Mamiya C330, Kodak VPS (Kodak Vericolor III) film. Recovered this from one of my faded negatives and it still had that ominous color that comes before a storm.
Although not really a difficult approach, there's something pretty dramatic about descending below a tree line in order to make a landing. The strip itself is very bumpy with overgrown grass, rocks and large ruts in it. Can make keeping the aircraft in a straight line a little tricky.
Bus on Shoulder allows authorized buses to use the highway shoulder when traffic drops below 35 miles per hour. Our new Bus on Shoulder Pilot Project will operate in the north and southbound directions of I-5 between I-205 and Elligsen Road in Wilsonville.
First up a shout out to Suga Kane whose idea for a project and I hijacked for my last two strangers. Check out his stream and steal his ideas too!!!
During the conversation with my previous two strangers we overheard the sounds of another instrument. We thought it was a violin, so after leaving the pipe players I went off in search of the sound.
Nishimoto-san was playing in amongst the trees, as I approached the shape of the tree seemed to match that of his Saxaphone, which I really liked and I stood taking a few shots while he played.
It seemed an ever and then he stopped to empty the spit out his tube and I took the opporunity to approach him.
Me: "Hi I just wanted to show this picture I took of you. The shape of the tree and your sax are perfect"
Nishimoto "Wow that looks great, I wish I could have a copy of that"
Me: " Well do you have a computer, if so here is my card, follow this link and you can get them"
Nishimoto "Unforunately I don't, but I am always playing here if you come by again"
At this point, it struck me that he might be homeless as with previous strangers and indeed with a lot of elderly people I meet in parks, it is very difficult to tell,
I asked him how long he been playing and he replied it was too many years to remember. At this point the conversation didn't seem to be going anywhere, so I asked if I could take his picture, he smiled and as he raised my camera he just started to play.
At first I couldn't work out if it was OK, but I decided to take one anyway and he didnt seem to mind. I shot about four or five pictures before he stopped playing and put down his saxaphone on the crate he was sat upon.
"Actually as you can speak Japanese, I have a favour to ask you"
"Sure, what is it"
He reached into his bag and pulled out two Jazz books containing songs by all the greats. He showed me all the song names where in English and asked what they meant. Thus began our conversation for over ten minutes we went through songs and tried to get a meaning in Japanese. This was no easy task for me, the song titles deep meanings and without lyrics to guide me sometimes too tough,
"How about this one - extraction"
"Errr well extraction means pulling out a tooth, but I would guess it means being taken away from somewhere or someone in this case"
The books had many different song titles some easy and some more difficult. He seemed happy he could finally have some meaning to his music and for me, this was one of the most meaningful conversations I have had. Finally I could give something of value back for taking his time.

It is reported that once, Imam Hasan approached the Holy Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ والہ وسلم and climbed on his shoulders. A person, (who was present) remarked, “O blessed son! What a nice steed you have”. In reply, the Holy Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ والہ وسلم declared, “And how nice a rider (too).” [Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith no. 3809, Vol 5, Page 432]
This is a photograph from the second annual Duleek & District Athletic Club (D&DAC) "Indaver Duleek 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Duleek, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 17th August 2014 at 10:00. The road race event was the first event of the town's annual Duleek Fair Day which is held at this time every August. In 2013 Duleek & District Athletic Club decided to launch an annual road race. In 2013 over 500 runners attended which represented a very impressive achievement for a new club and a new race. The feedback was very positive from all quarters: a good route, professional approach to organisation, excellent goody-bags and post race refreshments and family entertainment. The club surpassed itself in 2014 with a superb race - with every aspect of the race professionally attended to. Just under 500 runners attended this year. Duleek & District Athletic Club (D&DAC) was founded in March 2012 with the principal aim of promoting athletics in the village and environs of Duleek. The Club’s purpose is to facilitate the enjoyment of athletics in a fun and social environment. Overall the conditions were very favourable for road racing - there was a fairly strong headwind for runners to contend with for the first 3KM along with some undulating countryside. However the final 5KM had a tail wind a good deal of downhill to make for a more enjoyable final half of the race. Everyone at Duleek & District Athletic Club and the local community must be congratulated at their work and organisation today. This race is likely to grow quickly over the next few years.
This photograph is part of a larger set of photographs which was taken today at the event - the majority of these photographs are from the finish line: Please see the full set on the Flickr album at Set from today: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157646478274516/ - This set contains shots of participants up to a finish time of 60 minutes.

What is the race route?
The race starts just beyond Duleek GAA Club on the Navan Duleek road (the R150). The first two KM are on this road until the course makes a right turn and heads northward through Kellystown and Rahill until just after 4KM the course turns right again and due east to begin the return to Duleek. This brings the runners through the large townland of Downstown. Up to the 9KM mark the race has been predominantly ran on scenic rural roads until the race joins the R15O Navan Road again and proceeds directly up the main street of Duleek for the finish.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
