Contrast Thursday

 

Advertising and branding, always good for contrasting colours

I finished the first two sides of the prototype to mixed personal reviews. As a perfectionist I wanted a spot-on routing match with the perfected lines and the points of the font I chose, but in reality I don’t even have a bit that can get that narrow.

 

I can either change the font, or live with a “Not-perfectly pointed” font.

 

My first reaction was to change the font because I wanted perfection… but the more I sat back and thought about it, the more part of me actually liked the font a little twisted and turned. I’m not sure what I am going to do right now…

  

The more I route the better the technique, so I am very happy this is a prototype- by the time the real work comes I think I’ll know what I want to do!

When my girls were young I loved to read Winnie the Pooh to them and we loved all the characters.

Typesetting: the retrieval of stored letters and the ordering of them according to a language's orthography for visual display.

 

During much of the letterpress era, movable type was composed by hand for each page.

 

Cast metal sorts were composited into words and lines of text and tightly bound together to make up a page image called a forme, with all letter faces exactly the same height to form an even surface of type. The forme was mounted in a press, inked, and an impression made on paper.

Today was a good day in work, I managed today to sell 4 cars. "Making money"

Several of my Flickr contacts have in recent days posted shots showing their images that have been published in magazines, so I thought I would get on the bandwagon.

 

I was pleased to recently have one of my photos selected as the lead image for Shutterbug magazine’s “Picture This” feature, in which readers submit images based on a certain theme or topic. My image is at the top right here, and appeared in the May 2015 issue of Shutterbug for the “Low-Light Noir” assignment. If you zoom in, you should be able to read the text, if you’re interested. The image was posted originally on Flickr last November for a Macro Monday “Film Noir” theme, and can be viewed here.

He certainly looks to be on his mobile phone! Actually it is a Gormley Statue in the crypt of Winchester Cathedral. It was originally part of a statue exhibition/display at the Cathedral and rumour has it that when Gormley went to retrieve this statue he found it standing in several inches of water and could think of no better place for it to be displayed. Apparently the crypt frequently floods after periods of prolonged rain and the water gives a mirrored surface.

Most of you probably know, but if not, Japan was hit by an 8.9 Magnitude Earthquake Friday March 11, 2011 at 2:46 pm Japan Time. After the quake there was an ensuing Tsunami wave that devastated many coastal communities in Japan, destroying homes cars and lives.

Arthur Fellig's notable mobile darkroom would be wonderfully imagined inside of a taxi cab (for my next design) but here divinely transformed into a chinese country kitchen; a way to honor his life (with a more homelike, gourmet touch). Industrial water jugs loaded into the back seat and fresh fowl in a comfortable cage allows him to park in an alley (close to a gutter for cleaning the fowl) for a healthy farm-fresh meal. He can supplant this with live fish and fresh greens from any Manhattan market. In the winter he can grill sesame buns the old-fashioned way and have these with a simple green soup for an invigorating early breakfast just before heading out to the streets with his camera. Chinese condiments are held by a rail and a bamboo brush keeps the mobile kitchen clean. The hobby of country style cooking will not only raise his spirits but extend his life as well.

 

Re-envisioned for his old age, Weegee would have to rely on Polaroid camera backs for his Speed Graphic, placing them on a custom two-tiered brass and wood shelf at the front seat. Drawers for Nat Sherman's, flash bulbs, film and a pull out 'Weegee board' for the photojournalist's typewriter are all considered here. Strong shock absorbers and larger tires would have to be outfitted particularly to bear the weight of the iron stove.

This particular UK road-sign really winds me up anyway, primarily because of the out of date stereotyping & sweeping generalisations applied to older people by the use of those silhouetted figures. However, the typo adds insult to injury!

 

Not content with removing the apostrophe from street signs around Bristol because it is just too inconvenient, Bristol City Council now appear to be unable to include actual letters in their signage.

For the scavenger hunt. Poem number 8. I chose this representation as my H and I spend a lot of time writing to each other, whether it's proper letters, emails, blueys, or texts. Life dictates that this is the way our relationship has to be. Although it's hard when we he is away, seeing a letter come through the door is one of the best feelings in the world. So it's not all bad.

 

i carry your heart with me

 

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in

my heart)i am never without it(anywhere

i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done

by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear

no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want

no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)

and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant

and whatever a sun will always sing is you

 

here is the deepest secret nobody knows

(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud

and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows

higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)

and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

 

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)

DAY 7

 

We arrive back on the Burg, we had seen the set-up earlier, but not paid it much attention.

These things pop up, come and go.

This time it is different, there is a buzz in the air, and lots of security…

We sit on the terrace as more and more people gather, we ask the waiter and he mumbles something about a parade and royalty attending.

So, unwittingly, we are about to witness something special!

The empty chairs are beginning to fill with lots of dressed up, uniformed and decorated men, plus ladies in their fineries, le beau mode!

I check the batteries of my camera, like a chef sharpens his knives before cooking,lol

 

I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)
