I was surprised to get this effect - part of the sky and trees reflected in the window I was shooting through, while the main subjects were clear.

I was looking for something in a box today and could not resist pulling out a couple of CDVs to scan. The hair part here looks "boy" but the china head doll says "girl" to me. In any case the little one is holding tight to it. The rocking chair must have been a problem since there are stops under the rocker to keep it from moving. The back mark is for James Zelner of Mauch Chuk, PA.

So, this is where we're going to keep baby Zoe.

 

It was not my idea to hang the quilts on the walls.

if it said "do not open" he would.

This is an old, weathered "Cracker Barrel" style rocking chair from our house in Atlanta.

 

It saw a season or two on the patio rather than the porch so this one is extra weathered.

 

There are two more (on the porch) that will be painted as well

Outtake from my Vermeer homage.

My very old creation but it seems to me very funny and curious enough to put it here! Sorry for small resolution :)

Columbia, South Carolina

The only airport I've ever been in with rocking chairs!

My boss re-canes them and I repair and/or refinish the frames.

The seat and back were dropping disintegrating cane every time it moved and the varnish was flaking, lifting and discoloured after it had been accidentally left outside.

For a while I had parts of this hanging all over the place and I had to have a chart so I remembered how many coats each part had been given.

Grandma's chair, we kept very little of the furniture that was here.

please show me what you have done with it in the comment box ;)

but do not make other stock from my stock!

As the weather gets warmer, people spend more time outside to clean up their lawns, gardens, and patios. This particular porch looks especially welcoming!

Here is the completed nursery as seen from the door! The closet runs the entire length of the wall to the left, and the wall unseen on the right houses the bookshelf I previously showed, as well as a cute white wicker hamper. All that's missing is a baby! (but she will be here no later than Wednesday! We are scheduled for an induction very, very early that morning if she doesn't get here on her own before that!!!!)

*********************************************************

 

As I have noted in several earlier Flickr albums, as long as I continue going to the same NYC dentist, you can count on two or three sets of photos of Bryant Park each year. The reason is simple: my dentist is located in mid-town Manhattan, about a block from the park — and when I'm done, I'm always tempted to walk over and see how the park looks. Consequently, I've collected almost a dozen separate sets of Bryant Park photos, which you can see summarized here on Flickr.

 

At least one or two of those other sets will provide you with the historical details of the park; or you can look it up here on Wikipedia. But this particular visit (and one or two others in this collection) had nothing to do with my dentist: I was on a lunch-break from a weekend class at the International Center of Photography, located about a block away. It was a relatively mild late-winter Saturday, and I was feeling somewhat claustrophobic after spending the entire morning in a small windowless basement-level classroom; so I opted to skip my lunch meal, and just wandered around the park taking pictures.

 

After surveying the scene, I decided to make at least one circumnavigational loop, to photograph whatever looked interesting. Actually, there wasn't much alternative: the central lawn had been completely torn up, and roped off to keep people away. I think they're going to be laying down new sod/grass for the spring season ... but in any case, everyone was confined to the chairs and tables around the edge of the park.

 

Of course, there were lots of people reading books, chatting on their cell phones, and carrying on conversations with one another. But there was there was something else going on, to a far greater extent than I recall ever seeing here in the park before: people sound asleep. A couple of the people looked like homeless vagabonds, but most were well-dressed middle-class people who had simply decided, for whatever reason, to stretch out in a chair or lay their face and upper torso down on a table ... and drift off to sleep. So I took a few pictures of the people, as well as a few unusual displays of affection.

 

All of this was shot with my simple Canon G12 camera, instead of the various large, bulky DSLR cameras that I normally use. The main advantage of the G12 is that it's small and unobtrusive; and because it has a swivel (or "reticulating") LCD monitor, I can tilt it so that I'm looking down toward my feet while pointing the camera lens at an unsuspecting subject, who might be only a few feet away. Thus, instead of hurriedly firing off three or four shots with my Nikon D700, and hoping that one of them might produce good results, I could take my time with the G12, and get a single well-composed picture. Over the course of two weekends, I ended up taking a little over 250 photos, of which 100 survived the editing process, and will be uploaded here to Flickr over the next several days...

 

At the end of a one-hour lunchtime each day, I turned off the camera, and headed back up the street to my ICP class. But I'll be back to see my dentist next month, and I'll try to stop by the park again, to see what it looks like when spring has returned ...

But remember a rocking chair, gives you something to do, but you never get anywhere.

IVª QUEDADA MARINA BAIXA A LA VILA JOIOSA 04/09/2011

Si pulsas "L" no mejora, pero se ve un poco más grande y se aprecian mejor los detalles :-)

  

konica auto S2 and a snow day

While we were waiting hopefully outside the restaurant for a taxi to take us back to the border, the shopkeeper on the opposite side of the street invited us in to "look around". As it was hot outside and the length of our wait was unknown, we accepted.

 

Shockingly, I was unable to find a piece to take home to place in our living room, or anywhere else.

 

Ojinaga, Mexico.

“Lena, take a photo of me with the horse on my head,” Zakhar says to me.

“And can we take it home with us?” he уточifies.

“No,” his mom says.

 

About four years ago, Zakhar looks at the horse and asks,

“So what is our horse doing at your place?”

 

Someone once managed to get rid of the horse very successfully. The horse is a hit. Both kids and adults try to ride it. The crown also came from some former client. They arrived with a crown and left without it. The crown has gotten a bit battered, lost some of its “precious” stones, but the number of people wanting to be photographed in it hasn’t gone down.

 

Yesterday my brother came with his wife, their kids, and our mom. Everyone was having a great time. The kids, like all kids, really didn’t want to stand still for photos. I was a little afraid someone might get hurt. But then you look at the pictures afterward and laugh.

 

“Because it’s boring to just pose for photos,” as Chloe said.

...last time at the hospital.

A wonderful old hospital with amazing big and wide corridors and rooms. There was still life in there - beautiful to explore!

Old rockin’ chair’s got me! It rests the back, and rocking moves the blood . I haven't checked to see if my Apple watch registers the movement as "activity," but that would be an easy way to lap my daily circles!

In time for our Easter Party I recovered a Craftsman style rocking chair built by my grandfather around 1910. The Calder print material covering it was a recover from my mother- it used to be covered in all leather.
