you never know what you're going to see when you look at a window , what will be revealed.
light, colours and form, all offering information to be processed, interpreted and acted upon..
I might just start calling it the Top Hat Dairies - or maybe doing this will actually cure my spelling issue in the end.
This is Caroline. Compared to some of the locations and light in the other shots, this feels a bit lacklustre but... you can't win 'em all. Her necklace says 'vintage' which I thought was a nice touch but I couldn't bring it out so i think that will pass most people by. She's a gorgeous gal though ain't she?

Ok, I'm feeling a bit sorry for the mime now (never thought I'd say that) not sure if I can do another one of these but if the right idea comes into my head then I will give it a go. :)

About these photo
I finally put together my ‘big project’ diorama! The window with sliding sashes and the window surround with shutters and balcony - some of you may remember it from way back! The cobbled ‘street’ is a wallpaper ‘sample’ from my local DIY store. The window panes are 1/12 scale and the surround was hand built by me using part of a photo frame for the ‘pediment’, shutters and surround built by hand from strips of wood and skewers and the little balcony I found on a kitcsh photo frame that I’m afraid went ‘under the hammer’ (literally!) I need to find that collage I did for this project and upload it again.

- A top hat, beaver hat, high hat, silk hat, cylinder hat, chimney pot hat or stove pipe hat, sometimes also known by the nickname "topper", is a tall, flat-crowned, broad-brimmed hat, predominantly worn by men from the latter part of the 18th to the middle of the 20th century. By the end of World War II, it had become a rarity in ordinary dress, though it continued to be worn in specific instances, such as state funerals, also by those occupying prominent positions in the Bank of England and by certain City stock exchange officials. As of the early 21st century, top hats are still worn at some society events in the UK, notably at church weddings and racing meetings attended by members of the royal family, such as Royal Ascot. They remain part of the formal uniform of certain British institutions, such as Eton College and the boy-choristers of King's College Choir. They are usually worn with morning dress or white tie, in dressage, and as part of servants' or doormen's livery.
The top hat was frequently associated with the upper class, and was used by satirists and social critics as a symbol of capitalism or the world of business. The use of the top hat persisted in politics and international diplomacy for many years, including at U.S. presidential inaugurations, the last being worn at the inauguration of John Fitzgerald Kennedy in 1961. The top hat also forms part of the traditional dress of Uncle Sam, a symbol of the United States, generally striped in red, white and blue.
The top hat is also associated with stage magic, both in traditional costume and especially the use of hat tricks.

- De hogehoed of cilinderhoed (soms ook tophoed als leenvertaling van het Engelse top hat) is een van oorsprong Engelse hoed, die gedragen werd door de hogere klassen. Over het algemeen zijn hoge hoeden zwart van kleur, maar er zijn ook anderskleurige. De hoge hoed wordt wel aangeduid als hoge zije,.
Vandaag de dag worden er nog maar weinig hoge hoeden gedragen. In de hogere kringen komt men ze nog wel tegen en ook bij plechtigheden als huwelijken en begrafenissen. Ook een traditionele goochelaar draagt vaak een hoge hoed. Het klassieke goocheltrucje is dan om een konijn uit de hoge hoed te toveren. Hier komt ook de uitdrukking uit de hoed toveren vandaan.
De hoge hoed werd wel gebruikt om onzichtbaar loterijbriefjes te kunnen trekken. Daarom wordt in de wiskunde onder de hoge-hoedmethode een eerlijke loterij verstaan.

Description and Synopsis:
On this cover, a little boy holds up a hat and appears to lecture or perform for his family. In the book, the eight-year-old boy narrator explains that he cracks eggs and puts them in a hat in the hope of giving a magic show for his family. He wants to makes the eggs disappear but is unsuccessful (Victor 24). The back cover of this book has an advertisement for a medicine, “Dr. J. Collis Browne’s Chlorodyne.”
Further Notes:
Victor was an American poet, humorist, and novelist. She wrote novels for serials and cheap magazines and sometimes used pseudonyms. When dime novels fell out of fashion, Victor put her literary efforts into writing humorous stories (“Victor, Metta Victoria (Fuller)”)
