My Passion

Hi everyone!

Today I really want to write about my passion which is photography. 
I have been quite stressed lately (mostly because my finals are coming and I am not ready!) and I found out that a nice way to relax is to go on a short walk. I live right down a hill and a forest, so I just walk for about 45 minutes in the forest to calm down. 
Now I don't really like just strolling around, so I have found a way to make it more special. I take my IPod for some music and my camera with me and anywhere that I see a nice shot I take it. I don't really care if the lighting is perfect or the quality is amazing, I just want to capture the moment. 

This passion for photography is not something from the past few months. I have always loved to capture things; from rocks to shells, from tickets to business cards and slowly I took the camera from my father more and more to capture pictures while we were hiking or on vacation. 
Later my parents decided to give me my own little camera and I loved taking photos with that little thing. Since then I have upgraded a bit, but I still love that camera to make pictures with. 
Like I said, I don't really need the best quality, I enjoy a photo from an old crappy camera or my phone just as much. 

I also enjoy taking pictures of nature and landscapes more than pictures of people. To me they are way more interesting and every time you look at them, you see something new. 

Anyways, that was all I wanted to say about photography (for now).

I will leave you with some of my newest ones:

I hope you enjoyed it and leave a comment about your passion or hobby.
Also if you have any tips for me about blogging or photography, leave them in the comments :)

P.S. The camera I have used to make most of these photos is my dads Sony A200. I am planning on buying my own Canon so I can use it more often and hopefully learn and improve.

Who Am I?

Last night I realized that I had never introduced myself and that I just started writing at some point.

So here you have 21 facts about me:

1. My name is Laetitia.
