What a fitting name for a sailboat. I looked up the full definition: A piece of music sung or played in the open air, typically by a man at night under the window of his lover. I really loved the time I spent on my sailboat. I don't have one anymore but I think about it often.

"An antique is anything old with class."

 

John Bartlett

 

When I found this quotation, my first thought was, "I fit the description!" Then I realized I had the perfect image in mind ...hence this posting.

 

Antique perfume bottles have the most interesting shapes within the body of the container. Here's to holding on to family treasures.

Since we stood in Lucy Maud Montgomery's doorway last month, it seems fitting that I would quote her for this image: “I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” I whole heartedly agree.

This one was 'bent backwards' to fit in the African Daisy.

My today´s evening post straight out of my window right now

Europe, Spain, Andalucia, Almeria, Centre, Art installation (slightly cut)

 

While processing the previous shot, I remembered that I captured another love lock shot some years ago, way down in southern Spain, in Almeria. It’s an art installation and an example of communal art. On the shiny structure in the middle is a fitting quote: “Es propio del amor si es verdadero, compendiar en un ser el munda entero” – “It is characteristic of love, if it is true, to summarize the entire world in one being” (Ramón de Campoamor).

The European serin

Fitting in that just past those scraggly pine trees is our 22' lighted cross, that but for the growth, can be seen all over the Lompoc Valley from it's 400 foot elevation above town at the south edge of H Street.

It was built in 1912 to commemorate the destruction of the first Mission Concepcion Purisima de Maria Santisima. It was destroyed on December 8, 1812 in a huge 7.1 earthquake -- we still pass that split in the ravine going home every day.

Continuing the unofficial Rock island theme I seem to have stumbled into...

 

In its short life, this railroad has already been captured from every possible angle above ground level. That being said, there was no way I was going to pass up a chance to grab my own shots; it's simply too far from home for my typical day trips. Thus, after a Thursday afternoon on the Fordyce & Princeton in Arkansas, I worked my way east to Cleveland, MS, and drove the remaining 45 minutes early the next morning.

 

The Mississippi Delta Railroad's two Rock-painted geeps sun themselves on a quiet Friday morning in Sumner, Mississippi. From the railroad's website: "The Mississippi Delta Railroad, MSDR, based in Sumner, MS, operates a total of 85 miles of track in Northwest MS from a connection with the Canadian National Railway at Swan Lake, MS." Unfortunately, the railroad didn't turn a wheel - except for a hi-rail truck - but it was worth a stop to get these while still clean and fresh. Just had to wait a couple hours for the shadows to recede a bit. Note NS (ex-SOU) MoW caboose #500000 behind the power, across the street.

 

A fitting end to my 2020 tour, because the first clouds I had seen all week started to roll in later in the morning and this was pretty much the end of it all.

The view through the fence of the historic suspension bridge where bungy jumping gained popularity above the Shotover River. Several places near here where used in the Lord of The Rings movies as locations and this seemed a fitting name for the shot given the many fences and locks preventing exploration.

Here's part two of my flamingo shenanigans! Taken at Hades - Love Island.

an oldie, but a goodie;-)

I've got several folders full of photos that have not yet made the flickr "cut". It's not that they're bad images or that they displease me. The problem is that at any given moment, they just don't seem to fit in. And for me, the concept of fitting in is a moving target. What fits today may not fit tomorrow. And when something finally does fit, it may be totally too late. Just like a witty comeback that does not occur until days after someone says something to you. For me it's often a seasonal issue involving, for example, winter photos that seem wholly out of place once spring arrives. I prefer my photostream reflects the current moment, at least visually in terms of time of year. It's one of many limitations I place upon publication of photos that fortunately has no impact on my creation of them.

 

This photo's moment finally arrived this morning. A sunset view of nascent winter wheat, barely three inches tall, but appearing to tower under a twilight sky. I love seeing the individuality of the thin stalks. They work together to provide a monolith of green when viewed from a distance. Yet up close, each one seems to express its own shape and character. As always, shooting scenes of vibrant color under diminished lighting appeals to my sense of understating the obvious aspect in favor of a lesser one. It's my way of fitting in.

This probably won't appeal to everyone, but tough..... I like it. And the title pretty much wrote itself.

By choice or accident, I'm not sure. But really nice all the same.

What a spread at the castle in the forgotten gardens. Incredible layout and the tables are so detailed. Notices the crowns on the table before me and hopes mine still fits, after all I had umpteen fittings.

Okay... I know my brain is playing way too much... I need to stick to photography. :-)

Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Den Haag, Kunstmuseum, Hall, Grand Dessert (cut from B&T)

 

It’s a curious juxtaposition in the entrance hall of the Kunstmuseum (the former Gemeentemuseum) – the early modernist architecture of Berlage with its Mondriaan modernist murals and then something that looks like a post modern object pulled out of the museum’s storage - a Jeff Koons? ;-). It draws attention to the ‘Grand Desert’ exhibition. Quite the ‘fremdkörper'. But ah, museums are having problems making ends meet and are desperately trying to attract a new public. Fittingly, the exhibition was opened by culinary expert and TV star Janny van der Heijden.

 

This is number 306 of the Museum album.

A small hawk fits in with the decor in this old tree at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge in Michigan, August, 2023.

Taken from a moving vehicle; sorry for the bad reflection, we had the windows closed as we passed by this building and it caught my attention. It's a fun adjustment solution.
