Usually the first comment I get is, "You did that?" My usual response, "Yeah. I did that."Spencerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11136078046185361358noreply@blogger.comBlogger41100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5146832127287276996.post-17070704137960268622010-08-04T20:29:00.000-07:002010-08-04T20:35:45.090-07:00I decided to continue this blog.

That's why there haven't been many posts on her. It served its purpose...<div><br /></div><div></div><div>I ran into my cousin Aaron and his wife a Pita Jungle a couple days ago. I hadn't seen him in a while and it was good to catch up. He asked me if I was still into photography. I realized that many of the pictures I take just stay saved in my computer or on Mom's fridge. I decided to start posting them on this blog.</div><div></div><div><br /></div><div>Here are two to start off with. I reduced the size to make then easier to publish. They are both <em>really</em> big images. I also added a watermark.

As I was coming up with the design, I looked at her closet and all the clothes in it. She had bright pinks, purples, blues and greens.
