I've been printing photos like a madman these last few weeks. For my sister's wedding album. For family presents for Christmas. For my mom. For decorating the apartment. Lady and I have been decorating the place for months now and it really looks like a nice place now. Fewer bare walls, more stuff to make it ours. The six-panel wood screen thingie is now up, mounted on the wall above the stairs. It looks awesome! Lady had her doubts, but once it was up, she's now loving it. The coolest thing about it is that with the horizontal blinds right next to them, light comes in and hits the right-most panel by the window sending elongating beams across the piece. It looks like the whooping cranes are flying into the sunset/sunrise and it's pretty cool. Really cool at night when the light outside the window is still on.
I've printed many other photos as well to hang up everywhere. The Clothespin and City Hall shot was blown up to 11"x14" and now hangs in the living room behind/above the television next to the front door. A 4"x6" of the church on Broad & Spruce Sts hangs in the upstairs bathroom. This dog sits in a 4"x6" frame on the windowsill in the bedroom. A 5"x7" of the pond in Rittenhouse Square hangs above Lady's dresser. An 8"x10" of a puddle with reflected building sits atop our bookcase in the living room. A 4"x6" Buddah is in our downstairs bamboo themed bathroom. An 8"x10" of three statues over at Pine St around 9th St the Presbyterian Historical Society at 5th and Lombard Streets [thanks Andrea] hangs above/behind the table in the kitchen underneath the staircase. An 11"x14" of this cracked earth shot will be put in a frame [hopefully today if I get a chance to go out and get one] and will hang above the couch futon in the living room across from the Clothespin and City Hall photo. And that's it for now.
Still want to print some more, but I gotta slow down for a sec, that's a lot of green.
The three statues are at the Presbyterian Historical Society at 5th and Lombard Streets. Those guys are kinda creepy at night when it's late and no one else is around.
