The Glacier National Park

Eduardo Martinez posted an article in Spanish, El Parque Nacional de Los Glaciares (The Glacier National Park) with a very impressive collection of photographs. He is kind enough to send me a link to the article which included one photo of mine.



I wish to visit the Glacier some day again, soon, before the glaciers are completely gone -- according to the article, "Scientists say that by 2030 all will be gone."

"Mary wasn't a virgin"

Flickr Queen is probably not at all an overstatement. I have admired her creativity for some time but I probably have never commented on her images before.

This one drew me in. It is good photograph, although may be not the best from her. The title certainly caught my attention.

Many people seem to agree with my thoughts expressed in my "God's Billboard" entry on this blog. I am not religious but I do admire people who truly believe. I just despise those who only want others to believe that they believe.


Back to the photo. The tension from her hands creates an attraction to the red flower in the center of the picture. Overall, the lighting is very well done and the red colors make the entire image dramatic.

[Edit]: The owner has chosen to remove access to the static image referenced here. But the image is still available by clicking the image above.

This is not one of the best pictures from lightpainter. I just happen to see it today. There is a book of photographs of old, abandoned automobiles in the waiting room of the mechanic's I visit most often. When I see those old relics, I wonder what exactly happened to them, what happened to their owners, why they left them there.

This piece of junk had its days. It probably brought a lot of fun time to its owners. Soon, they will probably meet again.
