Photo journaling of the evening

in #photography6 years ago

We had a really fun time recently going out to an evening live jazz concert by the bay. I always like visiting areas close to the ocean.

I took a few photos that evening. The restaurant had a nice outdoor venue and the temperature and weather were perfect for the concert. Here’s some flowers on the tree branch by the outdoor stage:

Here’s the path leading down towards the concert area:

The concert was very fun and something you really need to just be there to enjoy. Nice food, drink, pleasant music.

Part way through I grew a little tired though and excused myself to go walk about. I found this interesting old factory by the bay. I wondered if it is still being used in any way and what it was for.

I could almost imagine a team of Oompa Loompa’s working non-stop inside making cod liver oil or something while bats flew in and out of what looked like broken or open windows. Lol, strange thought I know...

All this Oompa Loompa activity needs lots of power. As in electric power. Just up the block was this big electric thing-a-ma-jigger that I thought was interesting. I liked the gold colored insulators and the birds nest looking wires routing all over. Probably not the best thing to be living next to 24/7 though.

Later on that evening the old factory and sky really started to look interesting, especially after Google Photo’s added some digital effects. I found myself wondering, “Is this really plant Earth?” LOL.

Anyhow, back to reality. I hope everyone is having fun out there and doing wonderfully.


Thanks for reading! I always value your support and comments. The pictures were taken by me with my Galaxy S9+ with some modifications done in the digital darkroom using GIMP and Google Photos.

Sounds like a great night. Those flowers were really lovely. But I must warn you about oompa loompas ... they bite ankles if you get too close to their candy:) LOL.

LOL, I would hate to find that out the hard way. Explaining what happened to the medical community might be difficult. ;)

Thanks for sharing your night out with us! I love those flower photos. What are they? We have outdoor concerts here by the beach too. I love attending them.

I really enjoy live music when I get the chance to see it. There are so many types of flowering trees and bushes around here that I'm not sure what the flowers are, sorry about that.

Thank you. There are some really nicely landscaped restaurants, businesses and homes around here, especially near the ocean areas and islands in the Puget Sound.

incredible your post sir @lightsplasher
I always follow you and always I read your post.
because it always attracts what you write ..
Thanks you

Thank you too, and I found your latest poem interesting to read as well. (I needed to run it through a translator to partially understand it. It would be nice if the pages would translate automatically - maybe some time Steemit will do that.)

this flower looks very special My dear friend @lightsplasher, what is the name of this flower friend, and this flower if we plant can withstand drought.

There are many different types of flowering trees and bushes here -sorry, I'm really not sure what this one is or if it can withstand drought.

oo, thank you very much my dear friend @lightsplasher

I can not imagine this team !. I just want to ask! do you think friends @lightsplasher? are the teams from Oompa Loompa a team specially designed to work on making cod liver oil ?. I see this team is rather funny like the little dwarves. hahaha LOL (joking).

LOL, it is just me trying to be funny, they are making chocolate here. In the original movie they are little people who were rescued from some far away place like Africa. See politically correct Oompa Loompa evolution

The Oompa Loompas like to live in the chocolate factory and do all the work because they don't think they would be accepted by society at large because of their short stature and orange skin.

I felt sorry for them even as I child when I heard the story; I figured they would have some serious health issues when subsiding on a diet primarily of simple carbohydrates and artificial colors, lol.

I just thought it was funny since I had worked myself long shifts in factories and think of myself as having some Oompa Loompa qualities. Now the factories seem mostly closed around here from the forces of capitalism and over harvesting of resources and I'm wandering around listening to jazz and mining crypto, LOL.

(Now the reason this originally was funny was... oh, never mind) ;)

hahaha ... ● Yes friends I now understand about life Oompa Loompas and Oompa Loompas team is also very diligent in working. (for what have a large muscle or body if lazy at work.> LOL ..)
