three sixty five. england and italy.

So my return to blogging didn’t go as awesomely as planned… heaps of people didn’t fall on their knees, immensely grateful that I graced this blog with my presence.  In fact, I got all of one comment yesterday… Cammy I love you. :)

And so it is. But, since it’s summer vacation and I have, oh, really, NOTHING going on… we’ll see if I can get back into this blogging groove. And what better way to start than by catching up with my project 365 pictures. I think I’m like 3 tragic weeks behind, but to maintain order, I’m going to keep doing them week by week. So here’s week 23.

one fifty five | happy fence friday, uk editionday one fifty five – happy fence friday, uk edition. For the wedding I attended, we ended up staying the weekend at this really nice hotel, that had some great grounds. Friday evening, while everyone was having drinks (and yes, so was I), I wandered around with my camera and found a fence. See, even in England I’m thinking about dang flickr groups like Fence Friday!

one fifty six | happily ever afterday one fifty six – happily ever after. I don’t have many pictures from the actual wedding because we weren’t ALLOWED to take pictures, so this shot was while the couple was posing for pictures for the professional photographer. I love the groom’s pose, with his hands behind his back, and I love the bride’s look. And I love her dress.

one fifty seven | simplicityday one fifty seven – simplicity. Freaking cop out shot. What happened was, the day after the wedding we went back to the parents of the bride’s house for tea and and an Indian buffet… and we ended up just talking and talking until it got late. And I think I was all photographed out from the wedding that this was the only picture I shot. Ah well.

one fifty eight | london bridge is...day one fifty eight – london bridge is… Actually I’ve been informed that this is Tower Bridge, not London Bridge. Either way, I like how it looks in front of the sun.

one fifty nine | buranoday one fifty nine – burano. Italy!!  This is a little island called Burano, a short water bus ride away from Venice, and it is well known for it’s brightly colored buildings. I thought it was absolutely beautiful and was convinced I was in heaven. I was, wasn’t I?

one sixty | high tideday one sixty – high tide. St. Mark’s Square, in Venice. My brother and I had got done meeting up with some random Australian guys that were on our tour, and they had been drinking (sadly, I just watched for the most part) and we crossed by and found this sight. We were so excited to see St. Mark’s Square flooding and I was just in love with the reflections.

one sixty one | night falls...day one sixty one – night falls… Our first night in Rome, my brother signed us up for a tour down the Tiber River. Or so I thought. Actually it was a dinner cruise. And all they served was seafood, which I don’t eat. Anyway, at one point they stopped the boat in the middle of the river and everyone was wondering why they did that. So you could take pictures, of course!

And that’s the end of week 23.

  • Comments come, and comments go. Make sure you focus on blogging because you WANT to and not because you WANT people to comment. Just a tip from a blogging vet to another.

    Loving your new photos, big time!
  • Amanda
    Gorgeous work, as usual! And the pic from Burano makes me feel like you were in CANDY LAND! Simply precious!

    If it makes you feel any better...I have missed you too (I believe I commented on the previous, previous post...) If not, then I meant to..Ha!

    Post more often, darn it ;)
  • Bluebelle
    I didn't comment because I've had a busy week and haven't been online much at all but Ari, it is SO GOOD to see you back! I'm squeezing this online session in before dinner so I look forward to catching up on your photos soon! :)

    Hi Ari,

    I read the post yesterday, but didn't comment ... sorry. As for your pictures, I really like the colorful buildings in Italy. It looks like you will have some good memories from your trip.
  • And I love you too! :)

    Your Italy pics are just gorgeous! Ah, I am seriously jealous. I have to, have to get there someday. Oh and I love the bride and groom pic. They look so happy!
  • Ahh, this makes me want to book the next flight to Europe. Gorgeous pics! I love the one of Burano—I definitely say you were in heaven.

    My D90 arrived four days ago, and I can't wait to go on a photo hunt. I just have to find the time.
  • I basically am in love with all these pictures. It even makes me, someone who has no desire whatsoever to travel, want to go new places. Also, the bride's dress is ADORABLE - I've always thought about having a wedding dress with a bit of color in it, and since I love pink, I'm totally loving that dress!
  • Generally, I find that people won't comment unless they disagree with you or you do something incredible. I'll admit, I didn't comment to your earlier post yesterday because I didn't feel I had much to contribute. However...I will say that you reminded me that I needed to be more active in my own blogging (my personal blogging). Despite your hiccup...I'm proud of you for continuation of your 365. As you probably figured out, mine went by the wayside. I could throw a bunch of excuses out there...but the one and only reason is that I don't have the motivation that you do. And for that, I am somewhat jealous.

    Bottom line...I'm glad you're posting stuff again. It wasn't that long ago that I was in your shoes. I'm glad that I'm past it (as I'm sure you understand) - but those were some of the most memorable times of my life.

    Welcome back. Hope you stay for a while.

    Cheers,

    Travis
