a little artistic license..
A friend texted me last evening and told me to go outside and look at the moon - that it was just above the horizon, full, and dark orange. She knows I like that kind of 'stuff', and thought I might be able to get a picture of it.
So, I did the best I could under the circumstances, and then edited the results to *try* to convey on 'film' what I see in my head. And I'm satisfied, more or less.. I like the color, and the shadows add a little something' something' to the whole effect. I also kinda like the fact that the shadows across the face to the moon resemble witches on broomsticks, being so close to Halloween, an' all.. Kinda spooky, right?
But not as spooky as our numbskull of a President throwing out the fact that we're closer to Armageddon than we have been since the Cuban Missile Crisis.. He imagines himself to be the new Jack Kennedy, guiding us through yet another crisis (of his own creation..). "Don't worry - I gotcha!".
But then, this is the same guy who *thinks* he looks like Barrack Obama when he trots across the White House lawn, when in the real world, he looks more like Tim Conway on the old Carol Burnette Show, shuffling across the stage as a decrepit old man.
Uh-huh.. You got us, alright.. You got us into this mess, Joe. But it ain't gonna be you that gets us out of it! Please.. Somebody put Joe back in his basement before he gets us all killed!
