link]
entries must be postmarked may 18.

finally, a big thank you to everyone who has commented and fav'd my work over the past few months. i haven't been keeping up with replies, but i truly do appreciate all your input.

"i'm sorry, because i'm just trying to make an impression.. and maybe even a good impression..."
