vintage effect



hello hello! today i'm sharing photos taken with one of my film cameras. a vintage thirty five mm pentax i found at a flea market. a super lucky score! these are untouched, with the exception of the last one. its had this effect applied. when i got these back from the lab,  i saw that i'd taken just two photos of this sunset. there were many people on the beach that night that claimed it was the most spectacular sunset they'd ever seen. i felt this way too. perhaps that is why i took this and then stood agape in wonder.

i think i told you i didn't paint the little rock house or rock grandma. but i did paint these blocks. i'd
forgotten about them (till the rock love), these cute wee blocks. it may have been twenty but more like twenty five years ago that i made these for my children. (can't believe i misspelled puzzle, eeps!) i recently took them over to a wood worker friend and asked him if he could cut a few more blocks like this please. i think i'd like to make some more.

happy birthday to my baby boy, my youngest son, who will be twenty three tomorrow! do you remember
these puzzle blocks honey? love you so very much son.
