Close up beauty

If you are looking for beauty, look around yourself! 

If you look closely you are surrounded by beauty in all shapes, forms and colours: 

This is what I found in my house yesterday: 

Freshly baked sweet buns

Firewood for the fireplace

Water from the tap

An unfinished drawing

A latch on a very old little box

An orchid

So many beautyful things in my home. Beauty doesn't always have to be grand, you just look a little closer! 

I don't mind autumn at all!

To me, autumn is cooking time

These are some of my favourites

I can't cook or live without them!

These days

My parents are cleaning out their closets:

and handed over 1350 slides

from the sixties and seventies

everyday life from when I was little:

How am I going to transfer them into

the digital world of today?

This one was taken of the slide, by my mobile, on the wall...

happy girl at bed time, It's me!

Autumn is also relaxing time, wollen socks and sudoku at the cabin!

And a show with a plane from the forties

landing on a field by the national park.

It was good old fashion entertainment

out in the autumn sunshine!

New Gadget!

For a long time, I felt like this: trapped with my film memories in a glass wall.

My camera use Firewire to transfer films to my PC

But in my new laptop there is no where to plug the Firewire!

How frustrating!

But then after more than a year of searching

I found another way!

This is my new Friend!

Dazzle.

And now I'm about to burn all my digital tapes on DVD's.

The next thing is to try to transfer the VHS films the same way.
And I am such a happy nerd!
