what she saw {london london}

i just got the pictures back from my herco box camera.  i am thrilled with how they turned out--it's always fun getting the pictures back because you never really know how they're going to work.  she (my little film camera, that is) has a way of reinventing the picture into something way cooler than i expected looking through the 1cm square viewfinder.  the greatest is when sometimes i forget to wind the film inbetween pictures so they're double-exposed, kind of like when two stories overlap in your dreams and you end up dating darth vader, or eating bumblebee popsicles, similar things.

as it so happens, none of these are double exposed, and all of them are sweet little memories from the lovely london.

thank you herco.

the orangery for tea.  the cake table, right when you walked in, each cake platter a promise of good things to come:
