*Polas Inspired by my friend and pola queen, Susannah Conway.
Yellow shines with optimism, enlightenment and happiness. Shades of golden yellow carry the promise of a positive future. Yellow will advance from surrounding colors and instill optimism and energy, as well as spark creative thoughts.
Even though I am absolutely frustrated with the SX70 'lemon' I got on Ebay, I still carry it in my bag every single day.
Even though the images almost always come out overexposed (regardless of me dialing it all to dark or adding filter), I still keep shooting with it, believing that it will get better somehow... Or perhaps that I will get better at it...
Even though it sucks to get a bad shot, the good ones, make up for it.
Even though most pics are only blurry bright squares, I still love them all, and keep them in a little box on top my dresser. A collection of mistakes and failures. Lessons. Tiny tales of hope.
Life is full of disappointment. Very true. But still, I could never give up on it. Despite the setbacks, the turns, the sorrows... Each day I find myself wanting to open up more, risk more, try again, over and over....
I'm convinced that it is through that tiny crack of optimism that love seeps in.
