Orange Roses/Black Limbs
I can't believe my good fortune. I am so grateful to be a Black woman. I would be jealous if I were anything else. - Maya Angelou

When I went through the photos I was going to select for this post, I had two main thoughts.
Starting Over
Although these photos aren't really of anything. They don't necessarily show you anything or tell you anything or do anything for you, they're of great sentimental value to me.
Vinilo Record Store
You ever just do things for the aesthetic? You just do it for the visuals, what it's going to look like at the end? I do and this shoot was a product of that.

On this particular day, I used my camera on three separate occasions. This was one of them.
West Quay Light Display
I'm quite light sensitive, I don't like light or too much light. And I definitely don't like bog standard lights. You know that yellow white bulb colour? I hate it. It's headache inducing.
Reminscence
I've been mass producing these blog posts for about two days now, and I realised that I have a lot of photos of flowers but that's not the point of this post.
Trickery
I went through a phase of questioning how can I change my work? How can I improve it? Make it look or feel different. And I consulted Google and found loads of techniques and things that you could do that will sell dreams and provide illusions with basic stuff you'd find at home. So I did exactly that.
Study
People always have that thing or things that they really want to do, like visit a certain country or go on a specific ride at a theme park or watch something in the theatre. And I'm sure most creatives or people in their respective fields, have goals/dreams/ambitions/ something that they want to accomplish within their area. The below photos were something I wanted to do as a photographer: a study.
Looking Back
Looking back or anything synonymous to this phrase often has negative connotations. Like the whole idea that you're not focused on the present or you're holding onto something in your past/dwelling in the past etc. but there are times when it is advised. There are times when it is healthy and beneficial to look back and that is what this post is attempting to celebrate.
Home
I feel like everything should have a place. A certain space where it can sit comfortably because it belongs there: a home. I've been looking for a home.
