Wednesday, 27 April 2022 - Rich - 04-27-2022

Made it back from the State Capital in good shape. I have always wanted to get a  photo of the rail cars lined up for the grain. This is not a real good one but what can I expect from a one handed drive by shooting at 75 MPH. There is actually another line on the other side of this one.

Hi Rich, while I was off searching for a photo to start the daily, you beat me to it.
But it may appear that you might still be organizing your thoughts and text because I only see a photograph in your post.

So since I cannot identify what you are sharing at the moment, I will post something that I wonder if you can identify.

MINUTES LATER.  Okay, now I see it.  Good shot considering you didn't have two hands of the wheel!  I try not to do things like this anymore, my reactions times have slowed down quite a bit and I am just asking for trouble.  Thanks for staring the daily, RICH.

I know what you mean, Lorell. The Doors said it best in their Roadhouse song.
Keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.
It is tempting though. Keep those young lovers apart. Back to back that is.

Hi Rich.

I am waiting for a Nikon mount lens to come. Should be easier to use. This Petzval is made by Lens Baby and 1/2 the price of the Russian made Lomography lens.

Right you are, Grant. I am impressed with the weaving work.  Wow, very skillfully done.

“Tête-à-tête” literally means “head-to-head” in French, and the seating creation allows just that. Its S-shaped, serpentine form encourages two people to face each other and engage in conversation, yet still be visually tied to their surroundings.

Created in the 19th century, the tête-à-tête is known by many names, including gossip’s chair, vis-à-vis and indiscret (so-named to thwart indiscreet eavesdroppers.) In addition to allowing conversation, it tradtionally allowed courting couples to make eyes at each other without actually touching. No canoodling here!

I had no idea that they are still popular and the modern ones are really attractive. 

I can't wait to see the images that you will take with your new lens.

Lorell, I think that will be my last time for a drive by shooting. No traffic near me but still dangerous.
I like the wicker chairs!

Happy belated Wednesday!
Rich, that's a pretty good shot, moving or not.....but be careful! I have done some of that (driving and shooting!) and it can lead to trouble!!
Lorell, that's a very nice Tête-à-tête chair. Fancy one! So much easier to talk in one of those....wonder why we don't see many of those anymore.....
Grant, congrats on the new lens!! Have fun!!
