Pac-Man

On one level this image comes across to me as having some serious emotion and artistic value, and is deserving of a name reflecting that impression. But on the other hand I don’t think anyone who was around during the early days of video games (and paying attention to them at all) is not going to see the more obvious interpretation. So I guess the question is can an image that has that kind of reference be taken particularly seriously. It’s kind of like trying to take the William Tell Overture seriously having spent considerable time watching Lone Ranger reruns as a kid. (There’s a photo floating around the family archives somewhere of me at Christmas in a Lone Ranger outfit. Hi-Yo Silver!)
I can just hear the sound of that game – many hours that game was played at our house! I’d love to see the photo of you as the Lone Ranger – maybe it could be a POTD! I must admit I do really like the B&W images of the lilies.
Thanks Judy. I’ll have to see if I can dig up that photo–might make a good Halloween POTD post!
You have completely changed the way I will look at lily pads! 🙂
n a good way I hope Kathy!
