REFLECTIONS

I like the shadows from the hidden trees. This was near sunset.                                                              

They were such a well organized team. This video reminds me of a football game.

The other day I was playing with my camera in the kitchen. I started with a shot of my reflection on the microwave door. I wondered how the kitchen window would look from this reflection.

When I was a very young boy I remember being so afraid of falling asleep that I used to bring a small bottle of water to bed with me.  When my eyes began to become dry it would feel like there was sand in them.  I would sprinkle some water in them so I could stay awake.  I'm not sure what I was so afraid of.  This video reminds me about it.

The other night I watched one of the most frightening movies I've seen in a long time.  It's a little early for Halloween.  The creatures collect human teeth; sort of monster tooth fairies. I watched it on Netflix.  They are small, about the size of rats. But that just makes them even more threatening. Here is the trailer.  Turn up the volume and go full screen for best results:

Two days later we found the hair dye bottle in the refrigerator! Sometimes it’s my keys, a wallet, a bill or anything.

I saw this reflection on the plastic cover of the canvas as I entered the room.  It was as if it had painted itself! Here are two closer images: I had some fun editing the image.  A final framed version:

I was feeling a little sad.  There was no real reason.  I'm ashamed because I have so much to be grateful for. Maybe it's just a spell of low energy. My mood gradually picked up when I spent some time outside.  I played with my camera which also helped. I made two videos. Here are some moving shadows on the floor, from the tree outside my bedroom window.  

I first learned about Louis Zamperini from Kay G. Her site:  Georgia Girl With An English Heart The video from 2012 CBS broadcast about his life:
