I don't usually post on Saturdays. A girl needs her beauty rest ya know! But this girl also likes to meet new people, and today is the day to do it. For the second year I'm participating in Vicki's "Grow Your Blog" party at 2 Bags Full. And it starts today. On a Saturday. So I'm here. Glad to meet ya. Beauty rest be damned!
"Just Moi and My Little Friend"
I'm Kath...
wife, mom, daughter, sister, friend, photographer, chauffeur, dork, reality show junkie, shoe maven, frequent flier mile collector, deprived and at times depraved traveller (only because I can't get enough of it!), baseball fanatic, list maker, Philly gal, patience challenged, gym rat, always looking for a new black hole of obsession to jump into, hates change, embraces change... surprisingly confusing to the Better Half.
I'm just Moi youse guys! Tag along for photos and ramblings of a Philly gal. Take the photos seriously, the meanderings...not so much. Afterall, I'm a mom. I'm use to not being taken seriously, SOMETIMES.

(the following are photos taken in the Fall that I never got around to posting. If you looked out my window right now? All you'd see is white.
And some trash cans the neighbors forgot to bring in!)
And some trash cans the neighbors forgot to bring in!)
I have been accused of noticing things others often don't. I like that. Makes me feel like Superwoman. IF she carried a Canon. The boots? Yep, we both kinda like those too.
Gonna be honest with you. I never know what I'm going to blog about. I have no plan. I let my photographs kinda guide my journey. I'm along for the ride. EXCEPT, I don't criticize where my camera leads me. The Better-Half can't say the same thing when HE is driving. Sorry honey. It's just one of the many endearing qualities he LOVES about moi. My three Things? They really don't have a choice...they are stuck with me.
What do I like to photograph? I COULD tell ya landscapes, street scenes, architecture, candids, nature, travel, everyday life, black and white. And guess what? I'd be right! Why limit myself?

ReplyDeleteKathy this post cracked me up! You are so blatantly honest it ridiculously funny! Love the pics & drooling because it's so much better than my snow view. Thanks for posting warmth instead of the snow & cold we're forced to endure right now. Happy Saturday!

Gorgeous photography! Definitely going to follow you.;) I love to to take pictures, too, and it KILLS me when I have to be the driver. The other day we passed a field full of baby cows- precious! By the time I got situated with my camera-in a good location- they started walking away. Mom cows head for the hills as soon as I park my car. Boo. If I'm not reading, I'm taking pictures. No better way to spend a car trip.;) Do stop by my blog as I have a great giveaway going on for the Grow Your Blog party. Oh, and feel free to follow me, too.:) Lori
ReplyDeleteHello from another 'grow your blog' participant. I hope you're enjoying this party as much as I do. Love your photography!
ReplyDeleteEvalina, This and that...
Your photos are amazing! I have some photos as well in my blog, but from my travels and not at all as artistic as yours...
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely be following you ;)
Enjoy the GYB party!

ReplyDeleteYour blog and photography are gorgeous!! I'm so happy to have met you through the GYB party. I'll be back often to visit. xoxo Silke
ReplyDeleteLove the bridge photos, very nice. Do you do much post processing?
ReplyDeleteHi Brooke. I try to not utilize too much processing for the most part. My "go to" recipe is adjusting levels and sharpening...then I like to use Florabella's ColorPlay actions and will utilize the "subtle color" feature. That's about it.
DeleteI just love your graffiti post! That image of Queen E made my day!! Your blog is one of those that stand out amongst the 600. Hettienne
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy,
ReplyDeleteI'm visiting via the gyb party. I just loved looking at all your photographs and learning more about you.
Visiting from the blog hop and having a great time. Love your pictures, especially in London. Someday I'm going to get a passport too! I love my Canon, and love getting different perspective, but not nearly as good as you are. Thanks for sharing, I will be back-yes, it's a threat.
ReplyDeleteGloriousness!
ReplyDeleteI like it here.
