Blogger of the week: OwlFeathers

Tuesday 30 March 10 07:27
This week we had a chat with the brains and beauty behind the masterpiece OwlFeathers about photography, sounds and the 50’s.


What inspired you to start blogging?
Well, it started about a year ago when I suddenly had enough time to bring out my camera and start taking tons of pictures. I enjoyed looking at them but they weren't doing me any good sitting in a folder in my computer. I wanted to get them out there, and I wanted to hear what other people thought. I knew other photographers at the time who where talking about blogging their work. So, I signed up and started blogging and I’m more than happy I did.

Describe yourself with 3 words:
Curious, Airy, and Open

If you could travel in time, where would you go?
I would love to see the 50s time period with my own eyes. The fashion, the simple life, the soda fountains, drive in movies, and the beautiful cars. If I had to pick a time in the past, I would defiantly go there.

We absolutely love your pictures, where do you find your inspiration?
Everyday life and beauty. I like the idea of taking something you see everyday and making you see it in a whole new light. I feel everything has a meaning. And everything natural is beautiful.

Is the glass half full or half empty?
Who cares? Just drink up.

What are your favorite blogs?

Photography blogs, Photoshop Blogs, Web Design Blogs, Graphic Design Blogs - anything and everything. I love learning new things. I know I don't know everything and if I get a chance to learn first hand from someone who knows more than me, I'll take the opportunity.

If your house caught fire and you only had time to save one piece of clothing, what would it be?
I guess my tan plaid long button up shirt. Because that's something my boyfriend bought me when he was here to visit me for four days.

Finish the following sentence: I love the sound of______
birds singing in the morning.

What do you wish you had more time for?
Traveling and friends. I’m a full time college student right now, and between going to classes, speeches, presentations, meetings, photography and staying in touch with my boyfriend online - my social life is null. And I wish I could spend all my savings on that round trip flight to everywhere, but at the end of the day, I’m too tired to be tired.

Top 3 favorite songs/bands:
Here we go again - Ok Go, All songs by The Script, Where Ever You Will Go - The Calling

What are you looking forward to most this year?
Many things. This summer Im planning to see my boyfriend in Florida for a few weeks and then in august Im transferring to University of Montevallo to peruse my education. Im majoring in graphic design and majoring in photography. 2010 is my year for sure.

And finally, what makes your blog stand out?
That it's my own. I don't try to hide anything; I’ve never felt the need to. I want to see other people for who they are, so I would expect others want to see me for who I really am as well.
