The Saddest Photo In The Whole World
For just pennies a day, you can help save these animals.
Years of being fed cheeseburgers and corn dogs through the fence by kids and well meaning adults has led these animals to horrible lives cut short by heart disease, diabetes and snoring.
Meet Pocahontas. Once a strong happy productive pony, she now just lays around the stall wearing pink fuzzy slippers and a moo moo watching old re-runs of Oprah.
Thats right, just pennies a day. With your help, we would be able to purchase these mass produced hand crafted 'Do Not Feed The Animals' sign and a couple clubs to beat the kids and well meaning adults who don't read. The rest goes to me.
Please help save Pochahontas from a lifetime of watching Oprah re-runs. Give today, feed me instead.

Rollingstop
As I approached the big red and white sign that said 'STOP', I slowed my car down to a snails pace, looked both ways and continued on my way only to have flashing lights in my rearview mirror blind me as I came out of the intersection.
I knew what I did but I really did go REALLLL SLLLLOW through it. I didn't need a ticket so I decide to come up with some story about how the brakes only work sometimes on my car.
I pulled over to the side, saw the Officer in my side mirror approach within a few feet and slowly let go of the brake pedal and coasted three feet further down the road. I saw him stare at me, mad as heck. He started approaching again and once more, just before he got to the door, I let the brakes go and coasted another five feet.
"Son" he says to me (I was only six at the time of this) "There is no humor in this"
I yelled back, "it's not my fault! I think the ABS is PMSing. They are VERY moody" ( I got this from my father. He always said this when he couldn't get my mom to do something. I just hoped the officer didn't slap me and cry afterwards like my mom did)
He approached.
I coasted.
If you do that again, I will Taser the (censored) out of you! I did the 'It's not my fault shrug and gave him my best WHAAAAAAAA? Face and let go of the break.
He stayed true to his word.
With a million volts running through me, my foot stomped on the gas peddle, I pealed out, tore off down the street at 120mph and ran FOUR more stop signs WHICH he gave me FOUR more tickets for ... right after I got out of jail.
So unfair!

Infectious Smile
As the Mickey's Soundsational Parade marched by I felt a smile race across my face as I anticipated my favorite part that was about to come up. The Monkeys. The costumes are perfect, there movements with the music amazing. They are all over the street as they dance and it is a real treat the way they interact with the crowd. But one thing stands out above all else, they are having a blast doing what they do. It shows on there face. The smile they hand out to everyone is infectious and you are doomed when you see it. What ever mood you are in is instantly gone and no matter how hard you fight it, you are smiling right along with them.
----------------------------------
Apparently, this only works with the smile. I tested this out with the 'Surprise Look' and it didn't work. I went around the rest of the day making surprise faces at random people. They all ran away screaming. Finally the Disney Police asked me to stop scaring the other Guest. So I gave them my 'Surprise Look'. They tossed me over the wall on my rear.

The Big Thunder Railroad Sliders Sunday Express
I wanted a good a shot I could work with for Sliders Sunday. So I jumped in line at Big Thunder Railroad and found some great shots all over the queue line. Soon I found myself next to a train waiting to leave the station on a tour of the mountain.
Everything was fine till the train rounded the top of the mountain and the conductor fell out and rolled back to the bottom of the oversized hill.
The runaway train headed down the mountain at unbelievable speeds. Banking to the left, cornering to the right we zoomed through the mountain so fast, most of whats left of my hair fell out.
After the train stopped and I was gathering up my hair, I took the shot and headed home.
I spent years (stop looking at the date the photo was taken) processing this photo to get it just right for Sliders Sunday.
I finally finished it and here it is. The photo weighs about 200 pounds now with all that processing on it so don't attempt to lift your computer monitior.

The Diamond T And Me
I got caught by the Disney Bait Car Police today. It started when I saw this awesome Diamond T in Disney California Adventure and I noticed it had the keys still in it. Who in there right mind would pass up a chance to drive around inside a Disney Park? (will everyone please put your hands down, I got the hint)
Anyway, I hopped in the old jalopy, started the engine, floored the gas pedal THEN put it in gear. The front of the truck lifted off the ground and I went about two feet and crashed into a facade of a fake street.
Sirens where everywhere! Disney Police had me surrounded. I quickly tried to come up with a story.
Apparently they know me by look now. They tossed me over the fence and out of the park before I could even explain about the little girl who did it and left the scene with me looking quilty. Very rude.

