Hello

The iPhone 4 was announced yesterday at one of Apple's major press events, the WWDC. I think my next mobile phone will have to be an iPhone ... or, if my old 2nd generation iPod Nano dies, maybe I'll get an iPod Touch. Either way, this platform becomes more and more impressive with each OS release or product upgrade. Beautiful design inside and out.

Tractor

Great retro design. Great overall package design. Great, clean summer beer (a lagered ale, to be precise). Beau's All Natural Lug-Tread. Look for it in the LCBO this summer. Support local craft breweries.

Park

I would love to get outside and experiment with this sort of long exposure (e.g., no flash) photography. There is a misty, 'summer evening' feeling to this shot that wouldn't have been possible otherwise.

Mix

I really don't know what to say about this. Words cannot describe how beautiful this packaging for a mix cd is to me. So professional. One day, some day, I'll attempt to do something like this.

Tour

I just learned today from i(heart)music that the follow-up to the Ketch Harbour Wolves wonderful ep, Dead Calm Horizon -- still available for free on their website, I might add -- is coming out shortly. Their first full-length will be titled, Anachronisms.

i(h)m had this to say about the new release:

I can say, without any kind of hyperbole, that Anachronisms is everything I could've hoped for and then some. Not only do Ketch Harbour Wolves capture everything that made Dead Calm Horizon special, they go even further and show that they're capable of much, much more than they showed on their sophomore EP.

Seemed only fitting that I grabbed one of their excellent tour posters for inclusion here today.

Kittens

This is really just a test of Flickr's "Post to Blog" feature. And, since I needed an image, "kittens" seemed like the perfect search term to test with. Who doesn't love kittens?

Tree

Two things: (a.) omgosh, this is awesome and detailed and colourful; (b.) I have no idea how the artist, Yulia Brodskaya, does such intricate work with paper. Outstanding.

Many more samples at her website, along with other her other works.
