Mothers Day 1955 found us in Denver where Dad's mom, Nana, lived.
We went to the legendary Elitch Gardens, a time-honored amusement park. Dad knew it was a great place to take moms and kids because there were flowers for the moms and rides for the kids.
Here we see the family nicely posed for a Mother's day portrait. Problem is, two-year olds, four-year olds, and camera shy Nanas tend to turn away at the last second and you only find out after the film is developed.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY, EVERYONE!!
Always born blind, hairless and pink, and nursed in the warm, dark corners. The mother often gathers straw or bits of foam to make a cosy layer for her babies.

Originally, this was meant to be a whole series but due to my limited time in China, I didn't manage to shoot it. I hope I can finish it next time I go there.

With a badge that carried the slogan - Americas First Car, the Haynes Automobile Company can trace its car making history back to 1898 when the company, formerly known as Haynes-Apperson company was established in Kokomo, Indiana, by brothers Edgar Apperson, Elmer Apperson and Elwood Haynes. Elwood Haynes was a talented metallurgist who invented a very special stainless steel alloy called Stellite which is still used to this day on the space shuttle to this day, he approached the Apperson Brothers to build his first car. The cars were powered by 5 HP engines while the heavy parts were made of aluminium alloy.
In 1905 the Apperson brothers left the company to form Apperson Brothers Automobile Company. Elwood Haynes remained renaming the old company simply the Haynes Automobile Co. from 1914,
Haynes offered a Light Six at $1485. Their ads boasted that it was, - The result of 22 years successful experience in building motor Haynes also proclaimed it Americas greatest light six, and that it will travel 22 to 25 miles on one gallon of gas and has more than 1 horsepower to every 55 pounds of weight.
For 1916 Haynes introduced the twelve cylinder Light Twelve, sold alongside a refined Light Six in the guise of Models 36 and 37
1923 saw the introduction of the 57, with a 121 inch wheelbase in five-seat four-door sedan, three-seat coupelet, and two-seat roadster advertised as being complete with front and rear bumpers, six disc (as opposed to wire) wheels, wind wings, sun visors, artistically fashioned individual steps (for the running boards), and individual fenders
But the end was in sight, Haynes Automobiles was declared bankrupt in 1924 and went out of business in 1925.
Haynes was a relatively expensive make, film star Cleo Madison drove a Haynes Light Six as did composer Louis F. Gottschalk .
In 1915 a Haynes 50-60 Model Y Touring Car achieved notoriety when it was featured in what has been called the worlds oldest known pornographic film - A Free Ride

Two of UPs classy SD40N rebuilds bring the Y-SPMP Transfer over the Robert St lift bridge and towards East Mpls.
Minutes after this was taken, the second unit had issues. The transfer had to run over to the Belt Yard and get a third SD40N so they could make the grade and trip to East Mpls.
Rodeo Drive is a two-mile long street, primarily in Beverly Hills, California. Its northern terminus is its intersection with Sunset Boulevard and its southern is its intersection with Beverwil Drive in the city of Los Angeles. The name is most commonly used metonymically to refer to a three block stretch of the street north of Wilshire Boulevard and south of Little Santa Monica Boulevard, which is known for its luxury-goods stores. The larger business district surrounding Rodeo, known as the "Golden Triangle," which extends from Wilshire Boulevard to Santa Monica Boulevard, is both a shopping district and a major tourist attraction.
In 1967 Fred Hayman, "the father of Rodeo Drive," opened Giorgio Beverly Hills, the street's first high-end boutique. In 1968 Aldo Gucci opened a store on Rodeo, which catalyzed the process by which the street took on its present form. Van Cleef & Arpels opened in 1969, followed by a Vidal Sassoon salon in 1970.
In 1976, Bijan Pakzad opened a showroom on Rodeo, which helped to solidify "Rodeo Drive's reputation as a luxury shopping destination." Pakzad touted his Rodeo Drive location as "the most expensive in the world," but, as Women's Wear Daily notes in relation to the claim, "he was known for hyperbole." By 1978 the Beverly Hills Chamber of Commerce was boasting that Rodeo Drive was "the essence of the best of all the shopping centers of the world" and by 1980 the city of Beverly Hills estimated that the Rodeo Drive shopping district accounted for as much as 25% of its sales tax revenues. The building at 332 N. Rodeo was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.

I'm drunk. I still like this. I'm not sure if this is a good or bad way to start my portraits off.
My friend Laura at work gave me a new nose ring for my birthday. : ] it's a mushroom!
We saw loads of butterflies on our holiday in Greece, some (like this) we've never seen before.
More shots below - the last isn't a great shot but the only one that shows the inside of its wings.
The Goodyear blimp Wingfoot Two has landed at its base in Suffield Township, Ohio, and the ground crew is working to secure it. The blimp has just landed after a trip from Columbus, Ohio, where it had helped cover an Ohio State football game the night before. Note the duck paddling past in Wingfoot Lake and leaving a trail in its wake.
A shot I did for www.ThreeSixDownhill.com.

Sometimes I wish, that people around me could be a lot of things, but overall, there's one thing that I apreciate, honesty... there are a lot of two faced people out there and just I feel sad for them for not being brave enough to say things in my face... or anybody else's face... just be brave enough, face it and be honest... with me is that way or the highway...

Miel and I decided to go on for a ride on the streetcar, so we packed up her wooden toy streetcar and headed to the Castro terminus of the F Market line.
When we arrived PCC streetcar No. 1050 — the very same car upon which her toy is based — was waiting to give us a ride.
So fun! It's not every day a kid gets to see her toys come to life.

I chose to open up the lens (f2, note the slight 'shuriken' bokeh to the left of the bottles) rather than get everything in focus. I think it would require a lot of restraint on my part to be a product shooter.
