Something for Sunday

Light, color and magic.

I made this picture a few days ago. I posted it on Instagram. That meant it popped up on Facebook and Twitter. But, you didn’t see it.

It’s a picture that surprised me when I assembled and layered it. So, you get to see it. My apologies to those of you who saw it on other social media. At least you get a chance to see it again.

That’s some ego, eh?

I generally call this picture a colorful mess. And, so it is. That’s what it makes it a lot of fun.

A local political note. Last night was a great one. Governor John Bel Edwards was re-elected by a very slim margin. This means three things.

He won in a very red state. For sure, New Orleans is blue. That’s about it.

The President of The United States came down here three times to campaign for the Republican candidate, Eddie Rispone. Many people thought that this election was a referendum on the president. Think about that.

The election was very close. About a percentage point. That’s why every vote matters. I don’t know, but it seems to me that my vote could have put him over the top. Or, my neighbor’s vote. Or, the family two blocks down. Don’t ever say that your one vote is meaningless. It means something.
