There is still some people out there who put people who are a certain skin colour in a box. I don't believe you can define someone on where their from nor what they look like. Racism is still a big thing. . I get abuse from time to time, as does my sister. It's silly really. We where walking down the street a few weeks ago and this 'upper class' man and woman walked past and said the lovely N word to us. . Why do it? Also when the thing is I'm neither black nor white, I'm kind of stuck in the middle of things.
With that in thought toady, This picture was pretty on the spot kind of thing, I saw the stuff I used on me then it kind of went from there, it got real messy, but maybe it was worth it, I'm undecieded.
We'll run forever
I can feel the storm inside you
I'll stay with you

I won't even pretend this shot is good. I just liked the colours and soft tones. I had a concept, but I kind of failed to hit it I think. I guess I'm just waiting for that/ a person to reach out and we'll run together.
That is a beautiful picture, I really like it as it is :]
& keep on waiting, it's worth it :]
It didn't matter in the end how old they had been, or that they were girls,
but only that we had loved them and that they hadn't heard us calling,
still do not hear us calling them from out of those rooms where they went to be alone for all time,
and where we will never find the pieces to put them back together.
I really didn't think this image needed edditting at all so I didn't bother even trying, I think I'll ruin it. This image is for me more than anything. This is from last night, 18 of my friends went to the beach and camped under the stars, It was only half planned we basicaly winged it. However it's not stictly allowed but shhh.
I had some really amazing time, we set up a massive beachball net in an windless enclosed area, so it was perfect. We went swimming and played football, they got burnt and I tanned. It was quite amusing. but I hardly slept as we forgot one exra sleeping bad so I volenteered not to have one and slept next to the fire. So I decied to sit on top of a big sand dune and watch the sun rise. It was so beautiful, it makes me appreciate everything!
I also managed to read for the first time in soo soo very long. The two days there can only be described as wow. I think it deserved to be in my 365 as a memory that needed to be kept.
I'm sorry everyone once more but I'm not allowed to post the next image, more blood in it. :) I like using it to much. But here is the description:
I used to live alone before I knew you.
I've seen your flag on the marble arch.
Love is not a victory march,
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah.

i've been listening to Jack's mannequin recently and It brought back the best memories of me going to American for the first time as I was listening to him on the plane. It reminded me of meeting 7 of my cousins who i've never seen before, they were all under 12 but they were amazing then while I was there the 8th was born, and there is soon to be 9, I also met 3 aunties and my Grandads wife Alive. Good times are good. I'm going back in December, I really can't wait. He the man I aspire to be. I miss him. It's almost been two years.
Congratulations to spain for winning the world cup! It was a poor game for a final, a bit of contraverst on that only goal, but whats done it done, the game is over and Spain have one. They deserved it I think. Goodbye world cup, there have been many emotions there thank you South Africa for a very strange but great world cup!
Relieves me from pain
Again and again
I lose all control
Your taking your toll
And i'm no longer sane
Dont be afraid
The love that I show is the love that you made

My hair got so wet during this, it was the first time it had rained for along time so I had to go out in it. But them problem was that I had to have a long walk home with my hair coving my eyes. I could hardly see. Much like how it is in this image. I've been good today, I woke up in the best mood ever, jumped out of bed and cleaned up a bit then sang and danced then went out for this. Good day I think.
I've been tagged 3 times now so I thought I might as well do it here but things I did as a child for my 10 random facts:
1. When I was a child I used to watch and race raindrops as they went down the window while I was on long car journeys.
2. I used to walk past this post everyweek and see how much I have grown that week.
3. I got into my sister cot when she was little and cut her hair. No idea how or why I did it.
4. My earliest memory is in a double pram with my brother when I was bragging about being in the shade while he was in the sun.
5. My dad told me and my brother not to climb this fence, 10 mins later he hears my brother shouting 'daddy' while he is hanging from his tshirt on some barbed wire.
6. I used to play it almost everyday.
7. I was pretty much bullied and left out of things from all the kids in the neibourhood, I had one friend there we hanged out all the time.
8. I walked to school everyday, rain, snow or freezing cold.
9. I remember what my ex step dad did to my little brother. .
10. the first time I went to a theme park I went on the same rollarcoaster almost 50 times (not an exageration) in a row, I had the worst headache ever and could not move for awhile after that and laid on some grass for ages.
Not much edditting went into this, just a tiny crop and thats it. This is from the other day when we went to the beach, this person was our cheff, this was actually cooked on a grill that was placed on top of our camp fire. Ingenious.
I'm quite annoyed at the moment, an annoymous person wrote something horrible on my friend Annie's formspring, saying how she is ugly and should hurt herself and calling her horrid things. I don't unstand why someone would say that and just try to destroy someones self esteem.
Thank you so much everyone, who follows me. It means alot.
Thank you! You could easily have my ability, just go out there take lots of pictures, it's the only way to improve. :)
I'm not 100% sure what you mean by the soft effect, I'd have to know what picture your talking about, but the newest one I have posted, that was just about the exposure and the light on his head mixxing with the smoke. But in generaly, you have to edit a picture to give it more of a soft look, unless the image is slightly over exposed, then that gives a soft look. Sorry if that wasn't any help.
I keep meaning to but I never get round to it and I never know what to take pictures of - and when I do they always turn out the same and stuff.
Yeah that was good help actually. Like one of the ones I mean is like this;
It just seems, softer? I really love that effect but I never know how to do it myself.
& with the exposure and stuff, I always try and play around with that but I can never make the pictures look good and I always confuse myself with it. Lol.

I thought you might of met that one. Yeah that one is over exposed and the day I took that one, it was very bright and I had a shutter speed of 1/1600 with an f/ 1.4 just to get better backround blur. I took it in Raw then adjusted the settings, exposure - blacks fill light, etc. Then usex selective colouring to get the bright - soft feel. But it's getting the balance of not to dark and not to bright is the hard part. :) and thats just abotu how I got the effect.
This is from a church march through London, it was amazing! We had so much fun, just a great chilled out even with some great music. Everyone really enjoyed it, including the spectators. There were so many people with camera's and how many people were smiling, it was something I'm glad I didn't miss. :)
Oh how they differ but we'll make them meet
See she's got ambitions, and I've got visions
She's doing hers, I'm doing mine
Keep telling her that we'll be fine
To my friend who Is falling away from me; I know she won't read this but I wanted to say I miss you, It been long since you've simply asked how I am, I miss the times when you would ask without me talking to you first. I was always there for you when you were down and needed someone to talk too, now that your souring with only happiness on your horizon, there is no time for me. I'm okay with that, I want you to keep going; keep life and love in your sights and never come down. Oh to be free; flying high what a beautiful notion. I'm happy for you and I miss you.
