Nine.

SO I promise I had a wonderfully full and eventful weekend, and that's why I totally ignored my new commitment to myself.  Sometimes it just feels good to ignore a commitment to yourself.  Especially when hormones are raging.  It especially feels good to ignore a commitment to yourself while hormones are raging, and there is no end in sight, and no victory to be won.  Until there's ice cream or nachos in sight, that's pretty much how it goes down.  To be fair, I ditched my yoga class in conjunction with ditching out on my blog.

BUT I did take my crazy, out of control Friday, and ran around with my camera.  Or rather, Eryn Chiu Neff ran around, and I photographed her.  Here's just one image, that comes from my inspirational idea of where I've been, and where I am now.  Granted, I don't run around in high heels, but boy do I love making my friends feel the pain for my own glory!

This idea originated from my assignment in film class (notice how I went digital instead) that is all about studying motion.  The fun part about this shoot with Eryn, is that I was able to take many of the photographs sequentially, leading Eryn to say, as she flipped through these fabulous images, "It's amazing what the human body can do."  I think that's just another testament to the genius ideas of Eadweard Muybridge, who photographed the first action photographs!  Check out this awesome study of human movement!

This incredible wonder, the ability to stop motion took photographers to amazing places!  It lead me straight to this wonderfully girly and inspirational photograph by fashion photographer Richard Avedon. It's a little bit girly... but a little bit more "Wonder Woman Goes Shopping."  Gotta love that!
