Descending After The Hobbit >><< The Dragon Went On Ahead
As Katharine Hanna points out, the large image on top does tell the story best, and I should crop the the little bit of railing in the lower left corner of that pic… The image on the lower left does have composition and focusing pluses…
Here's the real story:
This collage is created in an iPhone App called Eventiles. It sorts the photos that I have taken during the day on the iPhone 4S, into Events, and it displays them according to an algorithm I don't fully understand. It displays them on the iPhone's tiny screen to give me a feel for what I photographed in a given locale, to which it assigns a name. As you can see it was "An Evening in Park Place" Mall, descending the escalator from the movie theaters. I just found it fascinating, so I copied the screen as a new pic that I saved to show on flickr. I can't distinguish that level of detail on the iPhone's tiny screen.
Now, I really should edit the individual photos, that I can individually retrieve, in iPhoto on my iMac, where I can see details… However, I consider this group just a fun thing that I don't want to "focus on" - Tee Hee - any further… Lol.

About The Hobbit Part II
- :
It is 161 minutes long. That's just too long for me. About half is in battle scenes, each of which is twice as long as it should be to give you the message. The main message was that the main Elves, sister (Evangeline Lilly) and brother (Orlando Bloom), who help the Hobbits - he more reluctantly than she - are very good looking, and incredibly skillful in the martial arts. I got that fairly quickly…;)) So if we cut out half of the length of the fight scenes, we are down to about 120 minutes. That would be a big improvement to me.
I did not see The Hobbit Part I. Cecily liked Part I better than Part II. However once the Dragon came onboard in the last third of Part II, she was enthralled. She loved the Dragon!! I thought even the Dragon scenes were repetitive and could be edited… After Bilbo Baggins spots the quest item and it keeps slipping down a mountain of gold jewelry, time after time, I feel I get the message!! Also the Dragon keeps using his flame throwing trick over and over against the helpless Hobbits…. Not one is hurt by the horrendous flames, though large buildings are set ablaze. They keep ducking the flames which sweep around and destroy everything else. Maybe they have some magical protection, but then why constantly flee and duck?
Cecily agreed that the earlier battle scenes with the Orcs could be cropped or edited, However, she does not agree that the Dragon Scenes are too repetitive and could be edited. She loved the Dragon!!! She did not feel the Dragon was draggin…;))
I liked the Lord Of The Rings better. To me, the Wizard is not as effective in this as he was in earlier works in this Tolkien world...
