June has almost slipped through my fingers and all I have motivation to do is read (and read and read) and go to the pool. These next few weeks will be madness and I'm not ready to let go of these lazy summer days quite yet.
At the end of every month, I always have a small collection of leftover photographs. They're hidden deep in the depths of a folder, never having seen the light of day. Usually I leave them be and look at them from time to time, but these images wiggled their way into my heart and I couldn't ignore their silent plea to be heard before the month is out. So here are the forgotten frames, the misfits that never quite fit into earlier blog posts. They're happy now, and so am I. (and yes, I make a bond with each of my photos. just call me crazy)
How is summer faring for you?


oooohh I love all these photos! These are absolutly stunning! I love the one of you a lot! Great job! I like these misfits LOL
ReplyDeletelove all of these photos...you photograph life so well! i agree...my motivation here is to go to the pool and read (and chase my little guy around) ;) have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI especially love the waffle shot... so crisp and lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove this! That last picture is amazing! =)
ReplyDeleteLove these! I love putting all of my left over photographs together and saving them to find other leftovers that go with them perfectly.
ReplyDelete"I make a bond with each of my photos."
ReplyDeleteyesyesyes. that's how to do it best.

Your leftover photos are the best :)
ReplyDeleteStunning, stunning, stunning. And I know how ya feel. I just can't let go of some pictures. They grab at you and don't let go. They're so special.

ReplyDeleteLove them! The one of the moon and the one of the mirror are my favorites!! =D
ReplyDeletei love all of these. so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, your mom's hair is amazing. :) Second of all, I was going to tell you that I liked the third, fifth... and so on the best, but I realized that really I love all of the pictures so much. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, I love your style of photography. The waffle picture brings a warmth over me, it reminds me of cold cozy mornings.
ReplyDeleteThe last one is my favorite! Love it!!
ReplyDeletelovely photos Carlotta. the last is so simple and just plain beautiful. <3
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of your two sisters, it's so soft but beautiful, it shows the sister bond they have. And that lobster claw one is amazing. :)
ReplyDeleteThe waffle one is my favorite. :)
ReplyDeleteMy summer is going excellently, thank you for asking! I'm going to Germany next week - my first time overseas.
CRAZY.
ReplyDeleteokay, just kidding. seriously though - I understand. I'm not a photographer, but I am a writer, and I do the same thing with every sentence I piece together. I have a hard time purging my papers and documents and various journals. for my own sake, I cannot.
anyways, these photos are, as always, lovely and beautiful and inspiring and such. :]
feeling lots of happy free summer vibes!
ReplyDeleteI love your sunglasses where did you get them?!?!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are great. I can always come away from a post inspired in the beauty of everyday life. You make me so glad that its summer!
I do the same thing...I have forgotten pictures that just sit there, but I go back every once and a while and play around with them, editing and stuff. They take up way too much space on my computer and its getting near time for me to pay attention to them again. Of course your forgotten photos are so much cooler than mine, but hey you've gotta start somewhere right? ;)
Thanks for posting!
thanks! they're from target. :)
DeleteI am simply in love with #8! It looks like you photographed the sea & the sky, out-of-focus. <3
ReplyDeleteeve @ essence of eve
i'm so glad you dug these out of the folder. 'cause they deserve to see the light of day.
ReplyDeletelove the one of the moon, the girl with the hat, and the waffles. looks like something out of kinfolk. <3
ohmyword. photos that are forgotten are indeed some of the best ever taken. the random moments captured that are just on your memory card, not part of any event or photoshoot are the best.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love all your pictures. You are so talented with your way with words and your photography. Totally jealous.
ReplyDeleteI dont know if you do this but maybe you could make a tutorial or tell me of a good tutorial on how to upload your favicon to work.. I've had no luck.. I'm not a complete beginner at HTMLs but i cant get it to work..
Much love. Natalia.
