Today is the greatest
Day I've ever known
Can't live for tomorrow
Tomorrow's much too long
I'll burn my eyes out
Before I get out

We'll go to peepshows and freak shows
We'll go to discos, casinos
We'll go where people go and let go

I realise that I haven't posted for a couple days for my 365 Day project. I have shot images but I felt that they were subpar. This is my Day 4 submission.

A great blue heron appears to be deep in thought. Actually he was fishing and now is contemplating the wisdom in staying so close to an approaching kayak. (me) The wind blew me silently closer until I was quite close.

If I could threw myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
Into the light
And to the day

It's Friday, hurrah! Wishing everyone a lovely weekend. :)

You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away

“But to die as lovers may - to die together, so that they may live together.”
― Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Carmilla

Wishing parents everywhere a lovely Sunday, whether it's their official 'Mother's Day' or not. :)

From my shoot yesterday.

Sending love and good wishes to the wonderful members of Snap the Planet. :)

Another evening on the Central Coast...

2 ladies stroll under the glass covered archway of Denver Center for Performing Arts and past stylized, abstract form. I see a Picasso-esque female body, how about you?

Well, it's back to the usual wind and rain and me scouting around looking for something to shoot. :(

So much rain lately, finding subjects indoors :)

Living in NH I am fortunate to get to be up close and personal with all the presidential candidates every 4 years. I go to many events regardless of whether I like or dislike the candidate.. I know people get going on political posts, this isn't intended to be one..Just a post of a photo I took yesterday so no need to go off on why you do or don't like her..Just because I took photos of her doesn't mean I like her..All candidates that come get to see me with my camera in their face...

The Pismo Beach Pier is officially lit with the annual Holiday Tree of lights...Christmas is on its way!

A shot I got unexpectedly as I was walking down the pier I noticed the bride and groom aside while she was crying happy tears

Isn't it just?

The National D Day Memorial is in Bedford, VA, nestled in the Shenandoah Valley. You may wonder why Bedford. Bedford, VA suffered the highest per capita losses in the D Day invasion at Normandy on June 6, 1944. This memorial was constructed to honor all those who lost their lives. I struggled with which pictures to share (since I could only share 4). If you ever have the opportunity, go see it. I cannot express how moving it is. The water in the pool has jets that are set to go off and replicate the bullets hitting the water.The sound is impactful to say the very least.

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love

Gotta pick up that camera and make use of whatever is handy

This is an infrared photo using a Hoya R72 filter and a standard DSLR

This is from just outside the house, one sunny morning. The Lavender is slowly disappearing with the oncoming winter, thus the name.

Ruby Dog's appointment at the hairdresser's seems well overdue.

Empty playgrounds,
Always an eerie sight,
Echos of squealing children,
ghosts of fun had in summer sunlight
travelling through the autumn mists

Taking this photo did pose some difficulties. The wind direction affected the outcome very much. Handling the dark cityscape on one side and the bright fireworks on the other was the biggest challenge to me.

This was an experiment using my new strobe lights. The more I look at this image the more I find I need to clean up.

The best camera in the world ? "The one you have with you when a shot presents itself"

My grandmother gave me this clutch from her "dance hall days"...it's amazing to look at a thing with age and think about the life that it has had and the places that it has been.
