Day 334: The Little Things
Several conversations this week have got me thinking about how this past year, in narrowing our options and cancelling our lifelong busy-ness, has taught us all to notice and take pleasure in the little things. Things like the sound of Gershwin from a distant window, like children giggling in the street, like the perfect caper lemon sauce, like raindrops on a leaf. May we keep this quiet sense of wonder whenever it is we get to where we’re going next.
When I made the town calendar for its 200th anniversary in 2019, the idea was to juxtapose an old photo of a scene with a modern one.
I created the photo that you see in the comment section.
I liked and like it fine, but someone just had another idea -- that of fading one to the other in the same frame. So, I took the same two photos as did what you see here.
Those were photos that I had on hand, but this may become a project as the year unfolds, but it will need more careful matching of photos. One would have to take the actual old photo out onto the field and try to line up the new one. I had to do a lot of manipulation to get these two photos to fit together.
Not now though, for today begins a Stay at Home that will last for a month and maybe longer. We need to do this because the world is full of irresponsible nitwits.
Speaking of nitwits, I now see that I hadn't made the previous photo public until now although I uploaded it 2 years ago.

Here is an idea that I've had in my brain for quite a while. There is a story that goes with it. I forewarn you...it's a lot of reading, but it you want to know where the idea came from, or just what the MOC as a whole means, head here: www.mocpages.com/moc.php/407756
There are some things you learn best in calm, and some in storm.

We had our first big snow of the season and it blanketed the landscape with a foot of beautiful snow!
I hope that all is well, I have been extremely busy and an preparing to go to Washington DC this weekend to see my image being used by the US Navy Band during their Holiday Concert at DAR Constitution Hall! I am super excited and of course will be bringing my camera!
I will be catching up with everyone before Christmas, in the meantime sending holiday blessings to each of you!

My favorite daisy patch is on it's way out. I wish they could live a lot longer... such a short pretty life... most of them are just heads now, with petals drooping completely straight down.
It was very dark outside when I shot this. A major thunderstorm hit about 15 minutes later. But I made it to the car, before getting drench or hit by lightning. The things we do for a picture. :)
Used five textures, most at 20% opacity with a blending mode of soft light. Two by skeletal mess, two by me and one by borleanz.
Things have changed a wee bit since 1983. The Newmarket Sub is now an overpass for GO service, and a 4th track has been added to give 2 Mac Yard bypass tracks. The world has encroached a little as well. 5 GP40-2's have the Temagami Or Train in hand as they head for a crew change at Jane St.

PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE!
I haven’t really expressed my interest in the show here on Flickr, but I actually really love it! If you haven’t seen it, honestly what are you doing? XD
In celebration of Season 2, I have a giant group of all the main characters. Most of them are just amalgams of official parts, but some feature painted details. Also, a few parts of this photo were edited, such as Dustin’s hair which was originally tan, and Hop’s beard which was an orange color.
Side note: I realized I made ELEVEN figures.

a ficus tree bought from a neighbor, and a carpet ordered via Etsy - making this space cozier for winter!
A set up shot for Studio 26 assignment 'exploring the colour red'. I have just read the book; a strange tale, I think aimed mainly at young teenagers but I still enjoyed it.
Having said I had nothing red, I then thought of Clive's red pot and 'grumpy old man' mug, put together with my book.
1-Il cellulare. La mia porta con gli affetti. Gli incontri lungo la strada. La telefonata tanto attessa. Il messaggio che non arriva mai.
2-Le sigarette. Le indecisioni, le incomprensioni, l'appiglio ai sogni che tanto non si materializzano.
3-Il mouse. La mia coperta di Linus. La realtà che si fa virtuale. Degli amici. Molti. Il contatto con il mondo attorno a me. Droga.
