It is no wonder people get confused.

  

Moving day

  
Life is full of endings and beginnings

 

and beginnings and endings.

 

Attachment creates discomfort at endings.

  

Beginnings are an attitude, an action

  

that requires courage.

 

 

Fear breeds attachment to the 'way things are'.

  

 

Life is always only beginning

 

 

whether we are aware of it or not.

Salvador 84 lens

I picked up the Salvador 84 lens and the DreamCanvas film for the Hipstamatic app.
The first two were taken using the Salvador 84 lens and the Blanko film.

Christmas through the bottom of a bottle
 

 

a water bottle that is.
This is our Christmas tree photographed through a plastic, crinkled up water bottle.
I know, I get a little crazy experimenting sometimes. roflmao

Send in the clowns

Isn't it rich, are we a pair

Me here at last on the ground

You in mid-air

Send in the clowns

Isn't it bliss, don't you approve

One who keeps tearing around

One who can't move

Where are the clowns

Send in the clowns

 

Just when I'd stopped opening doors

Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours

Making my entrance again with my usual flair

Sure of my lines

No one is there

Don't you love a farce,

My fault I fear,

I thought that you'd want what I want

Sorry my dear!

 

But where are the clowns

There ought to be clowns

Quick send in the clowns

What a surprise,

Who could foresee?

I'd come to feel about you

What you felt about me?

Why only now when I see

That you've drifted away?

What a surprise...

What a cliche...

Isn't it rich, isn't it queer

Losing my timing this late in my career

And where are the clowns

Quick send in the clowns

Don't bother, they're here

  

 

    

   The clowns in these photos are volunteer clowns at the local children's hospital.
