Magic Windows #12
by angeliska on April 20, 2010
Hooray, it’s Magic Windows time! It’s been the most gorgeous, luscious spring here – the last few days have been stormy and sullen (in a really enticing way!) Normally, I’m not a fan of gray and gloomy weather, but the (…)

(Photograph by Muhammed Muheisen) A street performer uses a snake in his act on a road near Islamabad, Pakistan. I do not know the provenance of this photo, unfortunately. I tried using TinEye, to no avail. Anyhow, it makes me (…)
Snowday!
by angeliska on February 25, 2010
A very strange thing happened yesterday. Well, strange for Texas – because after a weekend of blissful balminess and riding bicycles in the sunshine and shortsleeves, it snowed! All day, big fat fluffy flakes fluttered down. It was magical, and (…)

(Photo by Red-Star) Turkeys are such strange birds. Ugly-beautiful, and regal-ridiculous. Have you ever seen one flying wild? It’s like a giant feathered cannonball shot through the woods. Hilarious and shocking. We saw wild turkeys in Osyka Springs, Mississippi when (…)
Magic Windows #5

Creepy cute lion babies, you hypnotize me. I cannot look away. You have me under your power. I will now paint everything I own gold! We had this giant preserved Alligator Gar specimen in the window at Uncommon Objects for (…)
Strange Season
by angeliska on October 16, 2009
One of the many things I appreciate about Texas weather is the constant mercurial shifting between extremes. Honestly! I am, in so many ways, a creature of habit. I can easily get bogged down in work and routines, so perhaps (…)

A quick Magic Windows update from afar, these are actually all Austin related images that I’ve been meaning to show you for awhile.. Don’t worry, the New York edition of Magic Windows is shaping up to be pretty great. Just (…)
