From point A to point B

The iconic sphere at Epcot. Inside is the ride Spaceship Earth.

Part of the show at Festival of the Lion King at Animal Kingdom Disney World. Everyone else at the show was using their point-and-shoot cameras with the flash. This one turned out nice because of the slower shutter speed that captured the motion of the twirling flame. I love how the glow of the flames lights up the crowd.

On our trip to Disney World, we also saw Japan. At Epcot’s World Showcase Pavilion.

We took a family vacation to Disney World. This is our flight to Orlando. We’re somewhere over Georgia.

Air. You’ll notice that it’s not free here.

This old barn has been sitting on the North end of Tea for years, slowly decaying. This is the end of it’s time, as well as the end of the day.

I was so inspired by the gold reflective grid pattern, that I took it one step further.

Meet Robo-Elvis. He’s a 22 inch high, Hound Dog singin’ machine. Literally. Robo-Elvis was conceived by my 9 year-old daughter for a school project. The assignment was “Junk Robots.” the kids had to build robots out of things found around the house. (Yes. The Elvis Sunglasses were lying around the house…)

Robo-Elvis has a mini-cassette recorder that plays “Hound Dog.”

When asked what Robo-Elvis’ occupation? Lounge Singer. Teacher’s Lounge Singer.

Great work, Maddie!

These shots were taking at my youngest daughter’s birthday party at Suburban Lanes. Each of these shots on their own aren’t extraordinary. But the sequence is fun!

This is a simple hill on a golf course… But the compressed view of the two hills and the way the clouds shadow the far hill is pretty cool. I just love the way nature creates its’ own design.

Tulips are probably one of the most iconic of all Springtime flowers. But sticking your camera down below them in the flower bed to get a low angle, “daunting” shot, amkes them appear 10 feet tall, and gives them a different attitude than normal.

Yesterday’s photo contrasted the flat lines of the roof with the soft, billowy clouds. Today, we see a flat-bottomed cloud contrasting with a curved roofline.

The clouds this Spring have been absolutely picture-perfect. This is the roofline and skylight at Scheels Sporting Goods on Western Ave. The sharp angles of the roof and geometric lines in the building contrasting with the soft, puffy, organically-shaped clouds is nice.

The clouds in yesterday’s photo hinted toward the weather that lie ahead.

Pretty basic idea. I just to have happened upon driving by this giant flag, and thought it was even more glorious against the cloud.

These old guys still have some kick, some get-up-and-go, some oomph.

I’ll be the first to admit that I know very little about antiques… But I found this oddity at a local antique shop.
