Skate-Snap

It's been a game of musical chairs with our internet connection lately. Sometimes we have internet credit; more often we don't, and I'm relegated to the sidelines. From here I look on from the tiny window of my smart phone screen, holding all of the pictures I want to upload forlornly in my hand.

One of my favourite things of late has been a photo-walk (Or pede-snap, as I wistfully call them in my head after many hours of West Wing-ing) that Danielle and I took last week to the skate park.


She blogged about it over here. I love the way I can see the correlations between the pictures; the things I was snapping as she snapped particular shots.


It really is the bestest thing to have a friend like Danielle. Exploring photography with her is excellent, because she lets me ask lots of questions and we find new technological functions together without feeling silly. She has definitely kicked off a fresh B&W phase in my life.


Taking pictures of someone who is also taking pictures is so much easier than watching people try to work out if they are going to pose or not. Plus, it gave one of my favourite images so far, from the brief span of time that I have had my beautiful camera:


I hope everyone gets to experience such wonderful times with the most wonderful of friends.
