baby you can start again
laughing in the open air; have yourself another dream
tonight
maybe we can start again
- Brandon Flowers, Only the Young
I had to check a groundhog trap today to see if there was a dead groundhog in it. I cannot even begin to tell you how much I do not want to find a dead groundhog. Seriously. It makes my insides hurt to even think about it.

Built in 1908 during the Edwardian heyday of the band movement before the Great War, the Queen Alexandra Bandstand is a beautiful and well maintained example of creative bandstand design. It was named after the then British Queen, wife of Edward VII.
Erected in the central median strip of Ballarat’s premier boulevard, Sturt Street between Doveton and Mair Streets, the Queen Alexandra Bandstand is surrounded by leafy oak trees and other deciduous European exotic trees. It is the second bandstand along Sturt Street, the other being the Titanic Memorial Bandstand. The Queen Alexandra bandstand is built in a polygonal form surmounted by a Moorish or Russian influenced onion dome. The bandstand has particularly fine wrought iron detailing incorporating musical motifs, including harps, horns and Edwardian styled music stands and is an important and exotic element of the streetscape of Sturt Street.
The Queen Alexandra Bandstand it is now one of the few remaining examples of bandstands in Victoria. It serves as a tangible reminder of a highly popular form of entertainment, prominent on the community agenda for many years. The construction of the bandstand and its survival until now also reflects the prominence of music in Ballarat's cultural and civic identity.

~ The one who paints my black-and-white days is you.
So I was invited into this group, "52 Weeks Musically Inspired". I thought I'd give it a try, and this is my first. I've had the idea for a while and never knew how to do it, so I painted this pic and made it b/w, looked for a nice coloured, happy dress, and this one was the only one I could find. Thanks to my sister for "lending" it to me ;)
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
From your feet up to your hair - more than anything I swear
I wanna be - your underwear
From Bryan Adams
I wanna be your underwear

Founded in 1993, the Krewe of Orpheus takes its name from the musically-inclined son of Zeus and Calliope. Founding members included Harry Connick, both the junior and senior.
In New Orleans, the krewe established themselves as a superkrewe with their first parade in 1994, which rolled with 700 riders. They were the first super Krewe to allow both male and female riders.
The Krewe's throws include a number of popular items including emblem beads, stuffed animals, signature beads, light-up Orpheus medallion beads, cups, three different types of doubloons, and 4-foot-long stuffed dragons.
They have a number of notable floats including the Dolly Trolley, the horse-drawn bus that was used in the opening of Hello Dolly with Barbra Streisand, the Smoking Mary which is a six unit float that looks like a steam locomotive, a Trojan horse and the Orpheus Leviathan Float, which is a three unit, 139-foot float, and the first Carnival float to use extensive fiber optic lighting.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Fats Domino wass the honorary grand marshall for 2014. His eldest son, Antoine Domino III, rode in the parade and perform his 85 year old father's music.
In addition to Fats Domino, Quentin Tarantino reigned as the krewe's celebrity monarch.

"...my bank account is a shoebox in the ground
and empty..."
Remote died today, which reminds me that I need to put a new one on order like three hours ago. Oops. I really missed having a remote when romping around in some of these old houses, it's kind of a must have if you ask me.
Going out to an abandoned school hopefully Wednesday if I'm a big jerk and I sneak away without the guy who told me about it :P I know, I really should wait till Sunday...will see. I think I can. I always love how kari looks so cute in here abandon exploring, I'll try and leave next time in a dress with leggings, but I'm just a little hippie kid at heart....sometimes I miss livin' and thinkin' and dreamin' like I used to when I bounced around the country hiking all the time and sleeping outside or at communes in New Mexico...but it's really not that easy lol, I like working plumbing :)
<3 xoxox
i'm clearly phoning this one in.
i wanted to play again in Musically Challenged. but i've hardly time to take any photos to pair with songs right now.
instead i sifted through the lyrics of the ten weekly songs and then i dug, dug, dug through the photos i've taken in the past several weeks, looking for a hit. however, nothing stood out to me, nothing was that well suited. no cobblestone streets or a halo streetlamp that scream 'Sound of Silence'. (or whisper, as the case may be)
so i leave you, once again, with further proof that my predilection towards the pacific ocean and kid reflections is alive and well.

Take me on a trip, I'd like to go some day
Take me to New York, I'd love to see LA.
I really want to come kick it with you.
You'll be my American Boy. American Boy.

