Multiplication in the Minor Key DSC_5924

Another go at multiple exposures in a street tree next to a park. This is a 180 degree as again I couldn't get around the tree. I really wanted to capture the autumnal colours of the trees at the moment with the fallen leaves on the ground. I fear by the time I can go looking for the right tree, the autumn colours will be gone.

 

The title is a play on words from the Billy Bragg Song "Way Over Yonder in the Minor Key" as tonight was the second night of his concerts I would have been attending.

 

"I lived in a place called Okfuskee

And I had a little girl in a holler tree

I said, "little girl, it's plain to see

Ain't nobody that can sing like me

Ain't nobody that can sing like me"

She said, "it's hard for me to see

How one little boy got so ugly"

Yes, my little girly, that might be

But there ain't nobody that can sing like me

Ain't nobody that can sing like me

Way over yonder in the minor key

Way over yonder in the minor key

There ain't nobody that can sing like me"

I think it is an old Woodie Guthrie song and at one of Billy's concerts where he sand this song, he reminded us that the boy is not talking about singing ;-)
