Something always brings me back to you …

 

You hold me without touch

You keep me without chains

I'll still feel you here

I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love

Me a few hours earlier than the previous picture, when we were just leaving the party. I know this must be unimaginable for some people.. but I got this car, my first, just 6 months ago.. at age 33. And yes.. it does provide that extra bit of freedom!

 

Thanks for the shot, Mireille! :)

No need to comment on this one. The local paper did a story on my photography a few months ago and they gave me the photos that they had taken. So . . . this is me with a few framed pics. I hope you all are having a great weekend!

So...this is midlife. When I started this I thought, this would inspire me to get back in better shape. But 11 weeks have gone by and I'm the same. Doing the same things. I thought I might be posting an occasion nude photo of my body to show progress and be looking ok toward the end of the year and look back and say "I did it, I wasn't done living yet!" That isn't what is happening. I don't feel like taking nude selfies and you wouldn't want to see them. I'm the same or worse. I eat the same. I live the same so I look the same. Only...now I'm on the downhill side of life. Doing the same means it only gets worse from here.

 

I saw an article recently, written by a woman, (bless women...they get this way worse than we men) But she talked about how at a certain age she noticed that she had become invisible to men. I noticed that AS a man a few years back there. There's an age where people just look past you. Young people, people your own age, even people older. Subconsciously, I imagine, you are no longer viewed as a potential mate by others and as such have diminished value as a human.

 

I guess it just comes with midlife. So what do you do with that? I think maybe, you get your hands on a bag of grass and settle back an just start watching the rest of the world as they fall all over each other trying to get in each other's pants without even realizing what they are doing.

   

As some of you know, I started taking guitar lessons in January with the goal of at least learning how to play Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here before May 1st of this year.

 

Because of that nasty flu and breathing thing, I wasn't able to practice or attend lessons for the past couple weeks, but did have a session with my instructor last evening. For the first time I played the first couple measures of my goal song.

 

I purchased a Little Martin guitar this afternoon as I wanted an instrument with a bit more portability.

 

After the purchase I met with a friend, Mike Darden, at Starbucks in Kailua-Kona. Up until about a month ago, Mike was Chief Staff Photographer for the West Hawaii Today newspaper. He's been a professional photographer here and in San Diego and in the Navy for more than 30 years.

 

I asked him to photograph me with my new guitar, using my camera. I showed him a photo I had taken of a recording artist I worked with late last year. I told him I wanted to generally emulate that shot.

 

It was somewhat humorous 'cause I was barkin' orders at him about what aperture setting to use because I wanted a shallow depth of field, with the head of the guitar in-focus and me out.

 

He commences to hollerin' at me, "Don't be tellin' me how to shoot!" -- The facial expression here is me laughing while he's scolding me.

Ho imparato

Che crescere

non significa fare solo l'anniversario

Che il silenzio

è la migliore risposta quando si sente una

stupidaggine

Che lavorare

non significa solo guadagnare soldi

Che gli amici

si conquistano mostrando chi realmente siamo

Che i veri amici

stanno con noi fino alla fine

Che le cose peggiori

spesso si nascondono

attraverso una buona apparenza

Che la natura

è la cosa più bella di questa vita

Che quando penso di sapere tutto

ancora non so' niente

Che un giorno

può essere più importante di molti anni

Che si può conversare con le stelle

Che ci si può confessare alla luna

Che si può viaggiare nell'infinito

Che è salutare sentire buone parole

Che anche a essere gentili fa bene alla salute

Che è necessario sognare

Che si può essere bambini tutta la vita

Che il nostro essere è libero

Che Dio non vieta nulla in nome dell'amore

Che giudicarsi non è importante quando

realmente importa è la pace interiore

E finalmente ho appreso... che non si può

morire per imparare a vivere.

The photographer of this page

 

On a rather dull Lakeland day back in 2001 up on the summit of the wonderfully named Crinkle Crags I am seen here combining a couple of my hobbies and taking a picture of Mark sat taking in the views down towards Eskdale. As can be seen Crinkle Crags like the neighbouring Bowfell has a rather lumpy summit. It also looks like In had put my drink of hot tea down to take my picture.

 

This picture would have been taken by one of two other hiking pals that day, either Stu or John Godwin.

I'm so excited right now because I finally have new photos to upload and everything has been going quite well university wise :)

 

I'll be back with more photos and some proper descriptions soon, I promise. But otherwise, this is me chilling at my friend's house on Saturday afternoon during the sunset. The light was so amazing there. And I went to go watch the new 300 movie.

Happy B-day Marc!!

 

I have a very little time, I'm very busy, I would have liked to spend more time on something more original and worked; instead of that, I wanted to give you a self-portrait hoping that some day we have a beer together, though I don’t like self-portraits, (this is the most close I could get to a self-portrait hahaha). However, I have done this with all the affection and friendship for one of my best friends on flickr. I wish you a happy birthday. Have a great day with all your wonderful family.

 

Happy Birthday dear Marc.

 

A big hug and congratulations on behalf also of all my "girls"

 

Ps. How about your new lens??

