Day 248 – I took a photo of my computer screen, going the photos I took from Ryan’s birthday at Disneyland.
10/25/14 - I went down to Eastern Market today and it was a perfect day to go. Lots of people and lots of vendors. I just love the vibrant colors and the great smells from all of the food. Several people had baskets full of these peppers. They were so colorful, I could not help myself. I didn't by any of them, but I did end up leaving with several bags full of fresh vegetables.
Can't get any less imaginative than this shot now can you... lack of sleep and lack of time.
Tune of the day: Everything You Need by Adem
As I walked the dog this evening, this car came up behind us and honked it's horn. It turned out to be my wife's nephew, his girlfriend and a buddy of his. As they drove off, I fired off a few shots.

As anyone who has been folowing this Project365 will know, I am about to tke part in a production of Beauty And The Beast. This will be a "show in a week" at the Dunblane Centre. We gather on Monday morning and put on a show on the Friday evening. Wow!
We recently were given permission to give out some advertising leaflets for the show in the Thistles shopping centre, Stirling. Because of the short notice, however, only a few f the adult cast could go. And since the three characters you really want to see from this show are Belle, The Beast and Lumiere, a little bit of costume swapping had to go on.
So that is how I found myself in the Thistle Centre, dressed as The Beast, on a glorious Saturday afternoon. Gillian was of course Belle, and Leigh borrowed Lumiere's costume for the day.
The reactions from the public were great! We had loads of people asking to have their photographs taken with us - not just kids - probably more photos taken with adults than kids! And people seemed genuinely in the show too - I wonder how many will come?
Clearly I didn't take this picture, it was taken by Pamela, the director and organiser of the show. Thanks, Pam!
Tonight I discovered something new about myself. I am motivated by necessity more than challenge. Our friend Jon is getting married Friday at noon. He needed to have his wedding trousers hemmed. I have been sewing off and on for 25 years. Tonight was the first time I ever attached my blind hem foot and attempted to use it. Although not perfect my results were not too shabby. That being said, I need to practice skills when my success is not so crucial.
My son participated in a county football tournament, organised by a professional football club, today. The weather has not been particularly good with rain, heavy winds and temperatures of 7C (45F). I was anxious that he might fall ill but thankfully it turned out to be an indoor event.
Presentes... Do carteiro!!!! kkk Depois de mais de dois meses chegaram. Não estava mais acreditando que chegariam. Comprei duas caixas no mesmo dia e a primeira chegou em três semanas. E essa quase 80 dias depois. O.O Nomes nas notinhas.
Artwork close-up from last night. This was a very last minute photo to end the day. I fell asleep during the basketball game and at that time the Raptors were behind, and when I woke up Claire said the Raptors won. So that was a productive nap!

Here is the finished product from the red yarn a couple days ago. My wife made a crochet Muno from Yo Gabba Gabba for our two year old son for his birthday.
PATTERN IS HERE:
I was so busy I forgot to have lunch today. Felt like a boost at around 2pm went downstairs to make myself a cup of tea and was reminded that I still needed to eat.
Today's Project 365 photo is another "Then & Now" to commemorate the 157th Anniversary of the Eureka Rebellion and the 38th Anniversary of when this original photo was taken.
The original one was taken by a photographer from The Courier newspaper and shows my Grandfather, Lex Rizzoli when he was the Mayor of Ballarat, with Prime Minister Gough Whitlam and the always stylish Al Grassby.
After being stored in a drawer for many years, the flag was hung above the stairs of the gallery. It later moved into a climate and light controlled environment and last year was sent to South Australia for restoration. It arrived back in Ballarat a couple of days ago and is available for public viewing again as of today.

Day 262, static...!

I got a new toy today. The Yongnuo 50mm F1.8 lens. A Chinese copy, of a Canon nifty-fifty, made to work with Nikon. This should be interesting. I plan to try it out on both my D300s and the D500. Watch this space for samples in the coming weeks!
Not quite as cool as I'd hoped, but then daylight was wasting and I had a ton of stuff to do that day. Ah well - it's 365 photos, not 365 masterpieces!
My friend Katrina gave me this about 13 years ago because she broke one of my toy castles. It says phrases like "I am such a space cadet" "Hey man that's cosmic" "I am totally spaced out" in a robot voice when you throw it and it hits something. The batteries are still good after all these years, which is pretty amazing.
