Night Snow
Snow fall is so rare around here this winter, it becomes a major happening. The other night, as inches actually accumulated, I was drawn to step out into the darkness to experience the thrill.
Now I must go and prepare the house for a visit from Cyndie. I will go directly from work this afternoon to pick her up at the airport. I had the pleasure of speaking with her on the phone last night and I explained that I needed to go around the house and take down the pin-up girl posters and get the beer out of the refrigerator and get rid of all the cigars and ashtrays. She laughed.
Perfect. She doesn’t suspect a thing. 🙂
Few Words
The photo for yesterday’s ‘Words on Images’ post led Ian to comment about the amusement my antics must provide to the wild life. He knows me well. I stayed up late last night watching NHL hockey (we lost by shootout, but put in a good effort), and this morning starts early with soccer at the club before I head off to work, so I’m making this post brief. I’ll augment it with another image depicting more amusement I provided the wild life during my walk the other day…

Keep in mind that you can always click on the images to see a full-size view. Some of the text will appear a bit easier to read in the “Words on Images” creations when viewed at 100%. I noticed that this one, in particular, seems to come across with less than optimal lettering at the size posted. -JWH

Instant Triggers
.
.
the number of thoughts I can have
in the minuscule confines of a single second
baffle my sense of time and the universe
remembering things and forgetting them
in less time than it takes to finish a breath
accepting the places I have stood
as more than mere figments of my imagination
wondering about hands I have held
disasters I have witnessed
that were not really disasters
with the passing of time
providing enlightened perspective
photographs instantly trigger
recognition of more
than a moment in time
Re-Obvious
Speaking of “obvious” (a word used in yesterdays posted Words on Images re-visit), I find that certain words continue to pop up in my creations. I don’t know if that is simply a verbal habit or if there is something deeper to be gleaned from the tendency. The words, “brilliant,” “silly,” “whisk,” “simple,” and, of course, “obvious,” are a few that come to mind right now. You are probably able to spot more than I, as it is most often invisible to me. If I recognized it, I’d be less inclined to continue the habit, obviously.
