WPC: Ornate

I am just back from a visit to China, and what could be more suitable than ”ornate” as a challenge? The problem is to chose what picture to post – China is a heaven of things ornate. From details in embroidery to whole buildings.

The cloissonné craft work is lavishly ornate, so this picture is from my factory visit in Beijing. (They also had the big vase from the film Oceans 11 on display)

Travel Theme: Letters

For Ailsa this week – join in on the interesting theme of Letters!

”My” letters are carved in stone in Tibet – pilgrims’ letters on their way to Pothala. The most beautiful letters in fluent and graphical style.

Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Small Subjects

Maybe a cup of coffee is no small subject…but as a cup, it is. Even smaller are morning dew drops. Join in with Cee’s B&W and let us know how you look upon ”Small Subjects”!

CFFC: Graffiti & Murals

If you are a skilled artist – you are really good. In Malmoe yesterday I found these.

For more graffiti, click here.

These two, the blue and the red one, are painted on the same house in Malmoe – One long side in red tones, the other one in blue. These two details caught my eye. The frog – look at his eye! The bird I adore as well.
