Saw this beautify on the way to lunch yesterday. I can always count on seeing something interesting at this one garage in the Northwest heights of Albuquerque.
Sliding Rock is a popular spot in the Pisgah National Forest. Though this picture, captured in the cold of fall. is devoid of people, in warmer months the fall serves as a natural waterslide, and visitors line up to travel the 60 or so feet into the pool below.
The outside of the sculpture is actually mirrored, and in its current location, I find the many reflections distracting from the visual experience inside the box, so. . . sliders to the rescue.

This snowy egret was disturbed by a few neayby birds flown away, it slided on the water for a couple of seconds.
"The slide rule is a mechanical analog computer. The slide rule is used primarily for multiplication and division, and also for functions such as roots, logarithms and trigonometry, but is not normally used for addition or subtraction."

This was my father's when he was a young man, younger than what I am now. He's a mechanical engineer and I found this back home in the Philippines when we came home back in March. My brother has his Ping Pong paddle that is older than both of us and I wanted something as old if not older. So here's his slide rule...and I don't know how to use it...YET. Ha!

This is one of the very oldest "transparencies" in my collection. It was actually shot way back in 1952 by my Dad. This is his 1951 Studebaker Commander "Starlight" Coupe. It featured an unconventional "bullet-nose" design and Studebaker's "glass all-around" panoramic rear view windows. Mom, Dad and I moved to Los Angeles from St. Louis in late 1950. We drove to L.A. in this Studebaker. Two years later my grandfather, Mom's father, became severely ill and she wanted to be with him at that time. So we drove back to St. Louis from L.A. in this Studebaker. This shot was taken after we returned, and you can still see the California license plate on the front bumper. For a variety of reasons we ended up staying in St. Louis after that. This slide had some strong "staining" and the color had faded quite a bit. So I thought it was a good candidate for some creative effects. The car color was yellow and the wheels were a dark red shade. I was so young I really don't remember this car at all. But I know for sure that I did go for a "ride" in it from St. Louis to Los Angeles and back so many years ago. . .
