♫ Billy Squier - Lonely Is The Night ♫
Lonely is the night when you find yourself alone
Your demons come to light and your mind is not your own
Lonely is the night when there's no one left to call
You feel the time is right--(say) the writin's on the wall
It's a high time to fight when the walls are closin' in
Call it what you like--It's time you got to win
Lonely, lonely, lonely--your spirit's sinkin' down
You find you're not the only stranger in this town
Red lights, green lights, stop 'n go jive
Headlines, deadlines jammin' your mind
You been stealin' shots from the side
Let your feelin's go for a ride
There's danger out tonight..the man is on the prowl
Get the dynamite...the boys are set to prowl
Lonely is the night when you hear the voices call
Are you ready for a fight--do you wanna take it all
Slowdown, showdown--waitin' on line
Showtime, no time for changin' your mind
Streets are ringin', march to the sound
Let your secrets follow you down
Somebody's watchin' you baby--so much you can do
Nobody's stoppin' you baby, from makin' it too
One glimpse'll show you now baby, what the music can do
One kiss'll show you now baby--it can happen to you
No more sleepin', wastin' our time
Midnight creepin's first on our minds
No more lazin' 'round the tv
You'll go crazy--come out with me
" Lord of the Rings "- a Series.

The Search;
Ive been looking for a scene like this for a few years now but was never lucky enough to find one that was good enough in my mind, till now.
I came across a photograph taken by a professional photographer of a similar scene a few years ago and I messaged him and asked if he would tell me where he took it as I just wanted it for me and the family. I knew it was here in Co. Wicklow somewhere. He very kindly responded but he gave me the wrong location. Not to be awkward in any way but he just wasnt familiar with the different woods here and there are many. And another thing. Dont every ask an Irish person for directions as you will end up finding where it definitely isnt and not where it is and dont talk to me about road signs either. We built the motorways all over the World but we didnt do the writin` stuff. What did we do here? We did the writing on the signs as well so you havent a hope! Signs on slip roads like " Go back your going the wrong way " dont help either especially if you are European or American and drive on the wrong side of the road anyway! Heaven help us! Now to get back to my adventures. I had an idea where it might be so I set off to look for it.
I spent 6 hours wandering with no luck but I didnt really mind as it a beautiful place anyway and I dont need an excuse.
I went back a few days later on a Sunday and they were doing a mountain biking event there which they often do. I enjoy watching them and we give each other space which is great.I asked if anyone knew where the place ones and one guy said he did but it wasnt there anymore as the forrestry commission [ Coilte ] had felled all the trees in that area about 2 weeks previous. So there you are! I just went for a long walk and forgot about it. Glad I found this one though.
Its a very old Sycamore and I just came across it by chance. I took lots of tripod shots but this was one of the original and it was hand held and I prefer it. Im going to try and do a series of these if I can.
I hope you are all doing well in these difficult times and I know its not easy. Do try to keep busy and occupy your mind. Photography is great as you can take photos of anything anywhere so isnt it a good time to learn some new stuff.
Mind yourselves and big distant distance hugs from me..

My photos on Flickriver;
Rock Bluff School, in Elk City, Oklahoma. This was part of the Old Town Museum/Route 66 Museum...lovingly restored. My mother-in-law actually taught in a one room schoolhouse in north Missouri. I wish she were here to see this and tell us a few more stories about her experiences....
Inside the old Chaplin School at Chaplin Creek Historical Village near Franklin Grove,IL. This old schoolhouse was moved to the village from a nearby township.
Have a great sliders Sunday all!

Real talk son, graff on the brain shit was insane Nah′mean?
I got 25 cans in my knapsack
Hands in the air
Wanna daydream while im writing graffiti
I spent hours writin' graffiti
I spent hours... puttin' up my name in a fat cap
Yo I can still smell the paint in the air, like I was there
I used to ride the 7 train way back and just stare
At the colors on the roof, pale yellow was the shit
Everybody wildin′ out, anybody was a vic
Pilot marker in my pocket, everything was gettin′ hit
When you come through correct, your whole style get bit
Triple outline, takin' my time to look crisp
Can control, crushin′ cops straight stomp, we don't miss
Four fingertips, street krylons like 4 clips
Kill something spray and pass the weapon, keep steppin′
Niggas know my style still reppin' no question
I drop a lot of truth when I rhyme so pay attention
In New York, we make walls talk free expression
Beyond comprehension of the regular
Hey now Santa I'm writin' to you
'Cause there's alotta cool shit I want
I know I've been naughty
But cut me some slack
'Cause there's alotta cool shit I want
So here's my list-a
So check it a twice-a
My Sifey and our Friend Roddy
