oh to have such a slender youthful figure that you can actually drape a swath of shiny white fabric across your hips and have it look so fabulous....

sept 8 kinetic DSC_3969
on the plaza they did this thing called fire water or water fire...soemthing - we missed the lighting ceremony -but went down for a bit while the fires were stll lit. in brush creek some ironworkers buitl metal pyres to hold little fires. they added wood and lighter fluid, can of course a match or something...anyhow it was pretty -and there was good music and a few people in costumes wandering about as entertainment. i wish there were somethig like this going on every weekend - it made for a sort of carnival like atmosphere as much as you can get that on the plaza. (minus the rides sadly - when will I ever stumble across a nice ferris wheel?)
sept 7 friday kinetic abstract
wes worked friday night -so after he went to work I napped a bit - then frantically went in search of a photo before midnight.....I remembered the fountain on metcalf and a wonderous thing it had lights - so I decided to play just a little bit. here is one of the results.
sept 6 ghost runner leaving footprints of light
i love it when hubby and i have time to play like this. I really want to do more experiments with light and long exposures like this.....I'm grateful that he is intersted in taking the time to do things like this with me...
sept 5 window to my childhood words 2 copy
teh lines under the photo say it all....i miss the days of operation discovery - learning by doing - being in the smart class - time with friends during the school day - a girls club - hippy teachers with VW busses - and lots of field trips if memory serves me right.
what friends names do I remember from this school?
Michelle (she was in a different grade), Vanessa, Laura Shawnhorse, Susie, and Lana.....then I also remmber stephen spatz becuase when we were younger we rode in a carpool together - and also he was the only one younger than me in all oft he more advanced classes and sections....

sept 4 tues clothesline kinetic 3835
not every night can be itnersting....so this night I had nothing to do and decided why not try kinetic phtoos with something which does not give off its own light....I am not excited about the results - but it is what I have for my photo of the day....
sept 3 yellow flip
this is a fn set up that I always forget about - these lovely dancing statues...the light was just right so having shot the statues themselves in the past I decided to go for the reflections this time...i think i will be back. this is the kauffman memorial garden just off brush creek
sept 2 joy of water
I went to the iris fest - I love festivals in particular I love the irish fest most of all. great music great wares and the food - not bad either. Now that I am eating meat I am able to enjoy the meat pies - and they are really quite good - they have inspired us to want to try makign something similar.....
sept 1 purple morning glory 3576
It seemed like a good idea to plant purple and blue morning glories along the fence when we moved in - and they are very pretty -also the butterfiles seem to love them - along with the milkweed which loves to intwine itself along side them. The down side is that they are very invasive they wind thier way around every plant and post - so I am forever pulling them out of roses and tomatoe plants...they almost strnagled out my lilac bush.....but again on the upside these delicate purple flowers are pretty.

aug 31 light play030
friday nights are "ordinary time" for my since hubby has started working weekend nights - but we were able to get dinner together before he went in and on my why home I spied a fountain that had some lights and decided this is an opportunity to play. I think I'll do more of these experiments in the future.

aug 23 KC Zoo126
remember the hungry hungry hippo game? this guy was a hot hot hippo. hardly would he come up from the bottom of his cement pond - but I was able to capture this brief showing. Such intersting creatures. They look like they would just be kind of dumb and happy, harmless like my husky - but I guess they attack people.
aug 22 cross cloudsDSC_2935
no zoo today - so we drove around looking for churches to pose against the clouds. how do you pose a church? very carefully ...most of them are quite large.
