this old thing...

for the broken theme that's floating about somewhere... an ancient typewriter... i stuck the desk lamp underneath it :)

sorry to have been so absent the last little while... i have a new job and although my formal start date is next Monday, i've really already started... and i've gone from a job with a pace of 30 kph to one that is somewhere in the neighbourhood of warp factor 9... it's a great job and i am thrilled to have it, but it doesn't leave me with much time or energy at the end of the day... hoping to find my groove shortly and carve out some mind space for photography and 365...

next week, if the weather's good, want to hit the UofT? will there be a full moon then you think?

@summerfield hi Vikki... i actually think we're heading into new moon and the thingy i checked showed moonrise around 4am, so we'd be unlikely to see it... also, between the new job and the fact that my hubby is travelling for next two weeks, i think it extremely unlikely that i'll manage to get out to play :(

[Call me Joe]

Congrats and good luck on ur new job-love the lighting and image !:)

[Marloes]

Great comp. Wish you lots of light in your new job ;) !
