Christina Rossetti "Echo" Victorian Poem movie animation

found this artist work, who brings to life poets reading their verse. It gives a beautiful and eerie feeling.

i love their work, so much work condensed in time, the flickering of clouds in the sky, its animation of life.

kids etc


kids etc, originally uploaded by ebbaviktoria.

my favourites from flickr are mostly kids lately probably since I am nurturing my newly started group on flickr "Wild kids" which is a bit like raising a child, it needs a lot of attention and care or it will wilt an die.
I found so many wonderfully wild and etherally looking children on flickr.
I am fashinated by the idea of the wild child, with wild I mean true to its own soul, a child which is happy and self contained, and in contact with the wild and the very innocent. I feel that I have found several photos that portrays those feelings.

Surströmmings skiva





The last days at my parents we had Surströmming a fish that is sour, preserved in something acidic, it stinks so my dad had alot of trouble to open the can outdoors and then getting rid of the can, however he then eats the stinking fish with potatoes, flatbread, and chopped red onions with a lot of pleasure.
