▶ "Baseball says so much about who we are. It is a way to bind ourselves together emotionally. It is the game we play, and the game most emulated by those interested in our culture."

— John Dreyfuss (placard in front of sculpture)

 

***************

▶ "John Dreyfuss employs classical tools and techniques to create works in bronze, steel, iron, and, more recently, composite materials used in the aerospace industry. His work is grounded in the study of animal and architectural forms, with an emphasis on the refinement and adaptation of three-dimensional structures over time and space. His training in both architecture and sculpture found a poetic fusion in the essential duality of his work, where abstracted lines blend seamlessly with the lifelike shapes and textures intrinsic to sculptural realism. Dreyfuss studied at the University of Pennsylvania School of Architecture, Philadelphia, and the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, Cambridge, Massachusetts. He has exhibited extensively in the United States and abroad."

What is this...that stands before me?

Figure in black...which points at me...

Turn round quick...and start to run...

Find out I'm...the chosen one!

 

"Clancy, I should be the one saying that."

 

I asked you to and you declined.

 

"No, you asked me to sing it like the Black Sabbath

song and I declined."

 

You're not much of a Halloween person, are you?

 

"Hey, I'm a great Halloweener."

 

More like a great Halloweiner. And speaking of weiners,

my diet is finished, right?

 

"Yes. You've lost five pounds sinse April 1 and look

fine to me. The vet said I should see an hourglass

shape when I look at you from above, and if I'm not

seeing an hourglass shape, I'm at least seeing a

3/4hourglass shape, good enough for me. So, yes,

when we get home you can have a weiner."

 

Really? I take it back, Dad, you're a Hallowinner!

 

(Happy Halloween and stay safe, from Count Clancy, B-Rat and Ding-Bat!) (And me!)

Bank of windows at the old factory in Troy, N.H., which is undergoing a slow transformation to apartments. Neat how there's a single stripe of rust on each sill from the center of the window frame.

"Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep

Dreaming about the things that we could be

But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard

Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"

Yeah, we'll be counting stars…"

Ad occhio nudo, in una notte perfetta, si possono contare circa 5000 stelle...

 

ad occhi chiusi, si riescono a vedere i confini ultimi della nostra Galassia.

Bank Holiday cottage in Llangadfan, Wales.

The sparrow gang picking up seeds spilled on the ground. I count about 40 and there are probably at least 20 more in the bushes...

There are three great white sharks in this shot, along with two yellowfin tuna, and a yellowtail amberjack. Can you spot them all?

No moon, no haze, no clouds – perfect conditions to go out and watch the stars.

I've been wanting to get this shot for ages.

This was Gibsy's first encouter with sheep. We stayed in a cottage in the Brecon Beacons in Wales and there were sheep and horses in the field next door. He was around four months old and totally fascinated. Happy Fenced Friday everyone!

Theme: Counting on Hearts - Icon for Hire

I'm counting on hearts like yours

to keep me burning,

to keep me up

'til two in the morning.

You be bright

when I'm starting to rust,

you be 'Why?'

behind the 'What?'

 

Indeed, some things are not as they seem. Us cats on the 'walks, you could say we are holding onto yesterday's dreams. But you know what? Some things are very much worth fighting for. The life of the cats ruling the rooftops and catwalks, that was something we took to the grave with us. Now, only embers remain cycled through the dust of the ages. Yet, if you listen closely, you may hear the subtle purring flutter through the night sky. Maybe the hairs on the back of your neck may raise, as if indicating that some predator is toying with you as their prey. That shiver you feel on the rooftop during the night, can you be certain that it is merely a subtle cool breeze, or could there be something calling out from nights of the depths of the past to remind you that you were not always safe to be up here? Maybe you still are not, and some ghost during the twilight stalks you and seeks to give you a fright, and remind you of those cats who used to live and fight for their right to rule the rooftops they once called home.

 

But I will never let go,

never let up my hold,

'cause I know

once you feel it

you can't unfeel it.

once you dream it

you can't undream it.

The water released through the Devghar Dam's spillway and a small hillock of the excavation debris with few stars in the sky. Wasn't a perfect frame though.

I heard the water whispering "Welcome to the world of wide angles." :-)

Daily Dog Challenge: In A Row

Weekly Themes: Senses - Senseless - This scene doesn't really make any sense so I guess it's senseless :)

I came here to photograph hadrians wall ( a couple of metres over brow) when these sheep popped into view.

One thing I look forward to every year is the return of the Damselflies, I just love them. They have such character, great colours and are one insect that have that anthropomorphic quality. You can really get eye contact with these guys and a variety of expressions. I really must try to find some different species this year as well. Only 3.5 Months or so to wait LOL ;o)

 

This was an Ischnura elegans from July last Summer, I took this using my MP-E at about x2-x3 mag using a diffused flash. It was a 15 image focus stack using an F/7.1 aperture, ISO 320 and a 1/160 shutter speed.

 

Hope everyone has had a great weekend :o)

Toy abacus seen in Pasadena, California

Each year since I began a garden using native plants to attract pollinating insects, they have become more and more scare. This space used to be a buzzing habitat; I even noticed that the Japanese Beetles, which I despise, were far and few to be seen this year.

"One.....two.....THREE! Yay!!! Everybody clap!

 

Oh wait....I can't."

 

In B&W.

Yes, this is a mainline train with nothing but SD40-2s, just what decade are we in?

 

Too bad 1687 fell victim to the primer door.
