Tree and Yellow Wall

Tree and Yellow Wall, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

I thought that this was really just a cool pic. there is nothing else to it other then that. I think that it is a bit of a juxtaposition to find something that seems peaceful like this at an amusement park. I took these at Knott's Berry Farm. It is just so not peaceful there and this seems to feel so peaceful.

Thanks for looking.

Solo Stand Found - Han Solo Makes His First Appearance...

Solo Stand Found, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

So I guess the name of the blog is hard for some to get. Lost and found was taken, and I had some other ideas that were taken as well. It turns out that it is hard to pick a name that works. Google, Woot, Yahoo and others out there went with the non word type names. I did not come up with anything like that. 

So Lost And Found seemed to work, it kind of described how I see myself sometimes. It seems to me that that the more I push the boundaries of what I don't know, it only only opens up more avenues of exploration. More that I don't know. It seems that there is an inverse relationship with the equation, a bit of an expanding circle when it comes to the boundaries of what I know.

Well, I did have a friend that couldn't understand why there were no Han Solo pictures up since it was Solo Stand Found or something. So here's to you Dave! Hope you like the Han Solo Pics! More to come as I have left him in my bag and will pull him out every now and again just to keep it fresh.

Thanks for looking.

Lantern, Knotts Berry Farm

Lantern, Knotts Berry Farm, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

So, we went to Knotts Berry Farm and I got to play somemore with the new lens. I really think that for a walk around general purpose, this will be good for 90% of what I do. I of course can always find a good place to spend more money if it comes into my hands. That is bad. Remember, Love Bikes, Good. Love Cameras, Good. Any extra cash just sitting around, Bad.

My Townie 3

My Townie 3, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

OK, I love bikes, I can admit it. But is that so wrong? Really, of all the things to love, Bikes seems like a good thing. The simple but elegant machine that is also art. I really am sad that in the hard drive crash I lost the images of the wicked cool Electra Jeremy 3 that my brother bought off me. I had some cool images of it that I had not gotten around to posting. 

I still have an Electra Townie 8 that I bought with the idea of selling it, about a year ago. I found it cheap and thought I could make something off of it, but it is still in my garage. I miss my first Cannondale that I sold to help pay for my current one. I wish I could have kept it, just to hang it on the wall, and maybe to ride on occasion.

I can't just pass by the bike store and pick up a tube, I have to look at all the bikes. It is one of my favorite looks on flickr. I love to look at them, ride them, clean them, tune them, and more and more, shoot them.

I love bikes.

Thanks for looking.

Niece, Niece, Nephew, aka the Triplets, with Studio Lighting

Niece, originally uploaded by SoLostAndFound / Bill Lindsay.

The Triplets. My Mother-In-Law got 5 new grandkids in less then 6 months when first the triplets were born and then our youngest daughter and a nephew was also born. It is great for them since they are all so close in age. I think that my youngest loves the visits just to see all the cousins. I really love the shot of them all together, I think that one came out really cute.

Thanks for looking.