Headhunter
It came from behind me. First a tap on my shoulder followed by a 'Psst, Hey Buddy'. I turned around and saw no one but an ugly wooden face hanging on a fence. As I was pulling splinters from my shoulder, it came again, 'Psst, You there'. I looked up and saw the ugly wooden face staring at me.
'You need a job?' it asked me. 'I do not' I told it.
'You need a job!' it told me.
'I do not?' I asked it.
It stared at me unblinking with its wooden eyes, 'you pay me $5 and I get you a job'. Bewildered, I asked it what kind of job I was gonna get for $5.
Hooker
Erm, no
Housewife
Too much work and I don't have the boobs.
Cat Burglar
I have enough cats and don't need anymore.
He shook his head and lowered his eyes as if he was the one talking to an ugly wooden face hanging on a fence. Suddenly his eyes popped open and he exclaimed 'AHA, Set Decorator!'
I began to say no when he cut me off, 'shut up young dumb one', he says, 'pay me $5, it is settled'. So I reached into my pocket and pulled out 5 rolls of pennies and handed them over. With that, he cut off my head, threw it across the walkway and yelled 'you decorate that fence way over there!'

Somebody Please Take The White Rabbits Watch Away!
My Friend Alice came through the Looking Glass today for some Tea with me in the garden. We were having a blast catching up on old times when after around 2 liters of Tea I realized I had to use the bathroom.
As I stood up to go I said I would only be a minute and a 3" tall White Rabbit jumped out from behind my tea cup holding his pocket watch. One minute, one minute, hurry hurry, don't be late! I stared at him for moment then started to say, what the ... well, I won't put that word in here, when he chimed up, Fifty five seconds, fifty five second, don't be late, please don't be late.
I began to ask what happens if I'm late when he began again. Fifty seconds and counting down, please do hurry, you mustn't be late, you mustn't!
With that I ran in a panic! Out of the garden and into the front door I sped, over a cat and around the dog I ran, hopped and skipped.
To the bowl, to the sink and back to the garden I flew! When I returned I found the White Rabbit standing on my garden table scowling at me next to a puddle. I pointed, 'is that ...' and he cut me off, Your Three Seconds Late!

It's Not Tough Sailing A Ship
Dear Diary,
Captain Whats His Name let me drive the ship today for the first time. He then scolded me for jumping up and down and clapping my hands, said it was unpirate like. He then laid out the course for me. He wanted me to pull out of port, circle Tom Sawyers Island and pull back into port again. I can't tell you how excited I was.
It started off kind of rough. I was full speed out of port and I may of hit a few things on the way out. Or everything, I'm not really sure with all the screaming going on.
I took the first corner kinda fast and had to put the ship on a 45 degree angle to keep from tipping. You should of seen the wave I created, it was AWESOME! I uprighted the ship and looked over at Captain Whats His Name with his hair flying straight out behind him and could see he was saying something to me. I couldn't hear what he was saying with the wind rushing by so fast. I assumed he was looking for his hat. I yelled back he should of used Bobby Pins to secure it better. His mouth dropped open in the 'O' position so I believe he heard me.
As we rounded the second corner at around 100 MPH I forgot to bank the ship and a couple of things (and a pirate or two) may have flown off the deck. It was ok though because they could hold onto the mast that went over too.
By this time we were coming back to the port, I could see Captain Whats His Name crawling through the Hurricane force winds towards me yelling something. I yelled back I couldn't hear him. He yelled again. I shrugged back. He yelled louder and this time I heard him.
SLOW DOWN!
I looked up, saw we were in port and about to hit the Bountiful Booty Nursery for Pirate Younguns. I was so proud of myself, I stayed calm, cool and collected. I reached down, dropped anchor, the ship flipped and I saw Captain Whats His Name fly through the air! What a guy! He's never once bragged about being able to fly!
I haven't heard back yet from Captain Whats His Name but all in all, I think it was a pretty good day. I can't wait till he gets back, I'm sure I'll get promoted.

