weekly glee #7 2009.

hello m'dears, it's time for gleeful things again!

i decided to split this project in 3 parts which will be 'desertions', 'photogenius', and 'diversity'.

because every week i find something wonderful in those sections.


1. desertions.


# decaying detroit by caseyj. metropolitan building and a warehouse in the warehouse district. beautiful compositions! i especially loved the chair ones and the one with the toilet ( poop here! haha ).
# montzen by elektrocute. handsome abandoned trainstation or depot! i love the details in here, like the bird nest or the blue doors.
# three shelters by dj_axle. i have a huge interest in all kind of churches, because the architectural work is one of the greatest humans ever invented. this church is situated in buffalo and called church of transfiguration. and oh, and what a church it is. truly gorgeous in its decay.

2. photogenius.


# keira knightley by annie leibovitz for vogue us 2005. a wizard of oz-based photoshoot by the wonderful annie leibovitz! oh the colours in these! purr-fect!
# mariacarla boscono by peter lindbergh. i really think that mariacarla boscono has some features you can't forget. her face is very remarkable to me. not that average beautiful face of a model, but something different, more subtle and hidden.
# photography of hedi slimane. he's doin' the greatest portaits ever ( including jethro cave, remember? there's LOTS of jethro in this mix of photographic works. ) and don't be put off by the many young man at the beginning of the post! there's a lot of better ones in the middle and at the end. especially the ones about the army and the ones that are punk-inspired! ( oh, of course i can't seem to ignore those gorgeous guys, haha! )
# photography of denis rouvre. his photography is similar to hedi slimane's, very minimal but with a huge focus on facial expressions. i love that!
# and again, i have a most favourite ( which is shown as a picture above ) of helena bonham carter shot by bryan adams ( is it really the singer bryan adams? yes, it is him! ). i love helena bonham carter, she plays the most quirky and strange woman in her movies and it takes a lot to be so authentic in a role. i loved her in the new harry potter movie ( the movie itself had great style by the way! ) as well, as in her older movies and my most favourite one of her is 'a room with a view'.

3. diversity.


lollipop pies by luxirare.

this is the most fantasting and precious and useful thing ever: pies on a stick! oh my, i should try this out, but i KNOW that it will not turn out as good as these! what an invention, for me as a pie maniac, this would be heaven!


the ansley park glass house in atlanta.

visit this fantastic site: the contemporist! it's a treasure! modern architecture and clean styles mixed with furniture making. my heart bleeds so much when looking at these houses! well, at least i can dream.

and now some videos.


blitzen trapper - furr

this video is first: amazing, and secondly: a great listen! the songtext is the best.

and to see this chocolate bunny melt, is kind of sad, but still my mouth gets watery looking at this!

hope you have a nice week!

love,
mari

july '20: lake petersdorf discoveries and a plea against genocide.

the green wild meadows of malchow's sandfeld. in the west of malchow there is a big chunk of forest that spans towards plauer see, a widely 'uncultivated' area these days, but it hasn't always been this way. in my last post i mentioned the nazi munition factory that had been built in these woods, away from prying eyes of their enemies and where they also built an external subcamp for the concentration camp ravensbrück. exactly these woods we explored on a pretty sunny day, betraying the darkness that happened around these parts. isn't it weird that there are places in this world that were built or used by dark forces and horrible regimes and you vist them 80 years later and they are the most peaceful places you can imagine? sometimes my brain can't cope with the contrast of knowing what was in the past and what the present looks and feels like. it definitely leaves me with a strange impression often, kind of like a little sting in my heart and brain that is not ...

july '20: a boat ride across the lakes.

starting point in malchow harbour. when you're in the mecklenburg lakelands you need to do some of the many boat rides they offer up all around the various lakes! that's really sort of the best way to get a little overview over the many lake destinations and being on the water and feeling the wind on your face ( or the rain 😂 ) and seeing the life in the water and the landscapes around you, it's just special, i think! they often also tell you historic bits and pieces of the lakes, informing you on possible sights you should seek out, too! when you book a tour, you can choose between big day trips crossing several lakes, depending from where you start, or you can choose short rides that last a couple of hours and perhaps even have a theme like a sunset tour or a romance tour ( possibly with romantic dinner for two options 😉 ). from malchow you can choose between two tour providers: reederei pickran & the blau-weiße-flotte . there are tours that include up to 7 lakes, ...