* i'm actually delighted to have discovered this song, though. thanks, Musically Challenged!
it's got this funky but tranquil thing going. not something i'd normally gravitate to, but glad i had a listen. plus it's got three Best Things Ever in it: a British singer, Kanye West, and Adidas shell toes.

edit: this totally fits with TOTW: "Happy Happy, Joy Joy", as well! the kid is clearly happy splashing around!

**Explored**
I'm not sure how well this shot fits the song, but I gave it a shot. For one of the weekly song choices posted by Pikespice in Musically Challenged this week.
This was taken just outside of Prehistoric Forest, where a bunch of old kiddie rides were dumped. They were fun to shoot. I have some cute shots of Tom, Ashley and Shannon shooting them too. :)
Musically Challenged: Rooney - Blueside
Explored.
...
One night of magic rush
The start a simple touch
One night to push and scream
And then relief
Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love
To call for hands of above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
...
not much magic today, I wanted to keep it nice and simple to show how awesome my new (and super cheap) gary fong lightsphere wannabe works. I totally made it! which is AWESOME. i am finding new and interesting ways to do cheap photography!!! my new favorite site is www.diyphotography.net and some others.
the lightsphere wannabe was something i came across while researching diffusers. you can find the dubbed "ak49" (because it only costs literally 49 cents!!) at this link here
many thanks to Burnt Umber for hooking it up with the materials from The Container Store in Miami. (his wife works there! its AWESOME!!!!! the material costs only 25 cents a sheet which is enough to make one diffuser)
i LOVE it. i also love my Joe Demb flip-it! diffuser kit. I am not a big fan of the sto-fen omni bounce. I think I got robbed. it doesnt even go on my flash easily, but I'm going to keep it just in case I might need it some day when the flip-it and the "ak49" dont cut it.
in the meantime.....I missed you guys!!!!! I have alot to mail out in the coming days, and i have an xmas shoot with my aunt and uncle's family tomorrow night, I will be putting the Demb flip-it into practice and see how that goes. I'll keep you guys posted!
for now I will be using hot shoe flash and working on how to bounce and diffuse the light before I venture (afford) triggers and more flashes to go off camera.
strobist info: hot shoe flash with head tilted back to 95/85 degree angle towards white wall with "ak49" to bounce light off wall for fill. flash was on manual at 1/16 power and zoomed for 35mm.
photo info: the photo was shot at 18mm and cropped in. added a screen blending mode layer and soft light blending mode layer at drastically reduced opacity and a cyan photo filter at a low opacity. backdrop is anti-pill fleece. i love fleece its so easy to use.

Founded in 1993, the Krewe of Orpheus takes its name from the musically-inclined son of Zeus and Calliope. Founding members included Harry Connick, both the junior and senior.
In New Orleans, the krewe established themselves as a superkrewe with their first parade in 1994, which rolled with 700 riders. They were the first super Krewe to allow both male and female riders.
The Krewe's throws include a number of popular items including emblem beads, stuffed animals, signature beads, light-up Orpheus medallion beads, cups, three different types of doubloons, and 4-foot-long stuffed dragons.
They have a number of notable floats including the Dolly Trolley, the horse-drawn bus that was used in the opening of Hello Dolly with Barbra Streisand, the Smoking Mary which is a six unit float that looks like a steam locomotive, a Trojan horse and the Orpheus Leviathan Float, which is a three unit, 139-foot float, and the first Carnival float to use extensive fiber optic lighting.
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Fats Domino wass the honorary grand marshall for 2014. His eldest son, Antoine Domino III, rode in the parade and perform his 85 year old father's music.
In addition to Fats Domino, Quentin Tarantino reigned as the krewe's celebrity monarch.

