I thought I'd do a quick blog post before leaving the country. I'm taking off for Spain and Italy for ten days, so I may have some very different skyline photos available very soon! I'm a little nervous about the travel since I've never been on an international flight (heck, I haven't been out of the Midwest since the 8th grade when I went to D.C.). However, I'm very excited to have some new photography opportunities. Nebraska has its own beauty, but it'll be nice to see something different from the norm.
Anyway, if I have the time, cool photos should be forthcoming!

May 7, 2014
Well, I have a little time on my hands and a few different pictures to share. Ever since I got a smart phone, it's been much easier to take pictures "on the go". Here are a few I took around Lincoln when I didn't have my real camera handy.
Most of these were taken within the last week or so, but some are a tad older. Today I haven't been outside much because it's uncomfortably hot. It's around 97 degrees, which is so different that last year at this time. Last year, I graduated in 30-something degree temps, and this year it's consistently in the 70's and 80's. I wish I could be mad, but I'm actually not disappointed that weather caused my classmate and me to miss having a real graduation ceremony. I was pretty over college by that point, and I wasn't keen on listening to boring speakers and hundreds of names... Looks like weather won't be a factor this year. I can't remember, but I think graduation ceremonies will take place either at Pinnacle Bank Arena or Devaney.
As you can probably tell from the square nature of the photos, these are from Instagram. My Instagram is private, but very few of the photos are personal, so I don't mind sharing them.
Anyway, there may be a few more posts out of me in the next couple weeks. Some may even be pictures of a Spain skyline. I'm on Week 2 of my three week gap between work and my grad school program, and at the beginning of June I'm going on a [mostly] free trip to Spain! I'm so excited to be able to go to somewhere with photo opportunities. I do my best in Nebraska, but sometimes there's only so much you can do with flat land and small town scenery.
Back to my three week break, I quit a tad early because I actually thought my program started earlier, but I was at a high level of hatred with my lab tech job, so I didn't even try to extend my stay even when I found out. It's been very odd having "college-level" free time again. I was so used to ten-hour days and cramming as much into weekends as I possibly could that it's been bizarre to catch up on movies, go for walks, read, take pictures, see friends/family, and get a decent amount of sleep. I'm enjoying it while it lasts because I know the craziness will start again soon...
