My New Photography Blog June 28, 2010
Posted by Emily in : Photography , add a commentI’ve sort of had a blog identity crisis for a while now. Four years ago, I started blogging to journal my crazy experiences living on a deserted island in the middle of the ocean. Everything I wrote about was personal, and I had no idea what an SLR was at the time. Most of my days are just spent following my nose, and as I have done so, I have discovered a love for photography and I find myself wanting to post all my photography shoots and fun tutorials along the way. This has been interesting to some, but my base reader-ship has stemmed from my musings, not my photography. I have found myself conflicted about what to post, what not to post, and trying to keep my blog balanced between my thoughts and my photography projects.
To solve this problem I have started a NEW blog. It will be my photography blog. If you are interested in following my photography blog, you can find it here at http://www.emilylesher.com/photoblog/.
What you will find on my photography blog:
- Double the picture size
- Current shoots
- Tutorials
- Tip and Tricks,
- My professional projects
This blog will remain my “musings” blog where I will post about my family, thoughts, and whatever else pops into my head.
I’m still working out some final details on my blogs, and my website, but to make it easier for you to find me, you can go to www.emilylesher.com and you will be linked up with my website, my photography blog, my musings blog, and my photography facebook page.
I’m sporting a new logo and music, so check it out! Look for a fun giveaway at the end of the week!
Transporting Cars To Saba June 28, 2010
Posted by Emily in : Photography, Saba , 4commentsI ran across a page on facebook which displayed old images from Saba. These pictures were taken 50 years ago (sadly, I don’t know who photographed them) before the road was completely built on the island. Cars are still transported this way today. Well, I don’t know if the locals have to jump in the ocean to pull the boat on canoes, but you get the idea. After a car arrives on Saba, it never leaves. (Unless of course, you imported the only Mini Cooper the island has ever seen, then you do ship it off the island after your 20 month stay.) Cars come to Saba to be driven until duct tape can no longer keep it together.
These are great images. Wish I could give the right person credit for them. Saba hasn’t changed much in 50 years, the island (and the people) look exactly the same, except I remember it in vivid color. :)
