never not working

Packin' zines, drawing feathers, and now adding vintage photographs? Sure why not.

When I first opened the icefloe store I wanted it to be a reflection of this blog. A mix of my own photographs and some nice old photograph things, maybe some pieces sold on behalf of friends whose work I am in love with. I started collecting a few carefully selected vintage photographs in their original, beautiful and impossibly well preserved card sleeves from different eras. I love everything about them and they along with my oft overlooked Olympus Trip 35 camera are now looking for new homes >> in the shop <<

John Dixon-Scott

In the late 1920s, the photographer John Dixon-Scott became concerned at the way the rural and urban environment of Britain was changing. He drove around the country with his camera intending to preserve through his pictures what he saw as a vanishing landscape, in a photographic project that took him years.

in the garage

Horse skulls, old gourds and an old chair covered in antlers are completely normal things to have stored in your garage because they are awesome.

Glasgow Uni.

Got a bit lost in a freak snow/ice storm looking for the mysteriously located "Zoology" department of the Hunterian Museum in Glasgow, which we did not find, and I am super upset about to this day*.

I guess we had fun exploring the uni campus in our search because who doesn't love walking in gale force winds when there is snow going inside your eyeballs?

(*It turns out we did but it is closed on weekends. How disappointing.)

Smells like Hay

An average Tanner Family evening.
