The Jewel Box at Night – Forest Park, St. Louis
“leaves madly twirling” – Autumn Haiku
leaves madly twirling
as if to make up steps; dance
of a late autumn
The Land of Fire Breathing Dragons – Wood River Refinery
Each time I drive home from my brother’s home late at night I want to take this shot. Last night, the sky was misty and spitting rain and my camera sat on a the front seat next to me. So I pulled over alongside of the highway, turned on my hazards, grabbed my extra shirt to serve as a tripod, and sat my camera on it on top of the roof of my car.
I am pretty pleased with the result. Be sure to zoom in to see the details, including the serendipitously appropriate “Gas” sign.
If one is brown and bearded, perhaps one should limit the number of times one might be found on the side of a highway photography refineries (I’m just saying), but I would love to shoot this just once more, on a moonlit winter night when there is a thin blanket of snow on the ground.
“at long last, fall leaves” – Autumn haiku
at long last, fall leaves
begin to tinge the trees like
flame licking paper
