  2. Sometimes it is best to just leave life as we've originally seen it -- this is evidence without a doubt!

  5. They are indeed perfect. I suspect that ordinarily, you don't change too much anyway. :)

  11. I like when you do that!

    I have noticed here in blogland how each of us who weild the camera on a daily basis and play around with it.. have a definite style we lean into. You tend towards softening and muting colors some... add textures too... Even your fonts are soft... almost a whisper, including color.

    I tend to ortonish or bolden the colors, soften the edges sometimes..and always skirt away from textures... preferring not to take too much away from "what it is". Because I'm chicken with textures, that's really why.
