This is a rough draft of something that I have been working on. This guy was making something in straw, but it was a decade ago I can no longer remember what.

FSO Syrena - 'Syrenka'

FSO Syrena - 'Syrenka', a photo by gingerpig2000 on Flickr.

Via Flickr:
Three cylinder engine, rather agricultural engineering, saloon and pick-up. This is one of the latter, and the version that I prefer, although perhaps not in such a state of decay.

I Dream - I Can Fly!

I Dream - I Can Fly!, a photo by gingerpig2000 on Flickr.

Via Flickr:
when was young I used to dream that I could fly, and this may have something to do with the amount of time that I spend on the different swings I came across when I was young.

Fashion Session

Fashion Session, a photo by gingerpig2000 on Flickr.

This is the latest of my images involving heavily edited people. The original image was taken merely to show my wife what she looked like in a skirt and jacket combination in a clothing shop's changing rooms. We bought the skirt. I later noticed the picture and cam e to see its worth. I believe it is one of the best I have done so far.

Old Geezer Fashion

I have a passion, and that is not to let getting old mean you get consigned to saggy clothes, yachtwear or an old suit before they have to box you up and hide you 6 feet under the ground.

And this means getting some basic messages across, the first of which is there are just 2 stages in life - child and adult, plus a time when one has to navigate from one to the other.

When you are a child, your parents have to make a lot of your clothing decisions.

When you are an adult, you have to make most of your clothing decisions.

Hence, there is no such thing as 'age appropriate'. If you are an adult, you wear adult clothes. Some young people dress badly, some old people dress badly. And vice versa.

If someone cannot deal with older people dressing like they do, and that one is an adult, then we should be asking whether this person has matured enough, and whether they are still relying on other people to tell them what they should be wearing. Adults are adults. They make their decisions, and they should be respected for their decisions.

After all, only a child would laugh at what someone else is wearing.

Dried Corn in the Field

Dried Corn in the Field, a photo by gingerpig2000 on Flickr.

This is a field of drying out corn, ready for harvest we passed yesterday on our day out to Naleczow. Wifie took the photo, I edited it.

Here in eastern Poland the weather is getting cooler, but there are still some really sunny days when it is a pleasure to be out. We had a good walk along a country lane, seeing many cottages and the newly built houses of the nouveau riche.
