Pi

October 2, 2008 Elaine-


There once was a girl who loved pi

I never could quite fathom why

To her it’s a wonder

To me just a number

Its beauty revealed by and by

Three point one four one five nine

Makes the lazy student whine,

But give this ratio a try-

You’ll find that it’s as easy as pi!

— Tom Wilson & — Fred Russcol

    Cute poem. The math side of my brain doesn’t function and yes, I’m quite serious. Gorgeous colors in this image. We don’t have graffiti in our town so I had to photograph some on a passing train. This reminded me I only posted one image. GASP!

    I like this, it has an odd ethereal glow which works really well.

    Dumpster art so to say, in its most positive meaning. Great colors Elaine ๐Ÿ™‚ We have plenty of graffiti in my town, although is not really worthy of calling it art – more like tags ala ‘kilroy waz here’ and the likes.

    The glow is certainly eye-catching. And it is wonderful of the neighborhood children to take the time to decorate a lowly garbage bin.You have done justice to their efforts.

    Simple design on green canvas that is a great shot- I like the color matching – who knew the graffiti person could have such great taste.

    You have shown the warmth that does lie in the cold of the city. I can just imagine where this must be sitting, but somehow you make it seem inviting!
