above and beyond

My idea of this picture was totally different...
I wanted to capture the beautiful faded grey color of this coach and the wooden cuddle around it. I was seeking to keep forever the feeling of warmth it gave me that afternoon....
But as I'm randomly exploring my camera, without going into great details on how it works best...this is the result:
a curious boy, eyes wide open in the center of my microcosm

passé composé

Living colors, changing weekly, those are 2009/2010 being locked in my mobile for some time...

definition of beauty


Beauty (also called prettiness, loveliness or comeliness) is a characteristic of a person, animal, place, object or idea that provides a perceptual experience of pleasure, meaning or satisfaction (see more on Wiki)

Here is my latest project starting today - a beauty-to-be-in-a-few-months.
My mom gave me those bulbs as a present and I loved it. 
In the coldest months of next year (hopefully Feb/March) these flowers will enlighten my days and fill me with pleasure and satisfaction.
By then the idea of expecting will keep me warm and spring me.
Greatest expectations look like this:




























Day 1 is very promising:






























Regular updates to follow. Enjoy winter!

{Sun}day details

Sundays are adorable this way - smiling, noisy kids playing around, delicious food, great wine, nice people to chat, perfect hosts - open, positive, caring.
What you will not see on the pictures below is the tasty homemade food prepared for the Sunday brunch and the smiles pouring over all.
Those stay in my heart.

Here is a crystal beauty in various colors as I saw it























































Twisted color intervention, just for fun

{empty} table for 6


















6 empty chairs around an empty table...embraced by crawling plants. Waiting for beautiful people to be happy here...now.
There are places that has to be believed to be seen...or seen to be believed?
Or green to be remembered!

Reflection



















God is in the details - they say - can you see (it)?
Do you have an eye for details, do they tell you stuff others simply miss?
Do you live in this opulent world of details in your head? Can you translate it to others? Do you share it?

Or this is just a pot on my coffee table?

{romantic?} moods


I'm not sure I can do 'romantic', but sometimes it's in my face, can't just deny it...
Can I deal with it? Let me show you...

How can I possibly describe the pearls my mother gave me - warm and beautiful, and inviting - still only living in my jewelry box...












At the farmers market, on a chilly Sunday afternoon those gorgeous autumn flowers were calling her name. A special gift to a dear friend...
