Let me introduce you my new outfit made with reverie for Alicia. She want something around my Little Red Riding Hood... So I plan to make a new variation of this theme, with a lot of assorted machine embroideries by combining some designs.

 

This set include a dress, a corseted over-dress, removable puffed sleeves, a jacket, a petticoat and socks.

 

Here, you can see:

- The corseted over-dress, fully lined, cut in a wonderful dark shot cotton "Moor" (weaving of burgundy and emerald green threads). These piece is edged by an assortment of embroidery, trims and lace. Tiny gold eyelets and a satin ribbon lacing make the back closure.

- The dress made of antique white Dimity cotton fabric. All edges were trimmed with small floral embroidery and the front buttonholes band is enhanced with lace and gold metal tiny beads.

- Removable puffed sleeves made of cotton batiste.

- The petticoat made of cotton muslin edged and adorned by airy french lace and red ribbon.

 

I I take this opportunity to introduce you an other of my new dolls customized by me during the past months.

 

Her name is "My Alice".

 

I used a FBL Ambrosial Blythe with a Jenna scalp I bought especially to become Alice.

 

Work done:

· Carving of her nose, lips and philtrum

· New full makeup made with artist Extra Soft Pastels "à l'écu" from Sennelier and sealed with several layers of MSC

· Sleepy eyes

· Gaze corrected

· New lashes

· Eyelids painted with artist Extra Soft Pastels "à l'écu" from Sennelier

· Four new pairs of eye chips hand painted by me using professional Golden iridescent fluid acrylics. Light Aqua (right), Light red (center), Hazelnut (left), Moss green (center)

 

Thank you very much for your visiting!

Thanks to Cindy and Halle for the invite. Thanks to the folks at Get Satistfaction and Songbird for hosting. And, of course, the peeps at Terra.

 

This was my spare camera as my D200 is broken and I didn't realize I could have shot the Leica. Since my D70 L bracket is on loan, the flash was handheld which made AF, flash, nearly everything inconsistent.

Michigan School for the Blind

Listed 7/26/2018

Lansing, Michigan

Reference number: 100002714

 

The Michigan School for the Blind Campus was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on July 26, 2018. It is located in Lansing, Michigan, west of downtown, on several parcels of land that total some forty-five acres. There are six buildings that remain from the time the school was closed in 1995. These include the early twentieth century Neoclassical Revival Main Administration (1916, 1918, and 1924) and High School (1912) buildings, the Colonial Revival superintendent’s residence (1914), and the Modern Movement library, elementary school, and gymnasium buildings (1960s). There are also two historic pump house buildings also on the site (1920s.) The campus includes a “quad” green space, various plantings, and mature trees, with concrete walkways connecting the buildings, and the decaying remains of a running track. The Administration and High School buildings are vacant and in poor condition, yet retain a great deal of historic integrity. The library, elementary school, and gymnasium retain a high degree of historic fabric and continue in use. The library houses the Neighborhood Empowerment Center, a nonprofit collective; the elementary school and gymnasium are used by the Mid-Michigan Leadership Academy, a charter elementary school. The Superintendent’s house is well-maintained, exhibits a high degree of historic integrity, and is currently vacant and for sale.

 

The Michigan School for the Blind represents a dedicated attempt by the State of Michigan to effectively educate the blind population in a segregated educational setting to better accommodate their need for training and instruction. The philosophy of a specific educational setting for the blind reflects the broad pattern statewide and nationally in the late nineteenth to late twentieth century prior to the change in education practices of the late twentieth century when the blind population was incorporated into mainstream educational systems. The Michigan School for the Blind campus is also significant for its early and midtwentieth century examples of school architecture in the Neoclassical Revival, Colonial Revival, and Modern Movement styles. The early twentieth century architecture reflects the popular revival style of educational institutions of that period and the design of buildings sited around a quad reflects the typical design of educational campuses popular at that time. The second major period of construction and growth of the campus is exemplified by the popular clean-lined Modern Movement school designs of the 1960s with adaptable and light-filled interiors. The Period of Significance begins with the date of construction of the oldest existing building in 1912 and ends in 1966, when the last existing structure was completed.

Lately we've been doing some two part shoots - the first part in a nicely shaded area at the Star River Walk Park before hitting the Boise River when the light is just right.

 

Brittney, the Queen of Freckles, is the model here. Brittney is such a delight to shoot with. She is just coming back from a short hiatus as a photographer and she told me she needed some photo therapy. Sounds good to me.

 

We shot on a lovely, hot evening in early August 2023. Almost everyone that walked by during our shoot complimented Brittney on her looks and smile. I agree.

Well, well, well. I've been wondering this for a long time... how exactly did the Highway Department sign the temporary end of I-215? There you have it. I-215 was opened in sections between 1963 and 1989. For a good visual summary of this process, check out this diagram on Wikipedia.

 

This photo is from one of 145 boxes I've been perusing at the State Archives in downtown. These photos come from the Utah Department of Transportation, and were taken mostly by Cal Briggs or Gerald E. Peterson. The photos are sorted by year (with the exception of the first several boxes), and span from 1965 to 1997. Most are black-and-white negatives, though one can find prints here and there, as well as color slides.

 

I have to hand it to the staff over there—without them, none of these photos would be on Flickr and they'd be sitting in some box for ages. My sincerest thanks goes out to them.

The World Bank and CIF Administrative Unit Team visited Niger from April 20th to May 5th 2015 to conduct the mid-term review of the Community Action Project for Climate Resilience (CAPCR). This mission included field visits in two regions (Tahoua and Maradi). These field visits demonstrated project achievement and results on the ground and provided real time feedback from beneficiaries.

