I shot this about 5 minutes before the park was closing one night. A CM was nice enough to let me in the Fast Pass line to take it. This area is set up so nice for the perfect picture. All you have to do is set up your tripod and go for it. I hope you enjoy.

You're always brilliant in the morning

Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee

These foolish games are tearing me

You're tearing me, you're tearing me apart

And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart

You're breaking my heart

Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you

You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones

As I clumsily strummed my guitar

 

I guess it was foolish of me to think that it was MY place, that I was the only one that knew about it and the only one that went there... but, yeah, I'm foolish. I thought that because it was off the road, where you couldn't see it, that it was safe. I never saw people there, except once, and they were hunters, not interested in my windows and barns. But the past few times I was there, I had suspicions.One time I purposely left something there, it was taken. The last time I was there, the barn door was ripped off, I thought that maybe it was from the storm. But today, I went back to the place that I affectionately refer to as "Goat Farm" for the first time since the big snow storm. I guess there are others that are are hardier than me... and they got there first.... and broke every window in the house, except for one. Not only did they break the glass, they knocked out the wooden panes too. The pretty white window frames, with the rippled glass, and a few cracked panes, where I frequently went to set up my props and where I took some of my favorite photos. I would open the windows for my photos, but always closed them, and shut the door when I left. Last fall, I discovered that the windows on the back of the house, that has a stone foundation, were every bit as good as the windows on the front of the house. Actually one of them became my very favorite window. They broke those too, and knocked out the wooden panes. The step stool that I found there, and stored in the basement, they broke that too. I'm sure we all have a certain subject that is our favorite thing to shoot, the thing that we always go back to, the thing that gives us the most joy and brings out our creativity and our best work. Mine is old, broken down houses ...windows and doors. Today, I walked away from that place, and while it's also foolish to cry over broken windows, I did anyway. I felt like maybe it's time to just put my camera away for awhile.The level of disappointment and disgust that I feel for people this week is pretty much off the charts. Maybe this is the Universe's way of telling me that it is time that I start working on my "Two Year Plan" and that I spend way too much time with my camera. Well, if that's the case... then, the Universe kind of sucks too. What the heck is wrong with people anyway? :' (

 

The smaller window on the right is the only one that remains intact. So sad. I'm sure they'll be back to break that one too, in time.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY:)))

  

Everywhere I look around

Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound

 

And I don't know if I'm being foolish

Don't know if I'm being wise

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when I look in your eyes

 

Love is in the air

In the whisper of the trees

Love is in the air

In the thunder of the sea

 

And I don't know if I'm just dreaming

Don't know if I feel sane

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when you call out my name

  

Love is in the air

In the rising of the sun

Love is in the air

When the day is nearly done

 

And I don't know if you're an illusion

Don't know if I see it true

But you're something that I must believe in

And you're there when I reach out for you

 

Love is in the air

Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish

Don't know if I'm being wise

 

But it's something that I must believe in

And it's there when I look in your eyes!!

To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity.

William Arthur Ward

 

To truly laugh, you must be able to take your pain, and play with it.

There’s power in looking silly and not caring that you do.

Amy Poehler

 

If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.

Ludwig Wittgenstein

 

Mix a little foolishness with your serious plans. It is lovely to be silly at the right moment.

If we couldn’t laugh, we would all go insane.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

  

Good Morning everyone. I decided to edit a shot of the Haunted Mansion foyer. It is no secret that this is one of my most favorite rides here at the Magic Kingdom. In my opinion, this has to be one of the toughest rides to capture on camera because of the lighting. I hope you enjoy my shot and thanks for looking. Theres no turning back now.

This picture reminded me of the old Indian tale of "The foolish tortoise" a quick little video is here. in case you're not acquainted with that story.

 

This pic almost looks like the tortoise is being scolded for talking!

Well in case you failed to notice

In case you failed to see

This is my heart bleeding before you

This is me down on my knees, and

These foolish games are tearing me apart

And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart

You're breaking my heart

At last I have finished my video for my original song, My Foolish Heart. It has been the most challenging technically of all the videos I have produced so far. I chose so many photos and artwork that I ended up with 11 ½ minutes for a 3 minute song!! I didn't want to lose any of the pictures, so I had to go about this in a totally different way … compressing and condensing until finally I managed to achieve what I set out to do! Never give up!!! That's a good motto!

: 0) I hope you enjoy it. I have altered the lyrics slightly from the original “poem” that I posted. Writing a song and writing a poem are two entirely different things and the same components don't always transfer perfectly to the musical composition. I had to change the music a little because I thought it sounded so familiar that I was worried I had heard it somewhere. It wasn't until I finished adjusting the musical score that I realised it was something I had actually written when I was about 16 years old, but hey ho! Not to worry, because I think it was meant to happen that way, like most things …

; 0) Life is full of serendipitous things … happy little accidents!

