Reading all these...

Reading all these at the same times. Not literally at the same time with the four open at once. That would make my arms tired.

Twilight




If I'd known when I started reading the first book that I would become so engrossed in this story, I might have saved them for a holiday where I would have had whole 24 hour periods with nothing to do but read. As it turned out, I had to grab 15 minutes here and there between work and classes and then stay up till 2am every night because I couldn't bare to put it down. Now I've bought the dvd I intend to stop watching only when the disc is so used that its worn down and there is no image on the screen. Ha!

Photographer | Ramona Rosales





I really love Ramona's use of colour, light and the variety of compositions in the portraits. I'm so excited I had to share :-)

Cristina Guitan


Going to a friend's exhibition on Thursday night in Dalston 'Portraits of My Life as a Bird.' Cristina is an Illustrator and often exhibits her work on a large scale. I'm especially looking forward to this exhibition as I rocked up to the last one at Shunt in London Bridge to find I was a week late!
On her website this is how her latest exhibition is described: ‘Portraits of My Life as a Bird’ explores the nature and aesthetics of the hybrid. Throughout history, mythical hybrids such as the chimera were used to describe fantastic yet vulnerable power. Courtesy of rapid advances in genetic manipulation, humanity is now on the verge of holding such power. Liberated from biology and ethical oversight, ‘Portraits of My Life as a Bird’ is a playful imagining of this genetically mutated future.

Homer the Flickr Celebrity Dog




Found this cutie on Flickr and have to say I'm loving the photos. It's not helping dispell my need to run out and get a little Jack Russell to cuddle and throw balls in the park for.
