Caution - toddler at work!

On TV, the source of inspiration for this lovely work, Mighty Machines: Power Pack. Sorry for the mess.... no, not really:-).

Budding photographer!

And here are the results.

Thank you my wonderful husband for this Christmas gift!
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens

I am just amazed that I can focus 33 cm from the subject at 100mm focal length!  

'Snapshootish' mood, window light, overcast.

ISO 1600 to 3200 f/2.8 1/200

For the love of film

Found some very old slide film in the lab over a year ago.   Kodak Select made in USA, Rochester NY by Eastman Kodak company, and carries expiration date of 11/2001.  I felt horribly sentimental dumpster diving for it... these roles are the last of their kind.  E6 processed by The Darkroom.

Library, f1.8 1/30 handheld.

I don't know what to think here, I'll give the darkroom one more chance.

Here is what it looks like at the beach.  Don't remember the exposure.  All images are unedited.  

When easel is not cutting it....

At least we love to wash our hands!

Fantastic body of work by a Finn photographer, Perttu Saksa.
I have seen great number of photographs from Pripyat, but no one noticed quite like he did how we embraced the "life giving" energy of radiation, equating it to sun.
