I work all day, and get half-drunk at night.
Waking at four to soundless dark, I stare.
In time the curtain-edges will grow light.
Till then I see what's really always there:
Unresting death, a whole day nearer now,
Making all thought impossible but how
And where and when I shall myself die.

Of us is expressing there....
Without going out of your door
You can know all things of earth
With out looking out of your window
You could know the ways of heaven
The farther one travels
The less one knows
The less one really knows
The beatles knew nothing but the truth!!!!!
The Rim light
Also called a backlight or hair light, the rim light (the third main light in the three-point lighting plan) is placed behind the subject, out of the picture frame, and often rather higher than the Key light or Fill. The point of the rim light is to provide separation from the background by highlighting the subject's shoulders and hair.
The rim light should be just bright enough to provide separation from the background, but not as bright as the key light.
There is a boundary to people's passions when they act from feelings; but none when they are under the influence of imagination.
Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

Recent project: Mrs W has been redecorating our front room (a process I loath with a vengence, I must admit). She decided that she wanted to modernise it a bit, so she's brought it about twenty years more modern - from '30s to '50s style. So the deco glass lamp shade has gone into store, awaiting redeployment, and this item has been put up in place of the wooden patress and bakelite fittings.
It wasn't easy. The main mounting bracket was a doddle: there's already a joist directly above the position, so no problem there. The wiring mods were easy, as I had already organised all that from the previous time it was replaced. The light assembly itself hangs from the bracket by a large split pin, which goes through the top of the vertical chromed tube, and the conical cover then pushes up to the ceiling and is 'locked in place' by a single grub screw. I put 'locked in place' in inverted commas because, of course, a grub-screw is a fairly useless way of locating anything on a hard chrome surface, so I ended up super-glueing a small piece of rubber band on the end of the screw, to give it a bit of grip. It all took quite a lot of juggling, and I wouldn't want to disturb it more than I have to.
Light Painting @ Kiwanis Park with Alex McClure
Had a fun time meeting up with Alex and learning how he creates this "light art". Pretty fun stuff. :) See more of his work at : alexmcclurephotography.com/
One light -- that's all it takes to ignite a flame of hope within a heart. One light can turn the darkness into day. One light can brighten up the way to lead the way out of a long, dark tunnel of despair. Be that light for someone today!
It keeps going off repeatedly for the first few minutes after starting the car. My wife checked the oil level and it's fine, and this light is hooked up to a pretty simple sensor so it can't be anything except for the oil levels. I'm going to bring the car in for service anyway this week or next, so we should find out if it's something important.
