Completed photos from this year's Fountaindale Public Library Annual Holiday Memories Family Photo Day program.
So I decided to get more interesting motives. One way would be taking portraits of strangers. This is my first time actively asking somebody for permission to take their picture.
I spent the whole day looking for interesting people, wondering how I was going to approach them. This needed to be different to the secretive shot-in-a-crowd picture. I know that I'm only good with people I know, somehow it helps find the right moment.
So not only did I want their permission, I also needed to find out something about them beforehand.
The picture didn't work out quite that way; I took an easy route. Anna sells newspapers, and she was the only friendly person in the subway station. After passing her, I turned around, bought a paper. I told her of my dilemma, that I had been worrying about failing on the first day of my own assignment.
I guess buying the newspaper wasn't really cheating, as it helped me talk to her, but it definitely was an excuse.
The shot took only a minute, I was too nervous talking to a complete stranger, so finding a good light and neutral background didn't allow much waiting for a more personal expression.
On the other hand, the portrait captures what made me stop and walk back in the first place, an earnest smile. Thank you, Anna.
I completed this this afternoon. I used a vintage leaf button for the closure. It's very soft and cozy; I hope she likes it.

and now we have knobs! jadeite, to match the lovely jadeite dishes my maternal grandmother has been kindly gifting us with each year for christmas. nice little fern in the corner. top doors next... we were going to leave some of them off permanently, but today i remembered earthquakes, so now we are thinking harder. and oh, the irony: the stovetop (newish and untouched in the work we've done) developed a short on thursday and we're living on takeout. ohhh the universe's sense of humor has no end!

D26693vs. Worm's Head on The Gower in South Wales is an off shore headland, connected to the mainland by a rocky causeway. But this causeway is only passable at low tide, so care is needed when crossing to make sure that there is sufficient time to return before the tide comes in again. People often get stranded over there - and this includes the famous Welsh poet Dylan Thomas!
On the occasion of my visit the tide came in and Worm's Head causeway rapidly disappeared under the rising waters. Several people were cut off and stranded on Worm’s Head so the coastguards called out the inshore lifeboat to come and rescue them.
Mission completed, the RNLI inshore lifeboat turns for home.
This area has the World’s second highest tidal range which can be up to 49 feet / 15 metres and more details of Worm's Head can be found here:

Leave slack here with the jumpers. I added about 3" onto the end of the 30" rod, (17M) to bring the swr down some. After the weather gets warmer (blustery 20 deg. F now) I will add the 12" as suggested in the link below.

One of my first photos of the completed tank, before fish were added. The rocks in the tank are a mixture of petrified wood and river stones. I built the stand myself and stained the cabinet doors with a Monstera leaf pattern.
