4x4 inch (matte size) picture or photo frame.
Made from recycled flooring from a green deconstructed house in south Buffalo, New York. several houses were deconstructed and the materials salvaged by Action Reuse (reuseaction.com or see their photo set on flickr). The houses were removed for expansion of a nearby hospital. the wood is flooring that is approximately 100 years old and is yellow pine. It bears the mark of years and untold numbers of feet tromping across it. Most was/is being recycled into new flooring but I liked the color and grain and marking on it. The original tongue can be seen around the edges and the former groove is now the rabbet that holds the glass. Each piece is mitered and biscuit joined together so they are quite sturdy.
The glass is also reclaimed from old stock or salvaged window frames. Each is finished with water based polyurethane finish and has keyholes for hanging. The only parts that aren't recycled are the biscuits, glue and glazier's points so they are ecologically friendly (if only a little in the total scheme). But these make a beautiful statement about the the preciousness and the futility of throwing so much away in the landfills.
Computer designed highly detailed film frame with space for your text or image. Nice grunge element for your projects. More images like this in my portfolio
Art consists of limitation. The most beautiful part of every picture is the frame. - Gilbert K. Chesterton
Shot for the "Framing" Challenge in Compositionally Challenged Group. It was -4 feeling like -11 C when I went for a wee walk this morning - great start to an interesting day.
The timber framed Merchant`s House was built in 1558 by the Lylley family of dyers
In 1962 the house wad demolished and a local group saved the timbers, and it was rebuilt, leading to the first exhibit at the Avoncroft Museum of Historic Buildings in 1967.
Old & new, in the foreground the modified frame, in the background out of focus is the original piece of frame tube that had to be removed.
The natural frame afforded by the dark interior to the relative brightness outside. The pinholes of light leaking from the wall give a little dimension to an otherwise unintersting surface.
I stood on the shore looking at the statue of the Maori Warrior at the entrance to the Port of Tauranga.
As the ship sailed past, I took five photos from exactly the same viewpoint and then joined them together to make the ship complete. There is of course only one statue.

I was on the fence about this shot originally. I kept going back and forth on it because I thought the legs of the stilt performer distracted from the singer. In the end I looked at it as the stilts being a frame for the picture itself. So it worked out in the end for a unique shot.

I finally pick up a Karen Wilson bag. She's a local/Canadian designer. I remember first encountering her products on the Danforth and being shocked by the sticker price from a relatively new/unknown brand. When I saw her products at the Clothing Show a couple years ago I clutched onto a really nice clasp bag only to place it gingerly back on the shelf (due to the price tag). I couldn't help it with this gathered frame purse that I had been eying from Cat's Cradle (596 Yonge Street). I actually stopped in to look at a dress in the window... and well, I don't think I need to say any more.
After 3 nights of camping in Mt. Rainier National Park we definitely enjoyed the amenities at our A-frame cabin in Packwood that we rented through Airbnb. Post shower satisfaction! Photo by Al
My pictures have been framed. We're moving into a new office at work and they're using my photos all over the building. I am incredibly honored! (This is SO COOL!)
For the first time since I started posting on flickr, we decided to frame and mat and display some of my photos. This was taken during our trip to Georgia Southern University. We hung the photo in our bedroom. See the original photo here.
