Ancient Games (first published as an instructional booklet in 1936) offers basic instructions and game board details for over twenty board games (and several variations) from Africa, Europe, and Asia. Games like Wari, Helma, Halma, Reversi, Ruma, Wu-fu, Chongkak, Go Moku, Nine-Men's Morris, and Yoot are included. (Several of these are related to Mancala.) These would make great projects to create and play for children and adults alike.

So, after a few weeks of vacation, funky rental lens, and kids birthday party providing ample subjects for me, today it's back to my regular schedule, and me hunting for a source of inspiration for something to shoot. The commute presented me with no new options, so that translated into me trying to find a subject in the house, after dark, after the kids went to bed. Thing Two bought Thing One an old sewing table at a yard sale a few weeks back, and gave it to her as a birthday gift yesterday. The table was still filled with old sewing supplies, including these wooden spools of thread and the measuring tape pictured here. I got this composition in my head, but it really felt like it wanted to be lit by late day sun, coming in through a window, which I was fresh out of. This is my best effort at mimicking it with strobes and a touch of white balance adjustment in post. The wooden surface is the top of the sewing table. Nikon D7000 w/Nikkor 18-200mm @ 200mm, 1/250s @ ƒ/9.5, ISO100. Two SB-700s at full power with the built-in diffusers on (14mm zoom), slightly above the subject, to the right and behind (and with the heads as close together as I could get them). Used the gold face of my 5-in-1 reflector to bounce to fill the shadows and color the light a bit. Cropped slightly, and boosted vibrance and definition a hair in Aperture, but pretty close to straight off the camera.
He said she was far brighter than most British girls he knew (she was also a very talented musician), and soon Queen Victoria was to be impressed by the intelligence of the girl, whom she called "Sally". She remained Sally's friend and protector until she was old enough to marry. Sally lived with the Forbes family for a year, then was sent to Sierra Leone for her education (the Queen thinking the damp weather would be bad for her health). But Sally was very unhappy, and in 1855 the Queen agreed for her to return to England. She lived a comfortable life with patrons in Gillingham, and then Brighton.In August 1862 Sally reluctantly submitted to marriage with James Davis, a Yoruba businessman. It seems that Sally put up resistance, but having deemed him suitable the Queen put pressure on her to accede to his request. The wedding, in Brighton, was extravagant: there were sixteen bridesmaids and the wedding party was made up of white ladies with African gentlemen, and African ladies with white gentlemen. In the above picture you can see her in her wedding dress.She visited the Queen in 1867 with her daughter – whom she christened Victoria and also became the Queen's godddaughter – and then returned to Lagos where she had two more children.Sadly, she'd been in poor health for some time: she had tuberculosis, and died at the age of 37 in 1880. She was buried in Funchal Madeira.Upon her death the Queen wrote in her diary: "Saw poor Victoria Davies, my black godchild, who learnt this morning of the death of her dear mother". Queen Victoria was so proud of Sally's daughter that when she passed her music examination, teachers and children had a day's holiday. Sarah's story shouldn't be romanticized too much (she had a comfortable but somewhat unhappy life), but it's certainly surprising.
