lindsay's exiled vox

calendar number two

I had asked my sister for her opinion on the last shot for my calendar, mentioned in my previous post. I didn't go with her suggestion, but her insistence on a preference for a more whimsical fare inspired me to make a second calendar. I had been going back through all my photos (I've taken over 6,000 in the past two years) to find the right shot for the first calendar, and in doing so I found quite a few that I'd totally forgotten about. Some really cool ones. I don't know how they ever slipped my mind. Anyway, my second calendar is lindsay's whimsy and can be found here:

And these are two of my favourite shots featured in it. I may upload a few others to my flickr later, but for now you can't go wrong with a couple strings of rubber chickens!

so hungry it's not even funny

You know you have to keep track of the days somehow, why not do it with some of my best shots from around Seattle?

I've also got two new Christmas cards, featuring Pike Place Market.
So visit my zazzle store now!

These are just a few of the photos you'll find inside:

Proceeds go to someone hit by the economy's stupidity.

...Otherwise she'd just buy copies for her family for Christmas and surprise them. Sorry. The gift will have to be the work itself.

decked out market

Pike Place Market, like most public spaces, is now decked out for the holidays. I swung by tonight real quick and got a couple shots in. It was rainy, though, so I didn't stay long. I will probably go back and try to re-take the second shot without a person in it so I can make it into a card or something. But, with the first shot, I think I now have my December photo for the 2009 Seattle calendar I am going to sell on zazzle. I still have to make the final selection for the other eleven, but I hope to get it done this week. So stay tuned!

i caught a crow

Every now and then insomnia rewards you. I actually went outside at 7:00 am... because I was still awake... up to my roof... and I remembered my camera. Then I met the crow as he landed on the weather vane of another crow.

Which way the wind blows

space needle banner

Banner - lilacs & needle

The sun was shining on my roof this morning. Then I noticed for the first time that we had lilacs up there! So I snapped a photo and made it into a banner. If anybody out there is longing for a pretty smelling bit of Seattle for their vox, let me know and I will share.

gorgeous grey day!

But how? I am sure you are inquiring. It is cold and as dark as twilight, you say, and the sky is practically sweating.  Well, my friend, I'm afraid this is one media source I can't upload to Vox to share with you.

The whole of 4th Avenue from Ralph's to the space needle is filled with the smell of magnolias! Ahhhhhhhhh! I just couldn't stop breathing!

love-love. springtime!

i found something smelly

underpass

Look! Spring is coming! Really it is!
Too bad you can't smell the picture.
Quick, go to your local home and garden store and smell a flower if you can't find one on the street.
I'll stay here and work on that age old scratch-n-sniff internet idea.

love-love. Lindsay

welcome to the social

[In the front of Dean's Transmissions on 4th Ave.]

This photo marks the first of many that will come your way. Seattle has rekindled my interests in photography.
I used to have to pack up, get in the car, think of some place to go where I might find interesting subjects, drive there, get there and not find much, and even though I would want to wait to see what happened I would suddenly have to pee. (whew.) But in Seattle I see stuff every time I go anywhere. Of course I don't always have my camera with me, and never yet had my new good one out on a sunny day, but no matter. I've caught some fun stuff with my phone, too.

welcome to my social...

love-love. lindsay
