Wipping it back and forth!

Rome, Kiev, New Orleans, Oh, Battle raging.Very nice that I am not being hit with all that shell shot.Or grape shot. I can hear it whizzing by and the stench of blood drifts past. Blue and grey. Ax and bayonet. A child's whimper catches. The vision drops down. I can see a black long hemmed jacket, black cuffs on wrists, Black trousers with dull piping down them. A small child's arms wrapped around the knee, face buried away from the unbelievably bright explosions. Must be all of three years, black hair matted down. The right hand reaches down and rests gently on that small scared head, Head turns upward and wet and sad eyes look upward, The child tries a little smile, the view steps back child still attached and every lights, bomb, ricochet collapse along a straight line and is gone.....woooooop...


Excel sheets and numbers and columns and rows and highlighting. All with a dash of Sherlock Holmes in there to find out what numbers are collections of other numbers and what has been split away from other numbers. It was done, and it was done up a treat, as they say on half of my genes. Took a long while but with some music in the background and a soft drink from yesterday at elbow it was a fun exercise. Doing up the travel was another thing completely. Trying, frustrating and downright rude! Tomorrow I expect more interesting things to do with paper, computer screens, accounting and hopefully a pop tart.

Oh the photography side... well that's quite interesting... Tat Lytro camera that captured all light coming into it and then you used the online software to refocus on whatever you wanted within that photograph is already outdated. There are software packages that will do the same thing with a normal camera. Which means that you should soon be able to do the same thing without paying for a new camera. I like that. It would be neat to have a frame around your picture that you could slide farther away and see what the focus lands on and what is unfocused. I think I could spend hours  going back and forth. Keep your ears open. When it comes available I will post about it. Pictures a tweaked last night are below. I really have to do that fish or cut bait thing again. Stacks of shots and none moved to my website... sigh


Altimetrique!


Say It Fast..


The friendly Skies.


Graffiti in the sky.


Woosh.... and the day be done...

Oh... yes...links.... Bare with me.. just to the left.

Its not that there are more idiots out there. It is that they are readily apparent because of the new media links. Before people would just shut up and not show the fool the were. Now.... You cant shut them up.

This makes me laugh. All the work and hassle to move these things and put em up and very soon we will be looking back and saying, "what the hell were they thinking?" Dumb, dumber and downright foolish.. but that's just me.

I can think of fourteen ways to use smaller blades for the same effect.
