Floating Glasses Illusion Photo - What's the deal with the different size lenses? Grow Your Mind as You Look at This Oddity - A song about a Friend

2010-07-22T08:48:00.000-07:00

Time for a song. Like most of the Soul Amp songs it's an odd one:

It seems the story of life is to just keep plugging away. I've watched my mom do it. And my dad did it to. Therein lies the beauty of life. Not giving up and continuing to grow and enjoy what we have around us, right? Well that and beer (in moderation). That's what I think. You might think something different, but maybe that's what the freaky song above is mostly about I think as well as dealing with what people think of you including your friends and family.... and well you might find the following two photos strange to look at (don't let them freak you out too much)...I'll tell you how I did it sometime:

I took this composite image in Colorado just before a bunch of tornado warnings hit the area. It's a vertical composite of 10 images. It's weird, I know. But enjoy and rock out to the newish song about not giving up... 'cause we can't stand it when you do.

2010-06-11T06:48:00.000-07:00

Here's a wonderful new song by the Ampers of the Soul 'cause some might call this a Love Song... and that's the way I'm rolling it:

Love is the Beat mp3

Ah, spring. Here's it is in June and we're still in the midst of it here in the WI. Summer is just around the corner, maybe. You never know up here. These we taken in April of this year. It's supposed to be warm this weekend, but rainy rainy rainy. Alas... enjoy what we get...cause the beat is in you! =)

Weird Chinese Floating Bird Object Photo - Strange bird sculpture floating in an odd room - Bird Sculpture Staring at you - The Sha La La La La Song

2010-06-08T06:22:00.000-07:00

Here's that weird and wonderful Sha La La La La song from the irrepressible Soul Amp:

Same...Sha La La La La

So sorry to be absent for so long. I think I just went into a bit of a creative slump. I hope to get back to music as well. But here's a couple of odd photos (with more to come) of a Chinese bird sculpture or object or whatever it might be called (it's very cool...it opens) that appears to be floating in midair. It's a little trick to get it to float (no I didn't toss it into the air)...I'll tell you how in a later blog (I have more of these floating object pics to post). I think they are a bit mind bending, but that's just me. I figure they fit the song. Enjoy.

WARNING Gruesome Photos to Follow...of smashed finger of clarinet player - Imasges Smashed Finger in Car Door of Artist Need Stiches but Recovering

2010-06-08T02:26:00.000-07:00

Here's another story of a smashed finger contributed by a reader named Elizabeth who is a clarinet player:

howdy
glad to see your fingernail grew out all right
im not so sure mine will be a whole finger wide
as i split the matrix where the nail gets made
its growing in kinda weird and the 'disolving' stitches
are in the way of progress
alas..at week 5.5
dang car doors!

i did this to myself, popped it like a grape
broke the bone and the nail came right off
i think the open wound took the agony of the pressure build up away
because once the lidocaine wore off it wasn't too agonizing!

cheers
elizabeth

now for some clarinet!

Thank you Elizabeth. Please keep us posted on your nail's condition. I hope it improves.

Here's Elizabeth's pics (again, warning, they're pretty gruesome):

Here's all the posts documenting my own smashed finger saga (which completely pales in comparison to Elizabeth's smashed finger):

Vertical composite image. Goose prints in snow leading to an American Flag at a Toyato dealership in a haze of pollution...And a Strange New Song

2010-03-29T05:26:00.001-07:00

Here's an odd song for you. What's it about?

Same...Sha La La La La an mp3

I took this composite image from our office window and I found it odd enough to post. It's a goose's foot prints leading to an American flag at a Toyato car dealership in a haze of pollution (of course, the goose is not really walking all the way there... it's an illusion). But how symbolic eh? It's in a vertical format because it's a composite of four images. I took four pics one right after another leaving enough for Photoshop to stitch together. Be sure to scroll down. I hope you dig it and the song.

Photos of natural ice sculptures at sunrise on a calm day at sunrise on Lake Michigan...and a Sha La La La La Song for ya!

