When Jientje visited from Belgium she brought this sweet little angel to live with me.

  1. Wow, I can't believe I'm first in the linky list!

    Love the little angel. He has a slightly old-fashioned look to him, very European! What a great gift!

  8. Promise not to laugh. When I saw the first photo, the first thing that jumped into my head was Howdy Doody. Go figure. I suppose I thought I saw freckles. Of course the angel isn't Howdy Doody -- much nicer and as always your close in photos are great.

  23. Oh, she's very beautiful! I too received a very beautiful ornament... I know the holidays are over, but I still haven't made my post about it - I need to get myself in gear! LOL

  24. a rather sultry face for an angel ---- ha.

  25. Very cool angel! Love the angles on it and how the white background makes it look like a cutout in that first shot.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Very nice close ups! Makes me wish I had a real camera that could have different lens. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  27. What an angelic shot! (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

    I like the details that came out in this macro. The "creation" dust that clings to the painted and fired angel is something likely overlooked by the naked eye, but seems somehow symbolic under the scrutiny of the camera.

  28. I just saw your lovely gift to Jientje on her blog... and now this beautiful angel. I really love great blogging friendships like this. Wonderful!

  29. I am so excited about my first photography event and it's macro which is my favorite. I hope you don't mind but most of my photos are of food in one shape or another.
