Sunrise In Lake Charles (May 22, 2017) — Images by kenne
Down On the Bayou
The cypress swamp around me wraps its spell,
With hushing sounds in moss-hung branches there,
Like congregations rustling down to prayer,
While Solitude, like some unsounded bell,
Hangs full of secrets that it cannot tell,
And leafy litanies on the humid air
Intone themselves, and on the tree-trunks bare
The scarlet lichen writes her rubrics well.
The cypress-knees take on them marvelous shapes
Of pygmy nuns, gnomes, goblins, witches, fays,
The vigorous vine the withered gum-tree drapes,
Across the oozy ground the rabbit plays,
The moccasin to jungle depths escapes,
And through the gloom the wild deer shyly gaze.

Perspective becomes wavy
Curves get sexier.

Las Vegas Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon Runners In The Fremont Street Experience
— Images & Video by kenne
Last weekend we spent three days in Las Vegas and as we sometimes do chose to stay on Fremont Street in downtown rather than out on the “strip”. While there, I watch part of the Las Vegas Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon taking place on the streets of Vegas, which included running through the Fremont Street Experience area downtown. And, since the event took place in the late afternoon, early evening, the marathon diffidently had that Vegas feel under the bright lights for the people watching and the 30,000 runners.
You can see some of the action in the video below.

Swimming with the sharks
In the Golden Nugget tank,
You will always win.
