Red brick

I walk by this complex every day.  And every day I stop to think about how pretty it is.  The tree is usually blooming with bright purple flowers, and I think the red brick is just beautiful.

Project 52 - 2.2

Last post of this week:

ONGOING LIPSTICK PROJECT - Most people know that I love makeup, but my real weakness is lipstick (or any lip product - gloss, balm...).  I am always on the hunt to find the perfect color, texture, etc.  There are still about 5 lipsticks not shown because they are in my purse.  I end up wearing the same few every day.  So I've decided to wear a different lipstick every day.  What's the point in having them if I'm not going to wear them?

I have a ton of pinks, about 8 reds, and a bunch of glosses and balms.

Today:  No7 "Tulip"

Hey, lady...

Messing around with macro photography!  I don't have photoshop on my computer so I add text and effects with photobucket.com.  It's not ideal, but it gets the job done for now.  This is one of my favorite photographs that I've taken, and it was completely random and not planned.  I was showing a friend how awesome the macro lens is and this lady bug wandered by.  The only processing that I did was add text.  

Without text:

What do you think?  With text?  Without? 

Thanks for reading!
