Putting Down Roots

Roots

Part of one of my thumbs is green. I’m not great at it – I manage to grow 1 out of every 5 seeds I acquire – but I am getting better at hydroponics. And here’s the latest of my babies. He’s outgrowing his water cradle, and I’ll be putting the young one in a nice, big pot very soon. (Honestly, he should’ve been put in a pot about 2 weeks ago… but he still looks great- about a foot tall already!) Till then, I’m going to try to grab some more interesting underwater root photos.

Work in Progress

EmbroideryI’ve always admired those friends of mine who are creative in a crafty, make-pretty-and-utilitarian-things kind of way. A good friend of mine let me photograph their work, and I must confess: I’m so impressed by their skill, and I love the color choices. In this photo, in particular, you can see the pattern to follow (aqua blue color directly on the cloth). I think this was for a pillowcase. I wish I had something this pretty to lay my head on when I go to sleep!

Audio, Check, Check

 

Audio boardsOne advantage to working in a broadcast studio is being around all the neat equipment. A few months ago, an expert at the office showed me how to manage a radio broadcast. It’s really neat. I’m alright with sitting in on a hit, but definitely not confident enough to run one myself.

Photographs are constant reminders of how lucky I am to be working in such an awesome place doing such awesome stuff.
