 That's actually Lenny-named-after-John-Lennon-but-unofficially-was-known-as-Ivan-Petrovych's hat that got passed on to Linda who has never been too much into Christmas fashion... so Mummi stole it. |
Perfection does not exist.
Jan. 25th, 2012 08:21 am| Once again here a dilemma that I am often faced with - there is a photo that is terrible from a technical point of view and yet it's my favourite of that certain subject. Take for example the photo below, there are three more photos under the cut and at the first one there shows the structure of the flower in a much clearer manner than this one... and yet it has no soul. This one, there is just something in that light on the side, the transparency of the leaves, the out-of-focusness of the middle part, it's interesting and not bare! So yep, so far that's my favourite photo of the year.  ( +3 - the middle stems are rather fluffy ) |

| There are entries for which I wish I could include most of the photos outside of the LJ-cut because I think they're worth it... This is what I woke up to one Saturday (or Sunday, can't remember) last month... and overall the sky here has been rather awesome during the following storms.  ( +5 - and reds and blues and blacks ) |
"wow" as Cassie would say.

If kids watch this, no wonder sometimes their behaviour is questionable. Then again maybe that's how the world is and I've been lucky to live in a nice little bubble that does not involve smoking, drugs, heavy drinking and random sex. Heck, even my views on alcohol would probably be considered as scandalously prude by many because I really see no reason to drink besides a casual drink (and stuff worth drinking, not the cheap crap) with peeps once in a while, I certainly don't see any sense in getting drunk or drinking by yourself. Oh, I guess I must just be lucky to have found happiness elsewhere than at the bottom of a bottle of cheap wine, whatever floats your boat, as my 7th grade maths teacher would say... Hopefully my 70 year old self will be glad that my intoxication experimenting nights can be counted on my fingers (and perhaps toes), perhaps thanks to the stupid drunkies that plague a lot of écoles around here, especially on Thursday nights, they are such trainwrecks that after seeing one or two I decided not to follow their steps. Do I sound like a total prude for a 25 year old? In the end, I'll just be really glad that I've found my way And in terms of being happy, these photos make me happy. There is just that certain something that pleases me about them.  ( +3 - quand on aime... ) |
The lamppost in Narnia.
Nov. 24th, 2010 09:02 pmA few days ago I was asked a question about the photos I post. Most of them are there to serve as reminders of some specific things and they might not have any quality to them. There are some that I just fall in love with, mainly because there are imperfections that make them perfect. Such as the photo below. From a technical point of view there are many things which are not perfect but they all work.  And then there is that lamp on the bottom on the right. That detail makes the photo what it is. |
