Gift Ideas

2008-12-16T01:01:00.000-08:00

It is that time of the year. I have to find a gift for everyone. It is such a challenging task. But I think posters make good gifts. It's still a challenge to pick the right poster though.

If your friends like paintings, then you could get a classical Monet, or Van Gogh.

What else can we consider? Well, if you think they will like photography, then Ansel Adams is a sure bet:

Besides art, we have many other choices when it comes to finding a poster to be a gift. Guys typically like sports, cars. He might like a poster of his favorite football team, or a poster of basketball player. Football posters are probably the most popular sports posters in US. You could find something about soccer, baseball, swimming and whatever else you can think of. If your friend likes boxing, then Muhammad Ali Posters sounds like a classic.

For teenagers, you could get a poster of his or her favorite band. Teens like a music poster on their walls.

Women have varied interests. They might like a painting, or black and white photography on their wall. Photography posters are usually a safe bet for anyone and makes a great gift.

Autumn

2007-11-21T08:41:00.001-08:00

Fall is here and the leaves are beautiful. I live in California. Here seasons are not that well pronounced. We don't get to see too many colors. Those of us who live in eastern US are the lucky ones when it comes to fall. It's very beautiful and very colorful there in the east coast when it's fall time.

So i am looking at the nice posters again and picking my favorites. Here is a nice colorful fall picture:

I love the fall colors :-)

National Parks

2007-11-20T11:47:00.000-08:00

Today it's a beautiful day. Trees are putting up a show with their fall colors. Makes me think i should be spending time in Yosemite or Sequoia National Parks instead of sitting in front of my PC. Anyhow, I can run my slide show of posters and dream about the beautiful nature ot there.

Here is the famous view from yosemite national park:

And here are more, fit to watch in a slide show:
