Macro Mondays -- Symmetry
I've been taking macros of our "bleeding heart" plants, as the flowers develop. Here are a few of my shots.
The future, as everyone knows
Is where we're gonna be spending the rest of our life
Who said the future is closed
Never saw the promise in her eyes… liberty
And I’m running my mouth off
Running my mouth off
It's not poetry
And I’m running my mouth off again
Picture - heaven is closed
All the classroom prophets gone to ground
Schoolgirl says everyone knows
Love is a verb and not a noun
Or so it seems
It has me running my mouth off
Running my mouth off
It’s not poetry
But I’m running my mouth off again
One life at a time
Picture - heaven is closed
All the classroom prophets gone to ground
Schoolgirl says everyone knows
Love is a verb and not a noun
Or so it seems
It has me running my mouth off
Running my mouth off
It’s not poetry
But I’m running my mouth off again
Don't sleep, don't even think about it
No need, maybe a little bit
Still dream, About wakin' up free
As we can be
Forget whatever doesn't fit
Regret, regret none of it
Don't bet on gettin' rid of me
Yours eternally
What you can’t kill can't die
America will rise
Against the people of the lie
I love you more
Than hate loves war
I love you more
Than hate loves war
(War, war)
P.S. What if every human’s pain were visible in the form of red blood? What if every person bleeding on the inside was bleeding on the outside? What if we were drowning, walking in each other’s blood? Would we understand each other better and the meaning of agony better?
Not trying to turn a beautiful evening in NYC into bloody imagery, especially with ESB lights for the women's Olympics team… just trying to say that this world is a beautiful place, and it would be even more beautiful if people, instead of hating, put more effort into loving.
People, people, people, you know what it means to be left alone ...
No letter today, not even a call on my telephone ...
Elmore James, 1961

I created the heart using an LED flashlight and a 30 second shutter speed. The red portion comes from the light illuminating the blood in my fingers.
I bought a new lens for astro-photography but it has been cloudy so I took it for a test drive in the garden
You can paint as much as you like on a CF7, but it naturally has Santa Fe paint underneath. The ATSF blue and gold paint this unit wore as ATSF 2444 is bleeding through the Reading and Northern paint layer as Red River Valley & Western 1504.
This locomotive has the previous history prior to ownership by RRVW. From The Diesel Shop:

Beautiful Bleeding Hearts in the rain at the New York Botanical Garden (NYBG).
Lamprocapnos spectabilis (bleeding heart or Asian bleeding-heart) is a species of flowering plant in the poppy family Papaveraceae, native to Siberia, northern China, Korea and Japan. It is the sole species in the monotypic genus Lamprocapnos.
It is valued in gardens and in floristry for its heart-shaped pink and white flowers, borne in spring. Other common names include "lyre flower" and "lady-in-a-bath".
