{my attempt to capture 52 photos that represent joy - my word for 2010}
i've been taking a lot of photos of balloons this week; i wanted a few fun shots for a project. there is just something magical about watching them blow in the wind, full of color and fun.
plus, i was playing with photoshop and liked the colors in this version. for some reason, they make me think of summer and the boardwalk and polaroids.
pure joy.










there is such joy in balloons i love them! simple fun

I love this one. There's a strange flatness to the space that I really respond to, and the colors seem really unusual for the subject matter. I totally mean this all in a good way -- this is a favorite for me!
