Photo finish Friday: “Fishing”

Fishing for trash during a creek cleanup. Not as pretty as real fish, and sometimes harder to “catch.” What would you find at a creek cleanup?

Photo finish Friday: “Closer look”

After the summer rain /
Lily,  wet on her petals, /
drips again, renewed.

Star Trek’s Lt. Commander Montgomery Scott and Star Trek: The Next Generation’s Captain Jean-luc Picard. To boldly go where no stuffed shirt has gone before.

Photo finish Friday: “Frayed Flag”

These colors may not run,
but sometimes they do fray.
I think it’s time to retire this one
and use a new one, today.

Photo finish Friday: “Ant-sy”

“The world was built by ants,” the first ant said.
The second ant didn’t disagree, but added, “We are not alone.”
“We are never alone,” the first ant said, “but that makes our triumph all the more delicious.”
“Like these leaves,” several ants said, including the second.
I guess the second overthrow of the world can wait, the first ant thought. Can’t do it on an empty stomach. He bit of a section of the leaf he was one.

Photo finish Friday: “Night freedom”

The full moon reflected in the far window gave him a taste of the freedom he longed for, but could not have.

Photo finish Friday: “Well fed”

Vegetarian fed?

I understand raised “without antibiotics” and “no added hormones.” But does “vegetarian fed” mean they were fed by a vegetarian? Or possibly that a vegetarian was fed to the cows and pigs?

I am also curious as to how you raise a cow or pig “gluten free.” After all, does it matter if the pig or cow had gluten during its lifetime? Does that mean no corn or wheat at all was fed to these animals?

After a summer rain, its anthers covered in pollen and filaments opening up, this day lily strives toward renewed life.

Photo finish Friday: “Film at Eleven”

Some things you can’t ig-noir.

From my limited understanding, they were filming scenes for one of the cable true crime shows, which is interesting if not ironic because the owner of the house used to read true crime books. Then she married and had two sons, and found them to be scary enough, as young children often are.
 
When we arrived, the entryway — foyer — was strewn with magazines, papers, and other chaos to make the house looked ransacked, and two actors — too young, too thin, and too nattily dressed to be real police detectives, were putting on blue surgical gloves as if they were about to inspect a crime scene.
 
I wonder what cops wore before latex.
