Streets of London

I miss traveling.

Cooking Class (2)

Yum!

Cooking Class (1)

Down in Sarasota, Samir's parents own a lovely Italian Deli called Casa Italia. Aside from having monthly Italian cooking classes, they also have the occassional Indian cooking class. I was lucky enough to participate (meaning: eat the food) at this month's class.

Matthew Paul

My cousin Andrew and his wife had a baby! This is Matthew - he's just over six months old, absolutely adorable, and, boy, does he love to play.

The Progression of a Tongue

Pink Flowers

Again, more coloring experiments. Not sure how they're going, but it's a learning process, right?

Thanks for the lovely comments on the previous photo!

Friends

The photo editing made this look a bit grainy. Alas. I guess it works, it has more of a rustic feel now. 

Bike

Every now and then I like to go back to film cameras. This picture was taken with a fantastic Russian SLR from the 60's/70's that I got off ebay for an extremely cheap price (read: less than $20). I have to manually cut the film before inserting it, which is slightly worrisome, but it usually comes out alright. The most recent roll I put in doesn't seem to work, though, which scares me. Because, really, where do you go to get an old manual Russian camera fixed? 

From the Archives

My old roommate Jeff playing pool. That was a great night. 

Vintage Books

I took this picture for a recent post on my blog in regards to books. That's right, I had a bit of a modeling session with some vintage books I've found in used book stores. They were lovely participants - very easy to work with and not once did they complain.

(Note: The bottom two are old special edition prints of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass. I think, in total, I have seven different versions of those stories - I love collecting them.)
