On Phillip Island in Australia there are penguins called “Little Penguins”. Each night there is a “Penguin Parade” where these little guys come in from the ocean after a day of searching for food and walk up the beach to sleep in their burrows for the night until they begin their journey all over again. Some of their burrows are so far up from the beach that they have to cross the parking lot to get to them (thus the reason for the sign). It is a magnificent sight to behold to watch these wonderous animals make this journey and one I will never forget. Featured photo in the Signs, Signs, Everywhere Signs group – October 2009
Featured: JUST FUN…Oct 25, 09 / Featured: SIGNS, SIGNS, EVERYWHERE..Oct 10, 09 These young boys were part of a church children’s group who met their mothers with various “love” signs after church service on Mother’s Day. Out came the hankies when the mom’s saw this display of love and adoration. (I couldn’t help but smile when I saw the soiled spots on their shirts! /

This is a intersection of carriage roads in Acadia National Park, just up from Jordan Pond…the one to the left goes to the amphitheater, and around the mountain…the one to the right continues around the lake…these ‘carriage roads’ were built by the Rockefellers when they owned Mt. Desert Island, used by the ultra-rich purely for their amusement…now great places for easy hiking, horses, and riding bikes (and walks with your dog!)... they wind though the park, placed and built so that they aren’t seen from overlooks, etc… This image brings to mind lyrics from Dan Fogelberg’s “Nether Lands”... ”...Once in a vision / I came on some woods, / And stood at a fork in the road… / My choices were clear, / Yet I froze with the fear / Of not knowing which way to go… / One road was simple, / Acceptance of life… / The other road offered sweet peace… / When I made my decision, / My vision became my release.”........ ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: I stand at the ‘fork in the road’... ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: / High on this mountain / The clouds down below / I’m feeling so strong and alive / From this rocky perch / I’ll continue to search / For the wind / And the snow / And the sky / I want a lover / I want some friends / And I want to live in the sun / And I want to do all the things that I / never have done. / Sunny bright mornings / And pale moonlit nights / Keep me from feeling alone / Now, I’m learning to fly / And this freedom is like / Nothing that I’ve ever known / I’ve seen the bottom / And I’ve been on top / But mostly I’ve lived in between / And where do you go / When you get to the end of / your dream? / Off in the nether lands / I heard a sound / Like the beating of heavenly wings / And deep in my brain / I can hear a refrain / Of my soul as she rises and sings / Anthems to glory and / Anthems to love and / Hymns filled with early delight / Like the songs that the darkness / Composes to worship the light. / Once in a vision / I came on some woods / And stood at a fork in the road / My choices were clear / Yet I froze with the fear / Of not knowing which way to go / One road was simple / Acceptance of life / The other road offered sweet peace / When I made my decision / My vision became my release. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Canon EOS T1i, 18/55mm, auto / near Jordan pond, Acadia National Park, Mt.

The interior of an original 1850s Texas log cabin with late 19th century signs and work impliments. Located at the Cabin Park in Fort Worth, Texas.
This shot of a steam pressure gauge was taken in the engine room of the sternwheeler (paddle steamer) S.S. Klondike, which is now a static tourist attraction in Whitehorse, capital of Canada’s Yukon. I actually had two cameras with me, with both my lenses, but chose to use the longer of the two lenses for this shot, because depth of field was so important to the way I visualised the image. The light wasn’t great. It was murky and raining, and this shot was taken in the mid-section of the interior of the historic vessel. That’s precisely why I shot it from side-on, rather than standing directly in front of it and obscuring what little light there was. The Klondike played a crucial part in transportation and re-supply during the gold rush and was a symbol of the subsequent prosperity in the province. I can only imagine how many crew members in the course of the vessel’s operational life must have trained their eyes on this gauge, to make sure their wood-burning ship was operating within the correct parameters. I do not crop, enhance or post-edit my images in any way. Shot with a Pentax K200D, using a Sigma 70-300mm lens. F4.5, 1/90 sec, ISO 400, focal length 170mm.

That one single word says it all. This symbol has been captured numerous times but I still wanted to photograph it. It has one “imperfection”, a small leaf on the right lower middle part of the image. Yet as I was photographing this and noticed the leaf, I remembered Lennon’s lyrics in my head and it didn’t matter. Taken in Central Park, New York City.

The Bytowne Cinema is a downtown Ottawa movie theatre that is celebrating its 20 years of existence. Going to the Bytowne is like going back in time. The seats are old and the screen is small but there is nostalgia and a feeling of warmth and realness that you do not get anymore from the large multiplexes of today. The popcorn is amazing and more importantly you do not have to mortgage your house to go see a great movie. With an annual membership, your movie ticket is $ 6!! And they show the best movies …okay my movie taste are along the lines of documentaries and anything and everything foreign so this is the theatre for me!
