Oh, the stories this 65-year old sled could tell. My wife and her brother, who lived in the Berkshires in western Massachusetts, used to commute more than a mile to school on it over their snow-covered dirt roads, at least on the downhill stretches. And there was the time in 1959 we hoodwinked a graduate school friend into thinking the only way to get from Rte 295 to the farm was by sled; so she, in her spiked heels, fashionable suit and fur coat, piled on top of me, and we rode it over a mile non-stop, mostly downhill and even some uphill, all the way to the farm (my wife and her brother, making the same run a few years earlier, lost control and smashed head-on into a stone wall).
Since it doesn’t snow in our neck o’ the woods in CA, I photographed the sled on our bedroom floor, extracted it in PSE5, and placed it on a snow scene my wife had photographed several years earlier near Telluride, CO. I’m aware that this was a less than perfect attempt, but, if you don’t look too close, maybe you won’t notice…

ODT: 5/4/2012: Story in a picture.
In Round 12 of Get Pushed I have been paired with the interesting "pritchard1undefined".
He kindly gave me a choice of 2 challenges.
Specifically he said:
"very nice stream,....... In your stream, I still see people underepresented. So.... I'm not saying it has to be a face down tuesday :)......... but, take an unconventional portrait that leaves some unanswered questions. (avoid macabre or shock value if you can. I think it's always more of a challenge to show humor and happiness in an image than darkness.)
or
If that seems too convoluted- Tell a story in 3 photos. (if you have editing software. If not, post 1, then the other two in comments of possible."
Above is my response to the second challenge, hoping to show a little humour while I was at it.
Thanks for the challenges, Peter. I hope you like my responses.

While getting some Sunday afternoon groceries, I noticed the sun shining beautifully into the pond near my house. Wasn't I lucky to have such beautiful weather in October, and also to have my P&S cam in my jacket?

Only one key will fit this rustic lock found on the backroads Black Friday shopping trip with Kay. Quite curious really that the lock really doesn't lock anything it is the trees that prevent the gate from being opened.
I live n the country, 6 miles from the nearest grocery store. This is my house. I wish this challenge had been a month later, because when everything is green it’s beautiful. I regularly see deer in the field behind my house, and they go to the creek in front for water. I love the wildlife, but we don’t have many neighbors so it gets lonely sometimes. I’m “retired” so I’m home most of the time. It’s a quiet, peaceful lifestyle.

Quinceanera (15 yrs old)... is a tradition for the hispanics, it means when your daugther becomes a lady, she changes her flat shoes for heels, she can use make-up and maybe JUST MAYBE she can start daiting... a nice tradition :)

Of course I like this photo :) there seems to be some kind of interaction or dialog between the mask and the lamp , they are leaving a mark on one another .
I like this kind of pictures I was thinking something for ODT group and what better than this :)
ODT: Dualism.... Me and Photography
Birds beneath my window dustying their wings upon the lawn,
I hear them in the morning light giving last amen to a migratory song.
They're never looking 'round for me; their eyes are on the sky or the ground below.
I'd rather be the one who loves
than to be loved and never even know.
Hello blackbird, hello starling.
Winter's over. Be my darling.
A long time coming, but now the snow is gone.

March's theme for the Collaboration group is all about music. Today's theme: a song that makes you wanna jump up on your bed and sing into your hairbrush .
I chose Snow is Gone by Josh Ritter. I was just recently introduced to Josh Ritter, but I love him! And this song seriously makes me grin from ear to ear. It's about so much more than birdwatching. :0)

The olive tree is native to the Mediterranean basin; wild olives were collected by Neolithic peoples as early as the 8th millennium BC. The wild olive tree originated in Asia Minor or in ancient Greece.
It is not clear when and where olive trees were first domesticated...A widespread view exists that the first cultivation took place on the island of Crete. Archeological evidence suggest that olives were being grown in Crete as long ago as 2,500 BC.
