It's cool unless you get a ticket as soon as you pop out on the other side...Don't ask me how I know...

Do tell.

Watch going into VA coming out of the tunnel. It's downhill and the speed limit drops to 65, I believe. Local sheriff sits right there and fishes.

Yeah, ain't that the truth, sheriffs and VHP, that's gotta be a real money-maker for them. I'm a big fan of using "rabbits" on the interstate, to run block and sweep up radar and the like, but coming out of those tunnels I'm always extra-vigilant.

Thanks for following along.

Goodnight, Irene.​

Wow, some serious photoshop time for these pix! Quite a vision you have. Does the "ad" in "www.fbad.co" stand for "acid drop"?

Haha!

Nope, my view of the world is, um, vivid enough without the use of chemicals (dark chewy beer and dark chewy cigars being two notable exceptions).

Life is an interesting ride, and sometimes I'm not quite sure where I am or where I'm going to end up. So it is with the "manipulating" I'm doing with some/most of these photos. I've gone wayyyy too far with some, some I've run through the wringer multiple times and yet have still been quite unhappy with the results (but posted 'em up anyway), and some I've parked in straight-away center field on the first swing.

And, every now and again, I get incredibly lucky at the time of capture and end up with the photograph I saw in my mind's eye at the moment I pushed the button. I hesitate to call any of this stuff "art," but it's really kinda-sorta-almost what it is.

To me, anyway.

Thanks for riding along.

Photos are really lovely! I've pedaled up & down the creeper. Camped at a nearby National and/or State park on a motorbike wander through there.

Thanks Mike. We haven't found the time to do the Creeper yet, but it's on our bucket list.
