I am so ready for the next season of True Blood to begin! Game of Thrones is just too grim, I need the campy fun of True Blood in my life.
Meet Teacup, my very own monster in a box, and winner of the Boxtrolls Nike Shoe Contest! Created completely out of cardboard and hot glue.
Above my newly built little table in the butler's pantry. Some favorite things collected on this little shelf, including teacups I've collected from all over the world (one from Patrick's now-deceased Great-Aunt in Georgia, one from York, England, one from Maine, one from Oklahoma).
Tea anyone? This was taken at the Rally To Restore Sanity (hosted by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert) on The National Mall in Washington D.C. - As you might guess, this is a bit of performance art mocking the Tea Party, teacups and tea bags included.
These images were captured around the cottage originally built as a wedding present for their daughter.
Seems like we went from 50 degrees and jackets to 80 degrees and shorts overnight. No matter, it was a welcome relief so off to Chanticleer Gardens we went with cameras in hand.
Chanticleer is in Wayne PA in suburban Philadelphia just a 1-1/4 hour drive from home. Pretty easy to get to.
Our prime mission was to simply get outside for a few hours and take some pictures. In a few short weeks, we’ll be headed to Europe so we also wanted to test drive capturing images WITHOUT our interchangeable lens cameras. In my case that would be an iPhone X, a GoPro, and a 360 camera. It was only iPhone X for Kathy. Both of us had iPhones mounted into a grip for easier handling.
The first issue we ran into was simply being able to see what was on our iPhone screens. The bright sun and reflections made it almost impossible to see controls. I was using FILMic Pro for video and a camera control app for stills. We were barely able to simply compose an image. Half hour in, we found a shady spot to check results and were surprised at how well exposed our images were. Sharpness, for the most part, was spot on.
The teacups were off with no queue, so we presumed they were non-functional (like half the rides in the park seem to be for half of today). Just turns out nobody wants to go on them. We took a cup each and fucked around like idiots.
I finally got around to making a teacup candle with my candle-making supplies I ordered before Christmas. Sorry the photo is bad, the lighting is terrible but the candle turned out great, its french vanilla and Linen scented (I played around till I found something I liked and that I knew my friend Frizbe would like as the candle was a gift for her. I also made one from a Denby sugar pot for myself, but I forgot to photograph it before burning it!
