This week I experimented taking polaroids with different colors.
I felt the greenish color gave me a nostalgic feel, don't you think?

I took the majority of these photos at the LA county fair; the rest
are from my wandering around Downtown Los Angeles.

Since I am considering getting a tattoo, I thought it would be fun
and a good idea to get a temporary henna tattoo at the fair. Over
the last few days I've been able to see what it would be like to have
one on my arm and so far, I'm liking the idea of having one there. I
would want a sparrow similar to this one, minus the crazy dots
and squiggles.

It's been very liberating not having to use photoshop for polaroids.
The same goes with the photo above.

I hope all of you have a great Labor Day weekend <3

Aw that's a good idea to get a henna one first! Looks pretty :) I love these photos, they seems so far removed from my world, even the words "county fair" sound exciting to me lol! I really need to visit LA some day, just following your blog has made me feel I just must!

Guess why I'm broke Brenda? Because I bought tickets to a festival where Fleet Foxes are playing! How weird and wonderful that we'll both be seeing them some time this year :)

I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better :)

The last photo is stunning, what a lovely moment! Somehow all of these make it seem like the world has just STOPPED for you to take a picture of it.

Are you really getting a tattoo?? I think the sparrow, or birds in general as tatts are so beautiful. IF you really do get one, I'd be excited to see how it turns out!
