Magic Windows #8
by angeliska on December 23, 2009
Magic Windows are portals into the strange and beautiful world I inhabit, and the marvelous people, places and things come across in my day to day – all captured with the aid of my handy magic celephone (it’s an iPhone). (…)
Winter Solstice – Messe de Minuit
by angeliska on December 21, 2009
Happy Winter Solstice, beloveds! It’s not especially chilly here yet, though it has gotten a little frost-spangled some nights, the tease of recent snowfall amounted to only a meagre flurry. That being said, I’m grateful to know that the days (…)
Magic Windows #7

It’s high time for a Magic Windows update, wouldn’t you say? As always, all photos were taken with my magic telephone camera (which explains the not-so-hot quality, eh?) It sure is handy, though! All the photos were taken at Uncommon (…)

(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 (…)

“Gypsy Interiors is a series of portraits capturing the private world of these outwardly loud, vivacious people. Here he finds a rich and profound intimacy, hidden but exhibited among antique furniture, tapestries, paintings, religious images, china, staircases and mirrors, set (…)
Rest, then
by angeliska on October 21, 2009
(via paperlilies) Fever dreams, strange passages, sleeping all day. Oh, I’ve been so ill! Again, a nasty bug has knocked me down- an unfortunate casualty of my poor candle, burnt at both ends. I’ve been flattened like a pancake under (…)
Magic Windows #4
by angeliska on October 9, 2009
Summer’s dwindling has brought the storms: this one was coming for me before I began my journey. I outran it in high-heeled boots, the wind lashing at my leftover locks, head newly half-shorn, walking through the drive-through at the bank. (…)
