Floating Glasses Illusion Photo - What's the deal with the different size lenses? Grow Your Mind as You Look at This Oddity - A song about a Friend

Time for a song. Like most of the Soul Amp songs it's an odd one:


It seems the story of life is to just keep plugging away. I've watched my mom do it. And my dad did it to. Therein lies the beauty of life. Not giving up and continuing to grow and enjoy what we have around us, right? Well that and beer (in moderation). That's what I think. You might think something different, but maybe that's what the freaky song above is mostly about I think as well as dealing with what people think of you including your friends and family.... and well you might find the following two photos strange to look at (don't let them freak you out too much)...I'll tell you how I did it sometime:

Colorado Train Tracks in May 2010 - Photo by Mike Fisk - soul-amp.com



I took this composite image in Colorado just before a bunch of tornado warnings hit the area. It's a vertical composite of 10 images. It's weird, I know. But enjoy and rock out to the newish song about not giving up... 'cause we can't stand it when you do.

Also, if you want to see a really big version of this image, click here:

Yellow Daffodils in Wisconsin Spring by a Pond and in the Woods - Love is the Beat Song by Soul Amp - And it's in YOU! - Flowers for FRIDAY

Here's a wonderful new song by the Ampers of the Soul 'cause some might call this a Love Song... and that's the way I'm rolling it:




Ah, spring. Here's it is in June and we're still in the midst of it here in the WI. Summer is just around the corner, maybe. You never know up here. These we taken in April of this year. It's supposed to be warm this weekend, but rainy rainy rainy. Alas... enjoy what we get...cause the beat is in you! =)

Weird Chinese Floating Bird Object Photo - Strange bird sculpture floating in an odd room - Bird Sculpture Staring at you - The Sha La La La La Song

Here's that weird and wonderful Sha La La La La song from the irrepressible Soul Amp:


So sorry to be absent for so long. I think I just went into a bit of a creative slump. I hope to get back to music as well. But here's a couple of odd photos (with more to come) of a Chinese bird sculpture or object or whatever it might be called (it's very cool...it opens) that appears to be floating in midair. It's a little trick to get it to float (no I didn't toss it into the air)...I'll tell you how in a later blog (I have more of these floating object pics to post). I think they are a bit mind bending, but that's just me. I figure they fit the song. Enjoy.

WARNING Gruesome Photos to Follow...of smashed finger of clarinet player - Imasges Smashed Finger in Car Door of Artist Need Stiches but Recovering

Here's another story of a smashed finger contributed by a reader named Elizabeth who is a clarinet player:

howdy
glad to see your fingernail grew out all right
im not so sure mine will be a whole finger wide
as i split the matrix where the nail gets made
its growing in kinda weird and the 'disolving' stitches
are in the way of progress
alas..at week 5.5
dang car doors!

i did this to myself, popped it like a grape
broke the bone and the nail came right off
i think the open wound took the agony of the pressure build up away
because once the lidocaine wore off it wasn't too agonizing!

cheers
elizabeth

now for some clarinet!



Thank you Elizabeth. Please keep us posted on your nail's condition. I hope it improves.

Here's Elizabeth's pics (again, warning, they're pretty gruesome):

Here's all the posts documenting my own smashed finger saga (which completely pales in comparison to Elizabeth's smashed finger):
