Something old is something new. This film camera was passed down to me from my brother and I have been itching to use it. My confidence has grown enough, that I think it is time to take it in and get ready for a stroll around the block. Can you imagine waiting to see what the picture looks like? I think this will push me even farther as a photographer.
This amazing piece of furniture is from Minst. I visited Stockholm and was able to see Cilla Hallbert's workshop. There are absolutely beautiful miniatures.
I am starting something new to me.
Thinking about it for a long time I decided to create my blog. Probably because I am social person in a way but too shy to say it out loud in a real life.

I feel that the change will not be only by this. I would love to give my photography something else. To think less about what I am doing and just do it.
A present from my uncle for our little holiday home.

I grew something new and different in my little garden this year and recently came across information on the global internets that " you can add roasted Purple Stripe garlic to vanilla ice cream and re-freeze it and it will have the taste and texture of butter brickle ice cream."
This may take me some mental prep time. I have few purple garlic heads. I would have to buy vanilla ice cream, undoubtedly the expensive wonderful kind precisely because it is wonderful. Then, after roasting up the few purple heads and mixing them with wonderful and somewhat spendy ice cream I would hope to be tasting butter brickle. If not? I would be sad. But it might be really cool to try it.
A little narcissism at home before I went to the family dinner.
I didn't really have any new cloths for Chinese New Year except for this sport coat which I picked up in Tokyo last month, it's by E.Z (Zegna's sports-casual line, ¥21,600/US$183.14). I purposely didn't wear it until that day just so I would have something new to wear.

New for me........I have been meaning to try this pattern for a while now. Had a feeling it could be done but wasn't sure how.....MAN! It was a pain in the butt to fold!! And there was quite a bit of error which I kept having to go back and adjust for, and so some of the "suns" are lop-sided. But I'm OK with that....makes 'em look a bit lozenge-like, more like flowers than suns....
I have a lot to say about this, too much....and really no time to sit down and put it all into words as things stand now....This baby was the culmination of a while, and certain ideas seemed to fall into place today with this peice....It's a beginning...excited....
Selfishly wish I had a chunk of money so i could stop with the $ scramble and concentrate on certain ideas for a few months....alas....
Always ready to tackle something new, dad showing off a cushion-cover he'd cross-stitched in a convalescent hospital in Birmingham, 1917. On the back he wrote "I look really sick, eh?" Meanwhile he had a hole in his hip that you could stick your fist into!!!
I learned something new today. The last time that I visited this graveyard I noticed a large number columns of that I thought were broken. Because of the poor condition of the cemetery I had assumed that they were broken due to wear, general damage or vandalism. However, after further investigation I discovered that a broken column indicates a life cut short, a memorial to the death of someone who died young or in the prime of life, before reaching old age.
Mount Jerome Cemetery & Crematorium is situated in Harold's Cross on the south side of Dublin, Ireland. Since its foundation in 1836, it has witnessed over 300,000 burials. Originally an exclusively Protestant cemetery, Roman Catholics have also been buried there since the 1920s.
Often referred to as "Harold's Cross Cemetery" Mount Jerome is where wealthy Victorians established monuments to themselves. They couldn't take their wealth with them so they made sure they could still flaunt it for decades and centuries to come. In many cases their attempts to impress have succumbed to the passage of time as the majority of the physical memorials are in a state of decay while many (especially those made of sandstone) are rotting away at an alarming rate. In my opinion this decay only adds to the attractiveness of the place.
If you do decide to visit the Gresham Vault where the pedestal on top of the tapered walls at one stage supported a bell with a chain running from it into the vault. This was erected with the purpose of allowing the lady who was interred (and who had a fear of being buried alive) to ring the bell if she awoke.