Artist: Harriet Backer
Creation date: 1896
Throughout Harriet Backer's 50-year career, women's rights changed radically. Being a woman and an artist became accepted. Backer was talented and determined, inspiring a new generation of women and men in the Norwegian art world.
In Backer’s family, art and culture were part of how the children were raised. Her older sister Agathe was musically gifted and wanted to become a pianist. She had to go abroad to learn, and Harriet became her sister's traveling companion. This gave Harriet the opportunity to visit art museums and get to know the historical masters of the art world at a young age. Agathe eventually became a renowned composer and concert pianist, while Harriet became an important artist.
Backer showed an early talent and interest in art, but embarked on full-time studies rather late in life. In 1874, at 29 years, she decided to travel to Munich. The art community in Norway was small, so one had to go abroad.
The art academies in Europe were reserved for men in those days, but women could receive private tuition or attend "women's classes". During her years in Munich, Backer had several teachers. In 1878 she moved to Paris to continue her studies.
Being accepted for exhibition at the Salon in Paris was an important step on the path to becoming a professional artist. In 1880, Backer was accepted with the painting Solitude. Hundreds of artists exhibited at these exhibitions at the same time, and the paintings hung close together, from floor to ceiling. The jury thought Backer's painting was excellent, and she was honoured with a diploma, known as a Mention honorable.
In Munich, Backer learned to paint in a style characterised by a high level of detail and dark colours. We see this for example in Avskjeden (The Farewell), from 1878. When she came to Paris, she was greatly inspired by impressionism. In one of her best-known paintings, Blått interiør (Blue Interior), painted five years after Avskjeden, the transformation of her painting style is evident. Clear and pure colours dominate the composition. From this point on, the interaction between figure, interior and light effects became a theme that permeated Backer's paintings. How to create contrasts between the light indoors and outdoors? How are colours perceived in lamplight compared to daylight? She approached her subjects with these issues in mind.
Backer started her career with a desire to become a portrait painter. She painted many friends and acquaintances, and also received portrait commissions. But it is her interior scenes she has become best known for. She painted interiors from all walks of life – from farmhouses to bourgeois living rooms. For the most part, Backer's rooms are populated by women.
I think I serve the cause of women best by concentrating like a man – Harriet Backer
In 1888, Backer established herself in Norway, and from 1892 to 1910 ran a painting school in Kristiania. She became a popular teacher. Her openness to new ideas in both art and social development was appreciated. She sympathised with the women's movement, but did not actively participate in political work.
In the women's cause, Backer was recognised more for what she did than what she said – as a renowned artist she was an important role model. Together with friend and fellow artist Kitty Kielland, she was a pioneer who paved the way for women to have the opportunity to choose art as a career path.
About Harriet Backer:
Born 21 January 1845 in Holmestrand.
Lived in Paris in 1878–1888.
Started an art school in Kristiania in the 1890s. Backer’s students included Nikolai Astrup, Halfdan Egedius, Harald Sohlberg, Henrik Lund, Helga Ring Reusch, Astri Welhaven and Sara Fabricius (Cora Sandel).
Died 25 March 1932 in Oslo.
Important works:
Solitude (1878–1880)
Blått interiør (Blue Interior) (1883)

On 11 June 2022 the new National Museum opened in Oslo. This is the largest museum in the Nordics. The new museum now consists of the collections of the former National Gallery, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Norwegian Museum of Decorative Arts and Design.
The new museum has a permanent exhibition of about 6 500 objects. Design, arts and crafts, fine art as well as contemporary art will be exhibited alongside each other. As such, the permanent exhibition highlights interesting connections between different collections that previously have been on show at three different museums. Additionally, audiences will be able to see the most famous paintings by the Norwegian painter Edvard Munch, including The Scream (1893) and Madonna (1894).
The building was designed by Kleihues + Schuwerk Gesellschaft von Architekten, with emphasis on dignity and longevity over sensationalist architecture. Great care was given to achieve a balance with the museum’s surroundings and the existing monuments in the area, such as Oslo City Hall and Akershus Fortress.
The most eye-catching feature of the new museum is the large, illuminated exhibition hall on top of the building. It will be used for temporary exhibitions.
The rooftop terrace offers a unique view of the inner Oslo fjord. The square in front of the main entrance has become an urban meeting place, with benches and a café that invites you in to take a rest.

