weekly glee # 17 2009.

1. desertions.

lonely truck / dark corridors

# station to station by thehoodwatch- i just can't get enough of his great fabric captures. see also: riverside mill - his newest discovery. we should expect more pictures of this place soon, since he only photographed one floor out of 5.
# ross mine by br1nd - gotta love these HDR quality photos. makes the buildings look much more eerie than they already are. the truck is the best, though.

2. photogenius.

triangle dress / natalia vodianova

# ranya mordanova by tom munro for vogue russia november 2009 - absolutely futuristic and beyond beautiful. feathery gowns, bright violet lips and a breathtaking black triangle dress are the new deal.
# natalia vodianova by hedi slimane - a very personal view onto the natural beauty of natalia vodianova.
# constance jablonski by joshua jordan for harper's bazaar russia november 2009 - notice the wittyness of this set with showing off some renaissance love. nice stuff :D but the shoes must be deadly for the feet, i guess D:
# caroline winberg by cedric buchet for elle italia october 2009 - the blonde curled hair of caroline winberg is to die for! this set is inspired by the gladiator eras of the old rome. sexy :D
# robert pattinson by hedi slimane for AnOther Man #9 - hedi slimane's simple photography style suits this man so much! since i'm no twilight fan, i think that mr. pattinson's potential should be used for more serious movies. he's got the james dean/alain delon-look!

3. architecture & design.

dream chair / in the woods

# the kautsch collection by carolin fieber - these spider-web related sofas look so comfortable! i bet you can pretty much have the sleep of the gods in them!
# the torres house by GLR arquitectos /gilberto l. rodriguez - it's just like sitting in a glass house, only much more luxurious.
# sebastopol residence by turnbull griffin haeslop architects - in the middle of a fir forest stands a villa that almost feels indian if it weren't for the huge windows. lovely!
# swing chair by patricia urquiola - this looks so fragile and beautiful! perfectly for dreaming up the most romantic, wild, fantastic dreams :D
# bloody bathroom accessories by spinninghat - this is so real looking, that it's just genious. 'psycho' is greeting :D

4. diversity.

strawberry oreo muffins formed like panda bears! delicious! not just for the tastes but also for the looks <3 5.

video time.

coilhouse had an inspiring post about the rinpa eshidan collective doing their street art on various materials and in different places. on of my favourite clips of the shown videos is this one with the car rising out of an rhino-elephant and balloons.

i love christopher walken! and i do love him especially for reinterpretating lady gaga's poker face, haha :D

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...
