five faves: june 2016

(one)

My sweet photographer friends Xanthe & Andrea both share their five favourite photographs they take every month -- isn't that a great habit?  Not just because it inspires fans like me from a technical photography perspective (and really, they're just so talented), but I imagine that the practice of going through their archives to look at their images more critically to pick their favourites helps them get better as well.  

And so, of course, I'm copying them.  

These are my favourite photographs that I took in June.  For the record, I've made a new pact to shoot with my dSLR every day and share them on Instagram.  So if you'd like to see some of these shots as they're taken all month long, be sure to follow me over there.

Have a great week, friends.  (And if you're in America, happy Independence Day -- have fun and stay safe!)