Rusted
It's not often I show a before shot, in fact, I have only done it once but I thought it was time to do it again. Truth be told, I'm rusted and can't come up with a good (or bad) story. Nor did I have any idea what to shoot today but I know I wanted to shoot something.
With no idea what to photograph, I went outside and looked around. I try to come up with different photos to keep the viewer from getting bored with my shots and at the same time I want people to see a shot and know right away it's from me.
I found an old metal and glass candle holder hanging on the fence full of cob webs. I love the rust on it so I decided the rusted candle holder would be the subject.
As for the background, that was tougher. Composition is everything to me. You can't have a good shot without it.
I love my gargoyles and I haven't taken a photo of them in awhile so I decided I wanted one in bokeh for the background. I found one I thought made a nice profile. Then I found a nice red leafy plant in a pot and thought it would make great flames coming off the gargoyle.
So I placed the red leafy plant in a nice spot, positioned the gargoyle about a foot in front of it then placed the rusted candle holder about two feet in front of that. I took my camera, got a few inches from the candle holder and found the angle I wanted but then I had to re arrange the gargoyle and red plant to fit the line of sight.
Once set up, I took 5 shots at different exposures. Processed them through Niks HDR effexs. Then processed it through Niks Color Efex and smoothed the shot out using Niks Dfine. I saved it as a Tiff and opened the shot using Lightroom to add some finishing touches with saturation and exposure then saved as a Tiff and JPG. (jpg is uploaded on flickr, tiff is saved on my computer)
So thats how I take a shot and hopefully I can shake some of this rust off soon and get back to normal.

The Vengeful Maid Ghost At The Panhandle Hotel
Some say it's haunted, some say it's wild imagination.
A recent stay at the Panhandle Hotel in Big Thunder made me a believer though.
I was told not to upset the unearthly guests but since I did not believe, I spent the entire day doing just that. 'I ain't afraid of no ghost' I would say and 'Who ya gonna call'. I sung the Ghostbusters theme song around 80 times. Finally, I picked my nose and yelled, 'Ewwwwwwww, ectoplasma on my finger!!!' Not even a floorboard creeked.

Global Warming, Burritos & A Fish I Named Bubbles
Global warming, once blamed on Cow Farts is in fact happening but it's not the Cows fault.
While watching baseball and eating burritos with my pet fish Bubbles, I noticed he kept tooting. After further inquiries I discovered ALL fish love to watch baseball and eat burritos.
This led me to hours of scientific research and I have come to the conclusion that Global Warming is NOT the fault of a million Cow Farts but in fact IS the fault of a billion Fish Farts.

I Wanna Play In The Sunshine
It's hot and humid here and all I wanted to do was stay indoors. Pluto on the other hand had other ideas. I let the hound talk me into going for a walk, a leisurely walk. We stepped out into the sun, got three steps and leisurely flew out the window. With me flying behind him, holding on for dear life, he jumped into the neighbors garden, ate their flowers, ran down the steet, dug a hole, dragged me to the next block to chase cars (we caught two and now I don't know what to do with the bumpers) and ended up in a park on the other side of town sitting under the sprinklers.

But The Nice Lady Said ' Watch Your Step '
I saw the big wheel at the otherside of the park and knew right away I wanted to ride it to the top and take pictures from the sky. I held my camera tight and started to run to my destination of inspiration. After two feet, I was hot, tired and gasping for breath.
A couple hours later, I was able to finish my journey to the great wheel and stood in line giddy with anticipation of the shots I would get at the top. I took a couple of shots from the ground, three to be exact, to make sure I had the settings on the camera the way I wanted them. I heard a voice say 'Watch Your Step Please' so I looked down as I went to enter the gondola and smacked my head on the top of the door. The same voice sounded again and asked if I was alright. I nodded through the stars orbiting my head.
A different voice from behind me piped in with 'Didn't you see the sign that said Lower Your Head?" I turned and saw a six year old girl staring at me indignantly as she texted on her phone with one hand, read a map with the other hand and was tap dancing all while chewing gum at the same time. I rolled my eyes at her and said, Of course not, silly. How could I? The signs up high and I was watching my feet like the nice lady told me to do, so Thpppppptttttttttt!!!!!

Apparently I Was Pronouncing It Wrong
Unable to read just how much gas was, I walked in and asked the clerk, How much is the Butt Gas?
She gave me the dirtiest look and I was on my best behavior so I don't know what her problem was.
After a moment of hesitation she calmy said, Butte.
Excited she was making small talk with me I replied, Oh I agree, it's an absolute BEAUTIFUL day but I am in kind of a hurry so If you could just let me know how much the butt gas is, I can be on my way.
She glared at me. I could feel her eyes piercing me and through gritted teeth she replied once again, Butte.
I stood there for a moment trying to figure out what she was talking about when it dawned on me. She thought I was beautiful. Kind of surpising since I hadn't had a shower in three days and my four hears on my head all stood out to the left but I was flattered non the less.