: 0) I hope you enjoy it. I certainly had fun doing it and learned a lot along the way <3

p.s. At the end you can hear the mournful cry of the peacocks hiding from me! ; 0)

 

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

MY FOOLISH HEART

 

My foolish heart can't take no more

I cry at night; my feelings hit the floor

and in the darkness I think of you

and my heart tears a little bit more for you're not true

 

The shadows grow and darken deep inside of me

it's hard to see the light until my heart breaks free

I know I've got to let you go

I know I've got to let you go

but it is hard to do the right thing, you should know

 

At last I fall asleep and dream

but fitfully in grey and cream

there is no room for black and white

for the little grey areas are more prominent at night

 

When I wake up to greet the dawn

I hear the peacocks cry mournfully on the lawn

the sun shines in and warms my face

The sun shines in and warms my face

there's no room for sadness; gladness takes it's place

 

I have survived another night

I have come through another self-inflicted fight

now it is clear; the veil falls free

my eyes are open wide to meet the change in me.

 

I rise up high above the clouds

I shout your name and then goodbye so loud

you must hear me; let me fly free

you must hear me; let me fly free

for my wings can never be clipped; so let me be

 

For every fading memory and written word

I see before me flying free a fragile bird

it's wing-ed bones like angel's wings alight

the sun's warm rays; transparency in flight

 

For every spoken word of love a flower grows

and tilts it's face to Heaven like it knows

that lightness of our beings feed upon

the lightness of our beings feed upon

the caress and the love we find beyond

 

I stand in tranquil silence to face the day

my hand moves up to wipe my tears away

I'm ready for this moment

I am ready for this moment

I'm moving on to where I'm supposed to be.

And maybe one foolish photographer. No, the most difficult part of seascape photography is not composition or keeping your feet dry (as an online 'expert' recently suggested). Feet don't melt.

 

In my short experience the most difficult thing is keeping the front element of the lens (or whatever filter is in front) sufficiently sea-spray free so that pictures aren't stuffed. The best trick i've found is to keep the air-blower thing handy and to blow the spray away. The second 'best' trick is to use a good solid heavy tripod that isn't easily troubled by water.

 

I was much too close here and everything got quite wet because the sea is an unpredictable monster. I had also set the focus point too close to my feet. So I guess the third 'best' trick (or maybe the best one) is not to get too close!

Have a fantastic weekend!

Aerosmith - The other side

 

Lovin' you has got to be

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Like the devil in the deep blue sea

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Forget about your foolish pride

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Oh take me to the other side

(Take Me To The Other Side)

 

My mama told me there'd be days like this

And man she wasn't foolin'

'Cause I just can't believe the way you kiss

You opened up your mouth with bated breath

You said you'd never leave me

You love me, you hate me,

I tried to take the loss

You're cryin' me a river but I got to get across

 

Lovin' you has got to be

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Like the devil in the deep blue sea

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Forget about your foolish pride

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Oh take me to the other side

(Take Me To The Other Side)

 

I'm lookin' for another kind of love

Oh Lordy, how I need it

The kind that likes to leap without a shove

Oh honey, best believe it

To save a lot of time and foolish pride

I'll say what's on my mind, girl

You love me, you hate me,

You cut me down to size

You blinded me with love and,

yeah, it opened up my eyes

 

Lovin' you has got to be

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Like the devil and the deep blue sea

(Take Me To The Other Side)

My conscience got to be my guide

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Oh honey, take me, take me, take, take, take, take

Take me to

The Other Side

 

I'm lookin' for another kind of love

Oh, Lordy, how I need it

The kind that likes to leap without a shove

Honey, you best believe it

Now I ain't one for saying long goodbyes

I hope all is forgiven

You loved me, you hate me,

I used to be your lover

You know you had it coming, girl

So take me to The Other Side

 

Take me to The Other Side,

take me to The Other Side

Lovin' you has got to be

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Like the devil and the deep blue sea

Take Me To The Other Side)

My conscience got to be my guide

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Oh honey, take me to the other side

 

Lovin' you has got to be

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Like the devil in the deep blue sea

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Forget about your foolish pride

(Take Me To The Other Side)

Oh take me to the other side

(Take Me To The Other Side)

I was foolishly temped into trying some new mode in Flickr, took me forever to figure out how to switch it back. The fact that I was desperate to opt out of it should tell you something about what I thought of it...
