‘’perfect’’ I whispered to myself, my wet converses squelching along the narrow alley of the back-skirts of California,

I’d prefer not drawing any attention to myself, but with a lot of observation this deserted never ending path was always… deserted.

Mr. Allen had on occasion praised my work, but wanted more. He wanted me to risk more often and climb out of the enclosed safe confinements of my neutral park settings,

Photography, it was my life and dream. Maybe to become an inspiring worldwide praised photographer, I had had this aspiring dream ever since I was 11. The adorning idea to have my work scattered across nature magazines, my name in big bold letters.

Lame? Yeah I know.

I understand my dream is something original and completely out of the ordinary, but what more can you get with a nature photographer? I had thought about the idea to be a model photographer

Maybe in the future work for the likes of Vogue and take endless pictures of the likes of Paramore and The Civil Twilight.

But photography is the only carrier I would be willing to strive in, my endless collection of Nikon camera’s and the latest most censored HD zooms would tell you that without a description.

The endless reel of fascinating features that you would more-likely walk past on a busy road, it interested me to an extent where I would never attempt to escape.

‘’an hour’’ I shuffled to the ground gently fixing my camera on my lap and under my hoodie as the rain only came down stronger, drenching me along with the poor choice of foot attire.

California’s weather always managed to surprise me, the faint droplets of rain warm and the air as mutual.

I steadied myself for the next hour, a sunset would soon rise and I wanted to catch it in full bloom, the contrast of dropping water would only make it even more original and I knew this couldn’t be even more out of my comfort zone.

I was used to the likes of mid-day in a full park of sunbathing American’s and the annoying ring of ice-cream trucks and hot-dog stands, or even the random visit to the fair, to get a clear contrast view of the Ferris wheel and the moon hanging like a cotton bus to its right.

My God this better be worth it.
