The Blower’s Daughter

"Falling slowly, eyes that know meAnd I can't go backAnd moods that take me and erase meAnd I'm painted blackWell, you have suffered enoughAnd warred with yourselfIt's time that you won Take this sinking boat and point it homeWe've still got timeRaise your hopeful voice, you have a choice  You've made it now" Falling Slowly - Glen [...]

Raven’s Call

I was thinking this morning about how I feel. Like, really feel. Over the last few weeks, I've stopped, on more than one occasion, to really assess how I feel in myself.

 Well, this is a little bit different for me! I'm really getting into the Halloween spirit with a load of items from Salem featured in the blog today. I've been learning some new techniques and playing around with more buttons and sliders in camera raw when editing photos and I'm pretty pleased with the results for [...]
