Shiprow, Aberdeen - to raise awareness of and celebrate the ‘umbrella’ term of neurodiversity, which includes ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyspraxia. The project runs until September.
Hundreds of brightly-coloured brollies have been suspended in the air above the market and beyond in Newark, to raise awareness and acceptance of neurological conditions.
The project was officially launched in partnership with the ADHD Neurodiversity Foundation. About one in ten people have dyslexia, one in 20 have ADHD and one in 60 are autistic and together with other conditions that makes up about a quarter of the population of this planet.
Quote….“In our culture, historically we have often considered those people as being less intelligent and less able, but we know that isn’t true. Over 30% of chief executives, entrepreneurs and self employed people have ADHD or dyslexia.”
The umbrellas have been installed by Newark Creates, a three year cultural programme in Newark and will remain in place until September.
ADHD fly, would not sit still for a minute. I ran around for 30min trying to capture a shot... People in the park thought I lost my mind..lol.
I forgot to upload this before I went away - edited in Photoshop and Corel. The location pin is off the umbrella display for ADHD awareness (lbndaily.co.uk/multi-coloured-umbrella-display-returns-li...) - the advertising hoarding was found somewhere around the corner :)

This is the last day of my summer vacation from work and I've had a really busy one. I went back home to spend time with my family in the first part, took care of some medical appointments, photographed two music festivals, went to Scotland, and on the days I was in Chicago, I started running at least ten miles along the lakefront path every morning. I'm honestly going to miss that part of my day the most.
I was never a runner before (though I do use an elliptical regularly and am an all year round bicyclist) but I love listening to music and seeing the clouds and the waves...just being a part of something vaster. It calms me down to witness it all every day. It sounds odd but checking on the sky to make sure it's still there...quite reassuring. At the end of the day, no matter how poorly it is going, we have to realize that the sky, the water, the mountains still exist for us to behold. How lucky we all are!
I always have some anxiety about returning to work. It's like the 4am scaries x 100. Of course, I don't get paid during my summers off so, even though I appreciate them, I do have a mortgage to pay. I think the hardest thing for me is just the neurological adjustment that I go through getting back into a work schedule but it's also intensely difficult for kids to come back, especially if they have some major screen addictions. Interacting with other humans in a learning context where they are asked to do things they don't necessarily find instantly gratifying is honestly less and less appealing to them as the years go by. When I first started my job in 2001, this was not as big of an issue and most students wanted to please their teachers. Now, it is almost as if many don't care about people in the real world at all and I can almost see a separation in young brains between a "screen world" and a "real world," the latter mattering far less to them.
Anyway, I have written before about how scary this trend is to me...and studies have shown with young children especially how they lose the number of words acquired with increased screen use and we're seeing a lot of decreased empathy in the schools towards others as well as an increase in violence when the screen is taken away or when kids are seeking out an immediate reaction. This is going to really change our world and I don't know if this trend will ever stop. What I am seeing as most common is that parents just hand over the screens for hours, even for young children and ADHD is also a really pressing concern. The children who have the most prominent ADHD challenges are the same children whose parents will tell me they are typically on screens for sometimes 6 hours a day (!)
So, these are the thoughts that go through my head when I have to readjust every school year. Lots of things I cannot control of all sizes. I'm going to ask the sky today what it's thoughts are but maybe the sky will be too busy moving all of those clouds around.