-----------------------------------------

Feliz Cumpleaños!!

 

Tengo poco tiempo, estoy muy liado últimamente, quería haberte dedicado algo más trabajado y original, en su lugar he querido regalarte un autorretrato con la esperanza de algún día tomarnos una cerveza cara a cara, aunque no me gusta hacerme autorretratos, esto es lo más parecido a uno jajaja, eso si, lo he hecho con todo el afecto y amistad para uno de mis mejores amigos en flickr.

 

Te deseo muchísimas felicidades, por supuesto que cumplas muchos más que pases un gran día rodeado de tu maravillosa familia.

 

Feliz Cumpleaños querido Marc. Un abrazo muy fuerte y muchas felicidades de parte también de todas mis “chicas”

Searching for a place

A place to be

Where no one nowhere

Will question me

 

Just a simple photo of myself since I'm new to this!

My turn for a Thursday Thirteen. Inspired by so many of you, and you, among others.

 

1. I am left-handed, and I suppose left-footed too (based on my 10+ years of playing soccer).

 

2. I also figure skated for 10 years growing up, and competed regionally in freestyle, dance, and precision team. I still miss it to this day, and hope maybe one day to go back and coach.

 

3. I’ve never broken, sprained, or strained anything. My worst “injury” happened at the skating rink, another girl landed a jump in front of me, and sliced open my shin. I still have the scar, I should post that one day, haha.

 

4. I am way too sensitive for my own good. It doesn’t take much for me to shed a tear. Wuss.

 

5. I really, really, really hate when people tell me what to do. To the point that when someone does, I tend to do the exact opposite, just to prove a point. I haven’t yet figured out if this is a good or bad thing.

 

6. I love watching Disney tv. Yes, all those teeny-bopper shows like Hannah Montana, The Suite Life, High School Musical, I KNOW! I can’t help it. My brain needs a break sometimes, and watching Miley Cyrus singing with Dolly Parton is just the ticket.

 

7. I am a certified shopaholic. I love shopping, for anyone or anything. I could spend days at the mall or online browsing. My husband loves this.

 

8. I have this love affair with music. I love all kinds, and love sharing it with people. I love “finding” new music and making mixes/cds/playlists for friends and family, and have been doing this since elementary school. My entire family’s ipods are loaded onto my computer at home, and they just bring them when they visit, and stock up on new music. Current fave song: Listen

 

9. I have traveled all over Europe, including London, Paris, Rome, Venice, Florence, Madrid, Brussels, Switzerland. However, I haven’t left the US in about 15 years, unless you count my spring break in Jamaica. I’m dying to get back to Europe, it’s a dream of mine to visit Florence again, and to go to Greece.

 

10. Speaking of spring break in Jamaica—I was interviewed for, and had my picture taken, for Rolling Stone magazine’s spring break edition. Don’t worry, I was totally behaving!

 

11. I don’t like cooked fruit. The only pie I like would be of the chocolate cream variety.

 

12. I have mild agoraphobia, I think. I can’t be in crowded spaces at all, I don’t do well with this. Heart starts racing, and I get very hot and dizzy. Makes going to concerts (see #8) very interesting.

 

13. I bartended my way through college, and still to this day think it was the best job I ever had. Nothing was more fun than getting paid good money to hang out with my friends, dance on the bar, and drink. Did I mention I got paid to do that?

 

With so much wear and tear it appears more like a relief map of the London underground

Josh Turner, " Me and God" : www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGZV2Sr1sTg&feature=related

There ain't nothing that can't be done

By me and God

Ain't nobody come in between me and God

One day we'll live together

Where the angels trod

Me and God

 

Early in the morning talking it over

Me and God

Late at night talking it over

Me and God

You could say where like two peas in a pod

Me and God

 

He's my Father

He's my friend

The beginning

And the end

He rules the world

With a staff and rod

We're a team

Me and God

 

I am weak and he is strong

Me and God

He forgives me when I'm wrong

Me and God

He's the one I lean on

When life gets hard

Me and God

 

He's my Father

He's my friend

The beginning

And the end

He rules the world

With a staff and rod

We're a team

Me and God

 

He rules the world

With a staff and rod

We're a team

Me and God

 

We're a team

Me and God

taken on a visit to the london eye - this display was at the bottom of the support for the eye and lit from underneath by a nice blue light.

 

You can just make out the new Hungerford pedestrian bridge in the background on the left and there is a kids play area just to the right of centre to entertain the little devils whilst you wait for your turn on the eye

 

Looks rather spectacular On Black

什麼時候兒時玩伴都離我遠去

什麼時候身旁的人已不再熟悉

人潮的擁擠 拉開了我們的距離

沈寂的大地 在靜靜的夜晚默默的哭泣

什麼時候哇鳴蟬聲都成了記憶

什麼時候家鄉變得如此的擁擠

高樓大廈 到處聳立

七彩霓虹把夜空染得如此的俗氣

誰能告訴我 誰能告訴我

是我們改變了世界

還是世界改變了我和你
