Paris! A flash mob performs Carol of the Bells as the Christmas lights are switched on!
antongerashchenko.bsky.social Anton Gerashchenko @antongerashchenko.bsky.social · 1d
France hosted a large musical flash mob featuring 100 musicians who came together to perform a new orchestral version of Carol of the Bells to mark the ceremonial switching-on of the Christmas lights in the streets of Paris.

Braune Herbstblätter schwimmen auf der Oberfläche eines Gewässers, in dem sich blauer Himmel und entlaubte Bäume spiegeln. Am Ufer herbstliche Büsche.

Église St-Pierre de #Montmartre & synaesthetic poetry by #Rimbaud:

A black, E white, I red, U green, O blue: vowels,
I shall tell, one day, of your mysterious origins:
A, black velvety jacket of brilliant flies
which buzz around cruel smells,

#light #photography
Grey stone pillars in Église St-Pierre de Montmartre, with light from a stained glass window reflecting on them: rose, red, orange, yellow, turquoise, white.

A sunlit forest path covered in autumn leaves, winding gently uphill between tall, slender trees. Warm orange and brown tones dominate the ground, while soft sunlight filters through the trunks. On the left stands a small wooden stick shelter, blending naturally into the scene.

I am reminded of Michael Redhill's book, "Consolation":

Set in 1997, the novel traces the adventures of a group of characters centred around the “forensic archaeologist” David Hollis, as they race to find evidence of a sunken ship buried by the lakeshore

Annie Glass :
Apres Swim, n.d.

Sculpture wire & glass beads
35 x 25 x 23 cm

Further description in the alt text 👇
Annie was born in Melbourne and showed a strong interest and talent in art since she was very young. After completing her bachelor of fine art majoring in sculpture at Monash university in 1998 Annie worked in bronze before moving to wire. The movement and immediacy of the material appealed to her. Annie has been working in wire for almost 15 years. She recently moved to Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula with her husband and 3 children. Her work is best described as whimsical often humorous snapshots of life. Dogs and the human form feature in her work along with movement. She has been involved in many group and solo shows as well as having her own stand in the Emerging artist section of Art Melbourne and Sydney. She has won awards and has work in many private collections in Australia, New York and London. Bio statement: “I like to have humour in my work as I find that people can identify with a humorous piece. I like to give the works and Australian flavour and I find the beach, dogs and the Hills hoist work towards that. I want to remind people of their childhoods and just generally use human themes so people can identify with the work. It is figurative because I want it to be accessible to the average person and to tell a story about life. Sculpture is my passion and I am so lucky to be doing something that I love and it makes other people happy to.”

Attention Alphabetters!
Mon 24 Nov is the start of Week V and the theme for the #AlphabetChallenge is Vowels. So the subject of your pic must start with a vowel e.g. apple; earring; Inverness; otter; umbrella. Anything at all but with a vowel first. Easy Peasy!
Use the # below and have fun😊

"Off Season, Old Orchard Beach". #holga #filmphotography #maine
Black and white square photo. A man sits on a beach bench in the left foreground, his head down as if he's sleeping. On the right are two empty benches and a pigeon is walking on the sandy beach. A large ferris wheel looms in the background, part of an amusement park closed for the season.

"Ghost Tree". Alcohol gel ink transfer on Arches 88 paper. #printmaking
A black and white square photo print made using an ink transfer process. The image shows a white, ghostly outline that resembles a tree on a dark wall. The bright tree shape is caused by the process of efflorescence, where salt migrates to the surface creating lines and/or shapes.

"Cloud Over Seaview". A pigment ink print on tea bag paper over gold leaf. Finished with cold wax. #printmaking #pei
A square photo of a blurry, dark beach and an enormous (blurry) white cloud. The dark sky and white cloud fill the top half of the frame while the bottom is divided by the ocean and the dark beach. The image has a warm gold tone to it, the result of the gold leaf which underlies the translucent tea bag paper.

Covers of the two books (so far!) in the Montgomery Schnauzer P.I. series. There's also a quote from another author: "Delightful books, fun and imaginative!" says Tom Ryan, bestselling author of Following Atticus and Will's Red Coat.

Come to the Vancouver Christmas Market and meet local #kidlit authors at the Itty Bitty Bookshop, like this guy with his "doggy noir" chapter books
Photo of this BC author with his books inside the world's smallest and cutest bookshop, room for 3 shoppers if you don't mind shuffling around each other (it's cozy!). Colourful children's book line the shelves behind me. The tops of the shelves (barely above my head) are lined with festive holly.
