Lately.

Asturias (May 2009)

Here are my top 40-something pictures from my trip to Spain. The northern region where I stayed is called Asturias, and I lived in a city called Gijón. I stayed there for 3.5 weeks for my senior internship. I shadowed various schools (ranging from toddlers to college students), made comparisons between the education systems in Spain and in the U.S., as well as helped out in English classes, lived like the Asturianos, and of course, captured it all on film. Hope ya like!

I’ve had all kinds of fun snapping photos of the boys from my favorite band, Fools & Horses. It helps that they’re from Baltimore and don’t mind playing close to home. Not to mention, they’re very photogenic! Some of these photos have been sitting in my library, half-edited for weeks. But I FINALLY got my act together and picked out my favorites. After you enjoy the photos, check out their website: http://foolsandhorses.net/social/ , and listen to their music! Even my father approves! Sincerely Sophie

My life is a mess right now in so many ways. My thoughts are disorganized, and so is my apartment. In that temperment, I wanted to share with you a random mix of photos that I've been working on lately that don't necessarily have any correlation with one another.

Miss you.

I love the playgrounds. Where's the "melting" one? Why do you have goose bumps? Linoy would not look at me for a photo, so you effectively got her attention. I'm going out now to shoot a roll of film in my Hasselblad. PS--you know why they call it a "Hassle" blad, don't you?
Love,

Does Tofi have a friend named "Yofi" or "Sofi(e)" for that matter? The colorful playgrounds look very inviting. I think Eric's portrait captured your current atate, fragile yet beautiful.
