This latest documentary from Errol Morris looks interesting!

It recounts the story of a 1970′s American beauty queen who was accused of travelling to the UK to kidnap a Mormon missionary over whom she had developed an obsession… It’s unlikely anyone could get the real story, even Errol Morris, seeings the man in question understandably wont discuss what happened and the lady seems quite histrionic, but I’m betting it’s going to be a fascinating watch.

I’m seeing old-school bicycles everywhere the past couple of days!

I’m definitely having fantasies of living somewhere a little more bike friendly, or going on a bicycle holiday! Imagine choosing a country and biking the length or width of it, what a perfect way to see the sites.

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.

I wanted to stay up and watch this but I was so tired & knew getting up for work this morning would be too hard… How I wish now I’d at least watched some of this marathon match! It turned out to be the longest ever men’s singles final for games played.

I love to see Federer win, an excellent player, he is always a good sport whether he wins or loses and is always such a gentleman. This makes it his 15th Grand Slam win & puts him back at World No. 1 :)

I-Movix SprintCam v3 NAB 2009 showreel from David Coiffier on Vimeo.

This is pretty amazing, I really like the music they’ve used too – works really well. Most of this is at 1000fps but the red jelly at the end is 2500fps!

I bought a new everyday handbag a month or so ago, but I didn’t choose the right one for me. I miss my old saddle type over the shoulder bag – not that bag because it was falling apart & I was sick of it, but the style. It allowed me to have both hands free & didn’t restrict arm movement, I could get to my camera, notebook (and all of the other completely necessary stuff I carry around) quickly, and it was just easier to carry around every day.

So I’m being a handbag whore & looking for another new everyday bag :)

… so I’m thinking about umbrellas.

I can’t find the original source of this last image – I know I’ve seen it either on flickr or etsy, if anyone knows drop me a line :)

I knew the picture John took of the giant doll/puppet in the street reminded me of something – I went through my bookmarks earlier & found this link I’ve been saving.

Apparently the baby lived on top of a petrol station for years before taking up residence in a Parisian design studio. Want :)
