Passenger.

My friend Jasper introduced me to this band 'Passenger' that he had heard while at Pete's Ridge - a New Years festival.
I have to say, I am in love. Not with Jasper or the festival, obviously. But this simple, honest music feels like it's reading out something my heart should've spoken a long time ago. I just wish the songs went for longer. And perhaps that I learnt how to whistle.

Round this Caravan
and watch the flames take all you own"

Layers and Photoshop.




As I was looking through randy blogs like I do everyday I found some really beautiful layered images.
I like how they add depth to a simple picture and it really makes you able to say something without trying too hard to get it across.

So I've been playing around with my photoshop (Corel Paint Shop Pro X2) and kinda taught myself how to do layers. I'm only learning but I thought you might like to see what I came up with.




Then while on a friend of a friend's facebook, I got inspired by her mother naturey photos and came up with the following. I just haven't asked her permission or shown her the final result, because honestly, I don't know how she'lll respond. So technically,
for all all intents and purposes, this image doesn't exist :')
