weekly glee #5 2009

well, it's time for a weekly glee post! very much time has flown by since the last so i think i should finally show you what i liked most the last few weeks.

1. GEDICHTE / GERMAN POEMS AND POETRY
this site is a very great one that i stumbled over while searching after some poems that i want to present on my mother's 50th birthday. i did not find a poem whatever, but this site is such a treasure! poems over poems from rilke to goethe to schiller and sachs. i will most likely find poems here when i search after fitting words for blog entries! or when i want to find poetry of some certain writer. love! ( still, it seems like i have to write my own birthday poem for mom ;O; i have no muses kissing my head recently... )

2. SHOELUST


recently i kinda turned into a shoe addict. i only have few pairs, but i loooove to look at pretty shoes! shoelust has a lot of crazy and beautiful shoes like the ones above, how can you walk in these?

3. lucy chadwick and duffy in london with special guest emma by the selby


the selby is a site about mostly... interiors. well known people show him their houses, flats, work places, shops. it's really interesting and sometimes you find very cute interiors or places! like the one of lucy chadwick and duffy! i love the light colours and the little details they have in their place!

4. Theater of Fashion by Steven Meisel for Vogue Italia October 1998


stephen meisel is normally one of the photographers i don't really like, but this time two of his photography projects surprised me. theater of fashion is such a significant photoshoot with a story! most of the time it's all about clothes in many photoshoots, but in this one you don't really look at them. it's the faces and poses that strike me. great!

5. Eugenia Volodina, Gemma Ward, Hana Soukupova by Steven Meisel for Vogue Italia September 2005


this is the next stephen meisel photoshoot that i loved. it's the graffitti styled surroundings and makeup that makes this photoshoot very strong and powerful.

6. Veronika Antsipava by Luis Sanchis


this photoshoot is one huge dedication to the sea. the mood of these pictures is so melancholic and at the same time it kind of makes oneself very happy in a calm way.

7. Valentine Fillol-Cordier by Melodie McDaniel for Elle June 2008


well, i'm not a huge pink/rosé lover but this photoshoot and some of the clothes are very nice to look at. i guess, it's the nature surroundings that caught my eye. and the shoes. oh lord, these shoes are fantastic.

8. at the salton sea


on abandoned places i find truly intriguing locations at times, like this one. the photographer, capthek has some great skills in capturing this place!

well, i'm going to have strawberry-cream dessert now, until next time!

may '20: seeking modernism.

super pink rhododendron buds emerging! i start off this post with some flower images to appreciate and praise the time of spring, especially the month of may, which is the most abundant spring month to me personally. all the blossoms, all the fresh greens amass during may, and my heart and mind are hardly ever able to not frolick & gush about it all! for this post i am returning to one walk i did with the sole purpose to find a special mid-century villa in königstein ( which would ultimately prove to be a failure - i did find it, but i couldn't approach it properly to have a good look at it and only ever saw a tiny bit of the garden/forest side ). the whole walk was not a letdown, though, as i did find some other mid-century & brutalism gems and thoroughly enjoyed walking through the old spa town in the taunus mountains. rhododendron shrubs yield all kinds of different blossoms in myriad colours, they are easy to breed, therefore a wide variety can be found all over the wor...

autumn impressions.

a selected assortment of autumn related things. ( or things that don't fit into a 'bigger picture' ) i will get around to posting my autumn vacation photos as well. my parents and me visited france a second time and i think it was almost as wonderful as the first time. but i'll get to that soon. moth in front of a vinyl shop window. i bet you know who's smile it is that strikes at you from the record. elvis! i went mushroom hunting again, this time with jasmin, the best mushroom finder i have :) but we didn't have a lot of time together this past autumn, i am very sad to admit this. she's one of our apprentices in the serving area in our market, but recently she's on exchange in a different outlet until january. but soon we'll have her back and our sporadic meetings will stop being sporadic. i think times like these make me realize that there's something worth living for. mostly my life is very grey and i'm so thankful to s...

of dragons & critters and yin & yang kittens.

my cat shadow is a very prolific cat and gives birth to baby sweethearts annually. we always let them grow up until they're old enough to be given away. growing up in a huge garden where they can roam around freely - isn't that the best way to grow up? it's always a joy to visit my parents and my cat in that time of the year. i have also included some pictures of a little rhine trip i made in the middle of may. and the occasional random ones that didn't fit somewhere.  rhine wood dragon. sitting on the rhine beach enjoying the beautiful day. my stone collection of the day. ( i seriously have a lot of stones in my home. i love to collect them! ) the river rhine near eltville. random skull assortment ( shot this at the naxoshalle in frankfurt - i was there for a japanese movie festival ) rosey roses. they also smelled heavenly. raindrops on my window. chameleon tail. i adore spirals. baby kittens drinking momma m...
