Postcards from Nowhere: Madison

Jennifer and I managed to get a little time off from work and school to slip home and visit the cousins. These photos were taken over the Christmas break (2009/2010) in Madison, MS. The images were all captured on one of the following:

Note: All of my lenses have been repaired at this point, although I did get an "Error 30" message a few times on one of my 17-85mm lenses.

The images are compiled into a 22 Meg (3:49) Adobe Flash slideshow(madison.swf) that you should be able to open and view with any browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.). To view the slideshow, just click on the photo above. If you want to view the slideshow as a Windows executable, you can play this version (madison.exe), and it allows you to play, pause, skip forward, backwards, etc.

Image post-processing was done in Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended. The slideshow was created using Imagematics Stillmotion Pro.

The soundtrack is Shattered [Turn The Car Around] by O. A. R. off of the album All Sides.

Lyrics in the extended entry.

Shattered [Turn The Car Around]

In a way, I need a change
From this burnout scene
Another time, another town
Another everything
But it's always back to you

Stumble out, in the night
From the pouring rain
Made the block, sat and thought
There's more I need
It's always back to you

But I'm good without ya
Yeah, I'm good without you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

How many times can I break till I shatter?
Over the line can't define what I'm after
I always turn the car around
Give me a break let me make my own pattern
All that it takes is some time but I'm shattered
I always turn the car around

I had no idea that the night
Would take so damn long
Took it out, on the street
While the rain still falls
Push me back to you

But I'm good without ya
Yeah, I'm good without you
Yeah, yeah, yeah

How many times can I break till I shatter?
Over the line can't define what I'm after
I always turn the car around
Give me a break let me make my own pattern
All that it takes is some time but I'm shattered
I always turn the car around

Give it up, give it up, baby
Give it up, give it up, now
Now

How many times can I break till I shatter?
Over the line can't define what I'm after
I always turn the car around
All that I feel is the realness I'm faking
Taking my time but it's time that I'm wasting
Always turn the car around

How many times can I break till I shatter?
Over the line can't define what I'm after
I always turn the car around

Don't wanna turn that car around
I gotta turn this thing around

Jack says this video is awesome and that he has awesome cousins. Kate wants to watch it over and over again and wants to know if the girl deer has a name (?). Tatia loves it and is glad we were able to see you and Jenn over the holidays!
