This theater marquee is in Guadalupe, CA. I took it with my Android phone using an app called Old Roll.
I felt bad for some of my friends in the East Coast as they were experiencing -25 degreeC today while we were having a nicely warm weather. In fact, it has gotten so warm lately that some of the fruit trees started to blossom. This picture was taken on our way back from Mt Diablo State Park this afternoon.
We came cross this beautiful church while we were in Rutland, Vermont. It looks as if it came out of a fairy tale.

Anyone who has been to the QMC Nottingham will recognise the spiral staircase and outer ramp leading up to B Floor. Gotta love the geometric shape. There must have been hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people use it over the years. Long may it continue.

I was fascinated by this art decoration of paper butterflies hanging from the ceiling at the Crate & Barrel store in Walnut Creek. I actually took this shot with colors. It came out just like monochrome.
Ash Tree Seeds (Fraxinus excelsior).
Ash is one of the most common trees in the UK. When fully grown, ash trees can reach a height of 35m. Tall and graceful, they often grow together, forming a domed canopy. The bark is pale brown to grey and fissures as the tree ages.
Ash is dioecious, meaning that male and female flowers typically grow on different trees, although a single tree can also have male and female flowers on different branches. Both male and female flowers are purple and appear before the leaves in spring, growing in spiked clusters at the tips of twigs.
Once the female flowers have been pollinated by wind, they develop into conspicuous winged fruits, or 'keys', in late summer and autumn. They fall from the tree in winter and early spring, and are dispersed by birds and mammals.

Before the Kemosabe Liquid Sunshine, each Sunday afternoon I'd take a long walk through either Astoria or Long Island City. Then, I would arrive back home around 4 or 5pm when I'd prepare an early dinner

I'm on the road back, having concluded my 6th Cycle on Thursday, October 2nd. Tis a bumpy road, mind you, as I am still afflicted with Neuropathy of my feet, which are both numb, allied with swollen ankles. Makes walking quite challenging. I'm feeling how nothing significant will change until mid-November or early December. That's just a hunch and I may be completely wrong. I'm no doctor.
When I first began my Cycles back in early June (2025), I was having my head shaven each week. Then it stopped growing completely, though several days ago I noticed how it has begun to grow again

What a gorgeous day. Bright 🌞 Blue skies. Got up to 44°
I needed to venture up to northern Astoria and purposely left the cane at home, which was kind of stupid. Rode the subway 3 stops, instead of the 4, and opted to walk the remaining. It felt great, though that was my limit after having to scale the subway stairs again. Rome wasn't built in a day. It actually took 700 years. Let us hope my neuropathy heals sooner.
Upon arriving back home, Amazon had delivered to their locker situated in my building's lobby (so dangerous): Yoga mat, resistance bands, and hand weights. I aim to begin slowly. I feel how I might be able to heal myself through stretching, light weights, and walking. Many times exercise can seem repetitive and boring, but the results are so worth it.
By way of my own research: The stretching exercises will strengthen my muscles and increase blood flow and oxygen to the damaged nerve fibers (neuropathy) in my feet, a long-term side effect from my Chemotherapy treatments. The exercises will also reduce the stiffness of my joints and increase flexibility.
Mount Sinai hospital informed me how the peripheral neuropathy may never return to the baseline, and I would like to prove them wrong!
My out to lunch medical team has not offered any advice or recommendations reference anything. They're essentially useless.
BE YOUR OWN ADVOCATE
This low to mid 40's weather looks to be around for a bit, so short walks around my neighborhood will be scheduled, with able and cane in hand.

Here's the design for the upcoming new building. I really like it

History of the site:
After 40 years in business the Neptune Diner located in Astoria, Queens, NYC served its last meal on Sunday, July 29. 2024. The owners claimed they were not given a chance to renew their lease, because the property will soon be turned into a residential building.
Since 1983, The Katsihtis brothers have owned the building on Astoria Boulevard but not the land, which was sold in 2018 for over $10 million.
The brothers also had a 35-year lease which expired in 2019. But since then, they were not able to come to a long-term agreement with the landlord.

