Fw: [MC74 and Friends] My entry for - SHADOWS







Dear Em Ci Twin and friends,

  Here are some shadows caught on my walk this morning.  I was being extra careful this morning as last week I almost stepped on a big yellow snake ( Russ thinks it's *just* a rattle snake, that does not bite .. yeah right...) 
I almost brought his bibi gun along, I am  SO glad I brought the little camera instead !  Look what I caught a glimpse of, after scrutinizing the SHADOWS of the wild grass (pic 1) the side of the walkway (2)... I suddenly saw *my* beautiful crane in the SHADOW of the oak tree.  As I moved, he moved, so I tried to be very still .. and voila` there he is captured *live* so to speak, for you to enjoy.
I hope you are not sick of the photos of my walk, they made the 3.5 miles so much more fun for me hi hi
Have a great Saturday whatever you have planned,
BT

Subject: [MC74 and Friends] Announcement to PNEHs - Theme for next week - SHADOWS

Dear fellows PNEH, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

We hope you have good weather wherever you are so you could all enjoy the spring outdoor and for the PNEHs to take lots of photos of SHADOWS for the upcoming theme.
Of course pictures of shadows taking indoor with your own hand puppets shadows on the walls are perfectly fine too, as long as you could do the shadows and take the photos at the same time without the help of the tripod :-).

For those who have not submitted entries or would like to contribute more photos for the current theme, MARKET is still ongoing till next Friday night. so you do have time to go browse the markets this weekend.
We can hardly wait to see the images of markets painted in Thu Huong's beautiful aquarelles and wonder how M-U will describe love in the market in her verses.

Have fun shooting photos of shadows, and don't be afraid of your own :-)

Have a nice and peaceful weekend everyone

BiTi and EmCi

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




Dear Bi Twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,
I am submitting some more collages of photos taken at Hell's kitchen Flea Market, Manhattan for
MARKET. One can easily spent a few hours there looking (in my case, taking photos) at the widely varied assortment of wares, from Kenyan necklaces to Tibetan beaded jewelry, to antique saddle, pink velvet art deco armchair, to crystal chandeliers and crystal adorned leather bangles, etc...
In the first collage, the vintage clothes, scarves, hats are from the
The Store With No Walls and the owner was the cheerful man with the stack of dollars bills in his hands. He volunteered to model for me to my delight and wanted to pay me with one of the vintage hats from his shop - it would have been my first and without a doubt, last earning from my career as a PNEH. The beaded necklaces and the big necklace and belt on the black mannequin were from the store called Tibet Jewelry. The lady owner was so sweet she let me stand there a long time to take photos of the statues, stones and jewelry.

Got to go now. I have to read my camera manual (no more procrastination!!!) in preparation for my first photography class tomorrow. It's a field composition workshop. I am going with Mai Han and  am really looking forward to it. My instructor is a young man whose field is documentary photography (some of his photos are quite heavy stuff. All of the photos, except pictures of rock music concerts, carry some sort of social messages). Mai Han read his bio and said he is a year younger than my son Chuong. We will be walking around Grand Central Station. I cannot wait to learn a lot from my instructor, and have some nice bonding time with... (sorry BiTi and little sis, it's not what you think. I know what you gonna say :-)) Mai Han.
