Some Random New Photos

Julie in the wool forestHere are three sets of photos that may be of interest. I’ve really been enjoying the new camera, and have generally been pleased with the results:

  • On Friday night, we went to our friend Jana’s studio, for the launch party of Handmaiden, her wool-dyeing company. There are some generic party shots, as well as some very colourful photos of her wool hanging from drying racks. It’s like a magic wool forest in there.
  • We’re seriously considering buying 3.6 acres of waterfront property on North Pender Island. Yesterday we went back for a second visit, and took a few more photos.
  • Walking home from The Life Aquatic, I took a few photos of the city. I even snapped a photo during the film’s credits.

As a side note, Jana’s husband Cameron is (among other things) a silkscreen artist. For the launch party, he’s silkscreening something on shirts that people brought. I wanted some text, so I consulted this post about what lyrics you’d get tattooed on your arm. I went with “I’m the first mammal to make plans” for my t-shirt.

  1. Being a total yarn fantatic, I’d love to see the website for this new yarn business. Can you send along the URL? 🙂

  2. Devon and Donna: Once their site is up, I’ll post about it (they’re just up and running). They’re a wholesaler, but I know they sell to local shops.

    Bene: Thanks. Same to you.
