Weekly Words Challenge #29, hosted by Pickled Beef (love the name of her blog!)

Saw this very shiny chandelier in the Vosges store in NYC. After taking a few pictures, I was politely informed that no pictures were allowed in the store. As I was in the middle of composing a picture when told, I said: “Huh?”, thus allowing myself the time to take another. Brilliant!

I’m doing a project on Flickr, One Object 365 Days Project; this shot incorporates an album from another era, an amazing time!

Weekly Words Challenge (#28 is where I’m jumping in) hosted by Pickled Beef; I saw it over on Jenn’s blog. Normally it’ll be posted on Tuesday, but I’m perpetually late so…suck it!

This was probably once someone’s livelihood, now turned to junk. I often see old barns in various states of disrepair and wonder how did they get that way? This one seems like it was a glorious building in its heyday.

This treasure, an Elfish love ring I bought in Edinburgh, Scotland a few (5!!! Wow, was it really that long?) years ago, never fails to put a smile on my face.
