You have captured an image that will forever live in my memories, but not my memories only, an entire generation of memories. These were the tables where we sat and talked about the future while drinking a Pepsi or a Coca Cola; these are the tables where conversations about love, war, peace, life and death were discussed. These red and white checkered tableclothes, though they are photographed in black and white, are what we see in our dreams when we dream about our youth. By Robert L. Huffstutter

My congratulations to Professor Bop for this excellent photo, a masterpiece.

IF...you are invited

San Diego downtown

WHAT DID A SAILOR DO ON LIBERTY? There was never a shortage of fun things to do. There was the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, Mission Beach, dances at the USO, The Plaza picture show, tattoo shops, coffee shops, cafes, steak houses, Tijuana, Coronado, Coronado Ferry, Point Loma, downtown bars, Public Library, downtown bars, Union Square and whatever was happening spontaneously through a smile that said "hello."

and i will see you someday again in the clouds. [EXPLORE!]

THANKS TO MINA SHARIF for creating a masterpiece, a tribute to someone special that Mina has known, and a tribute to those the viewers have know, loved and miss. Here's my text about this great tribute in photographic format:

This looks like a very personal tribute to someone you knew. It is a very reverent and creative tribute.

I admire your originality, your genius in creating a perfect message to those we have known and miss, no matter how long ago it was that we lost them or last said good bye.

I find your photo very touching and I can think of so many people I do hope to see again. I have added this to a number of galleries and I hope you approve of my selection.

Again, you have created a most remarkable photograph. I would also like to add this to several of my online blogs. They will be linked back to you. Thanks, thanks for such an uplifting message.
Robert L. Huffstutter

ONE MARVELOUS PHOTOGRAPH...I will forever be in love with love and the memory of that time love visited me for a season...

And then another love stopped by, the one I have spent my life with throughout the years.

Sometimes, I suspect, we have two loves in our lives and the last one is the one Fate wanted us to choose...

MY CONGRATULATIONS TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER 谦和老爹

ONE MARVELOUS PHOTOGRAPH...I will forever be in love with love and the memory of that time love visited me for a season...

Added to a gallery with the following text:

I chose this photograph for the beauty of the bridge, the buildings on the other side and the boats moving by, but it was the couple on the shore that made this image perfect.

Romance, at whatever time in our lives it arrives is always remembered best when two are sitting beside the sea or a stream, lingering and looking at each other and then the bridge, now and then.

Will they remember this scene sometime in the far future? If the romance lasts, they will remember the lights more and more as time goes by.

All we are saying...

ONE GREAT CAPTURE BY JOHN KOSTON, copyrighted image 2011 by John Koston
_______________________________________________________
Editor's Comment:

This was everywhere the beatniks were. I was not a peacenik, but one who believed in the USA's fight for democracy for all.

I have learned that not all want democracy now...

There were those who thought this was the logo for the Mercedes--or something akin to this. My mind blurs a trifle when I try to remember too much. Ah, peace, yes, a desire for peace. Hey, that would have been cool, but afterthought is of no value.

Peace, in retrospect, would have been a great idea. This is quite a composition. It would make one fantastic canvas. Robert L. Huffstutter

MY MESSAGE TO THE ARTIST, CHRISAQUA47


YOUR STYLE CANNOT BE MISTAKEN...You have a style that is most impressive, a style I admire and one that I could not reproduce if I tried. That is one of the reasons I like your work so very much--it is yours, unmistakenably yours. I would be able to identify your work no matter where I might be. That I admire your style should be obvious. I would love to have a style as unique as you have. I shall continue to work on my own watercolors and console myself with the fact that each artist has contributions to offer, some of more value in one area than others, but contributions nevertheless. I would love to see your work in a major exhibition somewhere.


Without any knowledge about this vessel, it first reminded me of scenes from my imagination, images of youthful wishes to traverse the seas of this world in a casual manner, going from port to port, celebrating the joys of each port, then returning to sail again. Oh, I had visions of being on such vessels and becoming a master seaman with many tales to tell. This is one reason I admire this particular work of art you have created. One can almost smell the diesel fuel and hear the engines turning the props, creating a wake that follows for awhile then disappears.

The reflections of your tri-colors is subtly seen at the bow, a touch of sheer artistry.

Just a quick glimpse of this woman and my mind returns to the late 50s and early 60s. She was not here long, but she left her glow in the minds of all who saw and loved her.

Senta Berger

Originally uploaded by Truus, Bob & Jan too!
Senta Berger has what an artist might refer to as face that is geometerically perfect. That is to say, according to anatomy professionals, her eyes are spaced and shaped perfectly as is her chin and forehead in proportion to her ears and cheeks. This is a formula that is applied to all ethnic groups, not any one in particular. I forgot to mention her hair: I love red hair. My wife's hair was red when she was in her youth.

My wife's face is not and was not geometerically perfect, but her heart is shaped just right. My wife never minds when I pass an admiring glance. She is a darling. And what else can I say? Now would be the perfect time to seal my lips.

Georges Seurat - Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte 1884-85

One of my all-time favorites, a real upbeat image. I can almost imagine being there at times. What a serene era, just prior to the World War and after the French Revolution, a period of true Bohemia. How cool it would have been to have had a garret in one of the big roofs of Monmartre and talked with the various artists at a variety of bistros in the evenings, sipping espresso and/or absinthe.

Of course the image we see here is the one of proper society and social affluence, but it took both sides of the spectrum to create the kind of art these men and women of that era created.

Great choice, Teresa, I do enjoy your exhibition, always open, always easy to reference. Robert
