Bye bye Dog Days of August…
The week has wound down, the month is almost over, school has started..the cycle continues.
A stitch in time captures some scenes in Atlanta for us to share. High technology in photography keeps me in awe. Back when I started with film, the only option was black & white. And something new called Kodachrome.
Looks like the Russians have solved the mystery of the recent pirate attack. Oops, I mean ship highjacking. Well, when boarders take over a ship and people are forced to walk planks taken from the cargo….
We know where the ships at Patriot’s Point have gone but not quite sure where the berths will be after repairs are made. Storms come through here and anything afloat has to be protected. Even sturdy warships.
Jack and Jill and Humpty Dumpty have a lot in common. No relation to Li’l Jack Horner though. Maybe Marie Antoinette?
Is Life a Game? Is Gaming Life? Here’s an update on a whole world that co-exists with everyday life. The evolution of graphics is amazing to me and how realistic things now look on a computer. It’s a CGI* world out there. (I am pretty sure that stands for *Computer Generated Images as we saw in the movie Summer Blockbusters.)
It was a good day for leprechaun sightings with all the scattered rain showers and the colorful arcs created by bending light. Of course, one has to believe in the wee ones to claim that pot o’ gold but those ‘bows really grab your attention. Keep an eye on the road.
Anonymity is an interesting subject and here’s a good explanation – and exploration - by a person who does give their name.
Photographers often envy artists who can simply leave out distracting parts of a scene. Here’s a sketchbook filled with lots and lots of the good stuff. Take that Photoshop manipulations.
Let’s close with a story of chainsaws and removing bloodstains from clothing. Hey, there’s even a song by “Weird Al” Yankovic although he does not have a cutting tool.
I’m Chuck , it’s the weekend and I’m pleased we can almost see the official end of summer. Just hang in there.
