Black Hole Sunlight

2012-02-09T19:59:00.000-06:00

"Black holes are where God divided by zero." ~Stephen Wright

Grinch Tree

2011-12-20T09:39:00.000-06:00

Rockin' around the (negative) Christmas tree! The Grinch would love this.

Haz Ben

2011-11-17T13:11:00.000-06:00

The ghostly remains of Jack O Lantern, now known as Haz Ben. Retired with no benefits, he served his purpose well.

Happy Rakes

2011-11-05T17:19:00.000-05:00

It's that time of year. Raking leaves isn't a negative thing. It is hard work. I always get blisters. These look like they're glowing. Happy rakes.

Agent Skully

Haunted

2011-10-29T17:47:00.000-05:00

This gummy little ghost has been decorating my front door for a couple of weeks now. He looks like he’s on the outside, dying to come in. It’s almost that time now…

Scared Ya!

2011-10-19T20:24:00.000-05:00

Getting into the spirit of the season. Boo!

October Sky

2011-10-01T18:49:00.000-05:00

The negative color setting on my cell phone camera turns a gorgeous October deep blue sky with awesome clouds into something a bit threatening.

Got Light?

2011-09-01T16:48:00.000-05:00

These old crocks shine with a light of their own in the negative.

Got Teeth?

2011-08-26T23:58:00.000-05:00

Saw this bizarre creature at the Nashville Flea Market today. I have no idea what it's supposed to be, but it might make a nice Halloween decoration.

Little Kids Inside Big Hamster Balls On Water

2011-07-30T16:34:00.009-05:00

This is something you don't see every day--little kids rolling around inside huge hamster-type balls in a pool of water. And in the negative color setting, of course. Made for some strange pictures. When we were in Destin, Florida, earlier this month, Grandpeeps Shelby and Elijah had a total blast trying to run inside these things. I don't have to tell you how insane it looks and how the adults laughed themselves silly watching these kids playing in these big balls on the water. The strong wind blowing them around didn't help any, either. Good times.

Harbor

2011-07-17T22:44:00.003-05:00

At Fisherman's Wharf Seafood Restaurant in Destin, Florida, overlooking the harbor.

Feather Clouds

2011-06-06T20:44:00.003-05:00

An April sky--the negative clouds remind me of black bird feathers.

Bull

2011-05-19T18:20:00.001-05:00

Little Feet

2011-05-15T22:38:00.004-05:00

4 year old grandson Elijah's feet made for some interesting shadows in the negative.

Black Fire

2011-05-07T21:43:00.002-05:00

Roasting hot dogs and marshmallows over a campfire in the negative. Still tasty no matter what color the flames.

This Little Piggie

2011-04-26T23:05:00.001-05:00

Keep Calm And Be The Cheeseburger

2011-04-07T20:12:00.005-05:00

Grandson Elijah contemplates a bite from his cheeseburger in the negative during a recent lunch trip to McDonald's.

DandyLion

2011-03-25T20:32:00.003-05:00

Wouldn't these be weird all over your yard this spring and summer?

Cups Of Blue Butter

2011-03-09T15:41:00.003-06:00

These are growing in my yard. You probably have some, too.

Creepie Dollies

2011-03-06T21:08:00.006-06:00

In your closet. Don't leave the door cracked open. Especially at night. They're capable of anything....especially the one with the price tag. It's got nothing to lose.

Maybe It's Still There

2011-02-27T17:16:00.007-06:00

Remember after you went to bed when you were a little kid and the room was all dark and you kept hearing these weird noises and you never let your hand or your foot hang over the side of the bed because something might reach out from under the bed and grab it? Remember that? Yep, this is what was under your bed. It may still be there. Whatever you do, don't let your foot hang off the side.....ever.

Smoke Signals

2011-02-17T16:57:00.007-06:00

Took this looking out the window at Arby's at lunch time today and thought that stack of white clouds was pretty cool against a beautiful blue sky--turned out pretty cool in the negative, too.

Creepie Kiddie

2011-02-11T20:29:00.005-06:00

This pic turned out especially weird because grandson Elijah moved when I snapped it. Could be something out of a Stephen King novel.

Pastel Pizza

2011-02-01T18:45:00.004-06:00

I can't believe I ate this. And what are those little black specks?

Play At Your Own Risk, Kids

2011-01-18T18:33:00.005-06:00

I see all sorts of creepy shapes in the negative version of a McDonald's playground--a shark face in that round window on top and don't get me started on that slide....it might swallow you whole and never spit you out. I'm just sayin....

Fish Bowl

2011-01-08T19:42:00.005-06:00

If I lived in a fish bowl, I guess this is what it would look like, negatively of course.

Negative Snow

2010-12-28T16:23:00.001-06:00

Clean Sweep

2010-12-23T15:38:00.001-06:00

Earth Angel

2010-12-14T18:16:00.005-06:00

I took this picture at Cannonsburgh Village in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, a couple of summers ago. Kind of creepy, negatively speaking.

It's SO Cold That.....

2010-12-05T18:57:00.002-06:00

even the french fries have turned blue!

Time To Break Out The Leaf Blower

Mulder And Skully?

2010-10-28T21:59:00.002-05:00

Skulls as Halloween decor at the Nashville Flea Market this month.

Jeepers Creepers

2010-10-25T20:50:00.006-05:00

This was hanging out at the Nashville Flea Market last weekend. Looks like something that would hang out under my bed after dark when I was a kid.

Cream City

2010-10-21T18:19:00.003-05:00

The Cream City sign is a beloved icon in Cookeville, Tennessee. My grand kids love to hang out at the ice cream shop and eat the yummy ice cream. Nothing negative about that!

Make Like A Tree

2010-10-14T19:15:00.003-05:00

Now these would make for an interesting autumn.

