Blurry Bridge

Blurry-Artsy-Cool
I’m playing with a new tool… Picasa. So, here’s a mini-slide show of pictures I took of stage rehearsal in Salt Lake. I chose the blurriest ones, because I thought they actually were the most interesting.

Fire in the dryer
This picture is an old picture I took on my cell phone of the dryer we use at the laundromat around the corner (I finally found out how to get my cell pics onto my computer!).
Do you see that red rectangular thing in the middle? Yep, that’s fire! The dryer heat is apparently created by a fire chamber in the back and controlled by a little vent that opens and closes depending on how much heat is needed… When the door opens, we can see the flames!!! When Justin and I saw that, we were in shock!
Is it just me, or does look like a 19th century dryer mechanism? I wonder if somebody’s in the back with a shovel feeding the furnace with coals…

A Walk in the Park
Yesterday, Justin and I took a walk around Golden Gate Park’s Arboretum and played with the camera…
This one is the perfect computer desktop background. Abstract. Round.
This one was fun laying down under the flowers and having people think I’m a pro :)
The center of some plants have fascinating patterns.

Perfect harmony
Aurelie (my sister) and her daughter Luna… I want to stare at this picture for hours.

Fisherman’s Wharf wonders
San Francisco offers many cool sights by just walking around, making turns and stumbling upon stuff…
So, yesterday, I took advantage of my last free afternoon (I’m temping at Federated Media…yey!…just gotta beware for the Justin-Stephanie overload!) to take a long city walk from Nob Hill to Pier 39, longing the water and grabbing the Powell-Hyde cable car back. I had a lot of fun!
On the left, is a street corner I thought had interesting architecture and colors.
Below left, the good ol’ seals at Pier 39 with their buddies the seagulls.
Below right, the Fisherman’s Wharf crab stands (with not too many crabs that day…)
Weird man dressed up as a dog, owning a few dogs looking like his suit and taking pictures of people with the dogs…WEIRD!
Above, a spray painting artist…incroyable! Below, some freestylin’ break dancers.
Time to go back home…what a great little impromptu adventure!

A photographer I should have discovered a long time ago…
I’m a fan of pictures with jumps. I feel like the only ones I’ve really been in touch with are my own and Lois Greenfield’s.
But man, this one is probably the most amazing one ever!
It’s called “dali-atomicus”, taken in 1948.
And according to neatorama.com, “it took six hours, 28 jumps, and a roomful of assistants throwing angry cats and buckets of water into the air to get the perfect exposure.”
Poor cats.

Weekend d’enfer!
(English speaking people, please refer to Justin’s post… I need to feed my french crowd)
Franchement le weekend dernier etait tres sympa! On s’est fait une petite soiree a la maison avec quelques amis et on a joue au DDR (Dance Dance Revolution). Ce jeu est trop drole, specialement avec beaucoup de monde autour. On a mange sur le pouce, mais on a fait des bonnes petites choses…. J’ai fait un cake aux olives, sans olive mais avec du jambon, des champignons et du fromage. Mmmm. J’ai aussi refait un saucisson au chocolat, mais cette fois sans marshmallows et des noisettes a la place, et puis avec un peut de barre praline importe de France. Grand succes! Justin a fait son pistou decompose, son hummus et des petits legumes grilles. On s’est casse le ventre. Mais on s’est tellement amuse, qu’on a oublie de prendre des photos… mais notre amie Joy en a pris.
Le lendemain, il faisait un temps splendide, alors on a fait une randonnee depuis le Golden Gate Bridge jusqu’au Cliff House.
Justin a fait une carte de la rando si vous voulez voir…
Donc voici quelques photos de nous par un temps magnifique, froid mais pas venteux (exceptionnel!).
Une vue pas comme les autres du pont celebre.
Probablement le meilleur endroit pour avoir une petite conversation avec son pere.
Les ombres, c’est toujours amusant!
On se croyait presque a Hawaii avec un coucher de soleil d’enfer! Rouge!!!

Like puff pastry … Comme un mille feuilles…
Guess what this is?
Devinez ce que c’est?
It’s our skin!!! And you know what that blue thing in the middle is?…A sweat cell!
C’est notre peau!!!! Et vous savez ce qu’est le truc bleu au milieu?… Une cellule de transpration!
You can see more throught the eyes of science.
Vous pouvez en voir plus aux “yeux de la science“
Fascinating!!
Fascinant!!
