I've always held an admiration for people who are dedicated to their collections. Rows of perpetually smiling Beanie Babies in the corner of the room; porcelain figures that gleam in the window light; stacks of movie stubs dating to years past; postcards and stamps glued on cardstock pages; concert passes, vintage cameras or thrifted shoes. There is dedication in a group of beloved objects slowly accumulated. There is patience and timelessness. I've always ached for a collection, yearned for one to call my own. After various attempts, I concluded that collecting wasn't for me.
Turns out, I collect photographs, and I think that's
really cool.
p.s. What do you collect?
I love the last one of the water crashing against the rocks :) I collect nutcrackers! I have over 30, and I put them out every year at Christmas :) I also used to collect smashed pennies from the different trips we went on!

Gorgeous, gorgeous photos. I love how people collect things too. It's so interesting to learn about it! I love collecting tea cups and glass vases/cups (to stick things in). And pictures too.
