Ya Ya its been a LONG time since my last post. It has also been a long winter. However it is NOW Spring!!! what what!!! I am sad that the snow is gone (although having just gone to Maine this past weekend for 1 last shred mission Bethel would disagree) the Sun is out till past 6, and my beach days are getting closer. I am starting to feel motivated.

Until I can afford a smaller camera that I can just keep in my bag, I went and got an IPhone to try and capture the moments. I REFUSE to become a person that just uses the IPhone with the cool apps, even though it is slightly addicting. However this winter was a winter of some firsts.

First was finally getting to go to Colorado!!! I have never seen mountains so big, snow so fresh, trails so wide, sun so strong, air so thin, people so pretty, food so yummy, and drinks so delicious. I am lucky enough to have a friend who lives the life.She lives here in Wellfleet in the summer, and Vail/Beaver Creek in the winter! can't get any better.I sent her a message and told her make room I am coming out! So myself, Elspeth (Diary of a Locavore) her husband Alex, my brother from another mother Corey, KC, and the famous actor Adam had a time to remember.
My friend Corey is an amazing photographer. So when he and I were walking down these train tracks, we both stopped and said "photo session"... the came out pretty cool. Part of me feels that they would have had more depth if they were taken with a "real camera" not a phone. But non the less I thought I would share them.

There were a TON amazing shots through out the whole 5 days, these last 2 just captured my favorites.

 I am a big goal setter. With that said my first goal of spring is to get my butt out there and take some dang photos. If you have any hints on what kind of smaller but AFFORDABLE camera that still takes high grade photos, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! 

coming soon......

I have been a little un-inspired these past couple of months. It could be because it has been WINTER. I am snow-bunny, however we have had nothing but Rain this winter. ANd well frankly it has gotten me a bit depressed. So my plan this up and coming week (thank you god it's Feb vacation week)  is to really get out there and take some photos.  So sorry for the delay but come on back .....

Moto-Cross....

 My brother Seamus works on some of the coolest, bad-ass, some might say craziest tv shows and movies EVER!!!. He is lucky enough to have worked on shows like NITRO-CIRCUS, and the world famous JACKASS. I have no clue how he got so lucky. He gets to travel all around the world hanging with world class athletes, well Travis Pastrana is pretty world class, Steve-O well...hhhmm.. maybe not an athlete but some would say world class something.
Anyways, Seamus really never brags about what he does. He is pretty humble about it. That is until my 7 year old nephew NEMO got his first motocross bike for his birthday. A REAL SUZUKI 50 MOTO-BIKE!!! It is AWESOME. So Seamus pulled some strings and got Nemo,his dad, myself, and my other brother Ethan tickets to see a motocross contest last friday night. Nemo's eyes are huge enough, so you can only imagine how big they got as he watched Matt Buyten doing back flips and super-mans. It was truly one of the best nights in a long time with the men in my life. Now if only I can get Seamus to take me to the DC MOUNTAIN LAB...then well he will really be the best brother.

Now don't forget that I am just learning how to take photos. This was my first time taking any shots, (let alone action shots) in-doors. The lighting was difficult to get down and it all happens so fast. So any advice you can give would be beyond helpful. I was enjoying every second with my camera. I think I took hundreds of photos. These where just a few.
