Francis Alÿs, The Nightwatch, 2004 [x]

Surveillance cameras observe a fox exploring the Tudor and Georgian rooms of the National Portrait Gallery at night.

What a sneaky little guy!

This is the kind of thing that inspired me to name this blog what I did. Two things - a fox, a London museum - come together to create something new. And different. And maybe kind of weird. The two are combined and I can’t look at these pictures and see the fox or the museum distinctly. They’ve come to form a new meaning for me, and that meaning is the silly, chuckling sensation I feel right now when I consider a fox touring the National Portrait Gallery on his own one night.

Bridal luncheon outside in Meridian, MS for my good friend Menton. It was the most beautiful, classic southern bridesmaids luncheon, complete with shrimp n grits, sweet tea and mimosas. 
I liked this picture because it’s a glimpse at the bride, her flower girl, and maid of honor Hannah before things got too crazy that weekend. Also, textures and patterns.
You should check out more pics from the weekend on Hannah’s blog: http://chiclittlepoorgirl.com
