Blooms

A few blooms.

Cross

A church steeple. Rossville, Georgia.

Lights Out

Loading dock lamp.

Graffiti

Public "art."

What Is It?

What do you think this might be?

What the...?

I'm sorta lost on what these might be. They look like the dandelion seedballs, but they're huge - between baseball- and softball-sized. I've got the idea that they might be sunflowers, but that's just a guess. Any ideas?

The Circle of Life

A bud, a couple of flowers in full bloom, and one in the background that's already come and gone.

443

Good ol' 443.

Spotlight

A sunbeam spotlights some of the forest foliage.

Going Nowhere

Looks like a road to nowhere, but the railroad tracks continue around a curve just up ahead.

Idle Hands

A closed factory. Rossville, Georgia.

Krazy about Kudzu

This crap will grow anywhere.

A Dark One...

An unusual looking specimen of Spring foliage.

...and a Light One

Either these flowers come in at least two different shades or they change colors.

Cherokee

A statue of a Cherokee Indian by the Tennessee Aquarium, Chattanooga, Tn.

Hub

The hub of a wheel of a Civil War cannon, a 12-pounder Napoleon.

Bucolic

I didn't like the way this photo turned out, so I started playing around with some effects (saturation, film grain, etc.) Looks kinda neat now, I think.

Spring Mix

Sort of an interesting mix of colors. Looks more like autumn than spring.

Isaiah

My grandson Isaiah.

Are You Talking to Me?

A statue on the Illinois monument, Bragg Reservation, Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga, Tn.

Sweet Nectar

I chased this bumblebee (do you see it?) around for about ten or fifteen minutes, trying to get it to hold still and smile for the camera. I was trying to get close, but didn't want to get too close.

Shadows of War

A cannon, I believe this is a 12-pounder howitzer, part of Water's Alabama Battery, at Delong Reservation, Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga, Tn. The 2nd Minnesota Infantry monument is in the background.

A Self-Portrait

A self-portrait.

A Quick Drink

A bird pauses for a drink in a shallow pool at Miller Park in Chattanooga, Tn. The building reflected in the pool is the Federal Building.

Who Doesn't Like Spring?

I'm no botanist, but I'm pretty sure these are flowers.
