Flickr: Photos from The Library of Congress

http://www.flickr.com/photos/library_...

The U.S. LoC has put a few thousand photos up on Flickr, asking the locals to tag and comment on the images. This is (IMO) an exceptionally cool and modern way to go about the business of archiving history.

On the Deck

Battleship

First, thanks to ZaD for creating the group; I was just browsing the neighborhood when I saw that she had created the B/W Photo group and thought I'd throw my lot in. So, to start, this is one that I really like but that I didn't feel was quite right for my portfolio.

This was taken a few years ago in the port of Nagoya, in central Japan. My wife and I had gone down to visit some friends and ended up taking a tour of the harbor. Part of the tour included a trip through a decomissioned ice breaker - this is the deck.

Anyway, please feel free to comment, and thanks again ZaD!

By the by, I am looking to replace the group icon photo. I used another of my paintings as a placeholder until I can either make, or acquire a more suitable image.

If you have an image you'd like to submit for our group icon, please send me a private message and we'll talk.

Thanks,

Smiley

Table Under the Tree

The season I love most is rapidly approaching and the air is beginning to chill. The leaves on the trees are putting up a last, gallant, display of color before sucumbing to the inevitable and I often walk to the park to applaud their spectacular fall. I take some time to move the corpses from their resting place on the table, before sitting and writing, or sketching, or merely looking, watching, waiting while time flows by.
