Dawn on the Karakoram Highway, Rawalpindi to Gilgit.
Karakoram is a Turkic term meaning black gravel.
The Karakoram Highway, also known as the Friendship Highway in China, was built by the governments of Pakistan and China. It was started in 1959 and was completed and opened to the public in 1979.
About 810 Pakistanis and about 200 Chinese workers lost their lives, mostly in landslides and falls, while building the highway. Over 140 Chinese workers who died during the construction are buried in the Chinese cemetery in Gilgit.
The route of the Karakoram Highway traces one of the many paths of the ancient Silk Road.
Shot in the North of India back in 2009, finally digitalised in 2015.
I used a Nikon FE2 with (sometimes defective - sorry ) Fuji 200. For most of the photographs, the lens was the Zenitar 16mm.
Most photos are of Mei, my wife and muse. 200 million views and counting!

I was honored to receive a request from Leonardo B. a gentleman in Portugal, to post on his blog with a poem he wrote, inspired by this picture.
A translation is provided below as is a link to the blog.
“If I walk, so much I move away
and so much I was ordered to the silence
I will not bother the shadow of the morning
that there is somewhat, just now, it was invented for the world.
If I walk, so much I approach
of the hand that could compose the short cuts,
the used calmness where I wake my step
the small tracing from this tower into the sky, the tree
which cries an unstable blow, the leaf, the very little skin
what is detained lifted, on air
in the short corner of the house where it wakes the star;
And if I stop, I’m from the world, the leaf of paper,
the voice that is clarified, clearly, the detail and
If I walk, I am, drawned
and I wake the horizon where nothing is definite,
where in the world, the centre is here or there,
and the whole is a thing what so much it does,
and it does make sense,
also the highest of the places can be deep
and here, where I advance it so many, what I move away
I bringing myself back to the shadow that waited for it so much in the morning
that there is somewhat, such a little, before the star
one more beginning was still of the world.
If I walk,
so many what was I, would it happens again.”
Feliz Ano Novo !!!!
Happy New Year !!!!
Feliz Ano Nuevo !!!!
"Para você ganhar um belíssimo Ano Novo
cor de arco-íris, ou da cor da sua paz,
Ano Novo sem comparação como todo o tempo já vivido
(mal vivido ou talvez sem sentido)
para você ganhar um ano
não apenas pintado de novo, remendado às carreiras,
mas novo nas sementinhas do vir-a-ser,
novo até no coração das coisas menos percebidas
(a começar pelo seu interior)
novo espontâneo, que de tão perfeito nem se nota,
mas com ele se come, se passeia,
se ama, se compreende, se trabalha,
você não precisa beber champanha
ou qualquer outra birita,
não precisa expedir nem receber mensagens
(planta recebe mensagens?
passa telegramas?).
Não precisa fazer lista de boas intenções
para arquivá-las na gaveta.
Não precisa chorar de arrependido
pelas besteiras consumadas
nem parvamente acreditar
que por decreto da esperança
a partir de janeiro as coisas mudem
e seja tudo claridade, recompensa,
justiça entre os homens e as nações,
liberdade com cheiro e gosto de pão matinal,
direitos respeitados, começando
pelo direito augusto de viver.
Para ganhar um ano-novo
que mereça este nome,
você, meu caro, tem de merecê-lo,
tem de fazê-lo de novo, eu sei que não é fácil,
mas tente, experimente, consciente.
É dentro de você que o Ano Novo
cochila e espera desde sempre."
(Carlos Drummond de Andrade)

In the middle of the action and later the smoke. Special thanks to Augustine and her family for the invitation!
The start of the fireworks kicked off with the roar of the F-111 over the city.
I decided to shoot with a fisheye lens to capture the ambience and get a wide view. The white lines decorating the sky are the first run-through of the F-111's unfortunately without the after burn but it was still spectacular to view. (I suppose it would have overexposed my shot anyway...)
I spent some quality time chippin this one out. my crew and I strarted this wall close to 2 months ago, now were at the closing chapter. I cant wait to get a connecting shot to share with yall.
Papaye était un chat facétieux que nous aimions beaucoup. Champion pour se percher comme ici sur la galerie au-dessus des rangements de cuisine, pour grimper sur le toit en quelques secondes, un bond puis le buisson qui le bordait, et à lui la chasse aux moineaux.
Mais un jour, dans la force de l'âge, il a disparu...

I'm questioning my education
Is my education who i am now?
While you're deciding, i've been finding
Looking around in the here and now
If i've been taught from the beginning
Would my fears now by winning?
I'm questioning my own equation
Is my own equation relevant somehow?
The flags are waving, the news is breaking

In my secret life I would feel more comfortable in my skin. I always feel akward showing any kind of skin, that is just how I am. Maybe some day I will out grow that. I hope that day is not when I am 85 and no one wants to see anyway LOL....
