Has anyone seen the Curious Case of Benjamin Button? Is it just me, or was that film an awesome one?! Great story line...! And if you haven't seen it yet, I urge you to do so! Soon!
Anyway. I took this picture, in Hong Kong, on my P&S camera, didn't turn out too bad, despite it being in an awfully lit place, and I was a little rushed. But it was actually a nice wall mural of buttons... all glued to the wall.... certain sections with different colours. If I had more time, I would've taken shed loads, but my cousin and auntie were waiting for me.
Tag the picture!
Choose a button!
can't believe I forgot to upload these pics when my ebay vintage button case arrived - it was a sales display piece, the buttons are all still in their different sales boxes with the old prices pencilled on - just gorgeous and the whole case and all its contents were just £21!

This is one of those buttons a pedestrian is supposed to push to make a traffic light give them a chance to cross. Like every other such button, this one does not do that. In addition, this one does not even press in. But it does make a nice subject for 119 pictures in 2019, #10, "arrows". This one is just north of downtown Austin, Texas, at the entrance to the state capitol building. The intersection is just 3 way for cars, but on the days when there is not some protest or event going on, there is a short window in each cycle when visitors to the capitol are allowed to cross the main cross-street.
After my last posting I missed a button from my dress. Yesterday I found it, so
I lost a button,
A little silver button,
So I looked for my button
Most everywhere.
I found my button,
My gold rimmed button,
So I sewed on my button
Most firmly there.
Just to make you smile!
With apologies to AAMilne.
Due to chronic poor health I'm unable to take on new contacts but do my best to reply to comments. Thank you so much for your interest, comments and favours on my photostream. Also for your good wishes. I send you joy and peace.
1. B is for...
The next theme, on Saturday June 21, is all about 'buttons'... more specifically 'buttons for clothing'... I've called it "BEHOLD THE BUTTON".
To be clear I do prefer dressing nice with neckwear, but I do like different styles and sometimes I do just wear a shirt buttoned up by itself. This shirt is very well fitted in the collar so it does take some effort getting it buttoned.
This is a comparison of hardware buttons on many popular Android devices. I know this isn't all of them but I think it's filled out enough.
I find it interesting that series of devices (e.g. Droid Series) don't match. Also, there is no consistency in regards to icon design on each device.
UPDATE: The Bergol says I have used the incorrect Droid 2 in this list. Instead of matching the Droid, it matches the Droid Pro. I apologize for my mistake.
UPDATE 2: Thanks for all the views. This was originally pointed out by Ben but John Gruber from Daring Fireball was my source. Engadget has created a better version here. I meant no disrespect to the Android community but feel that muscle memory can cause a frustrating experience when changing devices.
I took this picture a few months ago for Flooz. She made Dyxie Doodle pads from my photos with white backgrounds. I didn't post the photos I took because they were supposed to be "Exclusive" designs. Fancy! But now that the doodle pads have been made and are no more, I thought I would post some of the pictures. Yay!
Found some green and pink buttons at Dollarama so just had to buy them! so I am kind of late for this Christmas..but really early for next year! And you know how fast time flies LOL
the blue button jelly (Porpita porpita) forms part of the "blue fleet", a huge drifting community of organisms which includes the infamous bluebottle. the blue colour apparently provides protection against uv light and, i imagine it also provides quite an effective camoflage against predators hovering above.
Probably Boke's, but I'll go back and photograph some of the Common Button cacti (easy to confuse with Boke's) found nearby. This one is 3-4 cm tall. When the rains come, this plant will fill up with water and become much more spherical. If weather continues to be dry, it will continue to shrink until it is little more than a flat pancake.
Today will be one of my rare no-neckwear days. I have not worn this in awhile, but once every few weeks or so I do like to try the buttoned up look. I work in the morning and plan to meet with a friend for a late lunch. With the cold weather and early darkness of the season I do not have any other plans so I will probably have a relaxing evening at home. I like the contrasting white collar on this black shirt. I have an all-black shirt on order and look forward to some outfit combinations with it soon.
