I'm looking for a dresser so I went to this vintage store. There were some interesting dressers and many many goodies. I didn't buy the dresser yet but got the 3 tiny soldiers.
More photos form my last weekend walks with be. She discovered this narrow alley where all sorts of "brick art" was exposed. I really liked this poem. You can click on the photos to see them bigger.
The Festival Transamérique presented the fabulous Transports exceptionnels by Beau Geste Company. Danced by Philippe Priasso and a mechanical shovel (operated by William Defresne) on the powerful and moving voice of Maria Callas, a love/hate relationship unfolds before us. I was "transported" by the fragility, danger, strenght, commitment, beauty of this unique performance. If it goes to a park near you, I highly recommand it!
I had a very busy and fun weekend. My friend be from Sweeden came for 4 days (she's now in New York, lucky her!) and we visited Montreal. We walked a lot and took tons of photos that I will show during the next days.
I'm almost done with my museums gigs. I'm happy and sad at the same time. I was working with a great team and I learned a lot from them! I will miss our silly lunch breaks and the absurd humor of my office mate. I hope I will have the chance to visit the museums soon. They're all far from Montreal, a 6 hours drive for the farthest.
This week I had time to participate to corner view, sipping my café under a flowered tree.
Two more holga photos. Those were taken inside and the light wasn't good enough. Plus, I forgot to advance the film on the second one, so I have two shots on the same photo. Ha! It's this kind of accident that I like experimenting with holga.
So here are my two last polaroids ever. I'm a bit sad. But I think my camera was kind of broken, it was very unstable. I simple breeze would trigger the button. I couldn't bring it anywhere with me but around the house. At least, this last session made me want to do more analog photos. Stay tuned for that. Meantime, if you wish to see a bit more polaroid of mine, you can here.
I went to the camera store yesterday and made a stop at Le roi du smoke meat (King of Smoke Meat), a Montreal secret landmark. Travel guides will send you at Schwartz's, which is a great place too, but le roi is off the beaten tourist path. Don't be fooled by the photo, the place was filled by local customers. Here's the address.
I'm having a restful and rainy weekend. Watched Some episodes of Carnivàle. Have you seen this series?
I know, more magnolias. But I couldn't resist!
