This may not be the best lightning strike ever but it was miraculous to me. I stepped out side during a pre-storm light show and hand-held my camera, snapping this shot on the very first picture...for the next 20 minutes I chased another well-timed shot across the sky and never caught another one!
I actually attended a sporting event in Jerry Jones World today. That is to say a football game at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, TX. This is not your fathers stadium, trust me. Anyway, this was a 7AM departure for breakfast and early arrival at the stadium. The post on this observational adventure will be forthcoming but suffice for now to say, it delayed my posting today.
Without any further ado, I give you this weeks graphs...
The last few years I have taken to getting my wife a wedding anniversary gift from justpaperroses.com. This past year was steel (11 yrs). So I got her a half dozen steel roses. Just playing around one Saturday I shot a few B&W pictures using my new macro lense. Here is one.
Very late in getting this out so I'll just say here it is!!! No links this week...sorry.
The winners this week:
1. Flash And The Pan - Hey St Peter (from their fantastic 1978 album full of all great songs)
2. Elton John - All The Girls Love Alice (Yellow Brick Road is my favorite EJ album. Love every song on it. This being one of my favs...and a very interesting subject for the mid-70's) Moog synth ruled the 70's!
3. Creed - One (this band was great right out of the gate. This song off their 1997 debut album My Own Prison demonstrates why.)
4. Foghat - Honey Hush (my post-highschool years were filled with lots of Foghat!)
5. Korn - Freak On A Leash (first Korn song I ever heard...loved it. Not completely into all their music but they have some really good and imaginative stuff)
Well a mixed set to be sure. Feedback always welcome. Do you have a favorite Yellow Brick Road track? Ever listen to Flash And The Pan.
