School's out for...

...I so wish I could say "ever" like the song goes but school's only out for today. Yes, that's right, they still DO sometimes come to their senses and declare a SNOW DAY for adults!

Waiting in my email this morning was this message:

Eastern Michigan University is closed due to weather on Feb. 10

I'm doing a happy dance, even if it's only on the inside! I think I want to make a snow person today.

Window Views

Let's face it, wintertime in Michigan means I spend a lot of time indoors. This got me thinking about how much time I spend on the inside looking out--and about the views I see during that time. I decided to do a new photo series called, "Inside Looking Out" or "Views Through My Windows." I'm not sure about the title yet (any opinions?) but I can tell you this has made me look at windows and what I see through them a little differently.

Following are the photos I've taken so far. They are intentionally left in their rough, unfinished state because I want this series to be as it was actually seen, no cropping or beautifying. Likewise, they are intentionally shot with my iPhone camera rather than my Nikon because I want the rough, real-life appearance. Enjoy!
