Second in the Found Faces series begun yesterday, from an afternoon spent in a Bradenton salvage yard.
Please pray for Bella.
Bella Update: 07/26/08. Saturday. Bella's good this morning; walk was fun/no squirrels, but we did a different block than usual. She likes variety. Breakfast -- meds soon, the post-walk routine. She slept better last night than the one before. Panting still, but it's hot. So, thank you God for another morning blessing today.
Bella and I are grateful for each of you, for caring and singing (love is all around...), and especially for praying. Please understand this miracle being prayed for, because although it is day by day, it also may take a bit of time for completion: Bella's battle for life, wellness, and a healed heart isn't a sprint but a long-distance run.
What we have right now are day by day blessings: I am prayerfully thankful that her good days may be God's bit by bit miracle, slowly unfolding.

That's it, I'm hopping on a plane asap, lol :) This is wonderful VF, this face reminds me of a face of the North Wind, that was in a book that I had as a child. A great shot.

@MaryB: Hahahahaha! I think cheap tickets might get you here in time, before someone else grabs him up. But I'm wondering if he's really your type.
Whatever -- you're right, he sort of looks like that mythical North Wind face from childhood books I've seen.
Just a little scary... but very well done. Great find.

For some reason the troll from "Three Billy Goats Gruff" comes to mind. Interesting shapes and formations on the face.

14 May 2008 12:57pm
Looks just like a guy I once worked for . . he looked like this on a good day!

I'm going with angry - and I'm also guessing Neptune. Great closeup! This faces series is a good idea.
14 May 2008 5:28pm
@Ken McCoy: Heh, probably Neptune on a bad day.
Hy V.F. ..luv the framing on this face shot ..makes it a very powerful image..nice one.. Oh I nearly forgot..if your going to the Citizen Hours meeting in the City Hall on the 16th,don't forget to use the Barcorrata Boulevard entrance ,and try and avoid the roadworks on Cortez rd...hee hee..spooky hey..!!

@bronzebilly u.k.: Are you playing on the internet again Billy? Lol. Or have you been here?
Looks like a great find - this salvage yard - where you can take lots of great pictures. I really like this one with the details and the way you got in close. Great shot.
14 May 2008 8:41pm
I'm just loving the way you've framed this!! Again, VF, really fantastic!

@amy: Thank you amy.
I really like the face on this sculpture...It's just interesting.
15 May 2008 10:32pm
I am laughing after reading Billy's comment and your reply. I really like the tight crop om the face and clarity. I could see this printed very large and on the right wall.