The Striker For Canon C100-C300-C500 is a step up from the Target Shooter. It is designed for lightweight, run’n’gun shooting stabilization. It is super light and easy to handle. The Striker rig features the Gorilla Baseplate which attaches to your camera using 3/8” 16 and ¼” 20 screws. It is compatible with the C300/100/500, Scarlet and Epic cameras. The Gorilla Baseplate also features a set of 15mm lightweight threaded holes in the front of the baseplate. This allows users to mount a follow focus, lens support or other accessories in front of the camera. The rod to lens height is not standard, so it is not compatible with a matte box unless you have a height adjustable matte box*.

 

The Gorilla Baseplate has a 15mm hole in the bottom which allows you to attach the main vertical rod for the Striker Rig. The rig can be freed from the Gorilla Baseplate by flipping the red lever. A tripod plate can be installed on the Gorilla Baseplate for quickly moving from handheld to tripod. The C300 Striker Rig includes the Zacuto Gunstock, just like the C300 Target Shooter and expands upon that by adding a Zgrip handgrip. The handgrip gives you an extra point of contact. Simply brace the Gunstock against your shoulder, hold one hand on the handle and the other on your lens and you are ready to shoot! This kit has minimal set up time and is very light and easy to use. This rig works best when using the eyepiece on the C300 camera.

Funeral for Our Future - Service conducted by Stop Adani Melbourne and friends, officiated by Uniting Church Minister Rev Alex Sangster, Processional march by Riff Raff Marching Band, Songs lead by the Climate Choir, Eulogy for the Reef by Alan Cuthbertson from Stop Adani Melbourne, Eulogy for Nature by Joseph Birckhead and Audrey Cooke, Euologu for Children's Future by teenager Marco Bellemo, Call to Action by Rev Alex Sangster and Marco Bellemo.

 

A very moving two hour ceremony that started and finished in Federation Square in the Melbourne DBD on Saturday 1st December. It comes after Adani announced they would be proceeding with the Carmichael coal mine in the Galilee basin, such announcement coming in the middle of an extreme heatwave and catastrophic fires across Queensland.

 

A processional march ocurred across Flinders street,past the iconic clocks of Flinders street station and back to Federation Square.

 

The Funeral for our Future comes a day after several thousands students marched in Melbourne in a climate strike calling for Stop Adani, 100% renewables by 2030, and leadership by our politicians at state and Federal levels.

 

The events comes on the eve of the United Nations climate Change conference in Katowice, Poland, #COP24, due to start on December 2, 2018, which has the task of adopting the rulebook for the Paris Agreement that was passed at COP21 in Paris in 2015, that set the goals of limiting temperatures to well below 2C and strive for 1.5C by 2050.

Well it seems to be ok for the moment.

 

It's amazing to watch movies on it, it's really clear and because it's in a corner the walls/ceiling around it light up for some reason when the room is dark, which makes it look like it's one of the expensive Phillips Aurea TV's.

 

I had the builders fit power/aerial/scart and hdmi cables from the ground to mid way up the wall behind the plasterboard when the house was being built as it doesn't cost anything when a house is being built. This makes the TV appear as if it's floating which I think looks quite cool... until it falls down.

 

It's actually really big (look at the dvd player on top of the table for scale), but the room's so large it looks tiny from this view. I watched Shrek 3, which was great, and Transformers, which was so bad it looked like Jerry Bruckheimer had directed it.

I may be selling my 2010 XF-S soon. It will be a sad day when it goes, but it will be 8 years old in September, so I'm looking for something about 3 years old to replace it. It will either be a newer Jag or maybe even an Audi A7 Quattro.

for our dear Blythe friend, Debby, in Canada. We are wishing her well for a lil' surgery tomorrow. She will be kicking her feet up on the couch and relaxing for a bit! :) (Lil' side note - squee - our 1st Sweet Days Hat!)

Amina was working in Lush the perfume/comstic/girlie shop dressed as a dragon for he Chinese new year celebrations. I initially picked out one of her shop mates who was giving out leaflets but he suggested that the others in the shop were better face painted. 23 year old Amina lives in Stratford and is aiming to be a singer/songwriter, who is into indie - alternative music and she has written a song called soundcloud (I think I can't quite read my scribblings) and can be seen/heard at her FB www.facebook.com/maykaymusic.

1 year and 5 days old, Emma finally agrees to sleep in her stroller - she actually fell asleep in the car, but allowed me to move her and slept while Mikey played.

Hiroshige The Rocket. Late for Guy Fawkes but hey....makes a change from all those landscapes of his. A prolific artist with over 8000 works to his name I don't think I've seen one yet that I don't like. One sometimes sees what seems (to me) to be the self same view but titled Firework at Ryogoku.

 

He was born in 1797 and died in 1858.

for those who didn't want the skinnyspined version

For a self-portrait group I'm in. I thought I'd give it a go even though I'm not a big fan of self-portraits, especially given the face I have to work with. But hey, at least the computer is pretty to look at. :^)

Desfile de Alebrijes monumentales 2009

 

... or monumental alebrije's parade.

 

Alebrijes are a mexican artisanry that depict crazy colorful little fantastical creatures. Usually a mix between snake, rooster, dragon, insects... you name it. Totally psychedelic El Bosco meets peyote stuff.

 

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alebrije

 

Of course a normal sized alebrije fits in your hand... but those are MONUMENTAL alebrijes! :)

 

I had a blast shooting loads of pics, dancing, meeting people, asking for people to pose... loved it. The atmosphere was great.

 

Will post more pictures tomorrow.
