Handwritten and clipped to a suicide fence on a bridge.
Unclear if the notes were tied to suicides or more likely just a convenient place to clip on to.

I had the opportunity to hear both my girls perform a solo at tonight's concert. I am so proud of their talent, courage and perseverance.

"There is a calmness to a life lived in gratitude, a quiet joy."
Ralph H. Blum
Sometimes I get so wrapped up in the smaller parts of life that I end up taking for granted the things that I have, the things that make me happy, the things that happen everyday that put a smile on my face.
I'm grateful that my bedroom window overlooks the Rocky Mountains, for a job that I enjoy going to everyday, for the inspiration that I get from the world around me. Most of all I'm grateful for the freedom I have to wake up and live my life exactly as I want to.

Explore is nice. It is. But please don't leave a comment here just so I can come check out your photos or your sparkly-icon club. If you like this picture, thank you. If you're just self-promoting, no thank you.
For the 30-Day Challenge — June 2011
Day Six: From a Low Angle
I think people are interpreting this challenge differently, ignoring the "angle" part; that is, they are shooting things that are low to the ground, but their cameras are pointed at it from above. Or they're just shooting low things. My interpretation is that you put your camera down low and angle it up a little. Hence the power lines in the background. OK, whatever.
BTW, I titled this because the heads look like little notes on the power-line musical staff.
Local real estate agents mail these out on a regular basis (in hopes you will phone them when you list your house, lol). They come in handy!
Weekly Theme Challenge... PAPER
Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen's monumental sculpture Bottle of Notes soars nearly thirty-five feet and is the first public sculpture in the United Kingdom by these two internationally renowned artists.
Bottle of Notes is inspired by the history of Captain Cook, born in Middlesbrough featuring words from his logs as well as poetry built from tempered-steel echoing Middlesbrough's industrial heritage and continuing the legacy of the town's Ironmasters.

This image is the last in a series of three capturing the amazing sunset and "freaky" clouds in NYC one evening last weekend. If you missed the first two, you can check them out here and here.
This shot was taken just about 8 minutes after the previous one. The sky's color turned from deep orange to purple and red. The freaky clouds have all but disappeared. The joggers and business people who had previously stopped to look up and take pics with their phone cams have all departed to resume their journey home. It's too bad though because they missed this. The spectacular sunset and clouds were like rewards to compensate my travel woes earlier in the day.
I think this is a record for me - posting on three consecutive days! Of course, I'm sort of breaking my own rule of not posting the same type of scene/images twice or more in a row. Oh well...
Better on black.

First of the Class 254 High Speed Trains, 254001, with power car E43057 leading, opens up as it departs Doncaster for London King's Cross on 8th June 1979.
HSTs had been on the East Coast Main Line for just under a year and still provided some fascination for spotters, including this one here, although like me, he may have begun to realise the mighty Deltics' days were now numbered.
The power car is in original condition and has yet to receive the rooftop smoke deflectors which were eventually fitted to the class.
