That… Which Matters Most

  • Droning On and On

    Where was the drone when I was growing up? Goodness. The amount of money my folks spent and I spent on toys that flew, for a quick moments in history, and then ended up being destroyed. From the balsa-wood air planes to that air plane on a string that you… Listen ⇢

  • Parade of Classics

    These are from the Christmas parade I attended to watch my son march in the band back in December. Disclaimer: I am not a car expert in any conceivable ways. So in giving the years, make, and model below, I’m guessing. I think this is a 1953 Chevrolet Belair. I’m… Listen ⇢

  • CBWC: Lines

    Another challenge from Cee, CBWC Challenge! This one for black and white, concerning Lines. I found this one, but like the color edition better. I included both. Now, the problem with her subject. I here the word “Lines” and my mind immediately jumps to… Lines on my head from that… Listen ⇢

  • 1950 Studebaker Champion

    As my sons and I were walking through Calvert taking pictures of doors, we heard the whistle of an approaching train. The tracks passed a block north of town and I immediately thought about getting a depth-of-field shot of the approaching train. We ran for the tracks, but the train… Listen ⇢

  • Bare Feet and Boots

    The boots below are the epitome of getting your money’s worth when it comes to boots. You can see that they are well worn, and now they are lawn decorations. The bare feet are Joey’s as he walks on the roots of a next to the beach on Lake Texoma… Listen ⇢
