I found this post amusing for some reason.

Style and Composition

This is what I would wear if I spent a lot more on my wardrobe, if I knew where to find clothes that look like this, if I could shed my american apparel hoodie that has been my staple for the past five years…

Possibly, I thought, posting the style I’d like to have somewhere—developing a collection of images of clothing that I find aesthetically pleasing, would inspire me to go out and find my own style. I like to look at images— to photograph what I see, and also to look at images captured by others, therefore, it should follow that I would like to present myself in a manner that would follow that which pleases me.

Admittedly, the image above does not just please me because the model has a style that I could picture myself inhabiting. The muted tones and composition are also pleasing. I like the fact that the background is washed out, and hardly visible. I like the color of the floor and the model’s reflection on it.

Foxes Jumping on my Trampoline (by Samron)

We lived for many years in a remote nook of the Utah desert where we developed a taste for isolated places and geological oddities. So Iceland was the perfect place for us.