2010-02-10T09:20:00.000-08:00

Here's a newish song that asks you to be tolerant of others and express yourself as you feel is right without worrying about what the world expects. If people are hurting you, then don't worry about them...that's what I say. Oh oh, I explained my song. I really don't like doing that. Really, when I wrote, I had no idea what it meant, but now that's what it means to me. Interpret it as you like. It's just a silly song:

Same...Sha La La La La

For your visual perusal here are photos of ice on Lake Michigan in early Spring (so called, if you will...any sun for us is Spring around here):

It's sunny today in the WI, but dang it's cold. (I'll have some ice lake pics to show you all soon...but later)

OK, so enough snow and freeze for a little bit. Here's some cactus flower pics from sunny Arizona. Hey, ML, what type of cactus is that anyhow? I know I should know. Anyhow, enjoy the pics

AND

Here's a crazy love song in the "Soul Amp Style":

There Once Was (A Sunny Way to Go) mp3

These were taken in May of 2009 while we were visiting a friend. It looks like the sun is exploding out of the catcus flower, huh?

Shove Me All You Love

These were taken from Lincoln Memorial Drive in Milwaukee. It's Bradford Beach with the snow fences still up and a cool street light and some leafless trees:

Photo of frozen shoe buried in dirt and shells on Lake next to a piece of ice that looks surprisingly like the state of Texas... Song - Big Fat Blaze

The photo below inspired the lyric (also for those brave enough, you can find precursors to this song if you look around for it on the soul-amp.com site..they are very strange instrumentals... quite odd...full of mistakes...more so than this version of the song):

Big Fat Blaze

So here's the frozen shoe buried in dirt and shells on Lake Michigan next to a piece of ice that looks surprisingly like the state of Texas. (Of course, if it had looked like Elvis or Jesus, I would have had to take it home and put in the fridge and people would have made pilgrimages to my house):

Here's a tragic winter romance song for you all about the ill-fated romance of Johnny and Jenny (poor Johnny... Jenny seems to be doing all right):

The Ballad of Jenny and Johnny mp3

It took me a bit to get around to posting these images (and I have a few more posts of them coming up), but here's some of the December blizzard (12/8/2009) images from Wisconsin 2009. It turned out to be not as big a deal in Milwaukee storm-wise, but it snapped off one of my trees (be boom, but no damage to the house). It's just amazing how little snow they got at the lake, while inland it was pretty good dumping. Enjoy the pics and music!

First, have a listen (if you like and you're in the mood to try something new)... yep, it's strange, but is it cool-strange?

Shine On mp3

Here's more late autumn forest pics in moon light like the ones posted earlier today. I dig the picnic table that got crushed by the tree. The exposures were about a minute (about the time it took me to run around with the flashlight).

Here's a song for a moonlit forest in autumn:

The Monster's Monster mp3

These photos were taken in Greenfield park at the end of autumn. The leaves have all fallen and a 3/4 moon is out to cast shadows. I used a flashlight to paint the scene. If I hadn't told you that, would you have figure out where the lights on the ground were coming from?

Photo of catching autumn maple leaf with hand in the sun. Leaves in the wind in a purple/pink sunrise with swirling trees overhead...A Searching Song

2009-11-18T09:28:00.000-08:00

Here's an odd confessional/seeking/searching type song. You might like it, you might hate it. Not sure how I feel about it, but it sure the heck matches the pics... you have to at least agree about that... right? So take it out for a listen:

Too Much To Say mp3

I know this next photo is a cliche....so what?... it fires my spark plugs with the sun and all that... and it was pain to take (lots of trial and error). (You try holding a camera with one hand and catch a leaf with the other...=) ) Besides the tree shooting to the sky in the background is also pretty interesting.

But I bet a lot of you like it. Seems kind of hopeful, doesn't it? So am I catching the leaf, or am I throwing it? Right? shhhhh....don't tell anyone... I'm throwing it.

I think the next two pics are even better. Leaves floating in the air at sunrise as the trees spin above. I think I may have to try that it again. It came out quite nicely.).
