Statues




I found these on a neat website featuring many other of the world's wild and wonderful statues. The first one has some interesting other views which the mysterious S might well appreciate.

Sorted books etc.



Nina Katchadourian has a website with really neat projects on it, including sorted books. I want to go and sort my own bookshelf now! Also neat is her work patching up spider webs with red thread.

Crystals, camouflage and color








Beautiful colors! From here and there and who knows where?

Bringing out baby





My historical tip-of-the-hat to new mothers. From this historic book.

Nuri Bilge Ceylan: images to savor









Examples of stunning images by Turkish photographer and movie maker Nuri Bilge Ceylan, ripped straight from his website, which I would encourage you to visit. I am determined to visit Turkey one day.

The Mysterious S shuns all seafood...too far removed from his childhood fare. Rosa and Daniel certainly never sampled cephalopod until their teens, but nonethless found tentacles tantalizing.

Vintage b&w americans





The New York Public Library has a wonderful online digital collection. I think (I hope) I found these over there. Or now that I think about it, maybe they are from here.
