A tiny Splash Mountain is enjoyed by tiny guests zipping down a tiny flume in a tiny log. It's amazing that something so tiny eventually gave way to something that made such a big splash with Disneyland guests.
It is my junior year, 1978, when disco and Rocky movies are the cultural rage. We are in an unusual sociology class at Brandeis, something Morrie calls "Group Process." Each week we study the ways in which the students in the group interact with one another, how they respond to anger, jealousy, attention. We are human lab rats. More often than not, someone ends up crying. I refer to it as the "touchy-feely" course. Morrie says I should be more open-minded.
On this day, Morrie says he has an exercise for us to try. We are to stand, facing away from our classmates, and fall backward, relying on another student to catch us. Most of us are uncomfortable with this, and we cannot let go for more than a few inches before stopping ourselves. We laugh in embarrassment.
Finally, one student, a thin, quiet, dark-haired girl whom I notice almost always wears bulky white fisherman sweaters, crosses her arms over her chest, closes her eyes, leans back, and does not flinch, like one of those Lipton tea commercials where the model splashes into the pool.
For a moment, I am sure she is going to thump on the floor. At the last instant, her assigned partner grabs her head and shoulders and yanks her up harshly.
"Whoa!" several students yell. Some clap. Morrie finally smiles.
"You see," he says to the girl, "you closed your eyes. That was the difference.
Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too--even when you're in the dark. Even when you're falling."

A gentle Mediterranean wave splashes against the rocks at Capo Comino in Sardinia. Capo Comino is a beautiful spot with plenty of parking and a quaint Café where you can have something to drink and soak up the natural beauty of sea, beach and rocks, with the small island, Isola Rossa, in the background to right.
One of those moments when the Kiama Blowhole really lives up to its name.

Hace tiempo vi este tipo de fotografías por la red, y gracias a Miel y limón hoy me animé a hacerla....... no está tan enfocada como me gustaría pero.... me ha gustado el "splash"
As I said, I tried again and I think I did a much much better job :D
The strange spectrum at the bottom is rather unsightly..
splashing , today was one of Kiki's best days in the pool, she did new independent moves. I love this one.
I was inspired by the recent coffee splash post on the flickr blog to experiment with some splash pictures
Two Suzuki Splash model parked next to each other. The Splash was built in Europe from 2008 until 2014. There was also a badge-engineerd version by Opel, the Agila. After this model the cooperation between Suzuki and General Motors ended.
Rainy, dreary day here in the Midwest, but on a positive note, we will be headed out west to our other "home" in another four weeks.
Playing around with my PS Elements 7; got it for Christmas and haven't used it much. Thought it might be time to experiment a little.......shot from last summer when we visited Colorado & New Mexico - converted to b&w with a little splash of color.
