I went back to the Classic Car show tonight and there were a lot of different cars there. It was a great time walking around seeing the old cars and meeting a ton of people! A few more of this car in the comments!

...in what other ways can one document the same information? in how many ways can we rephrase the simplest ideas? to be able to see one thing from multiple perspectives at once, so much so that there is no room for judgement, allows us to be open. to everything. and to do what we were born to do. without fear of being judged.

Slightly edited selfreflection on a car in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app.

 

It ain't always being easy being a wicked Reflectah, it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to make it to the point where I'm at now, and it'll take so much more of both to get me to where I want to be, while all I want, is a looong vacation, lazy me, lol. When I think about this, I always hear this song in my head:

 

"Sitting in my car watch the stars and smoke

I came a long way but still I got so far to go."

I look around and all I see are shadows. Shadows of where I once was, who I used to be, what I might have been. Sometimes it seems I don't even know who I am anymore. Where is this world taking me? Back to the shadows in my mind.

 

I love to go for walks and just set my mind free. It is so liberating to be all alone with my thoughts in an unexpectedly beautiful place.

 

This is probably my all time favorite picture that I've taken.

Photo of False Klamath Cove captured via Nikon 50mm f/1.8 D AF Nikkor lens alongside U.S. Highway 101, the Redwood Highway. Del Norte County. "State of Jefferson." Late September 2013.

Photo of the Southernmost portion of the Lost Coast and Hardy Creek draining into the Pacific captured via Minolta MD Celtic 28mm f/2.8 Lens along Highway 1, the Shoreline Highway, before it sharply turns inland, avoids the Lost Coast and 20+ miles later terminates at Junction U.S. 101, the Redwood Highway, in the census-designated place of Rockport. Mendocino County. Mid November 2013.

Time to think about nothing particular and anything else

Unedited mobile phone cam shot of Me, Myself&I, reflected in a puddle. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)

 

This is the last Self-reflection from this series that I'll post, I promise :)

 

Today I am not only excited about having managed to shoot myself in a puddle without any help, I'm also overjoyed because as of this week I have a new schedule...I don't work on Fridays anymore!!! Every freakin' Friday I am off and can do whatever I want, enjoy life a lot more, take tons of puddle pictures, drink a million coffees, smoke thousands of cigarettes and meet hundreds of my lovely friends... unless I'm too lazy to do any of those things, then I'll just hang out on my couch with my cool little Netbook, yay :D

 

Thank God it's Friday!

I did it! I finally took a wicked puddle reflection of myself! I am not sure if I am more amazed by this photo or the fact that it took me several years to figure out how to shoot a wet picture of myself without any assistance from others, but here it is, AmsterS@m the wicked Reflection :)

 

If you're wondering how this is possible, check my pose, it gives away the secret: I've put my phone next to the puddle, supported by a coffee mug, turned on the timer and ran back to the other side of the puddle...unfortunately, or luckily, in this case I prematurely assumed that the picture was ready and walked back towards the cam when it went off, hence the 'dynamic' stride. This makes me so happy! I'll post another one tomorrow and now that I've mastered this whole thing, expect thousands of AmsterS@m puddle portraits, haha :D

As former president Teddy Roosevelt puts it...behold it is the "Eighth Wonder of the World." The water originates from underground springs above and at the falls. Even during the dry summer months and at 129 feet in height, the water provides an almost constant flow rate of 100 million U.S. gallons / day. Photo of Burney Falls captured via Minolta MD Celtic 28mm f/2.8 Lens and ND-8 filter at McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park. Shasta County. Mid November 2013.

My means of self-reflection is through art, photography, and journaling.

in the cemetary i feel peaceful. i found this beautiful decaying leaf and had to put it in the frame. the light was so gorgeous and the dissolving leaf seemed perfect in this setting as a metaphor for letting life rest in to the earth.

yup, i shoot w/ a point and shoot. that's all. i'm poor, intimidated and lazy. and that's why.

 

yup, i'm shooting w/ my left hand. thumb, to be exact. and upsidedown. i hate that cameras and everything else in life are made for right-handers. so sometimes i do this. it works better.

 

and yup, i'm covering half of my face. i have a clearasil all over my chin for the volcanic eruption goin' on. that's why.

 

and now, i'm going to watch TV.

Chilling at the nail salon yesterday, waiting for my turn with the amazing Chow.

 

**UPDATE** On 9/17, I collapsed in my apartment at 0315 in the morning. I felt an intolerable pain going up the right side of my body and was having a difficult time breathing. I was immobilized for about 5 minutes but was finally able to pull myself up off of the floor onto the edge of my bed. I considered very seriously calling EMS/ 911.. The symptoms began lessening to a small degree. I googled the symptoms... I believed that I was experiencing appendicitis. So, instead of calling the ambulance, I decided to drive myself...(Im a very stubborn old broad..)

I arrived to Saint Mark's Hospital in Murray Utah, About 5 miles from my residence. The Doctors and Nurses there did not mess around. (Total rock stars) I was admitted almost immediately and tests were began. The test that likely saved my life that night was the CT scan.. It identified a very sizeable blood clot that had gotten lodged in my lungs. This is known as a Pulmonary embolism and is no joking matter. Had this nasty thing made it to my brain: Stroke or death. Had it made it to my heart: Death. Left unchecked in my lungs: Death.

So.. in a nutshell... I am very fortunate to be alive today. A huge THANK YOU to all the staff, Nurses and Doctors at St Mark's Hospital for saving my life. :)
