Do Anything You Wanna Do
Eddie and the Hot Rods
‘Why don't you ask them what they expect from you?
Why don't you tell them what you are gonna do?
You'll get so lonely, maybe it's better that way
It ain't you only, you got something to say
Do anything you wanna do’
Final showing of my early attempts at railway photography. Sometimes on Flickr the photographer puts ‘best viewed large’, well I think with this one it’s ‘best viewed small’!
This one is from 1979, a year when ‘Deltic Mania’ started to take off with crowds of enthusiasts gathered at York each day, especially in the school holidays. Here we see 55012 Crepello at York having arrived on the 12:05 from Liverpool. Later in the day it worked an excursion back to King’s Cross.
I chose the song because I think that’s how I felt as a kid, and to an extent still do! As a starter in photography you don’t know not to shoot into the light, not to get lots of people in view, and to end up with grain the size of a golf ball. But who cares? It was my picture and I was gonna do anything I wanted to do!

Ah the 2014 - 2015 era of CN, when anything and everything would show up.
Here we have London - Toronto train A43431 16 about to pass under Garden Avenue with CN 2015, and CN 2563 on point
If you know anything about photography, you'll know this exposure is almost impossible. In the old film days you could dodge and burn in the darkroom to get this, but this is the digital age. This is a composite of the moon I shot tonight at IS) 125, shutterspeed 1/1000 and f4.5. The trees I shot the other day at sunset.
It's hard to imagine anything looking better in evening light than orange and brown, especially when the colors are on a passenger train. The Hoosier State has rolled into Dyer early again on its way to Indy, allowing us to see this beauty in golden light.
For TOTW: Movie Lines….
Joel: I can't see anything that I don't like about you.
Clementine: But you will! But you will. You know, you will think of things. And I'll get bored with you and feel trapped because that's what happens with me.
Joel: Okay.
Clementine: [pauses] Okay.
From: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
I fucking love this movie. I swear I will sit there and watch it alone with myself and constantly go over in my mind all my past loves which are no longer there. Although I don’t identify their particular relationship with any that I have had – I still feel.
The movie is about a couple that fell deeply in love. And after they broke up, one of them decided to have a medical procedure done to ERASE her entire memory of their whole love affair to avoid the torment and anguish that goes on after you break up with someone you love.
But it’s perfectly executed… the movie I mean – at least for me. One of the most perfect movies ever put in front of my eyes. The whole concept is brilliant. The dreams and ideas disappearing right before you is just gleaming – almost makes you want to cry and smile at the same time.
Have you ever been part of such a breakup? I know I have – and they are fucking demanding to say the least. Would you erase the entire memory of the whole fucking ordeal just to avoid the pain and emotional suffering you would go through once it had ended?
I can sit here happy and single and free as a bird and say no? I actually wouldn’t change ANYTHING I’ve done nor would I want to erase any memory of it. Every single thing I’ve done, every person I’ve had any dealings with, and every situation I’ve put myself into and out of has shaped me into the person I am today.
I’d deal with it. Time does indeed heal all emotional wounds. Every day things do get a tiny bit better, no matter what the wound is.
It’s funny – although the male character portrayed in this particular movie doesn’t really remind me of myself due to his introvertedness attitude… the female character being so over the top and intensely witty and drama filled girl is someone I would so fucking fall in love with. I so adore this movie and always have.
The photo at hand? Me standing in the underground tunnel separating Oakland from Alameda. You better appreciate this fucker because I illegally hiked down this stupid loud smoggy ass smelly tunnel to take this picture. This is just supposed to be a pedestrian-only walkway for broken down vehicles.

