After having almost a three hour delay coming home yesterday, I am shocked that I managed to wake up early. I guess my brain is still on London time no matter how little sleep I get. During the delay, the flight home and this morning my mind has drifted back to this lovely trip. I […]

A bittersweet ending
The last few days have required a lot of people saying how tired they are or how they can not wait to go back home. So many of my peers are homesick and connecting family or friends in their free time. Most of them want pictures of their pets. However, I do not want to […]
A Magical Photography Day
More magic was made today along with many photos. The day started off at two lectures. One lecture was with David Anderson. David is a Scottish commercial photographer who mainly works with portraiture. However, he did not talk about his portraiture. He focused on an alcohol project he did for Shackleton. His photography is aesthetically […]
Magic in Edinburgh
The beginning of the day started off in Manchester Airport where everything seemed unorganized and hectic. I thought it was a start off to a bad day besides the strawberry lemonade I had from Costa. The flight was short and so was our bus to the hotel. Our hotel is very small but has a […]
High Tech in MediaCity
Today’s schedule was a blast from the past. While I am a photographer and not a media or film major, going to MediaCity UK brought back many memories to me. In high school, I was part of the theatre crew where I worked with the lighting and sounds boards. The first place we went to […]
Beatle Mania
I will admit I am not a Beatle’s fan. I knew that some days on the trip would not be as fun as others, and for me that was today. However, I do respect The Beatle’s and their influence on the world. As a One Direction fan, there were always comparisons to The Beatles and […]
Shakespeare’s Stratford
This morning I had to say goodbye to my lovely hotel room and head through the streets of Stratford Upon Avon. The agenda for to this morning was to see everything Shakespeare before heading on a bus to Liverpool. I have seen many different places related to him and people in his life. We started […]
Influences of Windsor
The first day outside of London required a decent amount of traveling on a bus. First, we had to drive an hour to Windsor and then two hours from Windsor to Stratford Upon Avon. The Windsor Castle was a nice start to a relaxing day. The Windsor Castle was the most informative part of […]
Fashion in London
The last day of London was long. It was filled with a jammed back itinerary at Hearst UK and then was spent doing some last minute shopping. Also, I saw where Freddie Mercury lived and had some lovely cookie dough. Wherever I went, I was always surrounded by well dressed people. Fashion is a huge […]
A Rainy British but Italian Day
Today’s agenda seemed a lot more hectic when looking at the schedule. My class had to wake up early for today’s lectures. The first lecture was Battenhall. Battenhall is a popular PR agency who is quite different than the rest. The lecture was intense and long due to all the different people who talked but […]
