This morning we went to Mt Macedon and it was incredible! It's only a 35 minute drive away from my house, but it felt like one of those little quiet towns you drive hours and hours to get to. It was all foggy since it was one of the first cold days in Melbourne. It felt like we were in a cloud and ahhhh. Beautiful.
ANYWAY: This post has nothing to do with that :)
Mum cooked some fried mock duck from the Asian grocers. The texture resembled the fat from meat and the skin was freakingly similar. It was an interesting experience, but one I will hopefully never try again.
Ashleigh and I watched The Last Song. Disregarding Miley Cyrus' strange facial expressions, the annoying little boy and the abundance of crying girls in the audience, it was pretty good. There were tear-jerking worthy moments every 10 seconds... srsly.
I've got around 200 photos of magical-ness to edit.. new post soon, I promise :)

Urgh I'm a horrible blogger. I have to get my roll of film developed soon and our car is being repaired, so that sucks. There were two moths stuck on our window and it was quite beautiful. Then my cat took the washing off the line, mum rushed out the door and squished the moth on a bush and it twitched and fell on the floor..
I don't get why they're just.. there.. somebody please explain?

Second roll from Smile's camera which I took a week ago. I got myself a Canon A-1 with a 50mm 1:4 lens after much deliberation. By the way, www.keh.com is the shit, guys (but also pretty damn slow).
I can't wait to start taking photos with him! I named him Oliver and he's a beauty. He has that gorgeous old camera smell, as well. Let's make camera marriage legal, now :)
Here are some photos taken with Fujifilm Superia ASA 400:
I tried to save this one, but it came out horribly overexposed. Maybe cause it was the first on the roll? I don't know.
I made the poor thing stand like that for a while to ensure I got the focus right. His smile slowly faded.
Pancake is a pain to take photos of, sometimes. I really like the colours in this, though.
I will live in an apartment in the city with one kid and a cat. I will do whatever I want, travel by skateboard and earn 100 million a year. Bring it on.
I couldn't help myself.
This is my baby, which I don't play nearly enough. His name is Bernard.
We went to Altona beach again and the water was clear and beautiful. (Why the eff is there blood in the water?!)
Check out the boy jumping. I didn't even realise there were people there. I love when this happens :)