A title that, despite looking like a poorly worded ADHD-infused sentence, actually describes this scene quite well:
This BNSF Gevo has become the DPU on the Short Line's outbound slab train. An SCIH engineer was on board this unit less than five minutes ago, but a company pickup truck has picked him up and (extremely recklessly, per the usual) drove back to a CN unit waiting in the plant on the new pit track I shared a few uploads ago. They will tie onto the other end of the train, cut their air in, get the DPU fence up and linked, and be on their way to Stockton to hand the train off to a CN crew.
And, Front St. is the crossing you see in the background. The circle of life.
An art installation called the Umbrella Project 2018 featuring 200 brightly coloured umbrellas, hanging over Church Alley in Liverpool, was to raise awareness of ADHD and autism.
♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥
I took this SL self portrait to increase ADHD awareness and express how it feels like for me to experience the inattention & distraction & lack of self-awareness aspects of this neuro-biological condition. #brainfog #ADHD #inattention #distraction #ADHDAwarenessMonth
I have waited a year - or have put off for a year - posting some of the following aloes. Why? Well, speaking as a poster child for ADHD, I didn't want you to get bored. Whatever the problem, I always found it helpful to project!
Second, as I walked the Garden daily, I kept getting sidetracked. About this time last year, I was really "involved" in meat eaters like Stapelia hirsuta (flic.kr/p/2maAPj9) which are already a month late in blooming. Then, there was my onging affairs with the short-lived Hoodia (singlular - flic.kr/p/2m941b5), already well past it's two week bloom.
Third, I was hoping to have found a software that would allow me to do dyptychs and without having to pay for another program. ACDSee provides everything I need except the occasional dyptych or triptych.
There isnot much to say about aloe that 90% of you already know: Aloe is a genus containing over 560 species of flowering succulent plants. The most widely known species is Aloe vera, or "true aloe". It is called this because it is cultivated as the standard source for assorted pharmaceutical purposes. Other species, such as Aloe ferox, are also cultivated or harvested from the wild for similar applications.
This furry Aloe lavranosii is endemic to Yemen and can be found at the corner of Bancroft and Ygncio Avenues here. It does nothing for dry skin, and I, personally, don't like to eat furry things. So I - and perhaps you - should just enjoy it as one of the most beautiful and unique of all 560 species of aloe.
Oh, yes, and it is was the hardest of any flowers - ever - to photograph with a dark background. (I always leave the EXIF because it *might* be of value for "specialty" shots. It *will* be of value if you have any camera from the Canon SX10 to SX50.)

Artwork installation above a Liverpool Street. The goal behind this initiative is to raise awareness and understanding, encouraging discussion around Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and autism.
Say you have ADHD without saying you have ADHD- So I took this picture a month ago to showcasee Midwest's Essentia set because I won a fatpack in the giveaway. The Essentia set was part of the FLF birthday bash and I wanted to get a jump on fall decorating lol. Now its the end of September and I am behind the fall decor trend ;) oh well, Enjoy

these are behind some construction fencing, somewhat near the waterfront. i've always been a big fan of faro.
If you don’t push your ADHD, it won’t push you either.
My own insights strongly point toward AuDHD.
If you want certainty, a diagnosis can help — if it’s something you want and feel ready for.
Flow can feel like bliss. From experience: that’s exactly when it needs care.

It's time for cats. We ended up in a quiet, beautiful, drowning in green resort in Crete in Kalo Chorio where there was a large herd of semi-wild cats. Fed by tourists in the summer, they appeared whenever we went out to eat something on the terrace. In winter, they had to support themselves in part by hunting. Beautifully colored, slender, some skinny, especially the beautiful "2D cat" feeding two kitten, as we called her because of her slimness. Son, a cat lover, upon arriving at the place stated with a blissful expression: “I'm in heaven.”
Today I am in full Bunny Mode. I hopped over to this beach cafe with my fellow bunny and little kitty for a day of Coworking at this dreamy location. Butter Beach has everything you could want for a day (and night!) out with friends. Or come solo and people watch. I will definitely be visitng this place again!
While cruising along behind cupcake, my ADHD got the best of me and I was distracted by this Green Heron pointing to something in the bayou. Truth is that he was actually on the verge of plucking another fish from the bayou to ease his/her hunger pains. He made numerous strikes such as this and scored on each attempt. He was very accurate and proficient from this old branch. I will add that I really was following the large alligator when I paddled up on this Greenie fishing. Greenies are always THE #1 priority when I am paddling. More entertaining than a pack of monkeys. Photo taken on Horsepen Bayou.

