Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #324: In The Details

This week's topic is right up my alley. To start with, my favorite styles of architecture are Art Nouveau and Art Deco, both from the early to mid-20th Century. Both styles involve decorated buildings, with all sorts of frilly details, very unlike more-modern buildings which have no decoration at all (and are quite boring to …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #323: Sounds of Silence

First off this week, I have to disagree with one of the quotes Tina used in her post (link at the bottom). The quote stated that all noise is "waste". In my opinion, it depends on how you define "noise". Is the soft plashing of a creek considered noise? Or is it a pleasant, relaxing …

Pumpkins, pumpkins everywhere!

Yes, it’s that time of year again. The aroma of pumpkin spice lattes fills the air, and seemingly every store and doorstep has its obligatory orange gourds. Here are some from my travels recently. Franklin, Kentucky Kirkland, Washington. Cheekwood, Nashville Tennessee These were for sale at my local grocery store. Ugly ducklings! Everett, Washington With …

The Media May Have Moved On, but North Carolina is Still Suffering! Don’t Forget Them!

I want to keep these images before my readers, to make sure they don't forget that Western North Carolina is still suffering greatly from the flooding caused by Hurricane Helene. FEMA is still not helping, and positively harming those people, by actually confiscating volunteer-supplied goods! The Federal government, in the hands of Deep State Leftists, …

Fall colors in my neck of the woods

I live in the Puget Sound area of Western Washington, and most of our trees are evergreen (Washington isn’t called the Evergreen State for nothing). But we do have our share of deciduous trees, and fall is my favorite season. Here are some bright fall colors I have seen this week. Maples This line of …

FEMA and Biden/Harris to Flood-Ravaged North Carolina/Tennessee/Georgia: DROP DEAD

Herewith, some horrid examples showing that the government that is supposed to be Of the People, By the People, and For the People, is nothing but Of, By, And For Moneyed Donors. Read these stories and weep. Really, these stories will bring you to tears, and hopefully motivate you to fight back. https://twitter.com/RastaGuerilla/status/1841488252861133311 This one, …

Devastating flood damage in the Carolinas from Hurricane Helene. Media and Feds Ignore It. Updated Sunday 9/29.

My headline is not a joke. I visited four media web sites, including some known as being impartial and conservative. Not one had a banner headline about the devastation in Eastern Tennessee and Western North Carolina. Entire towns are being swept away, millions of people are losing homes and property, more millions are without power, …
