There were more in the area, up to maybe 100 or so, but it was difficult to establish a firm count, given how spread out the whales were.

“Photography for me has to do with time and my perception of time”.
“The first day that I spent with a camera I recognised that being completely focused and connected to a scene seemed to slow time”

There are some sights that are just too beautiful for words. Like the view from Glacier Point overlooking Half Dome in Yosemite National Park.

Oh, this is so gorgeous! I know this exact spot, but of course, my photos from there look nothing like this!

“So my amazing daughter, Emma, turned 5 last month, and I had been searching everywhere for new-creative inspiration for her 5yr pictures. I noticed quite a pattern of so many young girls dressing up as beautiful Disney Princesses, no matter where I looked 95% of the “ideas” were the “How to’s” of how to dress your little girl like a Disney Princess…We chose 5 women (five amazing and strong women), as it was her 5th birthday but there are thousands of unbelievable women (and girls) who have beat the odds and fought (and still fight) for their equal rights all over the world”
- Jaime Moore, Not Just a Girl
So awesome!

In love with this video. I hope he puts together a book of all his photography. I would buy it in an instant!

Just a whole lot of random stuff, but mostly photos, kittens, travel... A dash of politics (sometimes more than a dash), feminism, world views, animals, nature, books... Whatever catches my eye. I am a bit flighty. (A bit?)
