Fall sky

I had to stop and take a photo of the moon on my drive home from work tonight.  Funny how the moon always looks smaller on the photo!

Happy experiment

We are constantly experimenting......99% of the time they go in the trash........and then every once in a while I keep them around...they show promise......what do you think????  Stay posted to see how this experiment evolves.....

Interiors to learn from!

Right now I am obsessed with black and white.......what is it, how can you stretch the parameters.  You will be seeing some black and white experimentation in the days to come.  By the way I LOVE this room....black and white but......NOT black and white :)


One can be obsessed with black and white and then..............along comes pink and sable with a touch of flame blue............be still my heart


And then there is emerald silver and white.....................


These stunning interiors are from 'Alberto Pinto's Orientalism'  one of the afore mentioned favorites
