never have I ever

nevereverI ran across this link up on Kiki's blog and thought hmmm... what would my list be.   I always loved playing this back in school.  You find out so much about a person you didn't know before - even if you thought you knew them really well.  So let's see...

:: Run a marathon or even had any desire to... I have terrible knees so my days of running ended in high school gym class.

:: Been a coffee drinker.  Love the smell, but not the taste. So many deserts get passed up too because they use some kind of espresso or coffee in the mix.  Give me tea all day any day!

:: Seen the Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls or Mount Rushmore.  All are on the list of must sees!

:: Been married.  I just haven't found that guy that I felt I couldn't live without.  Hope to someday though. ;) I have, however, been maid of honor and a bridesmaid more times than you can count! I've even photographed a wedding!

:: Seen the Northern Lights in person.  I hope to change this in 2015!

:: Had a dog as a pet. I'm a cat girl, they are better cuddlers  (is that a real word?) and much lower maintenance.

:: Been scuba diving.  I am horribly claustrophobic and would not do well with this kind of activity.  I would be the one freaking out that the dive guide would have to rescue.  Sad, but true.  I will have to rely on others to tell/show me the beautiful ocean life.

:: Learned the mathematics of photography.  f stops, ISOs and when to use what with what.  I would have been a horrible photographer in the days of film.

:: Been to all 50 states.  I think I should make this a goal.

What's your list?  Join the linky with the button below!

Jan 17 2015 : jump : this was an interesting prompt for me today. A real challenge to be able to take a shot of yourself and jumping. I went down to the beach to see what kind of landscape was down there and actually ended up loving the fact that the mounds of sand covered in snow met the clouds and you could really not tell where One stopped in the other began. IMG_7716.JPGSo then I had another idea of jumping in water puddles, I always see fun pictures of this I wanted to give it ago myself. It proved much more difficult than I had imagined, but I'm pretty happy with this outcome.

opera night

Only a couple of weeks into the year and I've checked off another bucket list item - attend the Lyric Opera here in Chicago.  Check!  One of my friends hit me up mid afternoon saying she had an extra (free) ticket for tonights performance of Anna Bolena, so I jumped at the chance.  It was in Italian, of course, with english subtitles which I found helpful - the only other opera I've seen was IN Italy and also in Italian no subtitles.  I thought they did a great job of using the set, the voices were amazing - the lead actually suffering from a throat infection only made it about 3/4 of the way through before her understudy came in for the last few sets.  Both were outstanding and the transition was pretty seamless - I've never see this happen during a show.  A perfectly delightful way to spend a winter evening. Processed with VSCOcam with f2 presetScreen Shot 2015-01-17 at 8.19.30 PM

Finding Robert Frank, Online - NYTimes.com.  Classic street photography from the 1950s.  Beautiful black and whites!  I kind of wish men still wore top hats, don't you?

Jan 15 2015 : old : my favorite family pic : my grandfather Sloan as a young boy. I love the texture, color, paper and presentation, exposure - it's just so cool. Photography is cool. And, of course, love his little bow tie and knickers.
