Why I love blue

psychofactz:



In fact, the popular word to describe something in a bragging manner has its first written use in the 1596 play A Midsummer Night’s Dream! The quote of the original usage is as follows from character, Puck: “What hempen homespuns have we swaggering here?” There are even earlier occurrences that may have to do with the word dating back farther before Shakespeare to the 1300s! But what can you do with this newfound knowledge? The next time your English teacher complains on how kids speak to one another, you can give that teacher a lesson on the history and evolution on this word we use so commonly today!

One of the most common questions I get is what camera I use to take my pictures. I use a Nikon D40 DSLR that my dad passed down to me when he upgraded to a bigger camera.
I’m don’t know much about photography, I just like to take pictures haha;; It’s considered an entry-level DSLR, so it’s easy to use and pretty darn fool-proof. The photos come out great most the time, but I always process them on PS anyways. There’s an automatic setting where the camera does the focusing for you, but there’s a manual option also. Of course, it’s larger and heavier than point-and-shoots, but it’s considered pretty small among other DSLRs. I believe it retails at around $400-600 online. 
I’ve never used any other DSLRs before, so I can’t compare mine to others. But I would definitely recommend this model if anyone is looking to invest in a nice camera!

Friends are always asking me for Tumblr art blog suggestions, so I thought I would put together a list of my favorites to share with all of you!   I’ve tried to break these down as simply as possible, with “Art” meaning blogs featuring works from all sorts of artists (like FBB) and “Artist” meaning individual artist blogs (which may include more than just the personal work of the artist).  I’ve also included some of my favorite visual inspiration Tumblrs, too.
