four clovers.

{but no four leafers}

Just thinking about how lucky I am.

Christopher's finally home from his 5 week stint on the road.

The alone time was much-needed, but the timing of his arrival was just right.

It feels so refreshing to have him with me again.

scenes from home.

a scene from my walk home.

My 5 block walk home from the 34 Trolley.  On 48th Street.  So much beauty if you decide to notice.

More old photos.  Each with their own unique problems, but in every one I see a clearer reflection of what I saw/felt in the moments that they were captured.  At the time that I took these, I made some edits to them that I can only now qualify as "lousy."  Even still, as I looked back on them this evening, I could still see something within the original images that made me remember.

I made some new edits to each of these images this evening, but they still have problems.  Problems that I'm not really all that interested in correcting anymore.  They're all definitely a little different than what I intended at the time, but I can now see the beauty in them.  Finally.  It's been two years since I took these on a gorgeous fall afternoon.  Walking through the neighborhood that I fell in love with.  My neighborhood.
