Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Sunday Reruns - Boy Meets Camera

It's Sunday again, and you know what THAT means!?! It's time for Sunday reruns!!! Thanks so much to Chari over at Happy to Design for hosting this meme, "Sunday Favorites".

What in Kyle's World - - -
(First posted 12/13/2007)

Are these things?

The other night Kyle, our youngest son, unleashed his creative little soul with my camera. (When I say "little soul" I am only referring to him as my youngest, not saying he barely has a soul, nor that he is still a baby - - - just MY baby.)

I think he made some pretty fun pictures. But what are these items???

Wanna play? Make a guess and submit it as a comment under this post. Photo A and B are of the same thing, just taken with slightly different techniques. Photo C is something else entirely.

I think A is my favorite, what's yours?

Photo A

Photo B

Photo C

podso said...: C is something from the top looking down, as I see a chair or table leg...maybe a shutter but probably not. The first two all I could think of is jello. but again, I'm sure that's not it!; March 20, 2010 at 9:00 PM
Diann said...: Hum, the first one looks like a gummy worm. The other two, I just don't know.; March 20, 2010 at 9:10 PM
Janean said...: first ones...obviously lights being moved as he takes the photo (am i not brilliant?)

the second, a guitar neck - frets???; March 20, 2010 at 9:11 PM
Flory said...: my fave is A, I guess the cam was being moved slightly as he takes the lights... looks like neon lights inside a shop? just a wild guess=))

Julie Harward said...: I have no idea...but I just love them all...talented son I think! Come say hi :D; March 20, 2010 at 10:36 PM
Treasia Stepp said...: What a cute post! The first is fireworks and the other is a neck of a guitar. Whatever that part is called. LOL.; March 21, 2010 at 3:00 AM
Anonymous said...: Boy this is tough. The first 2 I have no idea but I think others are right on the guitar for number 3.; March 21, 2010 at 9:44 AM
Chari at Happy To Design said...: Hi Girlfriend...

Ohhh...how fun! I'm always up for a "guessing game"!

Okay...I have to admit that I don't have a clue about what Photo A and B is...other than moving the camera while taking a photo of lights??? Hehe! I think that Photo C is a close up of the neck of a guitar...the frets! Hmmm...that's my story and I'm stickin' to it! Hehe! I think that your Kyle had lots of fun...whatever the subject matter is! Great photos...love that you shared them with us today for Sunday Favorites! Ohhh...I do hope that you're going to tell us the answers!!!

Have a super Sunday, Darlin'!

Chari at Happy To Design said...: Hey Girlfriend...

My honey is sitting here and he guesses that the first two photos are of traffic! Is there a prize for guessing right? Hehe!

Love ya,
Chari; March 21, 2010 at 11:10 AM
Maureen said...: Do tell.....; March 21, 2010 at 12:11 PM
Angie said...: All brilliant! I think A and B might be insects trails csught in light at night. Or maybe the tracks made by sparklers (little hand held fireworks) when you wave them about. Strange colouring though.

I was stumped by C until I cribbed from other people - guitar frets, of course! Now why didn't I rhink of that?; March 21, 2010 at 5:31 PM
Wanda Lee said...: HELLO THERE MY FELLOW,'SUNDAY FAVORITES' PARTICIPANT! WHAT FUN! IGUESS I'LL ALSO GO WITH TRAFFIC LIGHT FORM HEADLIGHTS ANF THE THIRD BEING A GUITAR..,

CHEERS AND HUGS FROM WANDA LEE @ THE PLUMED PEN; March 21, 2010 at 5:41 PM
Anonymous said...: Well, since I spent yesterday looking at Hog panel, of course that is what C looks like to me. Why it is in the living room...who am I to judge.
I think A & B are a flapping blanket with fringe.

Still cold here in WI so thoughts are slow.; March 21, 2010 at 6:11 PM
Nancy said...: Kids ... gotta love them ... especially the babies in the fam. My guess for A & B would be Christmas tree lights; photo C must be the neck of a guitar.
Life is never boring in your house ... how fun.; March 22, 2010 at 12:36 PM
Troy said...: The top two are how it looks to stare out the hospital window at the street outside, right after they give you your morphine, but before you fall asleep. I'm not sure how he captured them, but I have seen that way too many times not to recognise it when I see it.

And of course, like so many others have said, the thirds one is a guitar.; March 23, 2010 at 1:03 AM
