The First Days of Spring Official Trailer from charlie fink on Vimeo.

I found a new photography blog.  I really like it.  While perusing that blog, I found the clip above and was transported. 

Lovely Photographs

Some days, I think it would be really great to be a photographer.  These beautiful shots via Jonas Peterson.

                       

                         

                         

                         

                       

The Formula For Success

I just discovered this quote:

Would you like me to give you a formula for success?  It's quite simple really.  Double your rate of failure.  (Thomas J. Watson)

I have said before that I have so many ideas, so many ideas swirling around the maelstrom of my mind.  And, I find it difficult to start, to give them a chance.  This book advises to devote a little bit of time each day or each week to some of them and see what happens.  You never know what you might attract.  So, basically, throw yourself into your ideas and see how the world and you react!  I really need to get started!

PS  The image at left is from uber-talented Eleanor Hardwick, a very successful fashion photographer who is amazingly all of 15!!!.  See more of Eleanor's dreamy work via her Flickr account here or her website!

Emma Watson In Teen Vogue

Have you seen the Emma Watson photoshoot for Teen Vogue's August, 2009 issue?  The composition is fabulous and elegant.  Enjoy.

 

 

 

                

Marie Antoinnette Hues

These heavenly photos from Anna Wolf remind me of the Miss Dior commercial directed by Sofia Coppola recently.  Do you not love them?

This little film incorporates all that is beautiful:  Paris, a soft breeze, happy music, lightness, and joy.  And, aren't the hues reminescent of Sofia's Marie Antoinnette?  Enjoy.

           

Lovely, n'est pas?

Anna Wolf - Cool Photographer No. 1

 

I found the photographer Anna Wolf yesterday while blog surfing and I am smitten!  Anna has worked for Free People, Urban Outfitters, Domino Magazine and Lucky, among others!  Her work is breathtaking and will take you away.  Peruse her site here and stop by her blog.  If you would like to see her home in Brooklyn, check out this post at DesignSponge !  Enjoy.  

Spell With Flickr

                                     

                  

Ooooh, this new website is too cool for words and way too much fun!  Created by a New Jersey fella, SpellWithFlickr lets you spell with flickr letter images.  The interface is simple: input your word in to a text box and boom!, out comes your word spelled in flickr letters.  If you are not happy with the image shown for a particular letter, simply click on the letter to choose a new image!  I can think of lots of uses for these images:  blogs, ETSY shop banners, invitations, stationery.  The list is endless ... happy font skipping!

Morning.

Morning near the window.  Morning.  New beginnings.
