Between one of the many rock cuts in the Jefferson National Forest, 201 screams around the curves and bends as he makes his was west towards Bristol and eventually Memphis.
The veins run parallel from the base to the apex in this particular species of bamboo plant.

2011 - Bass wood and acrylic paint
Artist: Luis Tomasello, Argentina, born 1915
When Luis Tomasello changed from painting on flat surfaces to making reliefs, he said: "I discovered the wonderful world of light. The reflection of color on the surface fascinates me and that is what I've worked in from that time on."
Tomasello's Chromoplastic Mural consists of 672 white geometric forms (polyhedra) placed in a repetitive pattern to create a grid with equally proportioned spaces between the forms. The flourescent orange plane of each angled shape reflects off the surface of the white wall, producing a glowing atmosphere of colored light. Form and color are intimately interrelated and the artist's mural-like reliefs exist in the realm between painting and sculpture.
Tomasello is primarily associated with Kinetic art, a 1960s movement prevalent in Paris, especially connected to the Denise Rene Gallery. Kinetic art refers to work that moves or that gives the sensation of movement through its optical effects. It also depends on you, the spectator, to actively participate because as we move in relation to the overall work, the light, colors and surfaces appear to change dramatically. In 1965, Tomasello's work was included in an exhibition on Op art, or Optical art, which became well-known in New York through William Seitz's show, The Responsive Eye, at The Museum of Modern Art.
Tomasello lived and worked in Paris, France. He passed away in January, 2014.

So far I can't find much on the net regarding the phenomenon of synchronisation in human locomotion. It seems that when people like each other and/or feel relaxed in each other's company they tend to synchronise in various ways. I came across this again and again at slow shutter speeds during this Dublin city centre photoshoot.
A Soo Line train using trackage rights on the Milwaukee Road derailed at night on the trip into Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in April 1984. I don’t remember much of the details, but I seem to recall that the cause was some kids opening a switch to an industrial spur that the train hit at track speed. I don’t think anyone was seriously hurt, but I really don’t want to know what is in that tagged bag on the right. I’m not sure of the exact location either; if anyone remembers, feel free to let me know.

This plant received many years ago by Cactus-Haage, these grown from seeds listed by Christa Roberts / Christa's Cactus Catalogue 1988 as Yucca bella,where it was grown from seeds of Christa's (Christa Roberts) Cactus Seed Catalogue 1988. These form seems not identical with Horst Kuenzler's Yucca glauca var. bella HK 1660, that seems more likely a hybrid Yucca glauca x baileyi. Speaking of Yucca glauca var bella: In this context it should be noted that some botanists in New Mexico consider Y. baileyi merely as a variety of Yucca glauca, but i. e. the gynoecium is rather different.

I just love it when I can "play games" with the light and the shadows depending on the time of day I shoot something. For example in this early morning shot, the sun makes these awesome lines on this wall, that are completely parallel. Depending on the time of day, these lines change length. This is the time they are the longest.

There was a steepness in the darkness
I wanted to cut it like a comet crash
Hit the city, where you had echoed from a flash
Made it all seem not so bad
'Cause we were parallel lines running through the whole sky
And even in the low light, we were aligned
'Cause we were parallel lines, separate the whole time
But even in the divide, you and I
Don't dare repeat this
But when I lay alone that night
I let the city see me cry
And in my weakness
I wish you hadn't closed your eyes
Crossed the city, open mine
'Cause we were parallel lines, running through the whole sky
And even in the low light, we were aligned
'Cause we were parallel lines, separate the whole time
But even in the divide, you and I
I watched you comb your hands through the light
Every detail spilled from your outline
All at once you filled my eyes
And I could see it all for the first time
'Cause we were parallel lines running through the whole sky
(The whole sky)
And even in the low light, we were aligned
(We were aligned)
'Cause we were parallel lines, separate the whole time
(Whole time)
And even in the divide, you and I

It was a bright clear day and the reflexion on the little pond from the weekend's rain was just perfect.
