Decorative Wooden Pitcher
Hello Friends,
Langabúð cafe is located in the oldest building in Djupivogur, dating back to 1790. Langabúð is Djupivogur's cultural center, housing museums and exhibitions, and is the corner stone in the town's culture. The museums exhibit the life and work of Ríkarður Jónsson, a famous Icelandic wood carver and portrait sculptor, born on September 20, 1888, and died on January 17, 1977. The museum has at Langabúð contains many carved wooden busts by Jónsson as well as other carved pieces such as this decorative wooden pitcher.
The top image was produced by shoting two cha-cha shots (shoot, slide, shoot) with my Google Pixel 9 Pro and converting them into a phantogram in Photoshop. The bottom image was a 2D shot converted to 3D with Depthmaker.
I can't ignore the Trump administration's awful new records on abducting and deporting immigrants, most of whom have been living here for years, most of whom have no criminal records, and have been productive members of our society. It's a horrible reflection on what America has become for them and for all of us. Faced with what are clearly unpopular policies and desperate to maintain power and avoid accountability, their only option now is to try to do all they can to prevent people from voting them out of office. It's a little over two months to the midterm elections. It's time to stand up, speak out, vote, and encourage others to do so.
Wishing for better,
Barry Rothstein
