Surfed Images
One of our computers is set to have the screen saver display a slide show of any random image on the hard drive. It reminds me of when I play the music on my iPod in random mode and songs pop up that I didn’t even know were in my collection. I think it is funny that I need to look to see who performs the song, because I don’t recognize it. If it weren’t for the software randomly selecting the song, I would probably never hear it played. Sometimes, I am pleasantly surprise to discover that I really like a mystery tune from my own library!
Yesterday, I spent some time watching the slide show of our screen saver and I discovered pictures that I felt deserved more attention. There are pictures buried in randomly named folders –a convention that has evolved over the years– that I didn’t remember I had. There is no real rhyme or reason to them. Honestly, the best way to share them would probably be in the manner they appear on the screen saver, randomly, one after another.
Instead, I’m going to unscientifically pick one to display here as the spirit moves me (or whenever I haven’t got any idea what to write) for periodic idle distraction of escape to a variety of visual destinations. Feast your eyes on today’s selection!
