Been very much on and off with my photography these days - and not from choice I might add! However, when I have managed to be active I've really enjoyed myself.
These white daisy chrysanths are from a bunch I treated myself to and I thought I'd set up a still life using one of my craft-paper backgrounds and some antique wedding lace . The very small cut glass vase is one I'd picked up from a charity shop.
The original pic was overall pale blue/turquoise , which I liked but decided in the end to post this post-processd image , which reduced the colour to almost nothing.
maybe i should have bought this bag??
am not sure if this was from a painting or a picture but it translates nicely onto a black background :)
just because
Daisy is normally doing the zoomies or terrorizing the Christmas tree but she was way too quiet so I went searching for her and found her chilling in my daughters room just like this. I took a photo and texted it to my daughter and she was happy to know that Daisy likes to sit on her bed just like our old cat used to do. This is the only photo I ended up taking today so into my 365 days project it goes.
Thanks for your visit! I hope you had a great day. :)
I see these flowers and I can't help singing, "Daisy, Daisy..." as HAL did in his last moments in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. Curious, I looked up why HAL sang that song. Apparently it was HAL's homage to his ancestor, the IBM 7094 which as the first computer to every "sing" back in 1961, singing the song Daisy Bell by Harry Dacre, 1892. If you didn't know, the name HAL is one letter advance of IBM (H comes before I, A comes before B, L comes before M). Essentially, meaning HAL was more advanced that IBM. I'm pretty sure in 1968, when 2001: A Space Odyssey was produced, IBM computers were considered cutting edge. So naming the computer in the movie, HAL, made is seem really futuristic
