Just for fun, here's another of the series of 'Electric Ghost' pictures I took during the corner fireworks display last night, just a minute or so after the previous one posted. For some reason this series really made me think of the 'Starchild' sequence of the classic Kubrick film, 2001: A Space Odyssey. I just keep hearing that Keir Dullea voice saying ... "It's full of stars!" And the human presence is even more tenuous in this shot, I think ... there's a gaping hole in that universe, but it's just not entirely visible ... Figures, those humans always find somehow to get in the way!Saturday, July 05, 2008
Just For Fun ... Another 'Electric Ghost' Shot

Hi Gail,
Glad you liked it! Those were fun to do, and learn something new on the camera at the same time! Too bad you missed the big shows, but we never go to them either ... too many hassles. Besides our little corner always seems to congregate with some fun stuff, the example here is but one thing that blew up that night.
No injuries, no mess, it was all cleaned up quickly afterwards, and back to normal now. :-)
