Future

As I graduate high school I know in my future I will pursue higher education. Naturally I took a picture of books, and my parents since it represents my inspiration for the future.

Food

Like everyone else I absolutely love the healthier taki’s from trader joe’s. So when I found these ranch version ones I was excited to try it out. The texture is overall thicker and has a lighter flavor than I expected. I think I’d rate it 7/10.

Small vs. Large

 I was stumped on what to do for this prompt until I discovered a small hot sauce bottle we had. It’s comical the size difference between the siracha sauce bottle and the mini tobasco one.

exit

Since I’m currently doing a documentary on the Los Altos History Museum I take a lot of time wandering the area.This barn door is always on my way out to the car after filming or meetings. It makes me think about the old days I would’ve been scared stiff to reach out to find interviewees, …

Stranger

At Cuesta Park there was a woman enjoying her day watching people pass by. She wore a green and red saree, with a calm expression, relaxed shoulders towards me. She didn’t need a phone to entertain her, nature was enough on that Tuesday morning f6.3 ISO100 1/195 50mm

One of my simple pleasures is perfume, I enjoy attaching scents to memories and discovering new sensations. While I do buy lots of sample sets, I obviously don’t like every scent.

Golden Hour

Golden hour is a special time in my backyard, this plant is called a bird of paradise. It’s big leaves are to capture light and maximize it’s potential for growth in typically tropical environments. It captures the light beautifully, making quite the sight to see from the kitchen.

eyes

Whenever I look into my dad’s eyes, I get jealous that I didn’t inherit his green eyes. However, sometimes I remember how my grandma, when arguing with her sister, was always told her eyes looked like pickles in milk. So maybe not inheriting those light iris was a good thing after all.

water

I remember the first time my mom knew I had allergies and needed bottled water for my sinus rinse, she bought so much water in bulk. It felt like we were about to enter an apocalypse. It’s always funny going in the garage and seeing the piles of water bottles awaiting for use.

White Balance

Since taking a picture in AWB is quite easy, I figured I should take a picture of simplicity. Thankfully after winter the persimmon tree becomes lively with bright leaves and captues light beautifully. I look forward for the autumn when the stunning orange fruits come to be shared.
