Big *SIGH*

So it's been over a month since we got here, and even though I love it here and have been doing a bit of diving...I'm finding myself a bit bored.

I got so used to going to work at the dive shop almost every day for a long while, and now that I don't have that, I find myself impatient and well, lonely. I'm a very social person, and it's hard for me to drag around my only human interaction during the day (my three year old princess) and pretend I am completely fine.

I really miss being able to meet other photographer's (I've had little luck getting that together here sadly). I would love just to meet some here and make some friends and hopefully network a little. I miss shooting other people too, badly. I really enjoy meeting clients and taking portraits.

For now, I'm shooting the 30 day challenge (which I post on my facebook daily: https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/K-R-Bernot-Photography/145906697487). We are on day 9 now, and I'm having fun with it. :)  I've also been dragging my camera along on my canoe trips up the Sante Fe here in High Springs. It's just beautiful! There are so many turtles and birds, it's like a nature photographer's dream! 

In other news, I am trying to get involved in teaching crochet at a shop in historic Alachua down the street. I'm also putting together more projects for the farmers market here in town. I should be ready by October!

I'll leave with a parting shot from my last canoe trip. This turtle just sat and sat until we were right up on it! Amazing!
