Dante’s Rainbow

This photo, also from Panoply 2005, was one of several I was considering for the last post. For some reason, the motif seems to keep coming up, and so I decided to go ahead and present it now. Not terribly remarkable as fireworks goes, but if one takes a moment to contemplate the meaning, and to meditate upon the beauty of the roiling fireballs, it does seem to be a bit captivating.

Prosecuting SUPER COP !!! Ricky McCarver: Martyr For INJUSTICE

Either way, it seemed he was posing for my benefit, which might bring on some secondary possibilities that would explain his particularly magnanimous behavior – for a hack photographer and a shade tree website builder like myself.

For those non-the-wiser, “Koch” is pronounced like the popular soft drink “Coke” and is a double-entendre whose meaning is defined most literally as “coal” not unlike what you burn in a bar-b-cue grill, but is also used to refer colloquially to the Human “coke” machine…
