Happy almost mother’s day! Words are adapted from a sun dial motto I found last week. Type design – an homage to Rodrigo Corral‘s design for Pablo Neruda’s Love Poems.
2013!
I don’t normally do this exercise, but after seeing all these Facebook posts about year-end-reviews, I could not help but count blessings! These are highlights, but certainly not the only excitement from 2012. We went to so many concerts and on so many hikes. M & I also got to host a few friends in our apartment. I also got to spend more time with my family since I got a full-time job! I did not however get to travel with them this year, so that is definitely a 2013 goal! Let’s see what 2013 will bring us. Happy New Year’s!
Almonds, A Free Pattern
This pattern was inspired by its namesake, of course! At first look it seems organic, but it’s actual very symmetrical! There is also a beautiful contrast in the actual shape of the almond – rounded and sharp on opposite ends. Here are 4 of my color picks – Pesto, Butter, Sea Salt & Raw. See a pattern? They look great in both bold & muted color contrasts. Read on for the patterns download.
Urban Hiking
Camped a night here at Floyd Bennett Field. The full moon was covered by thick clouds, but the city lights provided enough light for some late night spelunking adventures.
Give
Some words to keep us going. Thank you for the motivation and inspiration Gracie!
Supermoon
Took a few tries to get good snap shots of some thing so bright at night. Here’s my favorite snapshot of the supermoon from last Saturday night, taken around 10PM EST. M, N and I had planned on camping upstate last weekend and the supermoon happen to coincide. At first it was really cloudy, but the light still broke through. The sky completely cleared up by 11PM, but not before all the clouds split up into a million pieces, almost as if the moon’s energy was breaking them up and summoning them closer. It was like watching a surrealist painting turn into a photograph. Learn more about the supermoon from NASA.