Orpheus in the Underworld
Jacques Offenbach
Orphée aux enfers (Orpheus in the Underworld) is an opéra bouffon (a form of operetta), or opéra féerie in its revised version, by Jacques Offenbach. The French text was written by Ludovic Halévy and later revised by Hector-Jonathan Crémieux.
The work, first performed in 1858, is said to be the first classical full-length operetta. Offenbach's earlier operettas were small-scale one-act works, since the law in France did not allow certain genres of full-length works. Orpheus was not only longer, but more musically adventurous than Offenbach's earlier pieces.
This also marked the first time that Offenbach used Greek mythology as a backdrop for one of his buffooneries. The operetta is an irreverent parody and scathing satire on Gluck and his Orfeo ed Euridice and culminates in the risqué Galop infernal ("Infernal Galop") that shocked some in the audience at the premiere. Other targets of satire, as would become typical in Offenbach's burlesques, are the stilted performances of classical drama at the Comédie-Française and the scandals in society and politics of the Second French Empire.
The "Infernal Galop" from Act II, Scene 2, is famous outside classical circles as the music for the "can-can" (to the extent that the tune is widely, but erroneously, called "can-can") . Saint-Saëns borrowed the Galop, slowed it to a crawl, and arranged it for the strings to represent the tortoise in The Carnival of the Animals.
Playbill from an 1874 revival
The first performance of the two-act, opéra bouffe version took place at the Théâtre des Bouffes-Parisiens in Paris on 21 October 1858 and ran for an initial 228 performances. It then returned to the stage a few weeks later, after the cast had had a rest. For the Vienna production of 1860, Carl Binder provided an overture that became famous, beginning with its bristling fanfare, followed by a tender love song, a dramatic passage, a complex waltz, and, finally, the renowned can-can music.
In America the work played in German at the Stadt Theatre, on Broadway, from March 1861.[4] It had its Czech premiere in 1864, under Adolf Čech.[5] It had a run of 76 performances at Her Majesty's Theatre, in London, beginning on 26 December 1865, in an adaptation by J. R. Planché.
A four-act version, designated as an opéra féerie, was first performed at the Théâtre de la Gaîté on 7 February 1874.[7] (This has proved less popular over time than the original two act version.)
Sadler's Wells opera presented an English version by Geoffrey Dunn beginning on 16 May 1960.[8] In the 1980s, English National Opera staged the opera freely translated into English by Snoo Wilson with David Pountney. The production was notable for its satirical portrayal of the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as the character Public Opinion. The first performance was at the Coliseum Theatre in London on 5 September 1985.The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company performed the work in the 1990s.
Critical appreciation
In the eyes of Clément and Larousse the piece is une parodie grotesque et grossière (a coarse and grotesque parody), full of vulgar and indecent scenes that give off une odeur malsaine (an unhealthy odor). In the opinion of Piat, however, Offenbach's Orphée is, like most of his major operettas, a bijou (jewel) that only snobs will fail to appreciate. The piece was not immediately a hit, but critics' condemnation of it, particularly that of Jules Janin, who called it a "profanation of holy and glorious antiquity," only provided vital publicity, serving to heighten the public's curiosity to see the piece.
Description de l’œuvre
Orphée aux enfers est un opéra bouffe, une féerie à grand spectacle, brillante et pétillante.
Parodiant les anciennes versions lyriques du mythe d'Orphée, Offenbach se moque de l’hypocrisie et de la recherche du plaisir à tout prix de son époque, avec une impertinence et une causticité, qui choquèrent profondément, en leurs temps, une partie du public, bourgeois et populaire.
Ce fut le premier grand succès de Jacques Offenbach, et l’on trouve déjà ce qui explosera dans La Belle Hélène, La Vie parisienne ou encore La Périchole, ce mariage parfait du théâtre et de la musique, du sérieux et de la trivialité. Tout brille dans cet opéra, où tout est prétexte à chanson, la verve satirique de son livret autant que la qualité de sa partition musicale proprement jubilatoire.
Résumé
C’est une folie que cette histoire de couples en crise, d’Olympe en révolte, d’Enfers orgiaques où chacun ne pense qu’à son propre plaisir et tout le monde ne rêve que de fête, de séduction, d’amour et s’en donne à cœur joie.
Acte 1
Comme on le dit familièrement, « Il y a de l’eau dans le gaz » dans le couple d’Orphée (ténor), le violoniste et d’Eurydice (soprano). Le premier charme les autres nymphes tandis que la seconde flirte avec le berger Aristée (ténor), qui n’est autre que Pluton, le dieu des Enfers. Fort heureusement pour Orphée, Eurydice meurt. Mais c’est sans compter avec l’opinion publique (mezzo-soprano) qui enjoint Orphée de partir la rechercher au séjour des morts.
Acte 2
Sur l’Olympe, Une rébellion de dieux remet en cause l’autorité de Jupiter (baryton). Junon (mezzo-soprano), son épouse, lui fait une scène de ménage quand arrive Pluton, à qui Jupiter reproche son inconduite. Orphée et l’Opinion Publique viennent réclamer Eurydice. C’est alors que Jupiter, accompagné des dieux, décide, par curiosité, de descendre aux Enfers.
Acte 3
Aux enfers Eurydice s’ennuie malgré les distractions du bouffon Styx (baryton). La vigilance de ce dernier est trompée par Jupiter, transformé en mouche, qui parvient à approcher Eurydice et à la séduire.
Acte 4
Pendant ce temps là, Pluton organise une bacchanale et empêche Jupiter d’emmener Eurydice. Quand à Orphée, guidée par l’Opinion publique, il doit ramener Eurydice sur terre, mais Jupiter, jaloux et trompeur, élimine les deux prétendants et abandonne la nymphe à Bacchus.

