On the cold first week of January after the New Year, I was in visiting NYC.
The bitterly cold, damp weather encouraged me to stay away from the street scenes but ventured to explore with my camera the infinite number of interesting indoor places. I narrowed down the infinite options to a short list.
The far less intimidating size of (JP) Morgan Library and Museum and its precious collections are photographic gems for all photographers.
I went to the corner of this dimly lit library of rare books and maps, lied on the floor and pointed my 10mm lens (=15mm FF, ISO1000, 1/15th sec hand-held) at the gorgeous ceiling (with all the linear distortion included
I found these on display and in a framed and protected glass showcase. They do make a very beautiful and colourful display. I believe these were made by a local Glass Blower Artist SOL residing in the West Vancouver area who I understand is now retired. The photo was. taken in downtown Vancouver where his work was on display near a fountain. I have a small glass hanging vase from him. I have seen him blow glass when he was still active.
A little bit of order found in a child's room.

This photograph showcases three exquisitely crafted vessels, likely historical artifacts, displayed in a museum setting. The vessels are the focal point, their intricate designs and luxurious materials immediately drawing the viewer's attention. The composition is clean and focused, with the white surface providing a neutral backdrop that emphasizes the richness of the vessels.

Visitors stroll through the warm, textured corridors of the Honolulu Museum of Art (HoMA), where ceramic treasures rest quietly in glass cases and soft pendant lights cast a golden glow across slate-tiled floors.
The architecture blends rustic elegance with tropical charm—arched passageways, stucco walls, and wooden beams guiding guests deeper into the museum’s curated calm. Each step is a dialogue between past and present, art and atmosphere, as the museum invites reflection, discovery, and a moment of stillness amid the vibrant pulse of Honolulu.

Spotted through a shop window in Perth, this adorable Winnie the Pooh figurine captures hearts with its soft texture and playful expression. Adorned with a little bee on its nose and a bright red shirt, this charming piece evokes nostalgia and the joy of childhood. A delightful find that embodies the whimsy of Perth’s creative spirit!

Corner Bakery: Whether you live in a small town or a big city, there's always that place...the neighborhood bakery that the locals go to on weekend mornings (or days off from work!)....an old-fashioned shop where they still make the pastries, cakes and breads by hand right in the back...and put them on display in glass cases for you to salivate over (and shoot thru). YUM.
Being thankful: For a fast metabolism...one that allows me to enjoy these treats once in a while without becoming doughy myself. :)~

I visited the House of Nobility the year, since I got the thumbs up to photograph the interior. The Blue Room holds some exquisite 18th century East of India porcelain.
I keep holding out for the Curry Flavored macaroons. I have heard the whiskey ones are tasty but I'm still holding out for the curry.
Glass figurine of a Hummingbird sitting on a display counter. Show me something shiny and I will want to photograph it!
A Goldsmiths/Silversmiths/Jewellers fine display of opulence, fine workmanship and exclusive showrooms - as a contrast to yesterdays rustic bridge and rural setting! Where was it and who was the owner? Answers on a postcard please.....
Thanks and applause today to BeachcomberAustralia who not only submitted an answer by postcard, but was adjudged to have quickly and impressively won today's postal competition - by identifying this as Sharman D. Neill's jewellers and silversmiths. We have visited the exterior of Sharman D. Neill's at Donegall Place, Belfast previously. It seems possible that this interior image was taken as part of the same commission - maybe even soon after or marking the opening of the new premises in 1903. As we learned previously, this jeweller and ornament merchant had been in business at a number of different premises in this part of Belfast since the mid to late 19th century, and opened this shop early in the 20th century...

Mummies of Ancient Eggypt: Rediscovering 6 Lives
From July 14 to October 26, the CaixaForum Madrid cultural space hostsed an exhibition made up of a collection of objects on loan from the British Museum in London, which explores the idea of mummification and analyzes the testimony of six people who lived in the Ancient Egypt.
This sample contains six mummies of people who lived between 900 and 150 BC. C. in Egypt. Thus, through a non-invasive investigation carried out with the most modern technology, the discoveries that have been achieved by the hand of these specimens are exhibited.
Through scientific and historical evidence, it is possible to observe what life was like in these lands, the tools and techniques used for mummification, the medicinal recipes with which they were cured, the diet of those people, cosmetics and adornments, music, cultural exchanges and even the role of women and children in the Egypt of the pharaohs.
Mummification became a common practice in ancient Egypt, believing that the body had to be preserved in order to reach the afterlife. For them death was just the beginning and this represented the separation between the body and the soul.
The first mummies are dated between 4000 and 3000 BC. C. and it is thought that this practice could have come from accidentally unearthing some corpses, which had dried due to the heat of the desert. By keeping much of their physical appearance, they tried to manually mimic this preservation. In this way, they dried the deceased by extracting the viscera from the body and then dehydrated them with natron and embalmed them.
