“It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you've got it, you want—oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!”
Mark Twain
"Sea-Fever"
I must down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a grey dawn breaking.
I must down to the seas again, for the call of the running tide
Is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied;
And all I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume, and the sea-gulls crying.
I must down to the seas again, to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way where the wind's like a whetted knife;
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover
And quiet sleep and a sweet dream when the long trick's over.
By John Masefield (1878-1967).

Night Fever
The Bee Gees
Here I am,
Prayin for this moment to last,
Livin on the music so fine,
Borne on the wind,
Makin it mine.
Night fever, night fever.
We know how to do it.
Gimme that night fever, night fever.
We know how to show it.
Wasn't going to go out tonight, as the sky was very heavy and overcast. Then quite suddenly, a break came and some colour started to come through. I grabbed my gear and 1 minute later was on the beach facing north. A dog wanting me to play ball with it was a funny distraction, and I had a few throws with him inbetween shots. Used the B&W 10 stopper to get this one. Hope you like "Night Fever". Cheers, Mike
Poor Harriet has putrid fever and has been quite sickly for several days.
Blythe a Day - fever - 9/27/24
Putrid fever comes up in lots of books of Jane Austen's time. It is typhus.
"The putrid fever, medically known as typhus, was preavalent in the early life of Jane Austen as there was a Putrid Fever epidemic August of 1783. This disease was brought in by troops incoming from their service in Gibraltar returning and quartering in Southampton. This illness was of high mortality among elder people and historically occured during times of war and famine. The transmission of this disease froms was primarily through human infestations and pests such as lice, ticks, mites, and rat fleas. Symptoms of this illness were constant headaches, high temperature, pink spotting, that rapidly darken all throughout the body excluding the soles of the feet, palms and face. Recovery could be spontaneous or prove to be fatal. "

Feed a fever, starve a cold? One of those old chestnuts of folklore that I never could remember. No matter how it really goes, in my mind it sounds delightful to feed a fever. It's just a wonderful metaphor for how bad things sometimes escalate. Not really looking for mayhem in my own life but it does play well with the visual construct of my photostream. I like for there always to be a degree of discomfort looking at these photos. Anyway back to the old adage, I woke up the other morning feeling a bit under the weather. Not quite as energetic as usual and a bit foggy-headed (more so than usual). This soon morphed into a sore throat and my voice dropped a couple of octaves. Unquestionably a common cold developing, something I haven't experienced in years. How could this happen I wondered? I retraced my steps over the past few days and soon settled on a community Easter egg hunt that I had photographed Saturday morning. No idea if that was the source but I have to pin the blame on something. And being in a large roomful of kids seems like a safe bet for my disease vector. "Rotten kids" I growled last evening in my new-found radio announcer voice. Dinner last night tasted as if I was eating prop food from a movie set. Virtually tasteless. But I kept at my home remedies, gargling with salt water and sucking zinc lozenges, accompanied by an occasional spray of Zicam. Woke up today feeling nearly new again. Sure hoping I dodged the bullet here. Seems too good to be true but I've focused the last several years on clean living and working out. So hopefully I'm good for another five or six years. Time will tell.
The subject photo has nothing whatsoever to do with any of this, but that's how it goes sometimes. The connection is sometime tenuous or even nonexistent. I captured this scene in the local cemetery right at sunset. I love being here and ex-eriecning this time of day. A place that's all too familiar by day is transformed into a world dark silhouettes and rich sky tones. In these minutes it's as if I'm someplace else as the surroundings become beautiful yet completely unrecognizable. Moments like this make me value my good health all the more and propel me on explorations like this. I'm encouraged to waste not a moment of precious life.

I'd toss this up there with one of the most unique skies you'd ever see in Arizona. A gorgeous sunset, wispy, high cirrus...and then some dark, menacing storm clouds hanging low over the city, a tiny bit of sprinkling rain hitting our heads.
This is another installment of Movie Title Wednesday, one that had quite a few options to choose from. But believe it or not, Field of Dreams and The Sandlot have already been used since I started this thing back in September! There are a ton of great baseball movies, but the one I choose is a flick I really enjoyed.
Fever Pitch stars Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore. Barrymore...I've loved her since E.T. I always liked Fallon from his days on SNL, but this movie kind of raised him up a bit more for me. And now he hosts his own late show and it's friggin' hilarious.
The film itself was just a fun one. Yeah, it's kind of your standard romantic comedy, but it has something unique about it that not everyone probably knows. The plot revolves around the Boston Red Sox of course and Fallon's character's infatuation with them. When they started filming the movie, they had no idea the Red Sox would win the World Series that year. In fact, the original end of the movie was written with them losing yet again.
But they won. They broke the curse. So the plot changed too...hurriedly re-written after Boston won Game 7. And it made for an awesome ending. When Fallon and Barrymore are seen celebrating on the field at the end of the movie, they were actually at Game 4 when Boston beat St. Louis and supposedly you could see some of the filming live on the Fox broadcast. When I watch the movie, it almost has a kind of historic feel to it now because it revolved around this real-world event.
I'd definitely put it up there with The Sandlot and Field of Dreams as my favorite baseball movies, although I did love The Rookie too.
About the picture above. I think photographers can honestly say that luck can be a huge factor when composing certain scenes. I mean, here I am running around the rooftop of this parking garage firing away at everything because the sky was simply amazing...and after being there 25 minutes, I stumble across the spot above and have roughly 30 seconds to setup and snap the brackets before the sun disappeared from its absolutely perfect position.
Which is what I dig. When out stormchasing or racing to find a great spot for a sunset, sometimes a little luck comes in handy.
For the out-of-state-ers, this is Chase Field, home of the Diamondbacks looking east along Jefferson Street in downtown Phoenix. This was shot about 10 minutes or so before the other one I've posted from this parking garage called Seventh Heaven.

A stitch of 6 shots.
"The VAG is located in the former main courthouse for Vancouver. The original 15,300 sq metre neoclassical building was designed by Francis Rattenbury after winning a design competition in 1905. Rattenbury also designed the British Columbia Parliament Buildings and the Empress Hotel in Victoria. The design includes ionic columns, a central dome, formal porticos, and ornate stonework. The building was constructed using marble imported from Alaska, Tennessee, and Vermont. The new building was constructed in 1906 and replaced the previous courthouse located at Victory Square. At the time, the building contained 18 courtrooms."

"Toll Fever" as night falls at Marianhill Toll Plaza on the outskirts of Durban. One of the toll officials walks closer, looks at my "speed camera" on legs and from a distance says "not allowed". I reply "am I not allowed to speed trap here?" (buying some time for the shots to finish). He says "not so close to the toll gate". I leave; mission accomplished.

The vegetation on the Ubizane reserve was dominated by various types of what are loosely termed acacias. This one - Vachellia xanthophloea, formerly known as Acacia xanthophloea - is one of the largest and easiest to recognise because of its distinctive bark.
It acquired its common name of Fever tree because it thrives in swampy areas where malaria was a scourge and the pioneers thought that it was the trees that inflicted the disease upon those who passed near to it.

Never know how much I love you, you never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me, I get a feeling that I just can't bear
You give me fever, when you kiss me, fever when you hold me tight
Fever in the morning, fever all through the night.
