Hello Flickr! Been away for a bit for the holidays but wanted to drop in and say Happy New Year! Will be back soon. Miss you!
One of the things that drives me batty about bloggers is that they jibber jabber endlessly, saying little of significance. I'm practically screaming at them to Get Around To Your Point!!! Actually, I just turn them off when their jibber jabber becomes jibberliciously jabberness. Yeah, I said it.
I paid a student 20 or 25 bucks to copy some of my poems into this leather-bound notebook. She included some art work as well. I know I have visited this theme before, but, it's one of my favourites. lol And, yeah, that's a bonafide pith helmet. This is supposed to be a scene inside an expedition tent in the 1800s. I'm really getting my money's worth outta this gingham tablecloth I bought on Amazon. lol Oh, and the spectacles were my Pappy's (great-grandfather born in 1877). Or, his dad, who was born in 1822. My Grandmother wasn't sure. Yeah, those dates are accurate. My great-great-grandfather was still siring children in his 50s. lol He was an American Civil War vet. 210th Pennsylvania Volunteer's, Co.

If I'm Superman, are you my Kryptonite
If I'm Clark Kent, you'd be Lois Lane, right?
But, I'm no superhero,
just an ordinary guy
I can't stop bullets, and I can't fly
Can't you just love me for who I am
We'll let tomorrow come and go
And live life without a plan
Today, I picked up a very old Robertson screwdriver at an antique store in London. I'm attempting to shoot the end fit, so non-Canadians can see what it looks like. The sticker on the handle of the screwdriver called it a "Canadian Screwdriver." lol I guess that's true.
37/365
seriously lacking inspiration on my 365 right now. sorry to be so unoriginal with all the food shots. the darn weather doesn't help much. can't wait for spring blossoms.
If it's possible, I'd like to have Japanese Maple Tree in my garden.
So I picked them up and brought home.
I try to grow them.... pray for appearing of new life.
The older I get, the more I get older. DEEP THOUGHT for today. The watch, and the Camp Meeting songbook both have familial significance for me. The watch to my great-grandfather, and the book to his dad. My great-grandfather was born in 1877, and his dad in 1822.Pretty interesting guys. Been thinking a lot about time, lately. Mostly, about how little of it I have left. lolol "Time and tide", I have learned here by the sea, "They wait for no man." Oh, the title? From "Fly Like An Eagle"

Flowers plucked that convey our sentiments to almighty

One day You will take my heart completely and make it more fiery than a dragon.
Your eyelashes will write on my heart the poem that could never come from the pen of a poet.

Two more Deadman's Hand shots (more still to come. Until I get all the elements in the shot that I'm going for, or I too get totally bored by the project.) That's Arizona Ice Tea in the shot glasses-even though nobody asked. lol This is one guess as to the hand that Wild Bill Hickok was holding when he was shot in the back of the head in Deadwood, Dakota Territory on August 2, 1876. The "hand" of course is only a part of the legend that was Wild Bill, real name James Butler Hickok. It's difficult to separate fact from fiction as it is with many of the Old West Americans known to history. I like to think that he was playing this hand (including the queen of hearts), though there is no definitive reason why I should believe that. lol

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.

The Boxer
Another night of standing
Hunched over toe to toe
Of feeling punches landing
Grimacing with each blow
Covered now in blood and sweat
They wiped his beaten face
He didn’t know how he could get
Far from this odious place
He turned and searched the raucous crowd
Through bleary, swollen eyes
He heard his corner shouting loud
He felt his spirits die
For she was nowhere to be seen
This time she’d left for good
She couldn’t stand to watch his pain
She’d taken all she could
He heard the bell took one deep breath
He smacked his gloves and glared
At the man who now would beat him
In this contest of despair
Yeah, needless to say (though, I will anyway) the black ornaments did not turn out so well. I just couldn't elicit the feeling I wanted from the setup. But, I wanted to include all the colours that I shot this year. I find the black and gold to be very powerful.

I think I ruined this one.
The idea was inspired by something I've read months ago on how the food we eat alters our dreams.
I'll try better tomorrow!
