My name is Sarah and I am easily distracted...

My name is Sarah from Live in Imagination and I am easily distracted by the beauty in nature.

I really enjoy being outside observing nature. I am most distracted by trees and flowers. I love trees and the way that each one is different yet they are still beautiful. Here are a few pictures of my favorite trees.

I am even distracted by the trees without leaves. I think those are my favorite, maybe because they are the only type of trees I can draw.

Flowers are also unique and visually striking. I could spend all day in my mother’s flower garden; it’s the perfect place to read a good book. Here are some of my favorite flowers.


I love the vibrant colors and details visible in these flowers.

Thanks,

Sarah

My name is Brittni and I am easily distracted...

Hi there!

I am so happy to be guest posting while Rhianne is off enjoying herself! My name is Brittni and I am a 23 year old girl with a teaching certificate and no permanent teaching job (yet!). My blog is all about life and  personal style. Stop by and say hello!


Now on to the post topic- what distracts me.
Rather.. what doesn't distract me?
I also am easily distracted like Rhianne.

When I have something important to do,
these are the things you can find me doing instead:

Talking to my dog. Man's BFF, Chip. 

Engaging in random crafty endeavors: sewing, crocheting, etc.

Baking!

Scouting out sparkley lovelies such as these.

You can also find me browsing on Blogger, Pinterest, and of course Anthro!

My name is Erin and I am easily distracted...

Hello, Rhianne's lovely readers! I'm Erin from Pughs' News, and I'm happy to be here keeping you company while Rhianne takes a little holiday.

If you've ever visited my blog {and I'd love it if you did}, you'll know that I am a list girl. They help to keep me organized, and writing them just makes me happy! Today I'm making a list of the things that distract me on a regular basis.

Dreaming of Paris

Reading good books

A cup {or two} of tea

Writing letters {and watching my mailbox for replies!}

Fresh cut flowers


Memories of London {where hubby's from}

Collecting quotes... isn't this one perfect?

My noisy, adorable boys

There's more {I am very easily distracted}, but those two I just mentioned are demanding my attention! I'd better go see what's up.

Come visit me at Pughs News sometime soon, and we'll chat...

My name is Jennifer and I am easily distracted...

I'm an American girl living in Europe. I have a blog here, where I write about all of my adventures and travels. But I'm getting ahead of myself, am I not? First things first -- a proper introduction.

My name is Jennifer and I am easily distracted. Don't believe me? Here are few examples.


Sometimes, I get out my camera to take a picture and then, after discovering a brand new (to me) setting, my plans for the night quickly shift from "dinner and a movie with friends" to "photoshoot in the street with friends". But hey, saves money, right?


In December, when I'm decorating the Christmas tree with my mom or sisters, I stop and marvel over each ornament - remembering its story, laughing at how ridiculously homemade it looks, etc. I can spend hours decorating that tree; I welcome each little distraction and find a branch to hang it on.


Every morning when I get dressed, I spend way too long choosing an outfit. Just when I think I'm done deciding, I pick up a new piece of clothing from the floor of my closet (yes, unfortunately, a lot of my clothes end up on the floor of my closet), say to myself, "Oh, maybe I should wear this instead!" and my outfit progress for the day restarts to square 1. Does this happen to any one else?


An assortment of frames hang on my wall for decorational purposes but lately I've realized they exist to distract me as well. It's really easy to stare at photos of family and friends you miss from home; especially when you feel like procrastinating (and I'm really good at procrastinating).


Puppies. I'll stop whatever I'm doing if it means playing with a puppy. As opposed to Americans, Europeans can bring their pets virtually wherever they go (on the bus, in a cafe, in a clothing store, etc.) which means all the more puppy playtime for me!

My name is Susan and I am easily distracted...

by music.

Every part of my day has a soundtrack, be it radio, my iPod, Spotify, in concert halls, film soundtracks, car CD player. I absolutely love photography and enjoy blogging over at Eye to the Viewfinder, but music will always be my first love.


