Go get 'em. The information is out there. As Bob Dylan said, you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.
This t rex has been a fixture in Forest Park for years. Time to let it loose.

Filler
I'm finished with the Artica series and shooting an improv festival this weekend. That will take time to edit so I need something to fill the gap.
T Rex here has been on the blog somewhere in the past but I thought it would shake things up visually. It's in a back corner of Forest Park. You would never come across it unless you were on a certain running and biking trail. Best have your wits about you if you do.

Landscape With Dinosaurs

A bug's eye view of a fiberglass triceratops and tyrannosaurus rex outside the St. Louis Science Center in Forest Park. Just fooling around. At least they existed in the same geologic era so I suppose they could have bumped into one another. (I didn't bother to look up the land range in which each of them lived). I'd prefer to be small enough to hide in the grass if they were passing by.

Bite Me

Bah, humbug. Not far from Steinberg Rink in a secluded corner of Forest Park you'll find something strange. You can't see it from any of the roadways. Tucked between the planetarium and Interstate 64 (more about which tomorrow) are lifesize, semi-realistic models of a tyrannosaurus rex and a triceratops. You know, just hanging out in a grove of trees, waiting to scare small children when they round a bend in a bike path. I think they are very weird and cool. Truth be told, though, they aren't the scariest things in St. Louis. We got places where angels fear to tread (like all American cities).
WHAT'S HAPPENING IN ST. LOUIS THURSDAY NIGHT WHILE I WRITE THIS: heavy freezing rain. Time to find my slippers and a glass of port.
TOMORROW: easy rider.

Jurassic Park
The blog demands new material week after week. Because my workdays are long, I have to get out on the weekend to shoot. Sometimes I don't have any ideas for topics. When that happens, I usually go to tthe riverfront or Forest Park.The park has a quiet corner where few people go. I was walking around with my camera and, in the distance shrough some trees, I saw T. Rex. Here? Never heard about this. When I approached, I found a menacing stegosaurus at its feet.
In this picture, Rexie looks like it's about rip into and destroy Barnes-Jewish Hospital, the core of Washington University Medical Center. It's one of the best in the country and they have patched me up a time or two. I hope the bad dinosaur leaves it alone.
There really is always something new to shoot.
TOMORROW: Earth Day
