This is a photo I took many years ago of a special place in the neighborhood where I grew up. It used to have a great old barn that my friends and I went in one time when it was raining. It was full of loose hay and we had a lot of fun there. We had to climb a barbed wire fence and dodge our way around some unruly cows to get there, but it was worth it. The old barn eventually collapsed and this one was built in its place. It makes me think of this song; "40 Mile Town." Eric Johnson (From his Ah Via Musicom album 1990) YouTube: 40 Mile Town I got a way I can find you Down the Melody Ranch, I know you're there most everyday That's where you like to spend some time alone I need to talk to you Tell you what I feel like, warm hellos in the morning mist You're the magic that turns my heart around Seems to me, we're really living way too fast Oh when we should let the story of love last Sometimes I just want to go and drift away... And move on to some forty mile town I got a way I can see you Close my eyes and start to watch the ancient water flow A crystal dance that paupers know so well That's the way kings keep dreamin' Hold their head up high and live below forty mile skies The way that it can be in ocean towns Things of this world guess we never really own Oh that mountain falls and then we're goin' home We should try to make the best and get away... Work on towards our forty mile town Seems to me we really need to feel love more, Oh an ordinary smile opens the door Sometimes all I want to do is dream away... Wake up in some forty mile town

This is my first moon shot. I got a new lens and it's probably not strong enough for a real close-up, but it was pretty exciting just to get some detail. I had too turn my contrast down or it was just a bright ball of light up there.

I used the "High Key" setting in my camera. My first try with "High Key" photography (not sure if it is true "High Key" or not.) This beer stein/music box has been in my family since the 1950s. My parents got it when they were living in England. It was always on the mantel or book shelf while I was growing up and it was a treat when my mom would get it down and play it for us. I always loved the pretty tune that it played, but never knew what it was. Fast forward many years and my mom gives this stein to me as a gift since I was always so fond of it. I was re learning to play the flute at the time and one day I found this "Emperor Waltz" music in my flute book. Not having a lot of exposure to classical music I didn't recognize it. I thought "I'll try this one." As I started to work my way through the song I was pleasantly surprised to realize it was the tune from the old beer stein. A beautiful and famous waltz by Johann Strauss named Kaiser-Waltzer Op. 437. You can listen to it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=itbcAQ4jqXs And if you would like to watch the entire piece performed by the incredible André Rieu and his orchestra just click here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBLaMmxyibE
