With a little bit of Lumia lens flare. This really is pushing the limits of this delicate 1020 camera. But I'm not going to lug a heavy camera on an exercise walk.
Another Nightcliff sunrise. Same place as previous shot but just a few minutes earlier and looking easterly.

Just an invitation would have been just fine"

We had all flown back from Aswan that morning, except Shaban, our guide. We had said our goodbyes to him at the airport as he was flying home for a few days before his next job. Upon arriving back in Cairo another rep had met us and Vicky and I said goodbye to the rest of the group. Rather than spend the next 7 hours in an airport hotel bar and departure lounge as they were about to do, we had already decided and booked to stay an extra day and night back at the Crowne Plaza in West Cairo. This would give us an afternoon around the rooftop pool, a nice evening meal together and a chance for Vicky to visit two more Pyramids the next morning. These were out at Dharshur on the edge of the Western Desert, not far from Saqqara and hadn't been on the Jules Verne Itinerary. After a very intense 8 days this would be a nice way to unwind.
So this is the view of West Cairo from the rooftop pool. The concrete line across the middle of the photo is the new Monorail. Opening October 6th 2025, it wasn't yet half finished and it currently has no opening date. (HS2 Anyone?) Next to the GEM, it was the 'other' grand engineering project going on in Cairo at the time. 2 lines, The East and West Nile lines, 33 stations and 60 miles of track. When it is finished the views from it should be amazing and will be a fantastic way to see and get around the city.
Happy Thanksgiving to my Flickr friends!
I just returned from a business trip to Barcelona. I'll have a bunch of photos from Barcelona in the coming weeks. I have over 2,500 photos to go through.
Submitted for your approval is a shot of Sant Joan, a small, abandoned church, located in the Montserrat Mountains, above the Benedictine Abbey of the same name.

Tetsujin returned home from his big adventure posing for Tubes. Yeah, shipping a 200' tall robot is expensive, but that's just money. Shipping cost is nothing compared to the storage problem with this billboard sized Polaroid. I'm afraid they'll lean it against the house and crush us or something. The shadow blocks out the light for the whole neighborhood....
and now where do I park Tetsujin? Black Ox has been living in his spot for the past few months.
By the way, if anyone who comes here to look at my "art" is unfamiliar with Tubes' excellent Polaroids, they should immediately click over and spend a few hours gazing. And then go out and buy an SX-70 to get in on the pola action themselves!
Pennywise, the friendly clown of IT (Reboot). I took some elements from my Jack-in-The-Box design so is kinda similar.
Some parts have custom patterns made by me.
Render but all the parts exist in real.
This Richardson Ground Squirrel was a little ticked off with me and was doing his best to tell me to bugger off!
I am in need of repair. My back has gone out again. When I was a college freshman, I took a date to my spring formal. I don’t drink, but my date did and it was an open bar. One car wreck later, I had three crushed vertebra. Every so often, my back decides to remind me of a bad decision in 1973.... odc: in need of repair
We're back to the back of the car back there (starting to sound like a darn chicken!). A zoom out shot of that big Fairlane.
Very excited to go back in Japan next month, after almost 3 years.
My last visit was in March 2020, to Tokyo and Fujisan area, just when covid began to hit the country and my own city. That trip had to be cut short as my wife and I worried that the border of Hong Kong might be shut anytime and hence our flights being cancelled. What would have been a 5-day stay in Tokyo after returning from Kawaguchiko was adjusted to only 2 days. And this time we are going back to Tokyo with a day trip to Kawaguchiko (this, is somehow coincidental!). Japan has always had a special place in our heart.
And this, was taken in Tokyo back in 2016 when I was hitting town solo. Can't wait to be roaming about and photographing there again!
Sony A7, Primoplan 58mm f1.9.
I'm excited to go back to Hawaii in about a week. I don't really know the islands that well, and I'm not sure where we're gonna stay. I have my man Hans Mast working on it pronto... we got to be friends when he came out to one of our NZ Photo Workshops. So he helps me out with travel and cryptocurrencies... he's like a wikipedia of both!

sometimes i'm not sure what's back there .... well, other than a bit of textures and a dash of orton ...
have a freakishly fabulous friday!
I just booked plane tickets back to Finnmark on Sunday ツ
This is from when I was there two months ago. It will be nice to see the beautiful scenery without all the snow, and with even more birds ツ
My album of images from this beautiful part of Norway here.
