Flowers

I see nobody nuh tek me and my competition on but is awwwright!!! ( No really is ok :) - I will try to come up with another one that is hopefully more appealing)
So what do you know- I love flowers !!! I love their colours, textures, shapes , smells- everything bout dem I love. Let me insert here that my favorite flower is the big, beautiful belle of the south- the maganolia- it has it all.
On my way home one night I passed this flower shop. The florist was inside working on an arrangement and since I didn't have anything to do I decided I would go in to watch. Now mi nuh know dis lady from Adam so you see how mi well brazen. Anyway the florist was (and still is so sweet) and I ended up staying there until 1 the next morning and left with a flower in hand. Emiko- san and are are great friends now and I still stop by. She does the most beautiful arrangements and I enjoy sitting and watching. Today though I decided to try out a little thing with some of the discarded flowers. They are nothing close to how beautiful her creations are but it's so nice to see how they make the plave feel nice. Below are a couple pictures I took of them. Who knows, I may get good enough to do your wedding bouquet ;)

My Creations

BIGGEST GRIN

Here is your oppurtuntiy to be a part of this amazing photo blog - the Biggest Grin. It's simple all you have to do is show as many teeth as you possibly can in one smile.

Useful tip

Lower teeth count so remember to drop the lower jaw and lip a bit. ie. skin teet ( example below)

Right now I am the only participant But I hope that won't be the case for long. ( Do mi a look a little company so patronize me ok?) Email me those pictures with the teeth count. and I'll post it. I did a zoom on the picture below and 18 teeth are accounted for but I know we have a king or queen out there who can do better so let's get this show on the road. laters!

Sky Art

Now some claim that Osaka is the ugliest city in Japan. How they came by that I have no idea. Yes, it's the industrial capital so it certainly isn't short on buildings but to me a beautiful city is a clean city with kind people and Osaka well clean and di people dem nice. Plus if you look up you'll realise that there is much beauty to behold.

My sister wrote a song and in it she says - "something about blue skies that make me happy"I am pretty fond of blue skies myself and here on the fourth flour of my my Mansion ( ok so it an apartmanet but the place name 'yoshida mansion' and mansion you must admit has a nice rrrring) I get a fantastic view of the beautiful Osaka sky in blue, pink orange and even purple. I really enjoy it and I've taken a few pics to remind me of how pretty it is . Remember take the time to look up and you may see something amazing !
