I Dropped the Ball on Gift Idea Posting, But It’s Not Too Late to Enjoy This

Photographer Andrew Zuckerman’s strikingly detailed images of animals from around the world are as delightful as they are inspiring. This collection of astonishing studio portraits of 175 wild creatures from baby leopards to parrots, bears, mandrills, and many more are stunningly foregrounded against white backgrounds, depicting their subjects with rare sensitivity, insight, humor, and wonder. Zuckerman also an up-and-coming filmmaker, whose first short film, High Falls, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2007 has created a volume perfect for animal lovers, photography fans, and anyone fascinated by the world around us. Creature is a beautiful and thought-provoking look at the fragile wonders of the natural world.

Gift Watch: Color Calendar

December 11, 2007

This year, I’ll be posting a regular Gift Watch, featuring items that I think would make great gifts. Even the godless exchange gifts in December, and there’s no shortage of cool gadgets, books, records and art to shower on your friends and family this year. Enjoy.

Here’s a great gift for a designer, artist or color lover anywhere: the Color Calendar @ You Work for Them.

“In the Colour Calendar 2008, every day gets its own special color from Switzerland’s design genius, Moritz Zwimpfer. This appealing, spiral-bound desk calendar is a bit like a Pantone book with room for notes; each day’s color brings its own scent, taste…”

Scent? Well, ok. Each day features a solid block of a color that can inspire your day, whatever project you’re in the middle of, or your mood. It’s out of stock at the moment but there is an option to be notified when the calendar is available again, so take a look!
