Here & There

I'm completely captivated by Katie Shapiro's photographs. I saw her entry in the 2009 Hey, Hot Shot! project and now I can't get these images off my mind. They are beautifully composed, thought provoking and full of life. It's hard to not stare at that funky looking tree...love it. Check out more on her website and great blog Only Diptychs.

Oh, and I got a new car...YAY! I decided on a silver Honda Civic Coupe. I'm very happy with the decision and I think the Civic suits me well. Thanks for all your input and have a great weekend! I'm heading to Ikea on Saturday to enjoy a little shopping inspiration and Swedish meatballs. I'll bring ya back some Lingonberry jam...
