optimism (n.) : Three pavement cafes in quick succession on a Glasgow sidestreet on a very dull February afternoon.
a wee bit of shameless HDR.

Love it or hate it, it was invented in 1902.
Our new meusum tableau looks at the Edwardian age of optimism and invention. So many new "life changing" inventions came out of this period

Day 3
Smiley was optimistic, despite the overwhelming evidence that he was about to meet his watery doom. “Always look on the bright side” he said to himself cheerfully “someone will rescue me and love me soon, look here comes a photographer”. Smiley is still awaiting his salvation, it doesn’t pay to get too involved with your subjects.

My laughter was equally unbridled, so much so that I missed getting the shot where the "spoonful" landed in Eddie's lap.

… OK, it’s probably not a problem estate. But it looks like it could be. Perched on the edge of a large town, designed in the late sixties by well-meaning bearded architects, these houses seem to be reaching EOL (end of life). I doubt that the green spaces offer much comfort. Phil and Kirsty are nowhere to be seen. The bus services have been cut back. Like an open prison with no fence … the lingering spirit of archigram-like optimism now entirely crushed by the realities of human habitation and the insidious decay of the ‘natural’ materials …
I like to spend new year's eve being yelled at by the waitstaff at Empire (lets be real, its just the one lady. the other people who work their are angels) and watching ny1 on the flat screen behind the ultra stinky sushi bar. seriously i do. luckily i've got two best buds who are pretty much into the same shit as me...
This photo goes with yesterday's, and just happens to fit today's theme. Many of you wondered what my husband was making in yesterday's photo, so I thought I'd take a picture to show you. This is a 2 1/2" scale rail truck he is making, and it is modeled after a real one. It will run on 7 1/2" wide track. He started this project last September, and at the time he was pessimistic about whether or not he'd live long enough to finish it. He had just been through 2 rounds of intensive chemotherapy and it wasn't working. Last summer, spring and fall were really rough, as he went through a total of 4 different cancer treatments, none of which were successful in stopping his cancer's progression. By September we were starting to feel pretty pessimistic. He started this project because he needed something to work on, and maybe there was a little bit of optimism there that he would be able to finish it. But in November he started in a clinical trial using a new cancer drug that has proven to be highly effective. His cancer is regressing, he's feeling great, and we are optimistic that he will not just finish this project, but live to finish a few more.
