These two amazing people are off to graduate school in a couple of months.  Sara will be heading to Law School and Sabah will be heading to an MBA program.  We spent the afternoon walking around downtown Durham and Duke.  I took photos of them just being themselves and showing how much they care about each other.  They are really cute together.

On Saturday I had the privilege of photographing some very beautiful cupcakes.  It was torture.  I gave up sugar for Lent so I could look but not devour.  The Night Kitchen is now open for business.  Heather, one of the amazing bakers of these concoctions, gave me a couple to bring home to Rich.  He said they were amazing.  He REALLY liked the chocolate with peanut butter frosting.  Here is a picture of one of the cutest, in my opinion...

I spent Sunday driving around Durham taking photographs.  It is a really good idea to do this every once in a while just for the fun of it.  It reminds me why I love photography so much. A lot of photographers actually organize photo walks. A photo walk is just like it sounds; a group of photographers walking around taking photos.  I found my new favorite place in Durham on Sunday..... but it is a little creepy to get there.  This is the entrance:

Finally a foggy morning and a wide enough angle lens.  I have been trying to take this shot for over a year now.  I tried with my 50mm but it just wasn't wide enough.  It cut off the top of the Suntrust buiding or the bottom of the bull.  Once I had the right lens we went months without getting a foggy morning.  Then when we did get a foggy morning I had to rush off to work.  The stars just aligned for me.  Yay!  Yesterday my boss asked me to come in a little late, which gave me preanty of time to run downtown to take it.  So.... What do you think?

 

I also took this one which I am somewhat undecided on.  I have tried many view points on this tower and still have not gotten the perfect one.  I guess I want more in the background and there just isn't anything there.  Maybe I need to wait for a nice sunset...  Well, in this one I tried satisfying my need for more by putting something in front of the tower.
