Hi, my name is Rachael Ashe. I am a visual artist, currently living in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
I am a photographer and mixed-media artist. I work with everything from pinhole cameras to toy cameras, and film to digital.
My blog showcases some of my favourite works, and is an ongoing exploration of my development as an artist.

This morning I feel as if I could use a little extra sleep, even though I went to bed at a reasonable hour last night. Sometimes I think I feel more tired after going to bed early, than I do when I don’t get enough sleep. As long as I don’t yawn too much during my mid-day meeting, I think I should be okay.
I was looking through my flickr archive from a year ago and found the above photo. It was taken on a night outing with Vandigicammers at Jericho Beach.

First of all this photo is friggin amazing! I was just saying the exact same thing to a friend recently about going to bed early and not getting a better sleep. For me going to bed early is no guarantee of getting a good sleep, in fact quite often the opposite is true. What seems to be more important for me is how I feel mentally. If I’ve been active physically or mentally doing something and then I go to bed when I’m actually tired and satisfied then I have a great sleep. Whereas if I just go to bed because I’m bored or something I don’t have as good a sleep.

Hmmm… I wonder if I didn’t feel refreshed this morning because I didn’t get enough exercise yesterday…? Or maybe I’m just worn out after a busy week and need some real sleep. It’s about quality and not quantity.
This shot is from that same evening Ben.
