I have been chasing the light all week and I am bushed! I took a lot of photos during our storms the other day, which included tornado warnings all day. Luckily we didn't have much more than a lot rain.
I ordered a set of EI Wires in 6 colors. They come with a battery pack and have 3 modes (steady, blinking, and strobe). The wires are bendy but do not have a memory and are hard to rangle!
This image has two wires and I set the purple one to blink in this shot. I used another one of my Mom's glass paperweights. This one is clear. I adjusted the clarity and blacks and removed some spots.

"Be present. Make love. Make tea. Avoid small talk. Embrace conversation. Buy a plant, water it. Make your bed. Make someone else’s bed. Have a smart mouth, and quick wit. Run. Make art. Create. Swim in the ocean. Swim in the rain. Take chances. Ask questions. Make mistakes. Learn. Know your worth. Love fiercely. Forgive quickly. Let go of what doesn’t make you happy. Grow."

12/12/09 – Day 345 of 365
It looked promising for a sunrise so I grabbed the camera and headed down to the Fox River. The air was frigid, but exhilarating and indeed, the sunrise was spectacular!
I haven't posted in Flickr in awhile and I just wanted to share a particular image I was happy with. I'm trying to explore different facets of my photography and wanted to convey the loneliness and apathy with the direction that my life is heading.

Haruki Murakami's— "On Seeing the 100% Perfect Girl One Beautiful April Morning" #💕☔#🌿☁
...
One beautiful April morning, in search of a cup of coffee to start the day, the boy was walking from west to east, while the girl, intending to send a special-delivery letter, was walking from east to west, but along the same narrow street in the Harajuku neighborhood of Tokyo. They passed each other in the very center of the street. The faintest gleam of their lost memories glimmered for the briefest moment in their hearts. Each felt a rumbling in their chest. And they knew:
She is the 100% perfect girl for me.
He is the 100% perfect boy for me.
But the glow of their memories was far too weak, and their thoughts no longer had the clarity of fouteen years earlier. Without a word, they passed each other, disappearing into the crowd. Forever.
A sad story, don’t you think?
Yes, that’s it, that is what I should have said to her. .

Ever since we moved here in Missouri, I always see this Red Old Barn on my way to work. I have been dying to have an intimate moment with it to capture its timeless beauty.
On my way home I know that the time, and light, is right to introduce it to the the world. Grabbed my gears, tucked my wives(camera+Ann) and kids... booommm... perfect...
“Learning became her.
She loved the smell of the book from the shelves, the type on the pages, the sense that the world was an infinite but knowable place.
Every fact she learned seemed to open another question, and for every question there was another book.”

"The mythologies we ascribe to, whether consciously or unconsciously, determine how we measure, reflect on, and make sense of our experiences.
We must take responsibility for deriving meaning from our life experiences, our relationships, and our place in the cosmos as a whole — and it's up to us, each, as individuals, to create for ourselves our own personal code, to become our own heroes, and embark again on a fresh exploration"
