47 518 waits at Peterborough for the mail tCross o be loaded into the guards compartment on 1D06, the 18:17 Kings - Cleethorpes, I believe, at that time, the only remaining through service from London to the Lincolnshire coastal town.
31 279 is in the adjacent platform
Stumbled upon this find while exploring the Railway Museum yesterday. It's kind of sad that cars and planes made carrying mail like this obsolete.
This week’s theme for my 52 project is “Beauty in Everyday Items.” This is one of my alternate shots. I chose this because a mail slot is an everyday item, but this one is quite beautiful. Sadly, they’ve added an ugly plastic sign above this hence the tight crop. This mail slot is on the Toronto Hydro-Electric Building at 14 Carlton. It’s a glorious Art Deco building that I’ve photographed many times. This is the first time shooting the mail slot, however.
The inside of this mailer, die-cut in the shape of the car, proclaims "50,000 Edsels Bought In Just 10 Months". The back cover tells us "You see more Edsels every day!".
I ran all the way to the box and met my mail carrier. She said “You’re making me look bad!” but I assured her that I was just very excited!
OMG SO Excited! Dolly Overload!
Bossa Nova Beauty Poppy Parker!
My first Poppy!! (Out Of This World doesn’t count, I got her used, nude, on an FR body! So I didn’t get the whole ‘Poppy Experience’ of a fresh boxed Poppy.)
Bossa Nova is SO cute!! I love the box, the accessory drawer, her dress, her face... she is just super sweet and I’m so glad I got her! I haven’t gone through her enough to write a full review.
French Kiss Vanessa
My first Vanessa!! Holy sh*t! So, she is absolutely beautiful in hand. People might be aware of “Yellow Face Gate 2019” and there are a lot of production problems with doll heads not matching bodies.
To my eye this Vanessa didn’t even match in the promo pictures! I ordered her anyways, I figured they would possibly fix the problem, or it wouldn’t be so bad in hand, like my Jade. In hand this Vanessa matches perfectly. I can’t even explain it, she looks perfect, then you point a camera at her and the camera reads the difference in color, even where my eye doesn’t! (normally I am very sensitive about mismatched heads!) I don’t know how I feel or what I’m going to do about it. I love her look in hand but I’m primarily interested in photographing her! She stays in-box while I pontificate.
Natural Selection Noah Faraday
Love. Him. Haven’t taken him out of the box yet, but at first glance I love him. I’m so glad I entered the lottery and more glad that I won.
Level Of Suspense Lukas Maverick
Lukas was out of the box first and fast! So pleased with him and his almost mournful expression. Like the other dolls won’t stop teasing him. I’m so glad mine came with a nice sharp low widows peak. His glued down hair is easy to tamper with, I just got that part of his bangs that seems separate and dampened it enough to make it flexible, sortof half-ass styled it and let it dry stiff again. He has so much potential as a dramatic trashy romance novel cover!
More pics and possibly reviews to come, just taking a break from playing to post this cause I’m excited!
Look what arrived in the mail yesterday from Leanna Lin’s Wonderland! Happy mail filled with the cutest Momiji dolls!
One of my Flickr friends sent me a wonderful care package today! Expect some photos of excerpts of the thin book with the fancy brown cover. Published in 1863 in Leipzig, it has wonderful passages written in old German script, and wonderfully nonsensical passages of English. Here's an example:
Crabs live in the water. You will fall into the water. You must not go to the water; you might fall into it. The carp was drawn out of the water. The lark is flying over the field. The bushes are under the lark. The goldfinch is sitting upon the bush or on the grass.This is a book of my brother's. I am just coming from the market place.
And it goes on! Isn't is just a delightful treasure?
Thank you, dear shiraluna!
I have been receiving a large number of mails from my friends in flickr land just lately. I do like to hear from my friends. this is me reading a message from Emi a great girl with a good sense of humor something that is needed when writing to me for I am as daft as a box of frogs.
Look what came in the post! A new torso and head. My old one is completely knackered :-D
20 portraits to do in 23 days...can it be done? We shall see. This is really just typical of me...leave everything until the last minute and go mental.