But that's what Long Island City/Astoria needs is another apartment building. It's already so overbuilt, it's ridiculous. Yet they keep tearing them down and building new ones, many of which are luxury rentals. The neighborhood is losing its character to steel and glass.

Ash Tree Seeds (Fraxinus excelsior).
Bunches of keys can be removed from branches in October, or even throughout the winter, before they are dispersed by the wind. Simply pull them gently from the tree with your fingers.
If you have picked green keys (or even those that have begun to turn brown) take care to store them in ‘breathable’ bags. They still have a high moisture content, which can cause the seeds to heat up if they don’t have adequate ventilation.

We stopped by Fort Knox Historic State Park on our way back from Acadia National Park. The entrance fee also covered the admission to the towering observatory of the nearby Penobscot Narrows Bridge.

I like corners, and especially ones with crosswalks as there's always some sort of activity.
--
Many years ago that corner building had been a movie theatre.
---
The Astoria Theater, now home to a New York Sports Club gym, began as a vaudeville theater in November, 1920, on the corner of Steinway Street and 30th Avenue. Within three years it was converted into a 2,900-seat movie palace. The Astoria Theater underwent two splits—divided into four theaters in 1977, with two more screens added in 1981—to become the more modern UA Astoria Sixplex, which closed on Dec. 26, 2001. The remains of the marquee and façade are still visible.

This afternoon while I was walking along Second Avenue, in the Kips Bay neighborhood of Manhattan, I took notice of this window on the opposite side of the avenue and felt this overwhelming need to photograph it. Impromptu inspiration many times materializes like magic, out of thin air. And whenever it does, I feel a short-term emotional connection with the subject. It's such a dynamic feeling, and one that I have not experienced since before I underwent chemotherapy treatments last Summer.
My treatments concluded in early October, and yesterday with the window was a clear indicator of how my overall healing is progressing in the right direction. if anything, this experience has certainly taught me to become more focused on stuff, and to slow down and not to get manic over anything. Essentially, take it easy, Newell. You're going to be fine

My hunch paid off as this structure was completely torn down. I've been photographing the back of the building, as the front faces a police station, and not many people understand why I photograph construction. Several times I've been asked if I was an insurance surveyor. That one makes sense, as many times I'm dressed from work. No, just a hobbyist photographer. Essentially it's my documenting the pre/post gentrification of my neighborhood

It's actually more fun watching the crowd than watching Firefall for me this year. The excitement and anticipation were slowly building up and in the end we were all slightly disappointed. For some, it was their first time and thought the faint red on Horsetail Falls was spectacular. Some photogs even got there early in the morning to claim their spots while missing other offerings in the valley. I think the best way is to bring a bike if you can. Park your car at a spot near the Firewall viewing area and bike around the valley until the viewing time comes. Over the years, I have found biking is the most enjoyable experience in Yosemite.
I took this shot on my mobile phone, of a fella on his mobile phone, beside a sign saying "No Mobile Phones" :)

I generally do not use mobile phones for my photography, preferring to use a dedicated camera; but on this occasion, I only had the phone with me, so here is an exception.
This photo was taken at the Harbourfront Theatre in Summerside, PEI. The band on stage is called Rum Ragged and they are a folk group hailing from the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. They put on an exceptionally good show. The music was superb, the personalities that made up the band were likeable, and the audience was engaged.
This photo was taken with a Pixel 8a. While I had the camera set to record both JPEG and raw files, the raw versions were very poor, to say the least, and were not supported at all by my raw editor of choice anyway. Thus, this is essentially an out of camera JPEG image which was only very slightly adjusted in DxO Photolab. All that said, the resulting photo isn't terrible and does at least give a sense of how the performers looked on stage with the colourful lighting employed for the show.
