I'm listening to the Glee version of Katy Perry's Firework on repeat right now. Jaime is not pleased.
42/365: Happy Birthday
This might be my favorite picture of Jaime. I love how the light from the candle illuminates his face {nope, there was no flash used here}. I love the plates off to the right, just waiting for cake, and I love the shadow that is coming off of the cake.
43/365: Stairway to...the Path
I'm not sure what's up with that green lighting, I actually really don't like this picture at all. I don't want to talk about it, I just don't like it. I had terrible pictures from this day. Ugh.
44/365: The iPhone arrives.
Jaime's arrived. Mine came a day later. It was only fitting that my picture of the day was the new phone. It's the best.thing.ever. Even though this picture is a little yellow-y. I need to get better lighting in my apartment.
45/365: Smokin
It's a little unnerving when you walk out of your building and see a plume of smoke. Luckily, it was just some construction in the middle of the street. 
46/365: iPhoneography
This is my first official post that includes a picture that was not taken with my Nikon D40 and I'm OK with that. Apparently there is a HUGE cult-like following of iPhoneographers. Google it, I'm not lying. This was taken using an app called Hipstamatic. It's from the Forever 21 in Times Square. I went there with Christen after work last night...they have a cab on the bottom {4th} floor. It's weird, I had to take a picture.
47/365: Blue
L.O.V.E.
Ok fine. If you click on the picture to make it bigger, the water tower and the building are both blurry, and there's a little bit of grain in there. {istillneedtolearnhowtotakenonflashpicturesatnightitsnotmyfault}
BUT. I am slightly obsessed with water towers in the city, I think they make great photo subjects. I also really like the way the sky looks, and the interesting-ness going on with the light spots. Open the picture bigger and you can see what I'm talking about in the upper left and then again with a line going down the right side. Even though it's far from a technically perfect picture...it might be one of my favorites to date.
In other news, I booked a photography class for next weekend. Yay. It's run by Panasonic, and I actually bought it on Living Social {a Groupon-like site}. It's three hours and it's on location at Grand Central. I'm really excited. I think I can get some good shots and hopefully learn a little too. I'll have a separate post that week to let you know how it goes!
