coffee splash by donchris!™ [superslow]

I was actually looking at another photograph of a coffee splash shown on the flickr blog, when I realised how much more I like this one. Such interesting colour and details, and this splash is so impressive! Great action shot :)

If I was thinking I would have taken a photo of the results from one of my favourite coffee cups 1/3 full of coffee smashed on the kitchen floor. These cups are about 8 seasons ago from the designer so I wont hold my breath finding a replacement, three is a disappointing number when it comes to cup sets.

I really like the artwork for the Sydney 2010 The Finders Keepers. Definitely take a look at the website of the artist Madeleine Stamer. I missed last years Brisbane event and I’m so looking forward to our time to come around again.

My posts have been pretty sparse these past couple of days I know and I haven’t had a chance for any knitting – I have a work contract for a few weeks that sees me having to actually get dressed and leave the house rather than sit at my own desk all day. It’s pretty enjoyable work so it’s worth the sacrifice of having to change out of pyjamas in the morning and not being able to say blog in the middle of the day or take a knitting/lunch break :)

These images don’t work well together I know, but I just had to put them together here. The other day I had to go out for a job and on my way home all I could see was yellow things jumping out at me. Yellow signs, flowers, little butterflies, paper, houses… you get the drift, yellow was jumping up and down for my attention.

Neil Gaiman tweeted:

You ALWAYS don’t like the new Dr Who. It’s a rule. You miss the last one. But after a few weeks (or less) he’s the Doctor. It’s inevitable.

He’s right, but even from this short preview I don’t hate this new Doctor, in fact I kind of liked him straight away – I’m surprised! I really really liked Christopher Eccleston and when he regenerated I could not imagine that David Tennant would ever grow on me… too skinny, too comic looking. He was fantastic! Tom Baker will always be the ‘real’ Doctor to me but Tennant has been my favourite by far.

I love this photo I took the other day, I’m just so happy with the colour, depth of field, and with my composition. Very pleased. It looks so much better at a slightly larger size.
