This finch had some very fine, almost hairlike feathers that promptly showed up. Such a beautiful little bird.
One last piece of vintage machinery from Thomas Edison's machine shop.
There are some great pieces of industrial history here, but the light can be a bit challenging for a photographer, due to the big windows. Guess I need to go back for a longer visit on a cloudy day in the winter...
"Spirituality is like a thin-thin thread, that if delicately followed guides us from darkness to light; from poverty to abundance and from destruction to safety."

I have always wondered what was all that stuff on top of Scripps Pier. I was shocked to find out that there were toy boats up there!
This is "Kaga Temari". Japanese traditional handcraft.
Winding the chunk of cotton by a color thread until it forms a precise sphere.

I wanted a quick quilting project for a petit four basket to use up some fat quarters. I found this variegated thread that I thought would be different to use.
I should add my quick projects are often not very quick.

“Silver thread through the Rockies” the advertising agent wrote in the 1950’s for the California Zephyr. Now more than 70 years later the phrase still stands true. @amtrak Number 5, the California Zephyr is seen here going through the Rockies, not around them and shimmers in the beautiful winter morning light along the amazing Flatirons. .

I couldn't resist this vintage thread holder and made no promises to sew more if I bought it.
W.A. Young Machine Shop and Foundry
Rices Landing, PA
This shop was built in 1900. It was closed in 1969 and left the way it was on its last day of operation with machinery and tools dating as far back as 1870.
The shop is beside the Monongahela River in southwestern Pennsylvania. It specialized in repairing barges, tug boats, and other river vessels and making replacement parts.
Even the tiny metal shavings or filings remain on the tools.

Still exploring my wife's sowing stuff. I spent plenty of time getting lots of colour shots of reels of thread, but I couldn't really make anything work. This was a bit of a throw-away shot, but it's the best of a bad bunch.

An Ancient Chinese proverb says, “An invisible red thread connects those destined to meet, despite the time, the place, and despite the circumstances. The thread can be tightened or tangle, but will never be broken.”

This is my freestyle, actually for the past week, but could not upload due to finals!
Once I finish my exhibition I'm planning just too many new shoots, totally different styles (even wedding!) and in all that I hope I find some time to make some short films -mainly for practice!
And I love the idea of Project 104. I'm thinking, creating and at the same time allowing myself to work on other stuff too. Which is great.
Also, I have no idea what will I do for Uni. Will I continue, will I stop?
One thing for certain, I will be applying for scholarships. Anything related to art.
