Thank you Allan/Abking for the title again, be careful what you say on my tabs! :)

i see you were very clever with your camera at the fest. love the homage to Oscar, what a great, miss him...and the fedora based poster for LC. not sure what the title means in regards to the tabblo, but it makes it so mysterious. in the tradional Leftie style. Love the pink Chapeau!

Annelies, je hebt een hele aparte manier van dingen die je vast legt maar ookvan hoe je ze vast legt op de foto, heel mooi gedaan!
Andre. said at 11:00 a.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Simple and cool. Very nice idea with the last shot (yeah, you know me. Just love glasses and else):)
Leftofcenter said at 11:03 a.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
it's Heineken (proud sponsors of the jazz fest) wouldn't feel comfortable drinkin' vodka in broad daylight... (not yet) ;)

It's always a great day when i wake up to a cup of coffee and a Leftie Tab. Random shots that all connect---"6 degrees of separation."

Love your perspective in the last shot. Set up perfectly. Wish i had that poster of Cohen hanging in my house. And your captions, especially the "Got you back" ones are very Kuel. ........

thugs have each other's backs...
Lifequest22 said at 11:47 a.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Yes they do--ALWAYS.
Pkeener said at 12:20 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
HEY! if I take your title and apply it, then that means I know Oscar AND LC. now dat's cool.
Pkeener said at 12:21 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
And, when did you add the captions??
TavarES said at 12:27 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
6 degrees of…! I think that I understand you! Annelies, the world is not great… the people is that they are very small!!!

A beauty tabblo! I love LC!
YorkJodi said at 1:25 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Great tabblo... love your photos...
AliDar said at 2:45 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
I'm only six steps away from understand the meaning of this, but six steps isn't far, not at all! Great Tab Annelies! Love the 'flood' shot!
Ira said at 4:07 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Interesting shots. Interesting job with photos.
JuDeck said at 4:57 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
a super tgif...the mixture of colors, surfaces, themes and all of them melting into the separation...love the flood, the toy, the violinist...totaly cool beans.
Cowgirl said at 7:53 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Great shots looks like you had fun and the last shot cheers to O.C. looks like a MOJITO ...
Lifequest22 said at 9:14 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
That last shot is just so Koole.
Leftofcenter said at 10:04 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
Thanks Keener, amiga, MARIAN - thank you boys & girls :)
Bobbie it's BEER, impossible to walk around with a pretty mojito amid the jazz fest crowd!
Dar- betcha you're the closest to understanding my 6 degrees - which is the jazz fest btw- all pics were taken in and around the vicinity of the outdoor stages.
Of course overlooking all this musical madness is the great Oscar Peterson who's a Montreal native Thanks DEB for the youtube video.
Jantass said at 11:04 p.m. on Jul 4, 2008:
wow,excellent shots and tabblo ...very nice work !!
Nina1960 said at 3:32 a.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
Love your PINK hat en wat is dat kleine speelgoedje??
21-gramm said at 7:07 a.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
GRANDLY! LOVE IT!
Leftofcenter said at 8:40 a.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
thx Jeanine, Den-zen.
Marian, the pink hat- dat ben ik niet, dat kind was zo bezig met haar nieuw speelgoedtje, kan jij je die tijd nog herinneren? ik haast niet...
Nina1960 said at 10:43 a.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
Long long time ago.....steppen dat kan ik mij op dit moment nog herinneren en met een bromtol spelen en uren lang met lego...huizen en vooral boten bouwen.
Bravemoonbearer said at 1:40 p.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
Awsome.Love the girl in the pink hat.
Whya said at 3:56 p.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
love those back shots, great tab, A!
Abking said at 4:45 p.m. on Jul 5, 2008:
You are very welcome for the comment that led to the title. You ran with it in unexpected ways which is always exciting to see. The first shot made me nervous at first, maybe because I watch a lot of horror/zombie movies, and all that liquid red...BUT, after I tuned in, got into the whole gestalt of the tabblo, I sensed the music in the air, and saw the red pool was a few degrees away from the red violin which was a few degrees away from the pink hat which was one degree away from the chapeau of Mr. Cohen, which covers the head from whence issued "what's the proper salutation between people as they pass each other in the flood?" A koan from Mr. Cohen.
Leftofcenter said at 8:17 a.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
typo!
Thanks EVERYONE, thanks Sandy, April and- Allan: your review (of the situation) makes me feel like Snoopy after he knows he's written somethin' good (happy feet), as long as there are a handful of you (U KNOW WHO U ARE) "out there" who can smile at my zany friday specials, I'm chill!! :))
AliDar said at 12:04 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
I think some have the avantage of a pre public viewing. Maybe in a van somewhere down by a river?
Mantel.d said at 4:33 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
Quel succès tous ces comments ! Il est vrai que vos tabblos sont toujours drôles et sensibles...J'attends avec impatience les nouveaux, mais je garde du temps pour visiter les anciens qui sont nombreux et que je savoure par petites séries... Encore Bravo !
Leftofcenter said at 6:17 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
DAR-DAR-DAR: no pre-viewing on this one (although it DOES happen, ya know, a friend's advice on the layout etc) but wot happened it that I added the captions after public release, as the inspiration trickled in...

