Cowboy Day

 
  
On February 19, I went to Cowboy Day in Columbiana Alabama.







Busy Corner was really busy that day.
It took a few trys to get this picture with no cars or people in it.

Abandoned

There are several abandoned factories around this area.  
I can think of four right off the top of my head.
I'm sure there are others.
 




 
The factory was dark and dirty. 
And I remember thinking - well - I must find somebody or something because like this I cannot go on.
~ Ruth Pitter





The factory of the future will have only two employees, a man and a dog. The man will be there to feed the dog. The dog will be there to keep the man from touching the equipment.

I went for a walk


in the back yard.






   
The myriad of shapes, colors, and textures
in nature continue to amaze me.

I've tried to identify the subject as much as I can.

Raindrop

 
Rain is not only drops of water..
It is the LOVE of sky for earth..
They never meet each other
but send LOVE this way...
Enjoy the LOVE of nature...
As we love each other.
