This is not a rigged photoWe came home, I was starting dinner and David was dealing with Jack. Mika was patiently sitting at the computer trying to log in i.e. randomly pressing buttons in the password field.

David came over and she asked for daddy game... David started Oblivion, Mika put the headphones on and attempted to play:)

Last minute photo before I collapse on the couch.

Jack decided it's time to not do schoolwork again and
David's dad is in town from Alaska so we were spending time with him... all in all, Mika's in bed, Jack is reading and I used my last brain cells thinking what to shoot... and now I'm using my last few lively atoms to post this...

Another "old" childhood game from my collection and currently Mika's favorite toy. Technically, it's underexposed but I like this darker feel especially in sepia photos....
would have preferred a smidgen of a bookeh but it eludes me and I didn't have the energy to play with it.

I have this thing about "old" games, simple oldies but goodies we used to play as kids... c'mon you know which ones I'm talking about, games forsaken by today's kids in favor of the Wii and other contraptions...

I wouldn't really call myself a collector but I will admit I get all excited when I come across one of these old time favorites presented in a new and different way.

The tiles in the photo above belong to a Memory game. The art on all the tiles is done by Charley Harper, an artist who produced mainly wildlife illustrations.

Honestly, I never heard of Charley Harper before I found this Memory game but the images were very intriguing... I love the whimsy in them. After doing some research it turns out Charley Harper was quite prolific and these little Memory tiles don't do justice to his actual artwork.

Until tomorrow, off to clean the kitchen... ta da
