Photos of the Week

Time seriously moves faster for me...so, ummm...the "weekly" timing of the photos is more like 10-14 days. I guess that's more like a dog-week, right? Ahem. Anyway, this week's photo is posted, as well as several previous weeks, too.

Photos of the Week

I forget that people subscribe to the RSS feed are unaware of the new "Photo Selection of the Week". I shall remedy that today. Hey, you, it's posted! Click here for this week's retro inspired fat chick selection.

Horsing Around

  I took this picture the other day while at the step-son-in-law's mom's house. (I should have just said, "a friend's" house...let's keep it nice and generic, shall we? How lame does it look to have a double possession of thrice removal? So, yeah. It just seemed like a stark reminder that childhood does end, it gets overgrown and forgotten in a far away field. Then again, maybe it's a reminder that the wilds of childhood spirit lives! Eh, maybe it's just open to interpretation of mood.

Proof that our Judicial System Works

Sure, the guy (girl?) may still be breaking the law, but crap, look at that raw honesty!
I snapped this yesterday afternoon in downtown Salt Lake. It brought me a sweet chuckle. You can click the image to see the full railroad car shot. Well, I did shrink it quite a bit down for ease of viewing, but you get the idea.
On a similar note, is it just me or is it really hard to read most stylized graffiti? I mean some of it is so freakin' pretty, but I know they're trying to say *something*, but the stylizing makes it impossible to read. You know, if I were ~out there~ tagging around my 'hood, I wouldn't know who I was competing against. I'd say, "Yeah, that mo-fo, you know the one I'm talking about...the one that does (insert swirly letters here)." We'd never really be sure who we were actually competing against, dig? Maybe they ought to do their stylized versions then in really small letters underneath, put "work done by..." I'm juss'sayin'.

Festiveness

If'n you had a flock sheep in the backyard, a clever couple, a fake baby and a graphics program, look at what festiveness you could do!? This is a photo of my hubby's nephew and his wife. She came up with the idea, my hubby took the shot and I provided the lighting with a graphics program. It made for a pretty sweet holiday card for the young upstarts.

Wooohooo!

We finally broke $100 at Istockphoto.com. (They don't pay out until you hit $100.) It's been a year or so in coming, but not too shabby for a VERY passive money maker.

Roadside Giggle

I've seen this sign for several years...well, ever since I first came to Utah anyway. There are fewer and fewer of them now, unfortunately. A sign of the times in this booming development area. Especially ticklish to me is the farmer's most excellent posture. Sure, farmer Joe has had a long hard day in the field, but crap if he's going to slouch while riding the tractor back home! NO WAY! NO HOW! His chiropractor is, understandably, VERY proud.
