Luna Parc

If you live in or near New Jersey, this is truly a must see- Luna Parc.  I barely had enough film for the photography expedition to this bizarre and colorful place. 


It really was one of the weirdest, most photogenic, and eeriest places I've ever been in. There was no one there except the artist in the back of the property building a sculpture out of old trophies. Going into this house with my nephew made us a little uneasy with all the dusty mannequins, old doll heads, glass eyes and taxidermy in every room. 



My nephew and I took photos, ate at a funky diner called the Chatterbox (where they served our fries in little mustangs, how cool?!) and explored a few vacant spots near Stokes State Forest. I'm so proud of him for picking up a film camera at his age (he's only 12) and knowing all the basics already. I gave him a few rolls and wanted to help him load it. "No, I got it, let me do it."  The kid's a champ! I got some shots of him being an explorer and photographer.


Check out this etching I found in an 1800's craft book! We saw the book in a little cafe/antique store on our way home.


I came home to this today.