I almost always have my Diana Mini in my bag, It’ s the perfect size to whip out at a moment’s notice, be it to take a sneaky shot at a show, or to snap a busker on the pier. I get very distracted by buskers, especially around the main shopping areas in Dublin. I can easily pass half an hour listening to them (the good ones),


I used to spend hours playing the piano when I was younger, mostly to avoid studying, but time would slip by without me even noticing. I don’t have the time to practice for hours anymore, but I still love retreating into my bubble, on the piano stool, with music on the page just waiting to be played.


I’ m so distracted by music that I get to work with it all day long, and hear beautiful live music.

My name is Katie and I am easily distracted...

Hi my name is Katie from Curating Cuteness and I am easily distracted by...

…my crafting hobbies! Seriously, once you pick up something, it's a never-ending journey of discovering new crafts to dabble in! Here are some of crafty things that are going on my to-do list (I admit, some have been there forever).

P.S. Clicking on each image brings you to their original source!


Crochet a pillow case.


Sew up a doll.


Paint in watercolors.


Knit a pair of socks.


Repurpose a vintage piece of furniture/clothing.


Learn to make gemstone jewelry.


Shoot some b&w film. (No, this really isn't a craft hobby but I just couldn't resist adding this to the list, considering that I just picked up a vintage Yashica!)


What are some crafts (or non-crafts, doesn't matter!) you've been wanting to try?

xoxo,
Katie from Curating Cuteness

My name is Gali and I am easily distracted...

My name is Gali (and cloned here) and I am
rather easily distracted by predictably the same things all the time,
all the while wishing that I would get distracted by writing my
doctoral thesis... alas that never seems to happen. But hey,
distractions are good, they're a good way to stay sane.

Things to get distracted by...

...culinary experiments.

(making raw "sushi" using cauliflower "rice")

...nature.

(Arbre de Judée - Judas Tree. In bloom right
after all the lovely yellow Mimosa is gone.)


...other things that distract me so much that I forget to clean the
dust off the scanner.


(Chinon CX.)

...travels.

(Juhannus on Jeju-do.)

...soviet bricks that still will follow me everywhere.

(Zenit-E/Agfa100 - les calanques - January 1st, 2011.)

...happy accidents.

(Chinon CX/Fuji200 - Christmas dinner.)

...life!

My name is Michelle and I am easily distracted...

hello everybody, i am michelle, of michelle + march, a little blog where i jot down my adventures in analogue photography. when i started my blog last year, rhianne's blog was one of the first few that i came across, bookmarked and have been reading religiously ever since! this is my first time doing a guest post and for a blog as well loved as rhianne's, i am a tad nervous!

so yes, one of my major distractions is my film cameras but today i wanted to share another photography distraction - iPhone photography apps! if i don't have a camera with me, i usually have my iphone and i use it to capture little pieces of my life. right now i have at least 10 apps on my phone but i am still constantly checking the app store for new releases.

here are my top three favourite apps!

1) cross process

cross process is a sweet and simple photo app to have on your phone! there are five filters, the red, green, blue, basic and extreme, for you to manipulate between. you can choose either one or all five to be used. the app also has the option of borders, which i think gives the pictures a more polished look. i love using the red filter to jazz up otherwise ordinary pictures.


basic + red filter


shadows taken at night, with the red filter.

extreme + blue filters

2) pudding camera

the pudding camera app is developed by a korean company but don't be put off by the korean alphabets because this app is amazing. it's also very easy to navigate. there's 8 types of lens (including panorama, fisheye, quad and action) which will produce different sizes of pictures and 8 films (including vintage brown, monochrome, noir and vivid). it also has a little dial for you to set the exposure. the images that it produces are gorgeous!

fisheye cam + noir film

fantasy cam + vivid film

panorama cam + noir film

panorama cam + vivid film

3) shakeit

my very first camera app! i got this because i was amazed at the concept of shaking the iphone for the photo to "develop". technically you don't have to shake it but i like to do it to watch the reactions of people around me and to do it just for the sheer fun of it! this is the least complicated app, all you have to do is choose the type of frame and off you go shooting. there's a polaroid type frame, simple border or frame-less.

i hope you enjoyed me sharing my favourite photo apps and the photographs produced by them. if you have any other apps to recommend, i would love to hear them! :)
