Day 11

I think I will call days like today "red chair days." So if I am uninspired for photographs, or just utterly drained after a long week at work, photos will consist of random household objects, like red chairs and glass doorknobs.

Day 5

So, this post is a little late, but this photo was taken on Day 5, I promise. I got home from a somewhat grueling day and only remembered to take a photo once the daylight had gone, so I had to get a little creative with our indoor lighting and my subject.

This chair has been in the family for a couple of generations, now. My mom got it at the Salvation Army for five dollars (I think) when she was a teenager, and it lived at my grandmother's house when I was a kid. I inherited it when I was seventeen or so, but it was taken over by Matt shortly after we moved in together. It is now his "Learning Chair," and lives in the corner by my desk.

Day 2

The other day, as we were contemplating moving out of our current apartment, I started listing all of the things I love about it. This list included our doorknobs, which are those fantastic vintage glass ones, and our radiators, which are also fantastic and vintage, but work really, really well. (Which is a good thing during our grey Portland winters.)

I also like the fact that my cat Chuck will often perch on the radiator and look picturesque. Chuck is a hellion, but he does picturesque rather well. Taylor, the sweet one, won't really hold still, but I will attempt to capture her soon.
