wordless wednesday

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

Obviously this being a “wordless” Wednesday post I shouldn’t be commenting about my pic but I wanted to share a bit of background.

When I first saw this truck from a bit of a distance my heart missed a few beats. In this part of the world it’s not uncommon (but still shocking) to see children riding in the back of a pick up truck. So you can understand my shock when I thought this was the foot and head of a baby!

As I got closer I realized that it was a doll – I sure wish the driver had thought about what it would look like before setting out.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful and safe day in this crazy world. – Chris

Macro Monday

Well, a bit of a stretch calling this a macro shot but you get the idea.

Reflections on a Galaxy

While taking photos of my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, I managed to grab a rather artistic image.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day! – Chris

In light of all the craziness going on at the moment, let’s just sit back and think of something that makes us smile. Pikachu!

Have a safe and sane day and thanks for stopping by! – Chris

Astro Boy – Mighty Atom

Chris and Carol Leave a comment

Who knew? I didn’t until I opened a video camera remote control and found these gems sitting inside since around 2004.

Astro Boy on a pair of Sony AA batteries – expired 11/2005 and they didn’t leak! High-quality batteries made by Sony in Japan. If your a fan of Anime and Manga then these are right up your alley. I understand these were produced in a limited run back in the early 2000s. I’m just happy that they didn’t destroy my remote. Hooray for Mighty Atom!

As Saturday becomes Sunday I’ve decided to tease a post I’ll actually finish tomorrow (my Sunday). Nearly 100 years old and counting (the camera not the post).

Rather rare movie camera from 1925 gets a new home. For more please visit my online camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com

Thanks, Chris

Blast from the past!

From a iron-on transfer crafting book 1991.

Do you remember when these hairstyles and colors were popular in the late 1980s?

Have a great day and be safe (and kind to one another). – Chris
