Frederika and Friends.

Frederika spends her days looking at me. Surrounded by her friends, she sees me work and eat and talk and watch video's on Youtube with absolute devotion.

And I cannot be bothered cos she keeps me company. That corner of the living room table would be so lonely without her, without them! Not to mention the dollies at the back. So many tiny eyes, all watching me while daydreaming dolls dreams.

 

I hope you liked this blog. If so, leave a comment, and see you next time. Thank you!!

Rust & Steel photography: looking inside The Centennial.

Peering through a window of the ancient, "Centennial" dolls house, one can almost sense its silent magic. 

There is something bewitching about the old walls, the crooked doors, the dusty floors. The sheer stillness and beauty of the place, so quiet, makes it a joy to photograph! While editing the result of my latest photo shoot, I suddenly noticed something on one of the pics that I hadn't noticed when I was taking them. Right there, on the top part of the green door: is that... an 'orb'?

I may be inclined to think that those are mere reflections of dust particles, a common phenomenon that occurs in low-light circumstances, when a camera flash is used. However, no flash was used here, as the room was quite bright. So..., could that 'orb' mean that the three little sisters were at play again? Maybe they were simply curious about the 'new' artifacts placed in the room, and were checking them out.. Whatever the case may be, I hope they're happy!

 

That's all for now, folks. Thanks for visiting, keep safe, and see you next time!

The Conservatory: A nightly snapshot.

 Hi all, I hope you're doing well!

As the 'Conservatory' project nears completion, I take little breaks amidst the work in progress to play a bit with my camera. Here's an atmospheric, 'nocturnal' snapshot of the conservatory's front garden. I tried to recreate the beautiful, mysterious atmosphere of the movies from the 1930s, 40s, and 50s that I love so much, and I think I succeeded pretty well in doing that.

Now I want you to look at this photo, and imagine a late summer night in a garden; the cool fresh air of the night caressing your face, the faint scent of flowers, a cricket performing his nocturnal serenade...  Get the picture?

 

That's all for now folks; keep safe and see you next time!
