In Kirkenes, in the far north of Norway, these snow mobiles and snow buggies were the vehicles on display in the forecourts. Definitely an object of desire if you want to get around in the snow. :-)
117 pictures in 2017. #36/117. Objects of Desire.
I say these ordinary objects. It's just as likely that these assembled objects weren't here when Caroline Herschel kept house and governed this kitchen. Yet it is the mundanity of this collection of things which underlines how ordinary people do extraordinary things. Of course there was home help, servants if you like. The Herschel's were not downtrodden labourers! History shows them momentarily in the millinery business and capable musical entertainers.
The brightest, most talented people still have the needs of all humanity. William was married and as we have seen, had a very clever, hardworking son — not societally exceptional, just on the spectrum of "normal".
But if these things were part of Caroline's orbit I want to acknowledge that she was more than a housekeeper, more than William's sister, assistant or junior colleague. There was some supposed animus. Isn't there in most families? Out of this she persisted and developed her own interests and abilities. As a discoverer of eight comets, the first paid woman scientist and first paid government employee Caroline was a dynamic trail blazer. She was recognised by her peers in the Royal Astronomical Society who made her an Honorary Member.
Caroline Herschel has sent us a message through time: ordinary doesn't rule out extraordinary!
After taking this picture I thought it was cool with all the colors I never seen my dogs toy that way
A multimedia piece on greyboard, painted in acrylic and accented with blue and red chalk. This piece was a portrait without a face, made up of only objects to represent me.
Included is my dog, one of the birds from my aviary, my Doc Martens, a cat and strawberry plushie, a tea mug and a pride flag.
All the dark brown objects are petrified wood. Petrified Forest National Park is a southerly detour from Route 66. However, Route 66 ran through the Painted Desert located in northern section of the park.
The Discovery Museum of Newcastle Upon Tyne and the Grange Day Centre Throckley for Elders are working together to explain and explore objects from the museum's loans box collection. It encourages elders to reminisce and provides invaluable information on familiar household objects of the past that may have become unknown to the present generation.
Like the famouse novel of Marcel Proust "Rememberance of Things Past" ,where a small French cake known as " a madeleine " acts as a catalist that transports the author back in time, so these objects are a starting point of reference for our elders at the Grange Day Centre for a journey into their past.
At the Grange the "Reel Lives on Loan Project" is commited to the wellbeing and care of the elderly by developing their creative skills and engaging them in a meaningful celebration of their lives in both image and word. The elders talking and commenting on objects weave real life experiences which shape a strong bridge for us to walk across today and for all future generations to come. It is an invaluable contribution from the elders to our knowledge of history and as a resource for the Discovery Museum. Their vivid accounts of a lifetime spanning two world wars demonstrates that eventful and even heroic lives are in our midst. As the artist fascilitating the project I can say it is a treasure worth seeking and a pleasure to get to know elders who have established the Great Britain that we live in today. Was it better then we may ask? The answer is it is better today because of them.

I decided to do a project photography shoot using earrings in the shape of the Caffeine Chemical Compound. I used coffee beans, coffee grind and a mug to display the product in an out of its packaging. The lights I used were 2 umbrella lights from the right side and the front left, and a spot light from the front left side. I am very happy how this shoot turned out.

It is a music player which has been produced by Meizu. Meizu is a music player then a cellphone manufacturer. As you can see in the picture, the most clear part is the logo of the brand, first character of "M"eizu. Why I bought it? I am fond of music but I cannot enjoy the music when I am out of my apartment. So I needed a portable device. At that moment, some domestic brands and some foreign brands were in the market, such as iPod, iRiver... But they costed a lot so I turned to domestic brands. Finally I found Meizu because of the reasonable price as well as the "similar" opeartion as iPod, namely, the touch feeling. You could scroll the screen up and down by sliding your thumb up/down the bar shown in the picture. And the most convinced reason I bought was the various format it supports: APE/FLAC/mp3/WAV. Of course, the FM radio was also my favorite function. The appearence also attracts me a lot due to the dark color which looked more professional. In a nutshell, it was a good device whose price was acceptable and provided lots of features.
