Day 108 #Project365

April 17, 2012 by [ayu]

It’s been raining the whole day. We stayed in all morning, that’s when Ms 4 started playing with her new baby, Mika. This newly “adopted” baby is orient looking (the caucasian and black babies are also available at Ikea stores nationwide, in case anyone’s interested), and it can pass on as a baby boy or baby girl. I think they have a set of boys clothes at the shop, but Ms 4 picked the girls set, so a girl baby […]

Yes, for years I have been using this simple, non digital, red plastic scale. We have been together since Bangkok, which was 10 years ago.

I bought this beautiful key ring made out of string of beads two summers ago at a weekend market in Port Stephen. I remembered losing one string, could […]

Day 66 #Project365

March 6, 2012 by [ayu]

Of all the days that I need natural light, today was the worst by far. All I needed was 20 straight minutes of constant light to be able to do the metering exercise properly for my photography course. But no. It’s been hot and cold, bright and dark, jacket on and jacket off the whole day long. This photo I took just as I picked up the kids. The sun was really strong, my shadow was almost as big as […]
