Landscape

Black And White Photography, David, Photography

Many of you that look at my regular posts know that I have a love-hate relationship with Landscape pictures, in that I love other peoples landscapes, and hate my own. However occasionally I take a shot that I’m willing to show others.

Room 306

Room 306 of the Lorraine Motel “is exactly the way it was on April 4th, 1968. The bed is made. The food tray is on the coffee table. The ashtray with a partially smoked cigarette is on the desk. As you peer into the hotel room, you see Dr. King’s surroundings during the final minutes of his life — frozen in time”.

The Beauty of a Starry Night

Black And White Photography, David Jensen, Photography

Every time I get the chance to enjoy the dark skies of northern Minnesota, I think of those who have never been away from a light island and experienced the incredible sight of a sky full of stars. This image was captured on a night when I was hoping to see the aurora above Lake Superior. The aurora did not make an appearance but, the stars more than made up for its absence.

Sometimes Ya Just Gotta Pee – In remembrance of Don Simmons

Black And White Photography, Don, Photography

It was a great day at the beach;
We built castles and played on the surf.
It’s time to leave, and I have to pee.

Mom’s all packed and ready to go;
Little brother is in the stroller.
But sometimes you just gotta pee.

Everybody is unhappy;
Mom is mad and brother is crying.
And I’m lookin’ for a place to pee.

The bathhouse is too far away;
I have to do this while folks walk by.
But sometimes you just gotta pee !
