Bit of an Old Tittle, well I've just watched the 70's film Get Carter Starring Michael Cane and of course the titles of the film shows a drivers eye view from a class 55 Deltic Crossing this very bridge in my village! So I decided to recreate the Shot with a 125...

Patterns in the "getter" of a large vacuum tube.The getter is usually some highly reactive metal like cesium, which is added to a vacuum tube as a thin coating on the glass.It reacts with ("gets") any remaining oxygen in the tube...

 

p.s. see Alan Sailer's comment below...

Get Up. Move. Give. You've Got To Get Mad. One Inch At A Time. Will You Fight? We Are Lions. Powerful Beyond Measure. Let's Fly.

 

I needed a little bit (or a lot) of inspiration and motivation to stop fussing on the crisis of our time and to start focusing on the power that we do have to do stuff. In might have come from a little 2 minute movie on Youtube made from snippets of other movies...but what the hell...it worked for me to paint and make these tees! You can watch the movie here: 40 Inspirational Speeches in 2 Minutes

 

Other inspirations also come the Ndebele Art forms of South Africa, Joan Miro and Wassily Kandinsky.

 

And here are the tees on Facebook

 

When most people think Millennium Park in Chicago... 'the Bean' first comes to mind. And rightly so, as it is a magnificent and beloved addition to the beautiful downtown landscape.

 

But on a hot summer day... nothing beats a run through the cascading water of the Crown Fountain... just a short stairway down from and south of it's iconic and highly reflective neighbor. =)

 

Two, 50-foot glass block towers at each end of an ankle-deep reflecting pool. Cool, refreshing water showers down on anyone willing to get soaked to the skin. As you can imagine... it's a kid's favorite! But it also brings out the 'kid' in almost every adult that wanders close enough to feel the spray. Frankly, it's almost irresistible... and at times... you just have to get wet! =) Pure joy!

 

Nothing better... for kids of all ages... on a hot, summer day in the heart of Chicago!

I'm a little disappointed that this dress is too small for me and I can't get the zipper up.

My hair is finished, ready for the makeup. Anna (my maid of honor) and Diane (my hair dresser) and Diane's grand daughter helped me get ready.

 

Guys, this was such an unfamiliar feeling. On one hand i really wanted to rush through all this and get to the wedding part, on the other hand i really wanted to enjoy the pampering :) I couldn't wait to see Robby, we hadn't gone one night apart in years, and we certainly hadn't spend 24 hours apart! I missed him greatly, my heart blooming with love looking at my roses, and being SO EXCITED over all my preparations.

 

I love this photo of me curled up, waiting for the next thing, the wedding time creeping closer...

Yes, hot air balloons are pretty in the sky but I think the preparation for takeoff is just as exciting.

I'm trying to get organized, I like having as many elements as possible on hand......this allows each piece to be one of a kind.

My heart is not in it right now...but I've got to get myself back into processing files and getting things done so I thought I'd start with something that made me happy and made me laugh before.

 

While I was in Florida, my friend Bill came up to Cape Coral to spend a day shooting with me. When the light became a bit harsh for photography, Bill setup his GoPro at one of our favorite burrows and he was kind enough to provide me with a copy to share.
