The one where you folded the paper and cut out little diamond shaped pieces then unfolded the paper to see the design.<br /><br />Of all the art I like your creation the best. It is odd to see someone using a public phone these days. It's odd just to see a public phone.

My favourite shot is the new and old communications image..brilliant, how very cool of you to spot this situation, I knew there were a few dangers when using a mobile too much, didn't realise growing a leg out of the nose was one of them haha!PerthDailyPhotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14077053209100022305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856747756759071827.post-29033212527793656272013-01-28T13:38:12.909+10:002013-01-28T13:38:12.909+10:00Wow, Diane!

It's different, but definitely not what I'd spend that amount of money on! lol I love how you've captured life, the girl who can't make a phone call and the boy with the leg growing out of his nose made me chuckle, as did the new shoes comment. <br /><br />I hope that all is well and hopefully there's no flooding. I remember the posts from the flood there 2 years ago, that was so devastating. darlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04886502544010479581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856747756759071827.post-89702161674360470942013-01-27T00:33:04.312+10:002013-01-27T00:33:04.312+10:00Great series of photos Diane.

It seems everyone has cell phones. Do you have road rage there? I could use one of the dash board cameras, I see some scary driving on my way to work. Glad you are getting rain but hopefully not too much.