Annually despite all the changes in our lives, my son and I go every Spring to the New York International Auto Show that’s held at the Jacob Javitz Convention Center in what used to be part of Hell’s Kitchen, he’s 24 now, and automobiles & sports have been something we’ve shared since he was young. It’s one of our things. The New York International Auto Show is the oldest auto show in the US. I started attending in the late 1970’s with my uncle, cousin and my brother when the event was held at the old New York Coliseum that was torn down to build the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle.
So why am I posting an image of the Ford GT sports car now in June? Honestly, as a single father, with a full time (and then some) job, both our doggies have had some medical problems (one is still being diagnosed) I don’t get to develop all my digital files as quickly as I’d like. In addition my ADHD as I describe in my profile tends to make me a bit scatter brained in my patterns so I never really have a plan on what I get inspired to post, plus a significant racing event drew me back to the Ford GT.
Ford Motor Company returned to the Le Mans 24 hour race this year in 2016, 50 years after the Ford Motor Company’s thrilling victory over Ferrari at the 35th running of Le Mans under the direction of team owner Carroll Shelby with a Ford/Shelby GT-40 driven by A.J. Foyt and Dan Gurney. Well the father’s day gift Ford got was a victory with the Ford GT in the 2016 edition of 24 hours at Le Mans and ironically once again over Ferrari that finished second so that sort of triggered me to search for my Ford GT captures from this year’s Auto Show. So this beautiful vehicle in yellow was the basis of the winning team cars, so it marks a significant victory in the international event of American muscle and technology. Though these days I move around in a mundane and reliable Subaru Outback, when I was a lad, the Ford Mustang was probably my favorite car and that led me to admire the famous Shelby Mustangs that Texan Carroll Shelby modified for Ford Motor Company and his GT’s. Interestingly enough, the current version doesn’t have the small block V-8’s that Shelby tweaked under the hood, but actually utilizes a 3.5 Liter V-6 that in the stock GT like the one pictured here puts out over 600 horsepower, impressive indeed. I’ve included a link from Ford that gives the background of why Ford got back into racing.

Good morning sweet souls. I decided that once a week the coworking would be at the HQ cafe: here at Fresh Peaks :-) I do love sitting here and it provides a sense of home to the coworking. Once a week it comes home ;-).
Today the light is giving it an other-worldy feel. Great for stepping back a little and seeing things in other ways.
Coworking session now open :-)
If you want a bit of quiet company while you work in RL, hop on down. Comfy seats and fresh coffee abound. :-)

I've been recently diagnosed with ADHD.
It has taken 29 years of my life to get this diagnosis. Despite numerous appointments with medical professionals it was left undiagnosed until recently. These next few weeks and months are going to be challenging though I am confident I can take on the challenge.
Personally, for me, it is comforting to understand that the feelings, toughts, and lack of concentration I feel are because I think differently than the majority of people.
I just want to stress to every single person, mental illness is real, your thoughts and feelings are valid. It is OK to not be OK.

4.1 Terapeutiska indikationer
Metamina är ett licenspreparat. Utskrivande läkare måste i varje enskilt fall ha ett
godkännande från läkemedelsverket. På vissa kliniker finns sk kliniklicenser, vilket tillåter
behandlande läkare att föreskriva läkemedlet utan föregående licensansökan.
Dexamfetamin är ett centralnervöst stimulerande läkemedel, vars huvudindikationer är
behandling av narkolepsi och allvarliga former av hyperaktivitets-, impulsivitetskontroll- och
koncentrationsstörning (AD/HD), där andra åtgärder ej är tillräckliga.
While I was doing my autofocus testing my ADHD took over and I noticed this angel holding a mirror ball. Now, Steven and his Reflections series had given me this idea some time ago, except that he does it with rather large objects that need to be detailed to a T. That's way too much work for me, but polishing a smallish mirror ball, yeah, I can handle that. So, I wiped it with a moist cloth and to finish it off, I used lens cleaner. When you have a hammer everything turns into a nail. So, this is how this came to be.
If you can't sit down and relax while taking a picture, it's just not worth taking :-)
