Photos of Interest

I continually find photos that I feel are exceptionally interesting and without seeking specific photos out I could have never seen them.  There are things that date us (remind us of our age in this lifetime) and things that take us back immediately to our past and how we got to where we are currently.  I thoroughly enjoy seeing things that allow me to reflect, perhaps anyone that stumbles upon my blog will feel the same in seeing some of the images I am going to share here.  Enjoy....(sorry but my comments are coming after the photos).


When I was a kid I always wondered how they made it appear as though these two guys were climbing a wall, of course they cannot climb walls.  Batman and Robin revealed!


One statement sums this photo up:  "I'm a clean cut American kid, clean cut American kid!"  Boy did things change for this guy.
The faces behind the characters.  I am not entirely sure which characters the two taller guys portrayed, however I would have to assume that one of the two had to be 'chewy'.  I had heard long ago that the guy that played yoda had passed away (surely its been long enough ago that its probably fact now) but I dont think that I ever saw the actual cast.

I dont think that there is enough that I could possibly say about Mr. Cash.  Legend is an understatement, an Icon is a fact, an inspiration I am sure he was to more than one musician and everyone should have more than a fair share of a portion of his tracks in their hits list.


He is the man!


Now this isn't really a picture, more like a cultural representation of the slightest change in appearance that can dictate a change or difference in judgement.  I never beleived that WWF was fake (as my father used to tell us all the time), but soon found out as I grew closer into adulthood.  I still thought that Mr. Hulkamania was another icon, but after the reality show and his sons incidents with underage consumption and conviction I think that this representation of him is more accurate than I even know.


Michael, this photo makes me think of a seed that is about to be planted in a garden or a pot of sorts.  With the right soil, light and water could produce so much.  For him I dont think it mattered what the soil light and water provided he would have sprouted no matter where he was planted and he did just that.  Superstar he is/was.

Sometimes reflection can be very fun.  Even though it requires us to look at who we are, where we came from and where we are at now, it still allows us to remember where we were when all these things happened and possibly share it with the little loved ones as they progress into their future.  I often wonder how I can share all that I have experienced in my life with my little one and make it interesting.  Hopefully we will be able to retain the ability to use the resources available now to do just that and nobody will take that away from us.  Afterall I think that with the ease of doing so it may allow for the ability to advance and 'culturize' our new youth moving forward into the future.
