I was impressed by the packaging job done by Lens Authority. My used EF 135mm f/2L lens was wrapped in bubble wrap, then placed inside the pouch Canon provides for their L lenses. The pouch and lens were securely held in place by all these pieces of foam.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

Another junk box. Mostly electronic stuff but also some gutted floppy drives and strange expansion cards. When you're an electronics nut these are very useful, if not indispensable.

This is my “Black Palm, Satinwood and Lacewood” Ring Box. It measures 3 1/2” x 3 1/2” and is 2” high. There are 72 pieces, both full and half size diamonds and triangles, on this box. On the top there are 32 half-size pieces where it would normally have 16 full size pieces. It is finished in its natural color with 1 coat of varnish brushed on and 3 coats of clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16” thick, glued onto a Baltic Birch base.
The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box is “Black Palm” from Indonesia. (I cut this wood at an angle to give the black dots a different look.) “Satinwood” from Sri Lanka is a wood with a beautiful golden satiny luster to it. Then “Lacewood” from Australia is a wood that has a nice coppery sheen to it.
This box is all made from very exotic wood.
I made this box in 2004. On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it. After the date, the words “Foot Cut” let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.
It is lined with black velveteen. It has 3 “ring pads” on the bottom forming 2 slots about 2 ½” long, for rings.
This is the ultimate letter box just outside Deepwater NSW. Yes I confess I am a Dr Who nerd, thus the scarf I brought along for the photos :) The Daleks had better not tangle with Dr Who's companion Mumma J!
The Music Box Theatre was completed in 1929 at 3733 N. Southport Ave. in a building that included nine storefronts and 32 apartments. The building was designed by Louis A. Simon, a local architect who was better known for his Depression-era WPA Post Offices and homes for the nouveau riche. Between 1977 and 1983, the Music Box was used sporadically for Spanish language, pornographic and Arabic language films. In 1983, management reopened the theater with a format of double-feature revival and repertory films. Eventually, foreign films were reinstated, and independent and cult films were added to the roster. In 1991, management added a second screen. Rather than split the main theater in two, a small theater was built in an existing storefront adjacent to the lobby.
I've been meaning to a drawing like this forever! The original is all gouache.
You've probably heard at least one version of the song "Little Boxes," maybe the Pete Seeger version, or maybe one of the many covers on the show Weeds. My favorite is the original by Malvina Reynolds.
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same.
