A Sea Of Green

We have this thing at our church, we call it New Horizons. We cook, we decor, we bring entertainment and drinks, and the senior citizens, to include catholic, baptists, jews, evangelicals, just have to do one thing, show up.

They bring themselves and each other for a little soiree, to socialize, mingle, exchange ideas and have a great time for three good hours or so, or until there hearts desire. Today, it just happens to be St. Patrick’s Day and one of the member’ 90th birthday. Yes, she is ninety years younger and before the day was over, a little sip of the good ole Irish Coffee to brighten their day.

Are you feeling lucky yet? Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Picture Of The Day, Street Style

Me: Hello. Excuse-me sir, do you mind if I take your picture?
Him: No, go ahead!
(Smiling. More smiling. Smiling…)

Saw him outside of the supermarket where he works, arranging carts under the blazing sun. It wasn’t his beautiful smile, mind you he never stopped, or pleasing persona that draw me to him but his invention, the object on his head, the make-do hat.

I thought it was cute, creative, original, one of a kind, the reason why I wanted to photograph him. I mean, anything to beat the heat, protect one from UV rays even if it involves cardboard boxes cut outs, I am in.  Love it!

Shhh, don’t try this at home. Yes, it was hot. His face says it all.

Where are my manners. Forgot to ask him for his name.

Find Your Rainbow

We were visiting a friend and right before he got into the car, the rain began to pour and this huge, fully-arced, bright rainbow appeared. A few seconds later, a second bow appeared above it — fainter but still a complete arc. Yes, it is a prismatic optical effect and always visible to those with the right perspective. So what? It is divine and always spiritual!
