Photnograf

Well check that out! It’s the very first photnograph! That is the camera I shoot things with. Those are the hands I touch things with. Don’t worry, I wash them before I eat.

Well hello Photies!

My name is Corinne Tobias and I’m an amateur photographer with a heart of gold (that’s what I want on my tombstone). One night I had a dream. And in that dream I had a forum to share photos, information, and photographic stories. Voila Photnograf! If a picture is worth 1,000 words, then imagine what a long winded writer can do with an image. I’d like to use this lovely blog to create fictional stories for some of my pictures. I’d like to share non-fictional stories that describe them as well. I’d like to mix the two together and see what crazy mixed up madness ensues.

But right now, I’d like to say welcome! It’s a pleasure to have you here this evening/morning/whenever you’re reading this. I’m sure you’re dying to know who I am, what I like and if I’m single and ready to mingle. So I’ll give you those answers and more…

Like I said earlier, Corinne’s the name and taking photos is my game. I’m steadily learning the tricks of the trade. I’ve been a food blogger for years, so most of my pictures happen to also be my dinners. Or should that be the other way around? I don’t eat pictures, if that’s what you were thinking. I’m a blogger by trade and I currently blog about things like yoga, education news, natural health and the best online universities.

I take interest in yoga, the outdoors, cooking, baking, reading and traveling. I have a rich inner life and I try to see the world like the first time I saw Avatar in 3D. I like to be amazed by everything and tend to think of everything as one of the wonders of the world. With that said, my personal life is nothing like Avatar in 3D.

Right now, it’s mostly like watching Coraline in 3D on acid. A month ago, I left someone I loved. I made the grand gesture of moving hundreds of miles away to forget about that person. Strangely enough, I still love him. So, yes, I am single. No, I am not ready to mingle. This is a picture of him naked…

Just kidding! Anywho, life is a confusing, embittering mess. But I’m not here to complain about it. I’m here to document it.

I look forward to embarking on a lovely photo/word journey this year. I’d love to see your photos and hear your stories so feel free to comment and leave your contact info. Please add this blog to your RSS feed as well, so that these shots don’t end up in the dark.
