A coffee cart has opened at the car repair place down by Linden railway station. I'm not sure how much passing trade they will get as this is, I think, a fairly quiet street, busy with foot traffic only at rush hour when people are heading to the station to work or away from the station home from work. A café specialising in (refined) sugar-free goods, but also selling coffee, opened a few days ago less than a hundred metres away from here, on the other side of the railway crossing.
They made this look really pretty though.

See previous film photographs explaining my Road Kill project.
When I spotted this Hare last week, my Olympus OM 10's batteries were flat so had to resort to my i phone.
The building that houses the Grand Hotel in Jerome, Arizona, was built in 1927 and was originally the United Verde Hospital, considered at the time to be the most modern hospital in Arizona. It included a psychiatric ward. Today the Grand Hotel is a destination for ghost seekers, and many claim to have seen a nurse with a clipboard bending over their beds. The hotel restaurant, "The Asylum," is known for excellent food, quirky decor, and the way they go all out to decorate for Halloween.
These "favorite" themes really are tough to narrow down. In the end I chose the vehicle for these reasons:
1. There is usually a sense of anticipation or excitement to be going somewhere and then there's the return trip to go home (another favorite place).
2. Sometimes the journey is just as much fun as the destination. I can tell you all kind of wonderful stories from vacations and the best are from the car rides.
3. Trapped in a small area with my kids eventually led to conversation and that was always fun and interesting =)
Now don't get me wrong, the thought of a long car ride does not appeal to me but for the reasons I've stated, I kept coming back to it as a favorite place...call me crazy!

After a week off to sort out the house and move in, I will be back at work tomorrow. I still have some painting to do, there's lots to unpack and I haven't even thought about the garden (and I'm sure the plants I bought some weeks ago would like a bit more soil and some nutrients.
But when I sit on the sofa and look at the pile of furniture that needs moving and the bare garden that needs planting, I see how it will be. I see roses obscuring the fence, I see the lounge tidy and organised the way I want it. I'm going to be very happy here.

My monthly theme for Project 365 is anything geocaching related. I didn't go caching this month and I didn't have any inspiration for a photo today, so I snapped this geocaching pathtag.

The tripod 'statue' at the end of Courtenay Place, opposite the Embassy Theatre, by Weta Workshop. Snapped on my way home from Bats Theatre where I had watched a well acted but unsatisfactory Fringe play.

The Project Neon sign arrived. It is awesome. Come see it in person at the City Reliquary show, opening Friday September 23, 2011.
The "Spice of the Month Club" is the name of this 32 sq in table topper, made in Tucson,AZ. It is a one block tessellation design that I've wanted to try ever since seeing one awhile ago. The spice aisle was my inspiration, and starting from the center out, I chose chili powder, saffron, coriander, nutmeg, mustard seed and cardamom.
In this montage I wanted to have a kind of comedic edit to it. What if photographers of that era had access to a smart phone camera. I think that photographer would always have first access at whatever newspaper they worked at to be able to get these pictures quicker. I decided to show the development of cameras from big bulky cameras (older gentlemen), to hand held ones (guy in middle bomber jacket), and then all the way up to a smart phone (kid with smart phone).
