"Forbidden Fruit by Monique (Moni) Beebe,
the December 2019/January 2020 exhibition @ Nitroglobus.
I am really happy to present for the 4th time an exhibition by my SL and RL friend Monique (Moni) Beebe.
Next to images in her more 'usual' sensuous, evocative style which present studies of the female body (her own), Moni got inspired by a RL exhibition of famous Dutch photographer Erwin Olaf, which she visited last Spring in the Gemeente Museum The Hague. Especially the mood of the early series 'Squares' and 'Chessmen' by Mr Olaf you will notice are reflected in some of the images of this present exhibition 'Forbidden Fruit'.
For those not familiar with the works of Erwin Olaf, here's a link to his work: www.erwinolaf.com/art
Moreover, Kai Kohime created an awesome mesh vulptuous female sculpture, that fits perfectly with the exhibition.
I hope you will enjoy this end of the year exhibition as much as I do.
Dido Haas, owner/curator

Notes:
- Expiration date : Unknown
- Shot date : 10/2024
- Box speed : ISO 640 Multi (100-1000)
- Shot speed: ISO 640
Memo :
I wasn't sufficiently informed and attentive ; I shouldn't have simply placed this film in an full automatic point & shoot camera. I knew the film was a multispeed film (ISO 100-1000), but I didn't know that its DX code corresponded to ISO 640. I naively thought that the camera would define the film as ISO 100, but this was clearly not the case (...). The result? Lots of noise, alterations and other limitations. Who knows what this expired film would have looked like if it had been used between ISO 50 and ISO 100 (?)... Well, you learn as long as you live. It's still a good experience/memory, though.

This little ice crystal is in the exact shape of an eighth note! (Click on my photo to view it large.)

Frost and ice in Florida? Yes! We have many winter days with temps (F) in the 20s. Hard freezes and frost are not uncommon. One year it was so cold that the giant wild pythons in the Everglades were freezing to death, and it even got to freezing temps in the Keys. Not anywhere near as severe as the NY winters I used to experience, but 25 degrees anywhere is cold!
These are micro shots of ice crystals from the frost on various bits of vegetation in my yard. I have to shoot them early in the morning because even the heat from my breath will start them to melting, and even if the temp is 30F, when the sun hits the yard the frost vanishes in minutes so I have to move fast.

Note, this is a "cross view" stereo image - to see it in 3D, you need to cross your eyes so that you see 3 images, then look at the one in the middle.
Hello and welcome to another edition of "What one could expect to see while meandering around Bill's apartment" (Until Sales and Marketing comes up with a new title, we're going with that one for brand recognition.)
I figured that with the previous post of lobster, I'll keep the food thing going. After all, it does meet the criteria of "....what one could expect..."
As the title suggests, this is a new addition to my (already pretty decent) cooking repertoire. White pizza! This one is half plain and half spinach and mushrooms. I had the whole thing polished off in no short order....I was hungry and I'm oh so happy with the product.
Barring some outlandishly-fantastic-so truly-awesome food item, I hereby swear that this will be (at least for the time being) the end of the food-related posts. There's plenty more to shoot in the rest of my apartment.
One last note:
I will accept orders for delivery. Depending on location, prices start at $149.00.For a limited time, I am offering new customers a 10% off their total order. Hurry! Supplies are limited! (Batteries not included; some assembly required; actual product may differ in size and appearance; some exclusions apply; void where prohibited; see store for details)

Found two of my husband's grandfather's ledgers in a drawer in the garage. It reminded me so much of the Field Notes notebook, I had to photograph them together. However, Grandpa's "Field Notes" has much more cred containing, as it does, all kinds of planting and farming tables in the back, and tractor info. Mine contains dirty stories and notes on the bathroom tile.
Just thought I'd add more info in light of the additional visitors the past few days: Grandpa was a real farmer right here in Los Angeles before it got so crowded. He immigrated in 1908 from the Basque country on the border between Spain & France. He started with a dairy farm in the neighborhood of El Sereno for about 20 years, then moved to Alhambra (so his four lovely daughters would have easy access to the big city) and ran a hay farm in the nearby neighborhood of Monterey Park. There's no evidence anymore of these farms other than photos, these ledgers, and a few milk bottles and scraps of rather terrifying cattle equipment in the back of our garage.
My husband and I live in the 1936 house in Alhambra that grandpa bought to be closer to the hay farm. A friend of mine lives just down the road in what used to be the middle of the farm. It's so fascinating to me to imagine what Los Angeles used to be like - say when Grandpa arrived from France in 1908, or when his daughters were running around in 1930's LA, making shopping trips, going to movies in the old movie houses, riding the Red Cars, going over the border to Mexico for some partying.

I keep a paper record of the photos I add to my two 365 groups. This is the list for the daily self-portrait group 365 Days of which (by dint of long-service) I'm one of the admins.
You will note that this is photograph 3543 of my daily selfies. Early in 2007 I saw Flickr folk posting daily self-portraits but I'd missed the obvious starting point of the First of January so I waited until my 65th birthday on 21 April 2007
The hereios of the We're Here! group have paid a visit to a group which we have each set up for the purpose. I have set up the Bulldog clips group. Admission is free to all, but submissions will be ruthlessly moderated. BULLDOG is a registered trademark of Brandsley Limited which is licensed to Faire Bros & Co Limited. Its registration as a trademark in the United Kingdom dates back to 1944.
Stuck for an idea for your daily 365 shot? Try the hereios of the We're Here! group for inspiration.
The hair! The faces on the people around them........the doorman who you can't see in this photo that asked them to "calm the dancing down". Hahahahahahahahahaha!
I have seriously started a Lauren Fanclub. She's the person who gets the most comments & favourites out of all my photos. I think I can safely say you can 'hire' her for a party for the small price of getting her really, really drunk.....
She is also a free spirit now that she graduated today.....That is correct people....she is also very intelligent as well as being a pretty face.......(pretty sure she has an English degree now or something)
She is going travelling throughout Europe this summer so if you want her to come to your party let me know!
