The Star Spangled Banner – U.S National Anthem

O say can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave

Liberty Kid’s Cartoon

I was the last generation to have good cartoons on TV. Today I am thankful for the show “Liberty Kid’s” that taught me as a young child to honor and respect the United States of America and our history.

Honor

From Middle English honourhonorhonur, from Anglo-Norman honourhonur, from Old French honor, from Latin honor.
Displaced Middle English menske (“honor, dignity among men”), from Old Norse menskr (“honor”) (see mensk).
The verb is from Middle English honourenhonuren (“to honor”).

  1. Recognition of importance or value; respect; veneration
  2. The state of being morally upright, honest, noble, virtuous, and magnanimous; excellence of character; the perception of such a state; favourable reputation; dignity.
  3. A token of praise or respect; something that represents praiseworthiness or respect, such as a prize or award given by the state to a citizen.

Start from scratch

Sure, you can study and learn how to make traditionally “good” art. But it’s time to throw everything I know about photography and art out the window

Forever playful

Life is too short to be serious all of the time. It’s better to laugh at life than to berate it.

Blur

I want to make blurrier photographs. More imperfection. Artistic photographs that abstract reality are the future

From earlier blurre, probably an alteration of blear, from Middle English bleren, from Old English blerian. Compare Scots blorebloar (“to blur, cover with blots”). More at blear.
