Having a play about with water droplets on a CD, positioned the droplets so they were lit and held multilight above which gives the dotted rainbow effect

Here is a photograph (not graphically designed but an actual photograph of an object), that brings out from my mind my own visual depiction of the Butterfly Effect.

I did some thrift shop browsing Friday afternoon and came away with three items--two skirts and a blouse. Here's one of the skirts--a royal blue pencil skirt--and the blouse--a deep pink top with gold buttons. Oddly, it has a closed bottom, almost like a sweater. The skirt is very tight; even with the corset I could just barely get it on (the label is very faded, but it might actually be only a 10!). The result is nearly a hobble skirt effect.
The accessories are a pink scarf, gold jewelry, pink hose and poppy-pink patent pumps. (Maybe I should pick pickled peppers in those?)
Flowers given to me by a friend yesterday. Trying the technique of scanning images directly onto a flatbed scanner. Love the effect. But is it photography, that's the question?

Orton Effect: I like the original just fine. This just gives a different perspective of the little guy, softer, yet bolder. The original was nature, this is a little more artistic.

What? You think some Flickr members have too much free time on their hands? Naaaah...
When I saw the Transparent Screens pool I couldn't resist. Here's what you do: 1) Place your camera on a tripod, 2) Remove the monitor (or close your laptop) and snap a picture, 3) Place the monitor (or open the laptop) and take another picture, 4) Open in Photoshop and select the screen area from the second picture, 5) Transfer the selection to the first picture, cut, create a new image, and distort it to make the trapezoidal selection rectangular, 6) Save the resulting image and use it as a Windows wallpaper, 7) Take the picture again taking care to align the screen image with the background (should match if you haven't moved the monitor nor the camera).
Next time I'll avoid using flash, and try to set up a multi-monitor system and maybe even throw in some paper printouts. A cool effect would be to fix focus on the screen so the background is blurry, and then put that blurry background as a wallpaper, so it contrasts with the perfectly focused screen icons (and maybe the Vista sidebar)...
...shouldn't I be working or something?

Dec. 26, 2006- The Garden of the new De Young Museum* in San Francisco, shot from the copper tower on a rainy tuesday: www.mccullagh.org/db9/1ds-4/de-young-museum.jpg
It is exciting to be in the new De Young; makes you feel proud to be a San Franciscan and a Californian. The last times I felt this way was when the UC Berkeley Art Museum** opened, and- again- when the Oakland Museum*** opened.
One of the fine ideas of this De Young complex is that- though you can pay, as usual, to see the exhibits- there is free access to alot of the building- including views from the tower. This is my idea of a 'San Francisco value'.

** The UC Berkeley Art Museum (1968) which includes the Pacific Film Archive, which is where I saw the short film, "La Jetee", which inspired the American film, "12 Monkeys".
The grey concrete could have been cold, but I think it works. This little photo shows a cantilevered balcony:

I was involved in the opening ceremonies of the Museum. Part of it was a silly saloon drama set up by painters, Bill Wiley, Bob Hudson and friends. We wore cowboy suits and I sang "The Impossible Dream".

*** The Oakland Museum of California (1971) stands out for its architectural concept: they created three levels like this:
OOOO
OOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Because the lower levels are longer than the upper, you can have gardens on the exposed roof areas. You can walk from the second floor museum rooms out to a roof garden built on the first floor. On the third floor, you can walk out onto the roof garden above the second floor. This photo gives some idea:

This roof garden idea from 1971 has been applied in recent years in Manhatten to counter the 'heat island' effect. www.epa.gov/heatislands/
The diagram of Os, above, leaves out what may have inspired the levels idea: the museum does not rest on flat ground as shown; it is built on a hill that rises to the left.
This diagram is more accurate:

Ann, Marco, Pete and I went here often when we lived in Berkeley. The space was as important to us as the exhibits.
[ don- the 'San Francisco value'- reference will soon lose currency. ( it refers to the denounciation of Nancy Pelosi during the 2006 election campaign. )
- the sentence originally read, ..."This open-handed poliicy- though 'good for business'- is rarely seen. " go back to that after a while. ]

Five more photos taken on 2 July 2024, at the Peony Farm.
25 July 2024: cooler today (high of 22C), but wildfire smoke continues. Air quality is at Very High Risk, so I will again be staying home.
Jasper: "it was said crews will be fighting the fire for weeks before it's under control, and even longer before it will be extinguished."

24 July 2024: wildfires are burning in Alberta. There is also an Alberta Emergency Alert today : "This is an Alberta Emergency Alert. Environment Canada has issued a tornado watch alert. This alert is in effect for all communities between Wetaskiwin and Calgary, that are west of Veteran's Memorial Highway 36 and east of the foothills."
24 July 2024, Jasper: "The largest fire, referred to as the south wildfire, is estimated to be among the largest in Jasper National Park’s history at 10,800 hectares in size and as of 6:40 p.m. Wednesday had reached the town, according to a Parks Canada post on social media." From Edmonton Journal. So sad! Maligne Lodge has been completely burned.
23 July 2024: 33°C (feels like 36°C). Intense heat and wildfire smoke pose health risk. So hot inside without any air-conditioning!
22 July 2024: "Temperatures will continue to break records in Alberta this week, smoky skies linger. Temperature is 31°C (feels like 34°C)." The Weather Network.
In the morning, on 2July 2024, my daughter and I made our first ever visit to the Parkland Peony Farm. People had to buy tickets in order to be able access the glorious display of 850 varieties of Peony. I only heard about this place a year ago, when a friend posted photos, and it was too late to get tickets. So, this year, I was determined to take my daughter there. I was concerned about how much walking there could be. As it turned out, I was unable to see the furthest rows of these amazing blooms, but so thankful that I had at least seen many of the flowers. Too much pain, as well as the heat, and I just had to give up. 'Walking' was of course just a very slow stroll, taking photos. Fresh air and a teeny bit of exercise no doubt did me good, though I felt absolutely tired out by the end.
Right at the start of our visit, arriving a bit early, we looked near the parking area, finding a Black Henbane plant that already had seedpods. I love these pods, though I know it is an invasive species.
Once inside the farm grounds, we heard and saw a KIlldeer. This behaviour told us that there had to be a nest somewhere. We saw both adults in among the Peonies, so my eyes kept checking the soil pathways for any sign. Maybe instead of a nest, they now had young ones to protect. I also saw a rabbit running through the bushes, too fast for me to get a photo.
After leaving the Farm, we called in briefly at the Saskatoon Farm. So many people there, enjoying themselves. My daughter needed to get home and also the weather forecast was for a storm and we wanted to avoid that. Instead, we watched the heavy rain and hail - thankfully, ony small hail! - about five hours later, at home. In no time at all, everywhere turned white. So glad I wasn't driving in such awful weather!

Wife had a Transderm Scop Motion sickness patch on and this is a really weird and really rare side effect. Her left eye is completely dialated while her right eye is just the opposite
Ground effect is the increased lift and decreased drag that wings generate when they are close to a fixed surface (the water in this case). This brown pelican at Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve drags its tips in the water as it skims the surface of the water effortlessly.
A more than rewarding trip as we spent several hours volunteering to pick up trash along the shoreline with friends, Jan and Frank.
