today was one of those days...

I don't really know if you can call this a failure, but I'm just not happy with it. Whenever I finish a picture I love, the feeling I experience is incredible...but I don't feel that with this one. I guess I'm at the point where I have to push myself much further. I really want to go far with my work so I can only learn from this picture and go out again tomorrow :) 
My battery died right after this picture, which was so annoying :/ I probably could've got something with a better perspective if I had more time. I don't like how my body falls outside of the frame.

This is an edited still from the stopmotion video I'm working on. It's about having life in the palm of your hands, and confronting fear/insecurity.

 To me, strength is holding on to yourself no matter how far you fall.

Things happen in life, and parts of you fade away. The only thing that always sticks is what makes you, and what completes you. Eventually, it helps bring back those parts you lost. 

ohhh photography...where will you take me? 

how did you get to where you are today? I love hearing stories. They're so inspirational and just what a lot of us 'youngsters' (gahh hate that word) need. Add me on my flickr and flickr mail me :) www.flickr.com/carolinegos

 Those Autumn Days
When I take pictures, I'm in my little world and I block out all the bad.
Autumn days and bitter-sweet memories. They all hit me.

Sometimes I wish I could just get stuck in my world and think. I can't even describe the feeling. I could have all the people in the world stare at me and I'd still be dreaming, thinking.
Today I ran around in my victorian dress in a forest at 6am, and some floral workers drove in circles around me with their truck. Best part is, I didn't even care :P I know what I'm doing and I know what I love. Anyway, I couldn't really blame them :P hahaa.


I don't portray myself in my photos. It's more like taking aspects of my life, my emotions and creating a story lived by this character you see in every one of my pictures. I understand this girl's story, I am this girl's story, but she's acting it out for me.


My concepts don't always relate to me. I'm just so inspired by how much we don't know. There's so much going on in the world that we have no idea about and sometimes I wonder how far life can take us. Our imagination can take us to place far beyond reach. We don't have the ability to know everything, but we have the ability to imagine everything.