Merci Dominique, tabblo c pour me défouler cyber-thérapie je m'amuse!! :) chic alors si vous décidez de visiter mes tabblos, j'essaierai de revenir à la langue du "pays" (comme l'a si bien dit votre premier ministre lors des festivités à Québec!!) instinctivement je préfère le français pour mes titres textes etc- mais c toute une histoire après pour traduire et expliquer à la majorité visible des membres du site....................... ouf! :)
Lifequest22 said at 6:31 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
Clever captions you added-- squiglely jellyfish.
Leftofcenter said at 10:41 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
Amiga: "squiglely" does not appear to be a legit English word (I don't recall anyone using it at the Ponderosa), but SQUIGGLY does: a short, irregular curve or twist, as in writing or drawing.
Please stop confusing me.
Lifequest22 said at 10:51 p.m. on Jul 6, 2008:
Typo--sorry. LOLOLOL
Pkeener said at 12:01 a.m. on Jul 7, 2008:
sheesh! wot and wot???
Lifequest22 said at 12:35 a.m. on Jul 7, 2008:
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASAAAAAAAAAAAABIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Mantel.d said at 4:05 a.m. on Jul 7, 2008:
Encore une image parfaite ( la n°2 ) avec son déséquilibre et son sujet décentré. La composition en triangle classique lui donne une grande solidité et la disproportion entre la surface animée et la grande surface inerte est particulièrement bien dosée. Et puis il y a ce rapport flou-net que j'adore et qui est toujours efficace. En plus l'image est chargée de sens et illustre bien la solitude des êtres isolés dans des destins qui ne se croisent pas . Je sais bien qu'on ne pense pas à tout ça au moment du tir-réflexe , mais ça ne fait pas de mal de l'analyser soigneusement pour préparer les prochains "tirs" et être comme le disait Cartier-Bresson :" Au moment parfait, au bon endroit , le doigt sur l'obturateur"...
Je suis à peu près au tiers de vos autres tabblos et ils m'intéressent car j'ai l'impression que pour vous, l'image n'est pas uniquement une recherche esthétique qui fait dire : "c'est beau mais c'est chiant ...." mais un médium dont vous vous servez pour faire partager l'émotion du présent et quelque fois du passé.... en fait c'est bien parce que vous y mettez beaucoup de sincérité . Je devine que vous avez aussi une bonne technique du dessin ...
J'arrête là car je suis en train décrire le comment le plus long et le plus pontifiant de la série....
D.M.
Leftofcenter said at 8:12 a.m. on Jul 7, 2008:
mes images sont tout ça??? :)) je vais finir par "me prendre pour un autre"! (ça c'est une autre expression à la gougoune..) faut pas regarder mes tabblos de trop près, c'est juste du DIVERTISSEMENT, comme les spectacles de Céline Dion à Vegas :))) et parfois c'est noir comme du Hitchcock............... mais vrai, il n'y a que de la sincérité derrière mes photos. au moins ça.
la floue-nette (JAZZ) j'y avais pensé a priori, l'anonymat au milieu de la foule, j'en ai shooté une dizaine au moins mais c la seule qui a débarqué comme je voulais! (et je l'aime bcp)
Merci D.M.!!

Annelies! A wonderful tabblo. I'm still thinking of the pictures and the text.

Thoughtful tabblo.

Bravo pour le commentaire impressionnant de Dominique. Willy Ronis, avec qui j'ai eu plusieurs fois le plaisir de dîner, disait qu'il fallait faire un grand nombre de photos pour en extraire une seule qui soit valable, mais qu'il y avait parfois des accidents heureux. Il a publié récemment un livre sur les chats, où l'on voit une photo prise il y a très longtemps et sur laquelle il y avait un chat qu'il n'avait jamais remarqué avant de décider de faire ce livre !!!
