rural + rustic









 

 a collection of lifestyle photos I took while in plymouth.

 I love simple, rural things in life:  hardwood floors etched  with time, plaid dishclothes filtered with holes, going barefoot on delicately-dewed grass, freckles smeared across a little one's face, campfires crackling in the dark, humid smells and pools and lake water, shadows stretched across the floor - quivering in the light, the way a coo 'moo's' and slowly munches grass, film, black and white photographs, and wild flowers. There's something about objects strung and wrapped with time that I love. 

Have a favourite photo in this collection?

  8. Hello Acacia,

    Did you wonder why I haven't commented? No, I'm sure not. I'm not that self-ingradizing to think you would miss my comments.
    But I will tell you where I was gone because I definitely would have commented if I was here. I was off to another Island to help my grandparents.

    But honestly, your blogs is one of my favorites of all times. They way you string words together, effortlessly, yet with such perfection, as to make people feel a certain emotion. It's lovely. Your photography is beautiful, it is like the desert, and your words are the main course. I love reading and looking at your blog.

    "shadows stretched across the floor" You're killing me! It's so good!

    I have to say, my favorite photo is probably the barbed wire. The angle, how the barbed wire goes twisting off into infinity. It's wonderful. But I do love the rocky cliff. It's so cool!

    Love,
    Rebekah
