Colbert South Carolina Registration Form

Stephen Colbert of 'The Colbert Report' is putting South Carolina on the map. Oh wait, it is already on the map. Well, he is bringing South Carolina to forefront of the American presidential race.

He is collecting signatures to enable his placement on the South Carolina ballet. The website http://www.colbert08.org/ has Colbert's 2008 South Carolina Presidential Primary Petition. Registered voters in South Carolina can download the form, fill it out, and mail in the signatures. This is important guys. Colbert really must be an option for favorite son on the South Carolina ballets. Do your part now (if you are a South Carolina registered voter)!

Lines and Another House Pic

My love of photography extends from a fascination of lines and spaces. I think my focus on abandoned places is partially explained by this. An abandoned place has its original lines of function and utility. The building existed for a reason and had a life defined by that purpose. An abandoned building has new lines of decay from the press of time and elements. The result is a picture that has unique lines that straddle worlds of life and death (aka change).

I've looked around my house to see interesting lines. The picture below is of a bulletin board above my desk. I've run it through a graphics program with an 'oil painting' tweak. The picture is an interesting study in lines, elements and space. I also placed a frame around the picture. The frame is a bit cheesy. I think I'll leave that off in future pics. For your consideration...
