Friends of Summer

Summer is almost over.  For everyone else that is!  My fun doesn't end until September 24th...  Anyways, I've been trying to make as many plans as possible before everyone leaves, and August has been fun so far.  In the past week or so I've hung out with my friend Kim a lot...  She has a great pool which I always find myself in (sometimes as late as 2am!).  One night I took over my equipment and we set up some pool shots.  The pool lighting makes photos come out very neat.  Here are some shots:

Meri, Kim & I.

I don't have a remote so every picture required me to get out & dry off before I could set the timer again.  Not fun.

Walking on water, kinda.

I'm holding my underwater digital camera in this shot.  We used it to take pictures, but also to illuminate our faces in the long exposure shots.

Like in this photo.

The flash didn't work here but I still like it.

On Sunday we went to see the Hopper exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts.  It was the last day of the exhibit.

And it was sold out.

But we had tickets!  Photography was not allowed inside the exhibit, and I actually followed the rules.  The show was really great - Hopper was an amazing painter and it was so cool to actually see his famous pieces up close and personal.

That night Kim threw a party by the pool.  We had a cake for Naven who happened to be celebrating her birthday - it was very good!

Lighting the candles.

Naven works for Kim's family, she is such an amazing person!  Last year she helped me make a  video for my nutrition class which really helped me out.  You can check it out Here.

Happy Birthday!
