Project 50 - Week 6 - Down-Low on Deco

Project 50 – Week 6

Concept: Down-Low on Deco

This week Theresa was kind enough to create five Deco books that shall soon be traveling all over the world!  I was able to snap a few shots before they jumped into the envelopes for their upcoming adventures.  The Deco’s range in themes, including: witches, tourism, “Tree of Life”, and more!  Some of them will be starting with short trip inside the US, including Oklahoma and New Jersey, while others are going International starting in Germany and Jordan! 

Both Theresa and I are already anxious to see all the places these Deco’s are going to be traveling (and a dash jealous too!).  It’s like putting a message in a bottle and just waiting by the beach waiting for the reply (and hoping a whale didn’t eat it) and imagining the trek it’s having. 

Enjoy!

Artist of the Day - Day 7 - Ray Bradbury

Ray Bradbury; Author and Time Traveler

Ray Bradbury is one of my top 3 Sci-Fi writers (along with Isaac Asimov and Philip K. Dick), and I would say he’s close to being one of my favorite writers, regardless of genre.  I love that his “Sci-Fi” is subtle and not so over-the-top that it is easy to imagine it not so far-fetched, that you could easily see his visions coming true.  My particular book of choice of Mr. Bradbury is Fahrenheit 451.  If you haven’t read it, go right now!  I will say, the movie is pretty good, but you really should read the book.  Though the book was written in 1953, it is still poignant and relevant today.  In a nutshell: With the death of books and the written word, so dies independent thought and imagination.  I’d also recommend his short story collections, many of which have also been adapted to video (mostly 1 hour TV shows and miniseries).
