happy new year!

Happy New Year! Who is ready for 2015? This year has gone by so quickly! So much has happened and so much hasn’t… that was on my mental list of to-do’s! I am hoping for a better 2015 and motivation to get started on some personal projects that have been on the back burner for a while. One of them is to do a little more street photography which I really do enjoy. During my trip to India this year, I purchased a Fujifilm camera that I have been using sporadically. Most of the images in this post were created from it!
A little before Christmas, my son and I took the train to the city to spend some time in the downtown San Francisco Union Square area. As a student, I lived closed to the area but didn’t really spend time enjoying the festivities of the area. Too much homework? On that beautiful day, the city was lit up and festive with the magnificent tree in the square. We managed to get in a bit of pre-Christmas shopping at the Puma and Uniqlo stores before heading down to the square. Take the boy shopping to his favorite stores and he is a happy camper! The photos in part were also inspired by my contribution to the Five Minute Project. Currently, the project is showcasing a collaboration of eight artists from around the globe with the holiday theme. In other news, I was invited to join Clickin Moms as a pro and will be sharing my work in their daily project.
