Time passes slowly here on the grounds of a former state hospital for the incurable insane. Long forgotten by a busy world, these humble people lie resting from their labors and torments awaiting the dawning of another age. The wind blows softly through the grass as the summer insects begin to sing a chorus with their beautiful songs. Perhaps they remember the events that unfolded here so long ago. A mute man whose name nobody knew used to hand dig these graves. Eventually he was given the name A. Bookbinder because of the work he did at the hospital of rebinding books. Old Book, as he was affectionately called by the doctors and nurses of the asylum, was in the habit of laying his shovel aside as they interred a body and he would begin crying profusely and wailing aloud for the deceased as he leaned against this old elm tree. The day eventually came when Old Book himself died and was laid to rest. As they lowered the casket into the grave the multitude standing by in reverent silence saw an apparition suddenly appear leaning against the old elm … it was wailing. Over the years many people have claimed to hear the sound of someone wailing when visiting the graveyard. Old Book is still crying for the hapless people buried here.
Taken by the west pier at Whitby. Update on our business plans,
I’m going to design some products featuring the seagulls of Whitby, it will be called ‘Beaky Blinders', I’m thinking a seagull calendar will be a good idea, I have hundreds of seagull captures I can use and can easily muster up 12 cringeworthy seagull puns. Wish me luck, dear friends.
I have a gofundme page to help raise capital needed. Any donations or shares would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you to those that had already helped out. Much love to all ❤️
Fuji X100F with its 23/2 lens at F11. Of course, the image is different from 'Thinking aloud 1'. Post-processing is also different. Comparing both images on purely aesthetically grounds, I feel that conventional B+W has produced the more interesting one (namely this one). What it means to me is that I will reserve infrared photography for special tasks with carefully selected or arranged circumstances.
Fuji X-E3 plus 35/1.4 at F5.6 plus a 720nm infrared filter. Shutter at approx. 1.4 sec. Compare this with the other image (Thinking aloud 2).

Invictus
BY WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.

A moment, a love, a dream aloud
A kiss, a cry, our rights, our wrongs...

Still continuing my color journey, again farther away than last time. I see that slowing down is even more important with Ektar, since tending to see things in B&W gives a latitude of what to ignore, if that makes any sense. But it's a great exercise to observe once again. Thanks to those flickeranians who continue to inspire!

Wond'ring aloud
How we feel today
Last night sipped the sunset
My hand in her hair
We are our own saviours
As we start
Both our hearts
Beating life
Into each other
Wond'ring aloud
Will the years treat us well?
As she floats in the kitchen
I'm tasting the smell
Of toast as the butter runs
Then she comes
Spilling crumbs
On the bed
And I shake my head
And it's only the giving
That makes you
What you are
