A Notebook – Since 2007
35 mm slide taken with my Exakta 500 in 1969: An abstract, long-exposure photograph of lights vertically flowing in the foreground with squirrely lines of blue and orange streaks in the background created through intentional camera movement.
The Jimi Hendrix “Are You Experienced” album (1967) included a song, “May This be Love”:
“My worries seem so very small
With my waterfall
I can see my rainbow calling me…”
Turn the photo horizontal and we see an electric guitar effect.
