I made up this rule (more of an idea actually) that I try to have at least three of the four elements in a landscape photo at the same time. If these clouds look a little funny it's because I added a background of water. So by cheating a little (hey, they're my rules so I can break them) I got my three elements; thus, the title of this photo.
Pass-A-Grille is an odd name, I'm sure there's a good explanation; maybe I'll find out one day. In the meantime this is a quiet community just south of St Pete's beach in Florida. I'm standing here at the southern end on a Thursday evening. Little did I realize a WWII bomb was found here under the sand and today as I write this the beach was evacuated and the bomb squad detonated it: so much for being a quiet little community.
Love locks on the Brooklyn Bridge. I wonder if the day will come when these have to be removed. As far as I can tell the bridge seems pretty sturdy and I don't think the extra weight even registers. Moving along, how cool would it be to leave a lock and then return several years later to see it again? A funny little quirk of how we roll. Sentimentality is a cool thing when it comes out like this me thinks.
