Thirds Blow

Ricco was still recovering from the massive honey bee smothering that took place yesterday. The bees pretty much massaged every part of his body and his vision is a little blurry today.

At first, Naomi thought there was a fire on the horizon. But, it didn't smell like smoke. Then, Naomi realized what it was. The stench of politics!

Trolling (t) (B/W)

Roberto really got a kick out of the myth that vampires can't handle daylight. Add to that all the wannabe vampires, well, it sure made for some good feeding during the day and left his nights free for bingo.

The above is a fictitious story. Vampires really don't play bingo.

Dead Drop (t)

It was a little windy the day I shot this in The Burying Point cemetery. I kept waiting for headstones to start flying, but, I had to settle on a few leaves flittering down to lie with the dead.

Got It Covered (t)

Shari and I are in the same space, but, usually try to shoot different perspectives or objects. You know, even if we did shoot the same thing, the end result is going to be different.

Just For You

Socrates was exceptionally happy with his Black Friday purchase. Little did he know that he would be the one to sample the quality of the elixir. As he found out, the elixir was all it was advertised to be!

Wise Decisions

Eloise was extremely disappointed after using the miracle wrinkle-removing cream she'd purchased from a door-to-door salesman.

Lucky

Lucille Maganti was one of the lucky ones. Lucky, if you consider having your arms and legs hacked off and your body nailed to a board, lucky. Of course, the alternative was to be burned at the stake!
