Rainbow City

I love wandering around Downtown taking pictures. I wouldn't go as far as to call it Urban Exploration because I don't know anything about any of the buildings or their history or things like that you're supposed to know.

I do however love gritty alleys and buildings clustered in a skyline.

Not that this picture is gritty. At all. But you know what I mean.

Taking the bus after getting out of Summerfest (or any large city festival I would imagine) is always good times. Nothing like being cramped into a small space with loud drunk people. And even better you can feel the collected weight weighing down the bus. That way you get to enjoy the fun for longer.

I really have no idea how often is acceptable to post to this blog. Too much or too little? Do I care? Maybe not.

The Creds

Allow me to exemplify my photo-whore-ishness. In case anyone was wondering or cared.

(I like how I'm talking as if this blog had an audience already).

The Mission

Dearest You,

I'm in an English Class at the University of Milwaukee Wisconsin that focuses on blogging. This is the blog I have created for it. Obviously.

I'm almost ready to call it a day seeing how I spent like five minutes coming up with my cute pun of a blog name. And like half an hour making far-to-small-to-notice changes in the colours to my blog. But oh well. I'm a Graphic Design major so the little things like that bug me. And to make them stop buggin me I must control control them.

The only real goal for this blog is to post images that I like. Which is an astoundingly vague mission statement. Something tells me it may narrow itself into narrower, yet likely dissonant categories.

I take lots of pictures myself (on my digital camera) but that's not necessarily all I'm interested in posting. I've had my camera for 13 months now and I've taken almost 15,000 pictures. I love to document life. Me. My friends. School. Work. Anything, everywhere, and anyone in-between. Then the pictures go up on Facebook in albums organized by week of the year. They shall rue the day they made photo space limitless.

Maybe the same will happen here. Maybe it won't. We'll see what happens.

Hugs & Puppies,
AVP
