It was a cloudy, cool morning out at Pope Farm... and I accidentally knocked the camera button over to its psychedelic setting.

These are completely unretouched photos, and I did not mean to take them this way.

Not 'retouched', but as you say, 'touched'. Very nicely, too. I love the atmosphere of unease and implicit doom. Or maybe that's just me.

Bending their big creepy heads in despair.

They brighten my day and remind me of the Sunflower fields in Austria. Beautiful Day, Beautiful You.

When I was younger, and something like this happened, I would say, "coincidence" or "that's odd." I would tell myself, or silently believe, "This is not important." And then I would forget about it.

Like its erstwhile ally Nazi Germany, Japan was fighting an ideological war. A superior race was destined to guide those less graced.

These two sentences seem to explain the Left's neverending culture wars. I copied them from a Wall Street Journal article "Watching the Atomic Bomb Blast as a POW Near Nagasaki".

The author, an American POW used as slave labor near Nagasaki concludes that "We POWs -- men who were starved and tortured, who suffocated in the holds of hell ships, who were beaten at will, who died for lack of medical care, and who saw friends worked to death —- have no doubt that the atomic bombs ended the war."
