fooled you, didn’t i? you thought because it was august 6th and i had no photos that i wasn’t participating. this was all a cleverly designed trick…

day 1

i thought it was only fitting that my first photo be a gift from my friend that
originally introduced the idea of the august break to me.
Kim sent this to me last year, and i love it. it hangs in my corner of me things, above my dresser.

day 2

another gift, from the actress. i can’t remember if i posted about this one
in last year’s august break, but the text reads, “she learned to cup
possibility in her hands”. it reminds me every day to try not to be afraid.

day 3 

a stack of quarters. playing with aperture on my camera.

day 4 

part of the reason for my late start is having some amazing guests in town.
we spent a long, hot, fun day down at coney island, and this is one of the trash
cans on the boardwalk.

day 5

my necklaces, hanging from a stand my friend jamie got me a few christmases ago.

day 6 

 beach moss, growing on the wood before the jetty, coney island.
