This immediately came to mind, a quirky little verse I learned as a kid:

One bright day in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight,
Back to back, they faced one another,
Drew their swords and shot one another....
If you don't believe this lie is true
Ask the blind man
He saw it too

Really great photo, I love the mirroring and simplicity.

Beautiful Costume

He turned left right after crossing the street and missed seeing her walking his way.


 Nice Hat!


"Low and Slow", I enjoyed talking to the owner of this 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS. I told him that his car was really nice, and that my father used to have a 64 Impala. Ours also had the 2 speed powerglide automatic transmission. Too bad I forgot to take picture of him for our "Strangers" project. By the time I thought about it and walked back to the car, it was too late.

Thanks for the comment.

I took two shots of this scene. On the first shot, she was stuffing her mouth with a sandwich. It was not a very attractive pose, so I decided to show this one instead :).

Let's Kick This Off!

October 2013 Project: "Lines That Don't Like Being Lines"

I was out today taking new pictures for this month's project, but I thought of this one from my archives as a broad interpretation of the theme!

This was taken in 2011 at a car show. This huge crowd was waiting in line to get into the show.

Wow!.. now THAT's special!

Nice bokeh, too.

I've only been in Pismo Beach twice, once in 1989 and then in 1993 - I love that place!

Isn't that where Bugs Bunny was always trying to go to... and kept taking a wrong turn at Albuquerque, ending up in Alaska or wherever?

The appearance of Santa in the girl's reflection is awesomely perfect. Like it's a figment of her imagination as she window shops with her dad.

Amazing capture of depth of field and stop action on the bird in flight. You really captured the moment of an older woman enjoying the peace of feeding the animals around a little pond.

My favorite it the 3rd one - I really like the way you connected the big sunflowers in the foreground all the way to the mountains in the background.

I like #3 too. The main subjects are given their space and are periscoping the region. The mountains in the distance give more to wonder about, too bad for the flowers -they are rooted.

Shelter Cove, Pismo Beach

(First 3, Lumix LX5, last one: Panasonic DMC-G1, Lumix 45-200mm)

A few more from Shelter Cove, this is a shot of our hotel which is ideally situated on top of a bluff over Shelter Cove.


A view of Shelter Cove from above:


A view looking up from the beach. This reminds me of scenery at Arches National Park or Natural Bridges National Monument except that this bridge is man made:


Looking south towards a fog covered Pismo Beach from Shelter Cove:


While Gail used the Lumix GF1, my usual setup on this trip was to use the G1 w/45-200mm(90-400mm equiv.), and Lumix LX5 to cover the wide end (24-90mm equiv).  It worked out well because I could sling the LX5 on my wrist when I'm shooting with the G1. When I wanted to use the LX5, I would switch the G1 w/45-200mm onto my shoulder.

The final one is spectacular! Surging energy but still the birds are so calm and at ease, like the easy flow of the mountainous horizon.
