A room with so many possibilities…
I was clicking through my bloglines subscriptions just now and this post by Sweet Juniper jumped out at me. Partially because I love photos of abandoned places, but also because one of them stuck out as being so nice…and because I saw it as being filled with so many possibilities. When you look at this...
The weekend comes to a close at last
And it’s clear that these two are ready for bed. Don’t they look menacing sitting there waiting for me? They finally gave up and just got ready to snooze whether I decided to join them or not. Man, this is precisely the thing I love about the weekend…even when it’s ending. I hope everyone else...
Days at an early 1800′s Stone Mill
Yesterday and today are being spent working at this old mill in central pennsylvania. The weather has been nice, the food has been excellent, and cell phone reception has been noticeably absent. But here are a few pics showing the loveliness of the setting:
Max Wanger, why don’t you live in Philly so that you can photograph my wedding?
You see Max, I adore your work! There are so many of your pictures in my “inspiration file” just for photography styling alone that it pains me that you live so far away. However, flying you in from Los Angeles is probably out of the question…so I thought I’d pen this lament in hopes that...
Motel Room Voyeur
Nick has been working on a series of motel rooms. I am of course always interested to see interiors of any kind, and for some reason we both share a love of weird motels. These are a few of my favorites of his recent shots. The Pineapple Motel The Arns Motel The Bill White Motel...
A little Inspiration before the weekend: Faye Toogood
I’ve been meaning to post about stylist / creative director Faye Toogood for awhile now because I love her work so much. It seems like often when I’ve seen one of those magical photo editorials (in the World of Interiors for instance) it was Faye who helped create it. At any rate, these gorgeous...
Stormy Sunday afternoon
Today has provided us with a huge rainstorm, and hail the size of acorns. At least the clouds and light were spectacular.
Abandoned 2.0: Chernobyl & Other Disasters
First, I want to thank the commenter Sarah from my post the other day that recommended a link to Elena’s Motorcycle Rides through Chernobyl. I spent several hours looking through her images and reading her story…as well as digging through flickr trying to find more images from other photographers. I ended up discovering some work...
The Abandoned Ones
Prior to moving to the Northeast back in 2002, I’d never experienced very many abandoned houses before. I mean, of course, they exist all over the country…but never had I seen the sheer quantity of derelict & abandoned homes [and businesses] as I experienced here. Philadelphia and it’s neighboring areas astonished me with the number...
Obsessed with…Domino’s new web tool “My Deco”
Today sfgirlbybay posted about the new “My Deco” tool on the Domino website, and so I headed over there to have a peak. I have to say that I wasn’t optimistic about what I was going to find. Most of the online decorating “tools” are clunky DIY-style visualizers, but this is like an online folder...
Rustic Cathedrals…who knew they even existed?!
When I think of beautiful architecture, I rarely think of rustic landscapes or log cabins. And when someone says the word cathedral, I certainly NEVER think of simplicity and beauty of the sort that architectural photographer Richard Davies captured in his travels through rural Russia. This month’s issue of World of Interiors features his stunning...
