Kernville, Ca.
There are some things and words which have lost all meaning through use and abuse. Words. such as "hero" and objects such as the American flag have lost all the specialness they used to engender. Now the flag has become as much a political statement for the right wingnuts as it has of an honored history (or "perceived honorable"). In a way, America has become a sad parody of itself.

I will have to admit that close cropped 'abstract' images of classic cars are a favorite of mine. This late afternoon sunlight reflected on the chrome shield (ineffective for real world rocks) detail of the 1939 Bugatti Type 57C Vanvooren Cabriolet seen in it's entirety in the previous image, appeals to my art sense more than images of the entire car surrounded by mobs of people and other cars. Since no one has ever tossed me the keys to their multimillion dollar baby, and said 'take all the weeks you want to find the ideal spot, and wait for the perfect weather, preferably moody stormy skies..............I adapted many years ago to darting in among the crowds, to get my interesting closeup. I think this is a nice one, but then I am biased. I have blown this one up to 40"X30" and it is pretty bold when really big.
