Time marches on....


This was the very first in my "Vines" series. DT OKC, a wall beside the water taxi boarding dock. Fairly pleased with the end product.

Quote Of The Day:

If any one faculty of our nature may be called more wonderful than the rest, I do think it is memory. There seems something more speakingly incomprehensible in the powers, the failures, the inequalities of memory, than in any other of our intelligences. The memory is sometimes so retentive, so serviceable, so obedient; at others, so bewildered and so weak; and at others again, so tyrannic, so beyond control! We are, to be sure, a miracle every way; but our powers of recollecting and of forgetting do seem peculiarly past finding out.

-Jane Austen- Mansfield Park

English novelist (1775 - 1817)

Rising from the deep......



Not really. It was a fountian in Down Town OKC, at night. We were going to ride the water taxis and I took a couple shots of this. Very pleased with how it came out.

Summertime Reflections



Summer time is almost here again. Well, spring at least. This was taken at last year's Red Earth Festival, with my Canon EOS Rebel, 35mm, low-ish ISO and Fast-ish shutter speed. No clue on the F-stop though. My only problem with this picture is the reflection of a person in the water. Other than that it came out fairly as I had hoped.

If I could Fall Into The Sky.....


This would be the kind to fall into. Doesn't it just look all cushy and warm?
Somewhere twixt here and there. (Again) Sorry I don't really have a lot of new pictures 'cause I need a camera to take pictures. I know, it's a terrible excuse. Only one I've got, though. Love the sky when it looks like this. Makes you just want to be an eagle for the privilege to sour through it.

"A Thousand Miles"
Making my way downtown
Walking fast Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead Just making my way
Making a way Through the crowd
And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder....If I could fall
Into the sky Do you think time
Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk A thousand miles
If I could Just see you Tonight
It's always times like these When I think of you
And I wonder If you ever Think of me
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong Living in your Precious memories
'Cause I need you And I miss you And now I wonder....
If I could fall Into the sky
Do you think time Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk A thousand miles
If I could Just see you Tonight
And I, I Don't want to let you know I, I Drown in your memory
I, I Don't want to let this go I, I Don't....
Making my way downtown
Walking fast Faces pass And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead Just making my way
Making a way Through the crowd
And I still need you And I still miss you
And now I wonder....If I could fall Into the sky
Do you think time Would pass us by
'Cause you know I'd walk A thousand miles
If I could Just see you...
If I could fall Into the sky
Do you think time Would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk A thousand miles
If I could Just see you If I could Just hold you
Tonight

Some Dude



Some guy, who played some game,(baseball, obviously) and was some-what good, so got some statue in front of some stadium in some city in Oklahoma. (Is it just me or is he leaning?) Feel free to inform me if you smarter then I people happen to know who he was. Me, I really couldn't care much less than I do now. I know he ain't Lou Gehrig and that's about it.

I Saw Three Ships a Sailing......


Well, just one really. And not so much a ship, come to think of it.
