3rd Annual Worldwide Kelby Photowalk

This was my first time ever participating in a photowalk. This was the 3rd Annual Worldwide Kelby Photowalk. I went to the one that was in Fells Point. All shots are from 9am-11am. It was like the worlds hottest day. I took a peppermint hydrosol and rose water blend in a spray bottle to keep me somewhat cool, and of course plenty drinking water.






I did about 95% of the walk with my shoes off, because I just felt more comfortable that way. Maybe it wasn't the smartest decision one could make, but I survived unscathed.  














 



 







These are only some of the photos. The rest are posted on Flickr.

POW-WOW. Native American Festival

July 18, 2010

So before I went off to Artscape, I stopped by the Fairgrounds for the 36th Annual Pow-wow.  I had never been before, and I thought it would be something nice to check out. Here are a few photos I snapped from the event.

















Artscape 2010

Day 1: July 17, 2010

OMG.
I had such a blast at Artscape. I went both Saturday and Sunday. It was so relaxing to walk around and take in all the arts. I loved it. Every moment of it. Despite the heat. Pure bliss.

Saturday I got there just in time for A Taste of Ladies Verse, a spoken word theatrical performance by Poetry for the People Baltimore.




















Afterwards, it was still some light left out so I walked around looking for the art cars but got lost in all the visual art there that I didn't make it there until the sun was down. I was so intrigued I forgot to take photos of most of it, but here are a few of my favorites:







This piece of the lady with the fro rocked! Love it!

And then finally made it to the cars after many stops along the way. 
FYI: the toothpaste car was by far my favorite!








































Day 2- July 18, 2010

I came back this time I wanted to bring my daughter so she would enjoy the art...and she did! We did. So much so that I decided to make a short video to commemorate it. Like to see it? Here it goes:






Because the video is not super clear: here are a few of the photos (plus some) as well:




I was so glad to see they were recycling!! And composting!