This was taken on Grand, between Greene and Mercer, in the SoHo district of Manhattan.
***************
This set of photos is based on a very simple concept: walk every block of Manhattan with a camera, and see what happens. To avoid missing anything, walk both sides of the street.
That's all there is to it …
Of course, if you wanted to be more ambitious, you could also walk the streets of Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, and the Bronx. But that's more than I'm willing to commit to at this point, and I'll leave the remaining boroughs of New York City to other, more adventurous photographers.
Oh, actually, there's one more small detail: leave the photos alone for a month -- unedited, untouched, and unviewed. By the time I actually focus on the first of these "every-block" photos, I will have taken more than 8,000 images on the nearby streets of the Upper West Side -- plus another several thousand in Rome, Coney Island, and the various spots in NYC where I traditionally take photos. So I don't expect to be emotionally attached to any of the "every-block" photos, and hope that I'll be able to make an objective selection of the ones worth looking at.
As for the criteria that I've used to select the small subset of every-block photos that get uploaded to Flickr: there are three. First, I'll upload any photo that I think is "great," and where I hope the reaction of my Flickr-friends will be, "I have no idea when or where that photo was taken, but it's really a terrific picture!"
A second criterion has to do with place, and the third involves time. I'm hoping that I'll take some photos that clearly say, "This is New York!" to anyone who looks at it. Obviously, certain landscape icons like the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty would satisfy that criterion; but I'm hoping that I'll find other, more unexpected examples. I hope that I'll be able to take some shots that will make a "local" viewer say, "Well, even if that's not recognizable to someone from another part of the country, or another part of the world, I know that that's New York!" And there might be some photos where a "non-local" viewer might say, "I had no idea that there was anyplace in New York City that was so interesting/beautiful/ugly/spectacular."
As for the sense of time: I remember wandering around my neighborhood in 2005, photographing various shops, stores, restaurants, and business establishments -- and then casually looking at the photos about five years later, and being stunned by how much had changed. Little by little, store by store, day by day, things change … and when you've been around as long as I have, it's even more amazing to go back and look at the photos you took thirty or forty years ago, and ask yourself, "Was it really like that back then? Seriously, did people really wear bell-bottom jeans?"
So, with the expectation that I'll be looking at these every-block photos five or ten years from now (and maybe you will be, too), I'm going to be doing my best to capture scenes that convey the sense that they were taken in the year 2013 … or at least sometime in the decade of the 2010's (I have no idea what we're calling this decade yet). Or maybe they'll just say to us, "This is what it was like a dozen years after 9-11".
Movie posters are a trivial example of such a time-specific image; I've already taken a bunch, and I don't know if I'll ultimately decide that they're worth uploading. Women's fashion/styles are another obvious example of a time-specific phenomenon; and even though I'm definitely not a fashion expert, I suspected that I'll be able to look at some images ten years from now and mutter to myself, "Did we really wear shirts like that? Did women really wear those weird skirts that are short in the front, and long in the back? Did everyone in New York have a tattoo?"
Another example: I'm fascinated by the interactions that people have with their cellphones out on the street. It seems that everyone has one, which certainly wasn't true a decade ago; and it seems that everyone walks down the street with their eyes and their entire conscious attention riveted on this little box-like gadget, utterly oblivious about anything else that might be going on (among other things, that makes it very easy for me to photograph them without their even noticing, particularly if they've also got earphones so they can listen to music or carry on a phone conversation). But I can't help wondering whether this kind of social behavior will seem bizarre a decade from now … especially if our cellphones have become so miniaturized that they're incorporated into the glasses we wear, or implanted directly into our eyeballs.
If you have any suggestions about places that I should definitely visit to get some good photos, or if you'd like me to photograph you in your little corner of New York City, please let me know. You can send me a Flickr-mail message, or you can email me directly at ed-at-yourdon-dot-com
Stay tuned as the photo-walk continues, block by block ...

