in.fragilities

come with me for a walk in my garden. smell the roses, wipe the tears off the dew-laden branches. whisper secrets in my ear, to be shared only with the blossoms and the bees. drink the sun-warmed nectar and bathe in golden light…

…and i’ll show you my world.

I’ve been a food blogger for what feels like a long time now, almost 4 years. But my photographic interests have gone beyond food, although delicious crumbs and morsels certainly still feature heavily in my work. But I’m keen to learn more and expand my photographic knowledge. This is my attempt. This is my blog.

about me…

My name is Christina, but I prefer Chris, if you will. I’m in my early twenties and have a hopeless tendency for procrastination. Singing, twirling in the rain, cooking, chocolate and the other half all make me smile. Just don’t ask me to drive.

I’ve been blogging since early high school, although much of the earlier material is embarrassing and has been confined to the depths of the internet cache, hopefully never to be resurrected again. I’ve been interested in photography for the last 4 years or so, but have only really sought to improve recently.

about in.fragilities

The prefix ‘in‘ can be used in two contexts.

Invaluable, infamous - colloquially, the prefix enhances the original word, making something so valuable it is beyond value. And that’s one side of me – the fragile child, whose world is so easily shattered by a word or even the passing of the clouds over the sun.

But there is also independent and indescribable…and so the opposite of fragility, strength, might be attained. Can photography do that? Perhaps. At the very least, I hope to bring something of that dichotomy, and of my life, out in my pictures.

So pull up a chair, and I’ll provide something sweet to eat, and maybe something cool to drink. See the world how I see it…and don’t mind if the dog licks your feet.

.Taste.   .See.   .Listen.
