Monday, 7 May 2012
...afternoon tea, photography, & my cup & saucer collection is an awesome trio for me. My vintage cup & saucer collection is worth having it, i can use it for my high tea parties or when i entertain my lady friends. i also love buying tea of different kind specially the soothing one in the afternoon after along day from work or after gardening specially this time of the year. Summer is almost here and there is not a day spend wisely outside or in the garden and to enjoy gardening and relaxing. Of course photography is still numero uno for me. I hope you enjoy my photographs and if you are around my area...come & let's have an afternoon tea!

Vintage cups ~
...love having tea in the afternoon, because of that i also love collecting vintage tea cups & saucers.
Ladies, If you are considering starting an antique collection, a tea cup and saucer collection is a good route to go. Tea cups and saucers have been around for hundreds of years and are found in many types of materials, so there are plenty of different items to collect. And they can range in price from a few dollars at an antique store all the way into the thousands of dollars for rare sets.
I have look around almost everywhere, on-line, flea market, garage sale, antique shops, given as gifts, & etc. I have quite a number of sets and adding more...
I love using them for photography, dressing them up, or being creative with the cups & saucers.
If you happen to be in my area give me a buzz and I am glad to have tea with you. I also just bought YOUTHBERRY WILD ORANGE BLOSSOM TEA BLEND from Teavana, a heavenly herbal scented tea, yummy... Ciao!

The artist is the confidant of nature, flowers carry on dialogues with him through the graceful bending of their stems and the harmoniously tinted nuances of their blossoms. Every flower has a cordial word which nature directs towards him. ~Auguste Rodin

"ab•stract ( b-str kt , b str kt )
adj.Having an intellectual and affective artistic content that depends solely on intrinsic form rather than on narrative content or pictorial representation: Dictionary Definition by Farlex"
Abstract in art & photography has always been my favorite subject. I love to create story and love to imagine a scenario in doing this. This has also made my imagination eclectic and creative this is also a way of expressing one’s feelings, communication of emotions, thoughts and other values.
ABSTRACT PHOTOGRAPHY DEFINITION
There is no standard, universally accepted definition of abstract photography. Actually, it is not easy to create a clear-cut definition of an abstract concept. However, for the purposes of this series, it is necessary to create a definition in order to put some boundaries around the topic. This makes it easier to determine what falls within the domain of the subject matter. Thus, for this series, abstract photography will be defined as photography that:
•Does not represent the subject in a literal way.
•Communicates primarily through form, color, and curves rather than image detail.
The question arises, "Why bother creating abstract images?" In other words, there are a lot of other photographic opportunities out there. Why would a photographer choose to create abstract images?
There are a couple of reasons. First, abstract images can be very powerful. That in itself is all the justification that is needed. However, there is a second advantage. Abstract images can be created almost anywhere. What that means is that a photographer can create abstract images right at home and in the surrounding neighborhood. This is in contrast to other types of photography, such as landscape photography, where there is the cost in time and money to travel to specific locations to capture images.
In your own lucid mind I know for sure that everyone has their own interpretation and that is what makes me energized. No one can or will know what you really are thinking. Whether you’re feeling excited or poignant, it is also a combination of the emotional intensity and abstinence. It separates us from realization to imagination. Expressing oneself is not important, if it does effects the ambiance and makes you happy so be it. In my cognitive mind if we share the same thought; then welcome to my world! Tell me what’s in your mind? ~ Lisa SM.

Two Hearts Beat As One~
kiss :o)
Love moves in mysterious ways
It's always so surprising
How love appears over the horizon
I love you for the rest of my days
But still it's a mystery
Of how you ever came to me
Which only proves, love moves in mysterious ways
Heaven knows, Love is just a chance we take
We make plans, but then love demands of leap of faith
So hold me close and never ever let me go
'Coz even though we think we know which way the river flows
That's not the way love goes. ~ Nina

God's languages of rainbows ~
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.
Marcel Proust
Six Legs ~ Musca Domestica
For one thing, I know that my journey continues, everyday is a learning curve, experience, meeting new friends and sharing ideas and knowledge. I am a big believer that success is just around the corner. Happy Sunday!
Fly, my fly
In you my heart beholds
The glory of the Supreme.
Tiniest in size, you house the dream
Of the Omnipotent.
To me you are extremely important,
Because you represent
One extremity of God,
His message of smallness;
In another word, His greatness. ~ Sri Chinmoy

Earth's beauty~
My heart's aspiration-beauty-flames