No, Really Mam, Rigor Mortis Has Set In And Everything!
Ok, in my defense, there are NO signs anywhere that say 'please do not say this sentence' at Disneyland.
While riding on Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage I noticed a scuba diver in the water. He looked just like the last one in the same spot I saw the previous trip. So, I turned to the Captain of the ship and said, Excuse me Mam, is that Scuba Diver dead? Ten saucer eyed kids stared at me then stared at the Captain awaiting her answer. No sir, she said, he is just resting. Ten kids with sweat on there brows all sighed in relief.
The ride ended and I was not convinced. It HAD to be the same Scuba Diver. I flew off the submarine and ran to the end of the line to ride again.
We soon came across the same Diver in the same spot. Once again I turned to the Captain, Mam I said, I really think that Scuba Diver is dead. Fifteen saucer eyed kids with tears on there cheeks stared at me, then at the captain to await her anwser. No sir she said through gritted teeth, he is just eating lunch. Fifteen saucer eyed kids with wet cheeks all sighed with relief.
There is no way he was eating lunch, his sandwich would get soggy. The ride ended and I ran to the end of the line to ride once more. I had to be sure.
Once again we came across the diver in the same spot. I turned to the Captain who was glaring at me, Mam, THAT Scuba Diver is DEAD! Twenty sets of saucered eyed kids stared at me, then at the Captain awaiting her answer. No SIR he is NOT ... I cut her off, No, Really Mam, rigor mortis has set in and everything! SIR she hollered, you have made EVERY kid on this Sub cry! I looked around me and replied, Technically all the kids passed out about a minute ago, it's the adults crying now.
With that, they opened the hatch and tossed me out of the sub.

I found this postcard from around 65 million years ago. Apparantly Joes was All You Can Eat. Cavemen from around the world dragged there women folk by the hair for miles to eat here. They would eat for days using their women folks fancy dresses as napkins. Eventually they ate all the ribs leaving Joes and the Dinosaurs gone for good.
PS.
This is also around the time the first divorces started happening as the women folk started shaving there heads and waving there BBQ'd stained dresses around there head. Considering underwear hadn't been invented yet, the bikini wax soon came into existence around this time.
View on Black or I'll poke you in the eye with one of those ribs.

They Say We Dream In Black And White
Then how come I remember my dream last night begining with "Filmed In Technicolor"?
and don't ask what it was about. You all think I'm weird enough already.

Our Daily Challenge: Black and White or Sepia
(originally shot in color. Then I processed the HDR shot in black and white. Then I processed it through Niks Color Efex in sepia. Then I ran it through photoshop and made it black and white. Then ... this is why I'm not telling you my dream)
I Remember The Days When Cars Were Cars And Trucks Were Trucks
and if you stopped too hard, most of the vehicle kept going.

Woody, So Help Me You Better Not Shoot Me
Do you realize just how hard it is to shoot photo's of Disney's Pixar Play Parade? Every float and every character have water blasters shooting in every direction. It's raise the camera, shoot real quick, cover the camera, repeat.
So imagine how happy I was to see Woody come dripping along apparantly out of water. I raised my camera, got the shot, smiled at Woody, He smiled back, waved and blasted me in the eye with a thousand gallons of water!
That was a dirty trick Woody, that was a dirty trick.
View on black I'm a good aim and my water blaster is fully loaded

Now I Know My A B D's!
At this point in the process, it's much easier to just change the order of the A B C's.
This wouldn't have been so bad if
1, I wasn't singing the A B C's while taking the picture
and
2, I had noticed the order BEFORE I was uploading the shot to flickr.
and
3, It took me over an hour to get this processed the way I wanted it.
So yes, all in all, I took a photo for a challenge called 'In Order' out of order.
Don't judge me!
View on black or I will chuck the Rebel D Vinylmation at you!
Our Daily Challenge: In Order (DOH!)
I have an outtake of this shot on tumblr with the focus on the E ticket and a slightly different treatment. and YESSSSS, it's out of order too!
Stop Judging me!