Alright sir
Sure I'll have another one it's early
Three olives, shake it up, I like it dirty (dirty)
Tequila for my friend it makes her flirty (flirty)
Trust me
I'm the instigator of underwear
Showing up here and there uh oh (oh no)
I'm always on a mission from the get go
So what if it's only 1 o'clock in the afternoon
It's never too soon to send out all the invitations to the last night (of your life)
Lordy Lordy Lordy
I can't help it, I like to party, it's genetic
It's electrifying wind me up and watch me go
Where she stops nobody knows
A good excuse to be a bad influence on you and you
************
So, I had another idea for this song, but I'm cheating and using an oldie for this week's Musically Challenged list, but it's mostly b/c I'm just trying to promote y'all go over and give it a shot at playing. :)
HMAM, too!
I know, you're all thinking..WTF dude?!?!
So let me explain. A few months ago it was Housework Is Evils turn to pick the songs for the Musically Challenged group. She added a bonus song and basically dared anyone to do a photo for it. Thats when I came up with the idea for the Tub Photo. Well when she commented on the image she said: However, I believe I now have you pegged. You are sooo one of those people who cannot help but to take any dare, aren't you?
I could so have fun with that fact...*rubs hands together while grinning evilly*
Then a month later my Flickr friend insomniac was selling some Detroit T-Shirts he designed and asking if you buy one to please take a picture and post it. Thats where you got THIS & THIS image from.
Well I guess that T-Shirt idea got Housework Is Evils head spinning and she FM'd me and said she had a shirt she dared me to wear and post a photo of.
Now I am not someone that just does any stupid thing someone dares them to do. I weigh the risk vs. reward and decide if it's worth it. Not just for silly little photo dares but for everything in life. Thats just the way I am.
So I told her sure, WTH, how bad can it be....well, it's this bad. But really, I think it's pretty damn funny, and if you can't laugh at yourself, then you shouldn't laugh at all :-) And ya know what, for a 41 year old, those are some sweet abs....HA!!
So if you are rocking some sweet abs and you really want to show them off please contact Housework Is Evil and I am sure she will hook you up ;-)
Happy Low Key Lame Ass Thursday!
So my flights were cancelled due to a strike. So i wont be going on vacation this summer. This will make 2 years since i've seen my dad and asia hasn't seen him at all. I had so many plans for this trip and they all went down the toilet. So right now i'm just tryin to make the best of the fact that i am still getting up and going to work, because many people weren't even afforded that privilege this morning.
Also i'm sick of seeing my face so i will go a week without any face shots!
I hear a sound above
A sound above my head
The distant sound of thunder
Booming out on the moor
Blackbirds they flew ahead
Into the cooling towers
I packed my bags fast
Thinking of one of those hours
With you
Waiting for you
My god
It takes an ocean of trust
In the Kingdom of Rust
Doves-Kingdom of trust
Explored
ha ha ha the jokes on me
I feel jealous and I feel mean
is she so nice that it makes up for her face there's no way
do you have to keep your eyes closed
do you have to keep the lights down low
oh I bet you wish you had a blindfold can't you see
you're leaving me for an ugly girl
Ugly Girl - Fleming & John
this might be a little shallow of me. but I told donnie that if he had to leave me or cheat on me, PLEASE let it be a prettier girl than me. then I wouldnt feel so bad.
I think all girls think this way. I think most guys do the same? feel free to discuss.
anyways. I am totally digging this rotating thing. thanks Anna thanks Ashley!

poor little girl had to grow up quick
she ain't a child no more
her heart's still soft, but her skin got thick
she ain't a child no more
- Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, She Ain't a Child No More
It's funny the way growth works. Usually you don't realize when it's happening. But sometimes when you stop to take stock of your life, you realize just how far you've come. I didn't choose this growth, but I'm happy for it.
Tomorrow I get to spend the day with one of my best friends and have some quality girl time. I can't wait. There's no substitute to hanging out with her. ♥

All I can do when I hear this song is dance and move my head side to side when it goes:

LOVE this song! But I don't like my teeth here. With or w/o the processing, bokeh teeth just didn't work today. :P
For Musically Challenged
This could almost meet three of the themes for Flickr for Fun Scavenge challenge, those being "me", "music" and "moving". Another instrument I'm sentimental about - it's the piano I learnt to play on and belonged to my mum. She gave it to me when she bought a baby grand.
This one's too late for the 52 Weeks of Pix 2013: "Anything music" competition too, but I'll put it in the pool anyway....
This construciton 'worker' looked a little too relaxed if you ask me... I guess like his sign reads, he was taking things SLOW!
