    … compliments of the peach tree out back … I was out with One late afternoon and saw this squirrel going up the tree to get some food for himself. Turned out to be one of those events when I decided to do a lot of shooting and over the course of a few minutes got several hundred shots of him … plucking the peach from the upper branches, bringing it partially down the tree and then gripping it and eating it whilst pointed downward on the trunk of the tree. He had a good grip, forced it into a little branch of the tree and resumed his meal, but the peach slipped out of its anchor and rolled down the trunk before making the leap into space and it came down on the ground beneath the tree. Our little friend scurried down to retrieve his snack and went back up on this branch to finish his snack.

    I was going to do a sequence of several of the shots, but got started way too late so will do it next week.

    A friend recommended a good book and after spending half an hour reading the preview I bought the book. Brief Answers to the Big Questions, by Stephen Hawking. Looks good!

    Into my long weekend and it looks like it is going to be pretty busy choosing 12 photos for the greeting cards to start with … more will be added later and hoping to have the initial ones uploaded to the website by Monday. Still have to design a logo for the new products and will have One as part of it.

    Kinda late and need a few hours before the espresso flows. Have a beautiful weekend and enjoy the day.

    Cheers

    I thought that time went sweet and soft and slow,
    And left no marks save those of gentleness
    That bound you to my life with strong caress;
    And you saw naught but all my soul’s deep truth,
    No fading bloom, nor form the years bent low,
    But ever still the beauty of my youth.
    — Max Ehrmann

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
