April 8, 2014

Howdy!

Well, it's finally starting to get pretty and nice outside, so I'm hoping I'll have better scenery to photograph sometime very soon.  The grass is really trying to fill in, and that's the most exciting part of spring.  The transition from ugly, dead brown to vivid green improves my mood tenfold.  I think the color green must be the true source of happiness...

A couple nights ago I managed to get a cool panorama up by the new Pinnacle Bank Arena in the Haymarket area of Lincoln.  Since I was on foot, I wasn't willing to wait around until sunset.  Walking home in the dark when you're a girl, even in a relatively safe town, is not particularly comfortable.

Going into late spring and summer, I'll be starting a graduate program and leaving my current job.  Working in a commercial lab really hasn't been paying off (in a financial OR personal fulfillment sense), and I decided to reroute my career.  It remains to be seen whether I'll have more or less time for photography, blogging, and other fun stuff this summer.  It's been a bummer how little photography I've done over the past year or so.  Those 10-hour days at work have been stealing all my daylight!
