MPC #120 - Journey - 4/2 - 4/16

**kalisto** · 03-31-2014, 10:59 PM

EDIT: Extended to the 21st

As I just completed my yearly migration to 'home' and back, I figured 'migration' would be a good theme. Then I figured it makes no sense, so thesaurus gave me 'journey' instead.

Take it as you want.

Trying to make the 8 second journey

Any journey around the back roads here in New England is a mess of mud and water this time of year. The folks on the right side of the picture don't have to worry about that anymore. They have completed their respective journeys.

Nearing the end of a trans-Atlantic journey on an Airbus A380.

This Emirates Airbus A380 jumbo jet photo-bombed my picture of the moon and cemetery marker. Here's a close-up of the big bastard (not an entry in the MPC).

If it's cool with everyone, I'm extending this until monday the 21st. It's pretty much easter weekend for everyone, and I don't expect people to be on here. So shoot away and we'll close the MPC on Monday.

**Wiilbert** · 04-16-2014, 03:41 PM

Sounds good to me, I might be able to get out and shoot another.

**From_the_NEK** · 04-17-2014, 07:20 AM

Cool with me too. Can the date on the thread title be changed?

**Huck_Schmuck** · 04-17-2014, 09:08 AM

That made me happy when I checked in last night. I have a couple of entries but didn't have the strength to post last night.

This has been my journey for the past year and most recently this week. One HELL of a journey for my son. One of the most surreal experiences I have ever gone through following him in bed restraints under guard and nursing staff into the basement of the most fucked up places in the world. "Psychiatric care"
Bi Polar Sucks. Its Awesome. :):

Sounds pretty intense, and wish your son well.

Some great shots, too, but especially love Lonnie's.

**bad dancer** · 04-21-2014, 07:09 PM

Don't be sorry ! It's meant to be a bit light hearted. If anyone has any tangible connection to Bi Polar, they usually do have a chuckle, but holy shite! , there's not a lot of fun going on in those brains some times. I have a whole new appreciation for those, traffic slow today due to a "police incident" traffic updates.. Thanks for the vibes!!
