The park near home.... A walking distance paradise


I have been going on this 2 mile walk at the park down the road from my house for five 5 years now, and I would often imagine taking photos at several spots while walking the trail. And guess what? Today was the day that I decided to be brave and start taking photos outside with mother's nature light and filter! Not sure how long this is going to last but I'm up for challenge especially if the photos are going to be as nice as this shot. Tired after the shoot but well worth it!

Riding in Style......


When I came across this black & white vintage photo I was floored not only because of the story behind it but what she was wearing to ride her Rollfast bike. The dress couldn't be any more perfect, I assumed the color of the dress was navy blue with big white buttons and hat was also white.

Her parents got her this Rollfast bike to make the 2-mile trip to high school and she was so grateful, as money was scarce in 1938.
