welcome home

Or, why I really really need a dog. These videos of dogs greeting their soldier owners make me smile and want to cry at the same time.

This, this I love

How beautiful is this? It’s one of Olympia Le Tan’s embroidered clutch bags made to look like a novel from the 40’s or 50’s.

cats with cameras


Aww. Love them, love the camera too... maybe I could ask for one for Christmas to supplement my growing Polaroid habit while the Impossible Project gets those films on sale...

camera containers

My ever-expanding collection of cameras has caused a slight problem that's finally come to a head. I need one bag to put as many of my Lomos, Polaroids, DSLRs and SLRs in so that I can sling it in the back of the car and have everything I need to take photographs, where-ever I go. I was thinking about using one of the old bags lying around the office, but half-remembered something I'd heard once - and one little tweet is all it took:

And I got flooded with creative and beautiful ideas for camera bags. Here's the front runners at the moment:

Lee's Luxury Bag from Artisan&Artist (via @PolaroidGirl)


Sprout Diaper Bag from Chickpea Baby

And the Classic 550 Billingham... from the ever-lovely @Pebble8



I'll add more as more appear. Feel like I've opened Pandora's Box...