An angel figurine I acquired with several other figurines. I used a little creative editing to give it a more ethereal look and feel.
“Bertie, the man is looking quite befuddled this morning.”
“I hadn’t noticed Sky, but I think you may be right.”
“Do you think it is anything we have done?”
“No, it can’t be after all we haven’t done anything yet today, much...”
“What do you think Posh?”
“Well, it is hard to say for sure but I think it might be something to do with the clocks.”
“What are clocks, Posh?”
“They are things that measure hooman time. Please don’t ask how they work for I have no idea, but I have noticed that he seems to be going around to change the direction of the pointy things they have on all the clocks he has this morning.”
“Maybe, it is because they are all wrong.” Suggested Bertie.
“No, they can’t all be wrong surely, Bertie. No, he is being quite precise in what he is doing for a change. I wonder if this is happening all over the hooman world, what do you think Posh?”
“It is possible, hoomans are silly enough to do something like that. For us bears time really doesn’t matter but for some hoomans they tend to live by their clock or watch. They allow time to rule their lives, very sad.”
“That would be awful Posh, imagine having to get up at a particular moment and go somewhere. One might even be in the middle of a jar of honey and have to leave it because the clock says so.” Said Bertie.
“Not on your life, Bertie. The clock could say what it wants, but I wouldn’t be going anywhere until I had finished the honey.” Said Sky firmly.
“Posh, I think it would be nice if we helped the man with the clocks.”
“We could do Bertie, but we don’t really know how to or even what needs to be done.”
“That is no reason not to help Posh. He is our friend and he does allow us to get all our honey and stuff so it would be nice if we helped.”
“I agree Posh, even if we messed up, I do feel he would appreciate the fact that we did try. I mean, he would try and help us if we wanted him to.” Said Sky.
“Look, he has gone out so now is our chance to collect all the clocks and adjust them so it will be a lovely surprise for him when he returns.” Said Bertie looking at his two friends.
“There are a few I doubt we’ll be able to reach.” Said Posh.
“Oh, come on, Posh, we’ll find a way. We can knock them off the wall and try and catch them as they fall. It’ll be such a lovely surprise for him when he comes back.”
The bears sat looking at the clock, watches and screwdrivers feeling really pleased with their efforts.
“I think they look so much nicer now those pointy things are in different directions and not all the same as he had them. Now, the question is do we leave them like this for him to see and have one huge surprise or put them all back and let him have lots of different surprises?” Asked Bertie.
“I vote we put them back, it will be fun to see how long it takes him to notice what we have done for him.” Said Sky.
“What about the small ones that are still in pieces?” Said Posh.
“I found if you jump up and down on them enough, they click back and are fine.” Said Sky. “If not, he has that bangy thing somewhere, we can use that.”
“Come on, hurry up we need to get these back in place before he returns if we are to surprise him.” Urged Posh Bear.
This was taken on Sullivan Street, somewhere south of Houston.

You can't undo anything you've already done, but you can face up to it. You can tell the truth. You can seek forgiveness. And then let God do the rest.
I've not posted anything lately because I haven't been able to make up my mind on what to post. Ever feel that way? To narrow the selection, I decided to select something from the last day or two.
I chose this pretty B&W Warbler that I found yesterday. It was especially nice to capture it in this pose. These bug hunters are usually spotted in a vertical position as they poke within the crevices of trees to find insects.
I appreciate your views very much. Thank you and have a terrific week ahead!

For the next theme, on Saturday January 11, 2025, take a picture of something (person, animal, plant, object) that begins with the letter A. It is called "ANYTHING WITH A!".
English words that start with A are preferred, but you can use a word that starts with A in any language; please always give us an English translation (and, of course, the A-word in its original language).
PLEASE NOTE:
- just adjectives that start with A are not sufficient for this theme (for example: adorable cat) there must be a NOUN that starts with A.
- this theme is about 'nouns' and NOT about 'names' (of people, pets, cities, brands...).
- avoid compound words (words that are made up of two or more smaller words and form their own meaning).
- this theme is NOT about: celebrations, events, emotions, conditions, numbers or letters...
- if what you're portraying is not an object, plant, animal or person (something tangible) then it's NOT okay for the theme!
IMPORTANT: please do not forget to mention the
word you're depicting in the TITLE of your photo.
No, at least not yet. Everything is still picture-perfect. OUR dog is a happy, white, good-smelling puppy.
