Fw: [MC74 and Friends] Pointy but not so pointy

Dear MC, BT and friends,

Thank you sooo much for your creative inspiration throughout the many pics and collages!

Here are my simple contribution for the pointy theme, they are taken on my last trip to Angkor-Siêm Reap, Cambodia last December.

Spring is finally in the air (the snow is melting),   have to hit the slopes as long as the  white stuff is still around 

Have a nice wkend,

TD Caro 

Fw: Fwd: my additional entries for POINTY

Dear Bi Twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,
Here are my additional entries for pointy things from my very, very long three and 1/ 2 days weekend trip to DC, where Mai Han had her Volley Ball tournament.
I did not have a chance to visit any monument, museum, nor hang out with our MC74 friends in DC. I never watched so many volley ball games in my life!
I had no choice but to practice taking sports photos, lots and lots of them.

 In case you wondered how the photos came out, here are the comments I received from Mai Han and her friend after browsing the photos stored in my camera:
Mai Han: Lots of photos of feet, but...those were from the girls in the other team, Mom!
Sara: Why did you take so many of those?
me:  uh... I took them just in case our future theme is sneakers, and the girls in the other team wore pink socks, Mai Han.
Sara: (politely) Interesting...
Mai Han: That's so weird, Mom!

Any way, in between, I dutifully managed to take a few photos of pointy things, the first one is a huge star with its pointy corners and as a bonus a pointy arrow in the middle, hung from the ceiling in the Convention Center, and the second one is a photo of star shaped lights in a restaurant.

Goodnight and have a nice Wednesday

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my entries for Graffiti

Dear BiTwin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

Here is to "mo*? hang\" for GRAFFITI, and hoping that we will receive lot of entries from regular and MIA PNEHs, painters and poets.
I could not find any graffiti near my office and came back after an hour long of walking around many blocks at lunch time today, with an empty camera. So I had to do lots of searching in my messy folders (I know my little sis will jump in and make some comments here:-)) to find these graffiti which were seen:
1- on a truck, near the NY Public Library, Manhattan
2- in Bruxelles
3- on the road to Charlotte Amalie, St Thomas
4- along the railroad, outside of Bruxelles
5- along the railroad, in Montreal
(no.3,4,5 were taken while the car and the train were in motion, so the photos were not very sharp - sorry)


Goodnight and have a nice Thursday

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] entry for Pointy theme

BiTi, EmCi,

Here's a slightly different take on the line "tay em lạnh để trong tình mình ấm", more fitting for the Pointy theme.:-)

Thank you, BiTi, for the collaboration.  A.Vinh thought the dash was an inspired touch; I told him I can't take credit for that or anything to do with the picture!

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] super late entry for Heart theme

BiTi, EmCi,

Here it is.  Sorry for holding up progress.  To BiTi's rhetorical question about EmCi's pic, "Where is the key", the answer could very well be, "There isn't one." :-)

Thank you, big sis, for letting me use an utterly romantic pic to express not so romantic sentiments.

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my additional entry for POINTY

Dear twin BiTi, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum Friends,

This entry could fit into both themes Hearts and Pointy things: a picture of an iron gate I saw in downtown Lancaster, PA.
The design of the gate reminded me of the following verses from the song Chi? vi\ em ye^u anh by the songwriter Tra^n\ Quang Lo^c."..Tình yêu như mũi tên, khi đã rời khỏi nó
Chỉ còn biết căng mình
Lao nhanh về phía trước..."

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my second entry for POINTY THINGS

Thank you BiTi Twin. I love your pointy shots of the famous buildings of NYC. I remember where we stood when you took the photo of the Chrysler building, I have a few that are a bit similar, and I bet HL has one too. :-)
Here is a collage of more pointy architectural details which I took today.
Goodnight

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my second entry for POINTY THINGS

 Dear Em Ci Twin,

I remember the cups well but my photo doesn't come anywhere

close to your beautiful shot with the reflection of the pointy thing :-)

Here are a couple of other pointy shots from the trip that I love.

Xos,

BT

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my second entry for POINTY THINGS

Dear twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets and Forum friends,

here is my second one, also from my photo folders. The building with a pointy rooftop was seen through the glass walls of another building.
(HL and BiTi will surely remember the paper cups).
Goodnight

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] My entry for "pointy"

 Dear Bi Twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,
 I am taking a break from watching the Grammy Awards where my favorite female singer Adele just won Album of the year, to go through my photo folders, looking for something pointy to submit.
 Here is my first entry, my favorite pointy point of reference, the roof of the Chrysler Building.

My entry for "pointy"

Dear Ci Twin and sister and PNEH friends,

To illustrate what I meant by pointy here's a couple of photos

I took this afternoon.  Ahem, for those of you have more 

imaginative minds ... please do share with us your interpretation

be it sensical, logical (like mine hi hi), artistic or freudian etc... :-)

Have a good week ahead,

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my additional entry for HEART

Heart, chocolate, wine, orchids, red, pink ... explosive combination, don't you think?

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my additional entries for HEART

Dear Bi Twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and forum friends,

In pursuit of hearts, after dropping off Mai Han at a birthday party in Manhattan, I took a short walk along Madison Avenue around 60th Street for a couple of blocks, where all the posh stores were with their beautiful window displays. There were hearts in different sizes, colors and shapes. I took a few photos to share with you.
Then on the way back to pick up Mai Han, our car passed by 34th Street where the department store Macy's was. As the car had to slow down due to traffic, I was able to quickly snap some photos of its windows displays, as well as its ads.
 
Here they are, the hearts I collected from today's hunting trip:
1- the D&G heart beautifully dressed up in white lace (there were 3 hearts on display, but this one has the reflection of a mannequin couple wearing white from the store on the opposite side of the street)
2- the suspended red heart, looking like a gigantic human one, in display at a jewelry store. 
3- Macy's hearts, looking like butterflies.
4- Macy's ad

Goodnight from be^n Bo*\ So^ng
