Product Placement

“The trouble with us in America isn't that the poetry of life has turned to prose, but that it has turned to advertising copy.”
Louis Kronenberger 1904-1980

Is it "art copies life" or "life copies art"?

  1. What an astute quote! Great capture of the (2) lighthouses, heh. Vintage campers were like modern art, really quite attractive and interesting in design all the way up through the 70's. Sure, the RV's of the past 30 years offer more creature comforts, but boy are they ug.

  6. Hi there,
    as I´ve no pics of only myself from the wedding (I have a few group pics but need to ask permission from the others before publishing it online). In the meantime I´m sending you a link to a finnish webpage where you can see my beautiful dress. It is designed by Seija Lukkala for Globe Hope. It is made out of a finnish army summer parachute. I also have a skirt by Globe Hope made of the same material.

    The dress is in the second image:
