It's an odd carry over process for me, transferring the activities I have enjoyed so much over the past two years of globe trotting. I have stopped taking photographs like I used to, as, in my mind, it's associated with travel. I've stopped blogging, given the same reason. Recently, though, I've really felt the pull back to these activities. My two lives (life pre-travel and life post-enlightenment) are merging together, and I love the person I have become.
That said, I have begun to explore the more creative aspect of both photography and the written word. My photographs are more experimental, utilizing the complicated array of manual controls that my camera offers. I have begun to explore poetry as well, and, although I haven't begun to write my own yet, I really enjoy reading various authors' work.
Chicago is a wonderful city, full of enticing art and fantastic scenes just brimming with energy and emotion. My [pre-mature] New Years resolution is to really concentrate on capturing the city in photos, and record and explore my experience here.
Starting now.

Live it. Love it. Check out peeps like Kelly Purkey and some if the others I have listed alongside my blog. None of them top "Amy, world traveler" but you'll show them how to do it.
