Into the distance, a ribbon of black
stretched to the point of no turning back
a flight of fancy on a wind swept field
standing alone my sense reeled
a fatal attraction holding me fast, how
can I escape this irresistable grasp?
can't keep my eyes from the circling sky
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
ice is forming on the tips of my wings
unheeded warnings, I tought I thought of everything
no navigator to guide my way home
unladened, empty and turned to stone
a soul in tension that's learning to fly
condition grounded but determined to try
can't keep my eyes from the -circling- skies
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
above the planet on a wing and a prayer
my grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air
across the clouds I see my shadow fly
out of the corner of my watering eye
a dream unthreatened by the morning light
gould blow this soul right through the roof of the night
there's no sensation to compare with this
suspended animation, a state of bliss
can't keep my mind from the circling sky
tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
[Soundtrack: Pink Floyd - Learning to fly]
Like many families right now, we're doing 'remote learning', and today one of Frost Juniors school tasks was to "Make a Star Wars movie set" out of LEGO.
This is his photo. His idea was to make a cool photo showing his two favourite figures battling above lava. We set it up on our kitchen table using only basic household items.
Along the way, we talked about concepts such as framing, and lighting. What to put in the shot, and what to leave out. Where the focus of the shot should be, and how to best achieve it. About how we could separate Kylo from the background using effective lighting, and how those lighting effects could be achieved. And just generally had fun playing together.
How was your day? Are you remote learning too? Hows it going in your house?
This is totally inspired on this wonderful shot of Chuppy!
Even Lassie has found that book and wanted me to teach her something about photography!
“Lassie, look thru the hole in the camera!”
“What camera?...”
“Lassie! There’s a CAT!”
“OMG!!! Gimme the cat!”
You can see, she has those ears and eyes when it’s about cats!
The best way to wake up Lassie: say the magic word CAT!
Tomorrow I’ll show you her shot!
in the end even dogs can do photography! Proved!
Happy Beginning of the weekend!
PS
About the title: photography is like flying for me, because I can take everything and feel free like flying!

Can I do the charleston? Yes, I can, it's the cat's meow.
Can I do dance poses?
More or less.

"Learning to Fly"
This last month my wife and I just bought a home. It has been a very exciting time for us but also very challenging. I have learned so many things that I never had to do before; buy paint for a whole house, use joint compound to fix walls, change light fixtures, etc. I am very surprised at home much I have done and with very little help.
I am more aware of my need for God to be my compass in life. He has provided for all my needs and been faithful even though I haven't been in most things. Trusting God is like birds leaving the nest.
I have been pushed out into the world.. its time to learn to fly.

This is an "Afterglow"- it's the light even after the sunset, but it mostly appears at the other side of sunset

Into the distance a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast how
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Friction lock, set
Mixtures, rich
Propellers, fully forward
Flaps, set, ten degrees
Engine gauges and suction, check
Mixture set to maximum percent, recheck
Flight instruments
Altimeters, check both
(Garbled word) - on
Navigation lights, on
Strobes, on
Confirm three-eight-echo ready for departure
Hello again, this is now 129.4
129.4, it's to go
You may commence your takeoff, winds over ten knots
Three-ieght-echo
Easy on the brakes, take it easy, its gonna roll this time
Just hand the power gradually, and it
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
I'm open for possibilities. I'm open for choices. I always welcome new ideas. I'm always eager to learn. I'm never going to close my mind from learning.

they actually chase each other away but as long as they can't see each other they are fine. just like people.
Yesterday a drove a route that I don't normally and came across this mural on the back of the Sheboygan Area School District's central office building. I like finding vibrant street art and try to preserve them in photos.
While schools are important in a child's learning, moms play an important part in that process as well. Happy Mother's Day to all!
Just doing a few jumping shots with Ms. Monnie & Aj ,';0]...
Don't think Ms. Monnie quite got the hang of it as she never really took off!
Aj tried to hold her hand, I thought it was sweet.
