Beauty in the Little Things
I decided to take a stroll through my own back yard a few days ago and try some photography. I love taking pictures. I was the girl with the friends who always groaned and covered their faces whenever I'd pull out my camera because I always had it with me. I was even fortunate enough to take a class in college on black and white photography. I hadn't done anything "artistic," since college, however. So I thought it was time to try something new!
These images are photoshopped to resemble "through the lens" photographs. It's a method of photography in which a digital camera is aimed looking through a vintage camera to get that old, scratchy, over saturated sort of image. I find such photographs to be really beautiful.
Here are some more examples of through the lens photography via Flickr!
