Bow wave

On the shore of Lake Michigan with my Chicago girl.




The waves were enormous that day; they were regularly washing over the path that lines the shore.

With the magic of double exposure (I took a picture of a wave on top of a picture of her), it looks kinda like she and the lens are being drenched by a bow wave. A happy analogue accident.




Oh, and these were the shoes I mentioned, the ones we had to hunt down so I could be taller than her.

  5. Ha, I would DIE in heels like that. They do look great though, especially with those tights.
    And that picture is completely awesome. It kind of looks like she's staring at the camera in shock as it gets thoroughly soaked...

    geekspawn - it's phonny cause she and I thought they were SO trashy, but now they don't look that bad.

    Jenica - yeah, hate shoes that don't let you bend your ankles. > < my poor tights still haven't recovered from the velvet-rain stains of that day...

  11. hmmm....not really. haven't seen those in awhile. a lot of the students are pretty trendy, i guess they wear whatever is "in" these days, which are mostly boots over skinny jeans. :)
