A Tale of Two Markets

A few Sundays ago, my sweetie-pie and I went to the Santa Monica Airport Antiques Market and found it much changed since our last visit, a couple of years ago. We were disappointed to find this place a shadow of its former self, but as we were walking away empty-handed and a bit forlorn, this groovy Indian statue kindly stood in our way and provided an artistic save to the day...
Sweetie-pie has recently rediscovered the fun of shooting with a Holga 120S and I'm loving the results!

Two weeks later, at the Beverly Hills Farmer's Market, he took this pic of me (wearing the Mexican peasant top I got at Out of the Closet!), standing in an open doorway, holding the sweetpeas I bought to sweeten up our home.

Vintage Finds + Farmers Market Sweetpeas + Holga = Perfect Moment

This new passion of his has led to the creation of a blog:

Until next time... Miss Absinthe

Oh you must! I think I'm getting one for my birthday in June... (little birdie told me) He (photographer sweetie pie) also uses very expired film. I love the endless possibilities.
