Why not take a selfie sitting on the porch with the windows in the background ? I just needed one take after I positioned the camera. The perfect photo for this theme. Sometimes everything falls in place.

Week 4 Theme: Portraits
Compositionally Challenged - Used for CC Week 4 Unity
Me and the camera are one!
this number is a graffiti on the acrylic board.
I don't understand why someone scrawled with this number,but I was so interested it.
was walking around on Whyte Avenue in Edmonton, an interesting neighbourhood with a bit of character and characters. 😄 Jolene approached us as we were staring at the bricks on the sidewalk that were in very bad shape. (must have been a bad batch at the factory) She commented that it did not make her walking here any easier. I noticed her handbag with lots of Beatles buttons. I asked if she minded to be photographed and she, as you can tell from her face, was more than delighted to be photographed. Thanks Jolene

Quante vite viviamo... quante volte si muore? Si dice che nel preciso istante della morte tutti perdiamo 21 grammi di peso, nessuno escluso. Ma quanto c'è in 21 grammi? Quanto va perduto? Quando li perdiamo quei 21 grammi? Quanto se ne va con loro? Quanto si guadagna? Quanto si guadagna? 21 grammi... il peso di 5 nichelini uno sull'altro... il peso di un colibrì, di una barretta di cioccolato... Quanto valgono 21 grammi?

LSE59 21 curves its way on final approach to Lesperance Street Yard, under the iron work of the MacArthur Bridge. If you want a good write up on the bridge, visit Nomad Of Mid America's pictures with a great description of the bridge. With him around, I don't have to spend time and energy getting into detail. He does the dirty work for me. Work smarter, not harder.

The first M-21 performed numerous tests flights with the drone attached. On most of these the drone's intake and exhaust were covered using aerodynamic fairings, that would be explosively blown off before launch. In practice this never worked without the drone suffering damage. On my model it doesn't have them. The second M-21 had more powerful engines than the first and it actually performed the only D-21 launches. Unfortunately, after three successful launches, the fourth ended in tragedy, with the drone striking the launch aircraft over the Pacific. Both crew members ejected, but the launch control officer, Ray Torrick, drowned in the ocean when his pressure suit filled with water. The first jet currently resides in the Seattle Museum of Flight, where I saw it in real life back in 2016.
This picture is #21 in the 100 Strangers Project - Round 3
Was visiting family in Mumbai, India for a short vacation last month. The incessant but necessary rains really dampened a lot of plans making general travel within the city challenging - especially with the traffic. But still had the odd opportunity to walk around seeking strangers for the project. The next few encounters are, in no particular order, from my Mumbai days.

Meet Shaveta
Shaveta was in fact the first stranger I photographed during my visit to Mumbai, Having just traveled back home after a few years was still toying with the idea of moving the project further but was still adjusting to the newer environment. so was quite hesitant.
Was at a mall and while stopping by the food court for a quick lunch came across Shaveta with a a tall good looking dude who I later learned was her brother Nishanth. Its quite easy to the young lady is very beautiful and can grab attention even in a crowd. with her fabulous personality. And did I mention the sharp eyes? I waited for a while for them to finish lunch before approaching them at their table. As challenging as this is, its a little tougher when your subject has a 6 and half feet companion. But after hearing me out for a few minutes, Shaveta agreed with a smile to be on the project.
Shaveta is a doctor by profession - specializing in Ayurveda. A multi-faceted personality she is a artist at heart and has varied interests. She loves dancing, acting reading, writing and modelling. In fact she was in Mumbai for an audition for lending her voice for a commercial campaign. She also loves travelling - recently she had been to Nagaland.
What is her favorite quality of herself - that she can keep a positive attitude and ability to be happy at all times. If I cant be happy, then how can I treat others as a doctor was her simple yet deeply insightful observation.
We then proceeded to find a few spots in the mall to shoot a few quick pictures - although the overhead lights did make it a challenge. Funnily the mall security allows mobile pictures but thinks anything with a DSLR as a commercial shoot - so we had to move fast for a few clicks by the window. But Shaveta was confidence personified with her posing and expressions. Turns out that she was infact a winner of the Glitter Miss India pageant in 2014. I can't help giving myself kudos finding such standout strangers - jokes aside there definitely was something special about her even from a distance.
Nishant was a big help providing valuable suggestions and encouraging his sister. In fact we did a few quick clicks of the young man as we waited outside for his cab to arrive and was easy to see that modelling possibly runs in the family.
Thank you Shaveta (and Nishant) for all your time and trust doing these picture It was great making your acquaintance and I quite enjoyed photographing you. I wish you both a lot of success and best wishes for your future
