up against a wall

Ok so this is my first attempt venturing out into the real world since the beginning of the semester! The first photo was taken at Historic Bethabara in Winston-Salem, NC. The light was gorgeous, that end of the day light so I hopped a little metal chain with a no-trespassing sign to try to get some shots. I was so uber paranoid the whole time. I could never be a criminal. So get off a couple shots when I hear noises and then I see people! I high tail it out of there. I think I still have some adrenaline pumping to be honest.

So after that failure of an adventure, I came back to campus and tried to get a couple photos before the sun went down completely. This is outside my dorm. All the buildings on campus are brick which I love, it just seems typically collegiate to me.

Not too much to report here. I volunteered today at an after school program for kids, I'm with the first graders. They're so cute! They are always looking for your attention and you never know what they'll say, today they were talking about Justin Bieber.. And then in an hour, I'm going to photograph a gallery opening at our student gallery, S.T.A.R.T, who I am also blogging for! I'll get you the link as soon as I get something posted.

Loving the mixed neutrals. I am also a huge fan of brick buildings. We really don't have many here.
