The lyrics from part of John Lennon's 'Imagine' came to mind, hence the title.
The theme this month is 'Above' and Evie posed happily on this rock, above me and the landscape around us.
We've had a lousy week weather wise, strong winds and/or rain, so some sunshine this afternoon was much appreciated. It is still extremely windy, thanks to storm Brian, you can see from her fur.

We've had this little vintage brownie for ages and it's sat happily on my book shelf until Immy asked to take my photo. Think it makes rather a sweet prop.

all wound up . . . ready for another mask making project!
I've discovered a wonderful source for the ribbons on my masks . . . whoever would have thought this project could take so many turns and travel all over the country!
The "lid" is from a clear plastic repurposed *Talenti* gelato container into which I color coordinate my supplies for easy organization and efficient creativity.

I photographed Magic Kingdom's Happily Ever After fireworks from the nearby Transportation and Ticket Center across the lagoon. It makes for an interesting perspective.

The couple I got to photograph on their wedding day two days ago. Look forward to the next one in only five days, where I'll also sing and be a guest. Then there's two left the following weekends ツ

This is a preview photo to another slideshow under development.
My photographer and posing coach was the artistic Ana Cristy Garcia. This photo set was taken at an indoor swimming pool.
Hoping the pool would be unoccupied, mid-day and mid-week, it was truly a relief to navigate the ladies locker room in solitude.
How the heck could high heels and more silicone than the caulking section of Lowes be easily explained?
As always, there is more to the story. I was super late and missed Kim McCallum who left just before I finally arrived. So sorry.
In the slideshow there will be a few photos of Kim and Cristy - but not in swimsuits this time unfortunately.
Blue? For me, blue represents tranquility, harmony, peace, and relaxation.....not sadness.
Maybe it's because my world is viewed through blue eyes and I'm generally a happy soul.
How about you?

can't resist these tiny lantanas in the neighborhood, Lakeway, TX. Sony nex5n and Nikkor Ai-s 28/2.8.
So my buddy Glenn from New Jersey, before Covid started, gave me this tub of color photos to take home and look through. I forget whether it was a $1 tub, or a $3 tub. Generally, Glenn's better photos are in the $1 tubs.
So I never looked at the tub until what, Saturday night? Color photos don't sell---the colors fade, and often the people aren't dead yet, and, I don't know, color makes a photo too muddled.
Most collectors I know don't think about color as color. They don't see a canvas awash in color; they want things in a photo---dogs, cats, pretty girls, row boats floating in the clouds (I've got two of those now).
But in this tub (about the size of a shoe box) there were a number of Kodachromes. Kodachromes are special. As the daguerrotype is to focus and depth of field, so the Kodachrome is to color. The color seems to hold up much better, and it has a richness that is, or can be, extraordinary.
So I'm finding all these Kodachromes (like 15 or 20), but they're all shite. Other than the color, there's nothing special about them. And I was thinking to myself, and I thought: wouldn't it be nice if I found a good Kodachrome.
And then I found this one. Tomorrow I'll show you the one I found not long after. It's even better.

This was taken in LaShiHai, a small rural village in China. Snow storms don't come often there, so I was happily surprised when it snowed during our trip there.
I have missed you so much this week! Unfortunately I was working seriously hard on the final stage of a project. Happily it all went very well and we can share some moments here again.
