Check out the history of the rocking chair at www.designboom.com/rockingmanifesto.html
After our camping trip to Payson Lakes, we stopped for breakfast at the Cracker Barrel store and restaurant in Springville, Utah. Outside the store there is a porch filled with rocking chairs for sale and you are welcome to sit and rock as you wait for a table. This shot shows Joshua with his cousin's Clara and Ben rocking away. I was lucky enough to catch them all at slightly different angles. First time at the Cracker Barrel. Good food and fun chairs.

I put a red 25 filter over my lens today. Restyle with "Black and Cornsilk Grey", normal mode blending at 70%, gives tones reminiscent of a 19th century print.
Why a filter?
This filter reduces noise in black areas. This one was processed at +2.0 eV and the ceiling looks grainy, rather than speckled.
and her mother was so grateful.

Day 26 of 2010
I had so much fun doing my pictures today. I liked this one but have more that I will have to post.
I was privileged to take pictures of this adorable little girl today and I couldn't resist using her as my 365 for today! She's only one, but she's got the personality of an adult:)
With the TV signal still being jammed in his quarters, the lights stuck on dim and his furniture missing, all thanks to one of Fett's payback pranks, Stormtrooper Bruce is thankful he’s able to enjoy a few simple pleasures in the secret room he discovered hidden behind his quarters.
With no cable signal to watch TV, the guys have cancelled movie night, refusing to watch movies on his teeny tiny laptop. And although he’ll never admit it, he totally agrees with them.
So until Fett returns to the ship, it's coffee made the old fashioned way, re-reading some classics from the DS library, laptop games, and sleeping on the floor. All in all, it could be worse.

Now who wouldn't prefer to be gently rocked side to side instead of forward and backward when trying to go about your business? | Shot on Kodak Tmax 400 Professional BW film, Canon A2E, 2000; scanned in 2017 on Nikon CoolScan 4000.
My brother Mark was very generous for my b-day this year (as he always is!), and gave me, among other things, an Amazon g.c. I picked up a Lomo Fisheye camera, a toy that I have had in my Amazon cart for a long time. Anyway, I finally received it (shipped from Adorama), and ran a test in an attempt, of course, to become acquainted with my strange and wonderful new friend -- this is in fact my second test roll, one that I shot rather quickly.
I always see these red rocking chairs in town, and stopped to grab this, the last shot of the roll..
Again, I really appreciate it, Mark... and thank you for stopping by. CHEERS. ^_^
My third attempt at cross-processing, and this, like the one previous, is rather noisy/grainy. I think that I, quite simply, get the results that I'm looking for using Elite Chrome 100 -- this is 200.
In any case, thank you for taking a look. ^_^
BTW, here is another view.
12/52: Favorite things
This is my favorite corner of my room. I don't spend a lot of time at home, so when I'm there, I try and spend about as much of my time as possible sitting in my rocking chair and knitting (I'm a grandma, I know...). This is the best time of year for it because the tree has no leaves, so my room gets full sun from about noon until the sun goes down.
I've developed a slight obsession with knitting, since it's a very portable thing to take on tour. It's also really cool to collect yarn from around the world. The project I'm currently working on is a lace shawl made from an alpaca/silk blend I bought in Utah. I recently finished the sweater I'm wearing in the photo (made with yarn I bought in New York), and the socks (which I was wearing by coincidence!) are the first pair I ever made, and made of wool from Austria.
And on Sunday, I'll be off to collect some yarn from Chile! :)
Who would guess that a park near the U.S. Capitol is equipped with several comfortable wooden rocking chairs? Bartholdi Park, near the U.S. Botanical Garden, is a relaxing oasis on busy Capitol Hill.
BIG This is a re-edit of an image i took a year and a half ago but i love it. It somehow got lost in my stream or strangely was erased...as did my original file in my computer.
THis was a candid. I was painting my house during construction, the music was cranked up on the stereo....she was rocking back and forth and doing all kinds of crazy moves in the chair. I had my camera close and snapped her on the zoom lens from about 30 feet away as she looked over at me.
One of my all-time favorites of her. She was barely 4 here at the time.

"I go out to work on Monday morning
Tuesday I go off to honeymoon
I'll be back again before it's time for sunny-down,
I'll be lazing on a Sunday afternoon
Bicycling on every Wednesday evening
Thursday I go waltzing to the zoo
I come from London Town, I'm just an ordinary guy
Fridays I go painting in the louvre
I'm bound to be proposing on a Saturday night
(There he goes again)
I'll be lazing on a Sunday
Lazing on a Sunday
Lazing on a Sunday afternoon" - "Lazing on a sunday afternoon", Queen

Dylan Thomas - 1914-1953
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
