My awesome friend J. has placed in two different photo contests, one for Islands magaize, and one for Caribbean Travel + Life.
I was so excited when I found the second on on the newsstand at Borders. I immediately bought a copy and flipped to her photos. My favorite is this one:
The colors are so beautiful. I kinda want to knit something with those colors now. And I love the almost Japanese look to the photo. It's just amazing.
So yeah, this one is definitely going into my inspiration file.
Now girlfriend.......you knew I'd think this post was interesting!! bwahahahahahahah.....thanky ma'am!!
