Rescue

Fire Escape

Humor does not rescue us from unhappiness, but enables us to move back from it a little.

  2. Great quote and great shot.
    I always thought stairs like that scary though.

  3. This one and the one below are really wonderful. I broke into a great grin at each. We have to be somewhat responsible for our own safety, I guess. Thanks.
    Thanks for you comment on my new painting too.

  4. I like shots like these with the construction of stairs outside a building. Nice view and composition. :)

  5. Jeanne ~ I’m a sucker for fire escae lines, myself.

    Nicole ~ In case of a fire, they are only scary if you DON’T climb down them. :-)

    Nouveau ~ sometimes you just gotta escape…

    Anna ~ thanks, Anna. There’s more to life in Madison than barns and farmers’ market, I guess. :-)

  7. I love the lines and colors. You have a terrific perspective on your “lines and angles” shots. This is a shot that is simply a joy to look at, but I sure can’t say why. It certainly is not a delicate flower (which you do with care and insight). Nonetheless, in its own way, it is intriguing to look at and enjoy.
