All of the water shots were taken at Waterfall Gully, a place hidden in the foothills of Adelaide near Mt Lofty. The waterfall is more of a trickle at the moment because we have virtually no water but its still such a beautiful place.

I'm really keen to hear some feedback on these shots so that when i go back i can try to better my work so please, tear my work apart. Tell me what you love and what you hate

Long time no see! Didn't realize how long it's been!

Have been so over whelmed with work and many other things that i havent found time to go through the photos from my trip to Italy. Unfortunately im ill at the moment, which isnt an entirely bad thing coz now ive got plenty of time to edit photos and submit them!

I have a stock pile of deviations to look through, bout 600 or so.. that'll keep me busy! In the mean time hope u enjoy my latest Italian shots. Can assure you there will be more to come!

Will be on here more frequently now, so hopefully i can pick up where i left off with u guys

Take care xo

You will see many photos of Italy appear on my page, though photos cannot explain what it was really like there it gives you a good idea. 2000 photos all up so will need a while to go through them but please keep an eye out, you'll see some amazing stuff you'll never see anywhere else in the world.

so many possibilities...
How am i to reach out and grab one
before the chance is gone?

Forever i search for that answer...

Its fascinating:
One door closes and a new one really does open
Closing a door is the key!

Any advice upon initial stages of bonding with someone of interest would be so appreciated. I need to get more confidence!

Though i'm weary, i can't hide that i'm excited

I'm making a decision that i know has the potential to change the rest of my life. Just wanted to share my excitement with you guys without leading on what exactly it is. Stay tuned for the next update...

I'm back!

Feel like a new me, whose discovered new inspiration. Can't wait to share my new work with everyone

I hated having no time for anything i wanted to do (including dA). To solve this i took a step back and asked myself what i wanted at the moment and what makes me happy. As a result i withdrew from my tafe course, which was making me feel limited and unhappy.

I love my job and im excelling in what i'm doing, which makes it even better! The people there are also some of my best friends

I am making time for what i want to do and for people i want see now and it's fantastic. I feel so free and happier than i have been for such a long time. New things and new people are bringing out the best in me and i've discovered i have more friends and people who care about me than i ever knew.

All that aside, I'm here to share what i love with you guys and for me that's writing and photography. Both mean so much to me, as they're things i can use to convey my own personal experience.

Can't wait to get into all the unread deviations i have waiting for me.

Hope to talk to everyone soon,

Mandy ]]> ~Glazed-Illusion http://Glazed-Illusion.deviantart.com/journal/9880764/ http://Glazed-Illusion.deviantart.com/journal/9880764/ Mon, 28 Aug 2006 04:52:53 PDT
Just wanted to quickly say why i haven't been doing anything on dA over the past month or so.

I guess i could say i have gone through some life changing things in this time frame. I am on the path to self discovery. My life style has changed, my living arrangements have changed and my emotional thoughts have been altered.

I feel like i am walking forward and leaving a part of me behind. It is a good thing, as it is a part of me that i have never liked. A negative, pessimistic individual who couldn't see her own potential and opportunity. I have shed this part of me like a skin, revealing a new one. Being hurt so badly and recovering from it has taught me more than i ever learnt during my 5years at high school. Unfortunate that i have an uncanny ability to learn things the hard way, but hey, since when was life meant to be easy?

I am furthering myself in to a new mind set, one of more optimism and character. I am already seeing the effect it has had on friends around me and it has really opened my eyes as to how much i was making myself miss out on in taking such a negative attitude.

Life is getting easier. I have a concrete job in management, i study my love (writing, which at times has been incredibly hard i might add) and i am spending more time with friends and family. Though my heart has seen some cloudy days, this has been enough to get me through it.

I'm looking at life through a different pair of eyes, though i don't like evrything i see, sometimes you just have to accept it and see what life will throw at you next. As one chapter ends, another begins. Who knows, some of them may be repeated.

In saying this, i wil not be appearing on dA as regularly as i have in the past. It has nothing to do with dA not delivering or anything like that, i simply do not have enough time to spare.

To everyone i have met on here, i will still do my best to see your work but forgive me if it takes some time for me to comment. Thanks for all your comments and advice as well as critique, which has helped shape my work.

goodluck with your photography/writing/art. I hope to be back soon.

I have converted the story to a weird symbolism using robots and machines as a replacement for the student(s) The good side to this is that it gave me some new material to write about. I feel so much that i have lost the will to write at the moment but when you least expect it hey! there you go! I wanna write again.

Sorry if it's hard to understand but hope you enjoy the read, those who dont get scared away by the length of it. ]]> ~Glazed-Illusion http://Glazed-Illusion.deviantart.com/journal/9351659/ http://Glazed-Illusion.deviantart.com/journal/9351659/ Wed, 12 Jul 2006 09:24:20 PDT
I've found a photographer who feels a little unnoticed and unappreciated, even tho he has heaps more page views than me! His work is really great and speaks 4 itself. Popularity doesn't mean anything to him, he just loves what he does. It'd be a shame to miss his work.

So if ya have time drop by and have a look and drop a comment here and there i'm sure he will appreciate it

Hope this gives you a helping hand will, you deserve it!

Thanks sam for a wonderful trip, it meant so much to me to take you to a place that holds some of my fondest childhood memories. Hope the landscape consumed you as much as it did me.

So many adventures and experiences to be had.... awesome photos too!!! Hopefully this is only the beginning