Can You Hear Me Now?

2010-10-07T18:53:00.003-05:00

Of course, it's possible to hear without actually listening.

Life On Planet Punkin

2010-10-04T18:37:00.006-05:00

Aren't those ancient rivers that could have supported some life form back in the day? And lots of craters--probably full of three-headed critters. Planet Punkin. It could happen.

Bruised

2010-09-09T19:13:00.002-05:00

Poor leaf. Fell out of a tree and got some bruises.

Stones River Battlefield

2010-09-06T11:37:00.001-05:00

Kerry and I walked through the battlefield. Perfect weather for what I thought would be a 15 minute stroll ... turned into 5 miles! We had great time enjoying the beautiful day and surroundings!

Game On!

2010-09-04T23:05:00.002-05:00

Elijah's got game. Mario Brothers on his sister's Nintendo.

2010-08-28T13:27:00.001-05:00

Hubcaps hang from the ceiling at Chuy's Restaurant in Mufreesboro, TN. Yummy food!

Freaky Friday Flea Market Finds

2010-08-27T20:50:00.007-05:00

Looks like something out of an X-File episode. Alien invader. Trust no one.

These paperweights look like a lab experiment gone terribly wrong. Or maybe fish eggs. Cool stuff at the Nashville Flea Market. Even more fun in the negative color setting on a cell phone camera.

Lazy Cat

2010-08-23T11:13:00.001-05:00

Positively Sarah

2010-08-21T18:01:00.002-05:00

Am I Blue? Yes.

2010-08-10T18:27:00.003-05:00

Grandson Elijah has turned blue in the negative. Like a Smurf. If I told him that, he'd probably say, "What's a Smurf?"

E.T. Phoned Home ....

2010-08-04T20:36:00.003-05:00

.... now would somebody please come and pick him up? He's freaking me out here.

Pretty In Purple

2010-07-30T21:11:00.006-05:00

The stone path and the hydrangea turned pretty shades of purple in the negative.

Happy Meal!

2010-07-27T19:11:00.006-05:00

Happy weirdness at Mickey D's! The box is always more fun to play with. But the fries and apple dippers are yummy!

"We All Float Down Here"

2010-07-22T22:01:00.001-05:00

Ghost Ships And Pelicans

2010-07-21T22:44:00.005-05:00

Ghost ships (fishing boats actually) line the harbor in Destin, Florida, just outside Fisherman's Wharf Restaurant. The fourth boat from the left was named Twilight.

Brown Pelicans turn ghostly in the negative as they fly over the harbor. Wish my cell camera had a zoom lens.

Gulf, Gazers, Gators

2010-07-19T22:29:00.007-05:00

The Gulf in the negative--not too inviting even without the tar balls.

Kelly and Holly watching the Gulf skimmers sail by--back and forth every day. They must be doing a good job. No oily water or tar balls. Only sea weed. Wish they would skim that!

Florida Gators! On sale at Alvin's in Destin. Gitcha one! These don't bite.

rANdoM saTUrDay

2010-07-10T16:48:00.006-05:00

Buddy Cat looks like a painting here. You really get the effect of a negative picture when photographing a black and white subject--his coloring is totally reversed from black and white to white and black.

Looking out my front door this afternoon. Green is purple. Maybe this is what bizarro world looks like.

Buddy Cat waits--is she going to stay out there all day, taking pictures?? I need food! Funky looking kitty. And maybe a stairway to heaven in the background. Have a positively grand rest of the weekend, y'all!

Finding The Path

2010-06-30T21:07:00.006-05:00

My industrious hubby Neil laying the stone for a pathway in the front yard. Nothing negative about his hard work.

Even the sweetest grandson looks creepy in the negative.

Vampire Kitty

2010-05-07T01:20:00.001-05:00

Frankie Cat likes to play with his brother Smokey Cat.

House

2010-04-30T23:29:00.002-05:00

Looks kinda creepy here. Enter at your own risk.

Tree Seeds

2010-04-17T16:57:00.001-05:00

They remind me of wings. They sure can fly! They flutter from the trees and land EVERYWHERE!

Daffydil

2010-03-14T21:15:00.003-05:00

flowers always look creepy in the negative--Daffydil indeed!

Ready To Pounce

2010-03-01T14:08:00.002-06:00

Our normally yellow striped Eddie Kitty is all black in the negative and patiently waiting for something to pounce on.

John Mayer

2010-02-13T00:34:00.003-06:00

Kerry, Sarah, and I went to John Mayer's concert in Nashville. We sat in the nose bleed section and loved every minute of it! He looks really tiny standing there in the spot light. Great time!!!

They're Grate!

2010-02-06T17:16:00.002-06:00

I like old stuff. For some reason, old rusty graters are way cool. Well, for some people.

Heads!

2010-01-23T19:24:00.004-06:00

Kelly took this picture with her Droid phone with an application she downloaded called FxCamera using the SymmetriCam mode. This is Shelby and Elijah Myers, having more heads than people should be allowed to have.

Politics As Usual

Who Lives In A Pineapple ..... ?

2010-01-05T19:40:00.003-06:00

I didn't find this under the sea. It was resting comfortably with the other pineapples at Sam's a while back.

Mellow Mushroom

2009-12-31T19:11:00.001-06:00

Do You Have Splinters In The Windmills Of Your Mind?

2009-11-23T19:58:00.000-06:00

That's a joke from the old Carol Burnett show when they were doing the Eunice and Momma characters. This picture was taken in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, a while back at the Cannonsburgh Village. The sky looks like it's about to swallow something.

Indian Corn

2009-11-18T11:14:00.003-06:00

A Happy Harvest to one and all!

2009-11-08T21:22:00.004-06:00

Found this collection of shark teeth at the Nashville Flea Market recently.
