My oldest teaches middle school, Georgia history and social studies. A couple of years back he had a new student that came with her SUPPORT CHICKEN.
I kid you not. The school built a coop for it. Stranger than fiction.

While waiting on today's smoke-filled sunset, I was treated to an incredible mirage over Lake Ontario. Air temperatures around 80 degrees over water in the 40s created the perfect atmosphere for weird things to happen.
In the distance, sailboats can be seen stretched, warped & inverted. As light passes through air of different temperatures & density, it bends it in such a way that the world in front of you becomes distorted.

That's some impressive pic with the mirage Gary. Wondering where along L Ont. Grew up om Prince Edward County and spent a lot of time swimming,fishing,sailing around Wellington and Consecon and Salmon Point. Thanks for the memory. :thumbsup:
 
The photographs of O.Winston Link , taken in the mid 50’s in Virginia. He used elaborate multiple flash set ups that fired simultaneously to take dramatic night photos. The one taken in the drive in theatre with the train passing behind the screen is probably one of his most famous.

“O. Winston Link (1915 – 2001) was a commercial photographer and train buff who in the mid 1950s devoted five years of his life to recording the last days of steam on the Norfolk and Western railway line. Photographing at night (when the steam appeared white against the black sky) and enlisting both train personnel and locals as supporting cast, Link produced his own quasi-Rockwellian vision of a world that was soon to pass.”

You can just imagine it now.
"I want to take your kids down to the swimming hole, so I photograph them as the train passes."
"Martha, call the cops."
