Here’s how it works:
1. Each week, we’ll provide a theme for creative inspiration. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog anytime before the following Friday when the next photo theme will be announced.
2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “Weekly Photo Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use a “postaday2013″ or “postaweek2013″ tag.

This afternoon was a picture perfect spring day so I went for a walk around Da Ming Lake, a sight Jinan is particularly proud of. I went into the scholar’s home, which is a small museum. I’m not sure of the era of the home, but the furnishings were exquisite. I’d love to have such furniture, though I’d want modern futon or mattress for the bed.

The light is changing

You can’t see it, but the interior’s changing, getting restored.

Hopefully, we go to change

When I was little, I remember my grandmother took me to the Art Institute often and I loved the miniature rooms donated by Mrs. Thorne in the 1930s. I hadn’t seen that part of the museum for years. Since the Art Institute’s newsletter mentioned the rooms were decorated for Christmas, I took them in today. I don’t think you get the charm of their size from these photos.
