Neighborhood Christmas display humor. I’ve been photographing this display ongoing now, since it was installed by a neighbor. Being a short distance from our property edge makes for an excellent target for my camera gear, day and night. Like many people who have neighbors I am vigilant to the comings and going’s of all sorts of events especially during these Covid days. To my surprise with the recent holidays and festivals, our fine neighbors across the way, celebrate and share by creating beautiful displays. This display is mainly a night spectacle with the extravagant lighting and candy canes and Gnomes. In the daytime it can go unnoticed. One morning, I noticed that the Gnomes were down and instantly thought that vandals had destroyed it. Many thoughts race through my mind as to what will happen to fix it. Was the creator angry. Will they remove it for fear of it happening again. I went about my day. That night it was up again. I thought, that’s great. Screw those vandals. Hurray for them standing up to them. The next morning they were down again and I thought , the war is on. Who would do such a thing? I started to suspect various neighbors and certain kids. Should I video the scene and confront the artist with evidence. No, I can’t get involved. Just help if asked, I said to myself. This has been going on for days now and I can’t believe this would happen where we live. Maybe it’s something else. Just the other night right before putting my head to pillow, I heard a huge crash noise. I went outside to investigate and sure enough somebody had crashed their car right next to the display, luckily, cutting the power and totaling their car not the display. Fire department, ambulance and CHP responded and dealt with the incident. In the morning Gnomes were down but the scene was spared. That night the display was on again and Gnomes were up. I said to myself, I need to rethink what’s going on for sanity sake. Maybe the artist puts the Gnomes up at night and down to sleep during the day. That’s it. Not paying to close attention, I always miss the artist doing it. I went a few more day thinking this and never seeing the artist do this. No more vandal thoughts, thankfully. It finally occurred to me the real goings on and realized I was born in an era where inflatable Gnomes never existed. Merry Christmas to all and even you vandals and crazy drivers.

Humor Monastery located in Mănăstirea Humorului, about 5 km north of the town of Gura Humorului, Romania. It is a monastery for nuns dedicated to the Dormition of Virgin Mary, or Theotokos. It was constructed in 1530 by Voievod Petru Rareş and his chancellor Teodor Bubuiog. The monastery was built over the foundation of a previous monastery that dated from around 1415. The Humor monastery was closed in 1786 and was not reopened until 1990.
The church has been inscribed by UNESCO on its list of World Heritage Sites, as one of the Painted churches of Moldavia.
To honor the Brickworld 2014 theme: "Candy, Sweet Escapes" is this icon of 1950's American childhood: the Good Humor ice-creme truck. This model is a minifig scale version of the prototype used in the Doomtown sequence of "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." Its presence in the film contrasted the horror of atomic testing with the innocence of suburban life.
Custom stickers and chrome-plated elements are used extensively. Innovative use of a white structural sticker for the front wheel wells. The rear tail lights use circular pieces discarded from Belleville foam elements inserted into 1x1 round plates. The "bomb pop" is a Friends lipstick with two thin stickers applied.
I have been purging my massive files for days. Found this oldie and decided to keep it just for laughs. I remember finding this art work on the back of an old semi- trailer in Chatt.,Tn.

Humor was one of the first of Moldavia's painted monasteries to be frescoed and, along with Voroneţ, is probably the best preserved. The dominant colour of the frescoes is a reddish brown. The master painter responsible for Humor's frescoes, which were painted in 1535, is one Toma of Suceava.
The church has been inscribed by UNESCO on its list of World Heritage Sites, as one of the Painted churches of Moldavia.
If the banks are gonna continue killing trees to make all these pointless credit card invitations, we might as well make good use of the high quality paper that they are printed on, at their expense.
The endless shredding seemed so tedious and wasteful that I have decided to actually have some fun filling them in and mailing them back. This is my first attempt. I'll let you know if Chase responds!

La carrera ha sido dura...los rivales han estado apretando todas las vueltas...los neumáticos no eran los acertados...pero creo que aún podemos mejorar nuestro patinete...
(esta foto la tomo como un punto de humor a el mundo del deporte, las carreras, el look de los pilotos...en fin...algo de humor :)...)
I don't know about you, but when I shoot a certain kind of uncharacteristic subject (see last 2 -- call it faux macabre) I start to see it everywhere.

I tried to re-create this photo for Flickr Commons 13th anniversary challenge. I chose this subject because my mother's father would have been ten years old in 1918. He was lucky enough to survive his pandemic and live into his nineties. And here we have two boys starting their century with a pandemic. I can only hope they survive this one and live long and prosperous lives. #FlickrCommons13
