Photographed for a personal project at Stephansplatz, Vienna, Austria. 21 September 2023
A candid street photograph showing a crowd next to Stephansdom (St Stephen's Cathedral), Vienna. A popular hotspot for tourists, it’s a common sight to see people photographing it, and posing for photos next to it.
Tried to take a picture of a really pretty Robin in a tree, right when I took the pic it took flight. For a minute I was annoyed at how not clear the image is, but then I realized I had captured a pretty awesome moment!
A distant shot but at least with the action spread out you don't require such a drastic crop.

'The arrangement of matter, its behaviour, addition to or subtraction from it, its shape and difference in position, and its rearrangement create chaos in the normal activity of the human brain. Apparently, all of this is without a reason, but the following can be experienced from this:
- A temporary feeling of stillness (or a partial feeling of emptiness)
- A strong reaction of the inquisitive cells
- A realization of meaninglessness.
Wise men say:
"Be empty if you want to be full".
Does he know about the distance between existence and annihilation, or the difference between what is visible and what is not?'

A solitary bee found clinging to a leaf with its mandibles on a cold morning.
It was raining the night before and it was still to cold for the solitary bee to fly away so it was still biting on to the leaf where it spent the night.

Hurled out of a passing chariot by wicked dogs, damn their eyes!!! We disposed of it in a nearby rubbish bin. In some countries they could be [if they were caught] heavily fined and had their miserable gurt great fat chariot summarily crushed.
Excessive drinking is not only dangerous to your health but can leave you vulnerable to crime and violence.
Think Safe Drink Safe aims to reduce alcohol-related crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour across Greater Manchester while promoting a safe night out.
Find out more about Think Safe Drink Safe.
The campaign was introduced following national concern about the developing rise in 'binge drinking' and promotes responsible drinking, raises awareness of the potential problems excessive drinking can lead to and encourages and promote the use of safe transport home.
Think Safe, Drink Safe was used effectively when changes to the licensing laws were introduced in November 2005 and police powers were increased including expanded closure powers and higher penalties for public order offences and drunk and disorderly.
As part of the campaign a variety of successful initiatives have been introduced across the Force area to discourage binge drinking and prevent alcohol related crime.
All Think Safe, Drink Safe initiatives are supported by a high profile, internationally acclaimed, advertising and marketing campaign, which features key messages such as 'Pace your drinks', 'Plan your night out' and 'Stay with friends'.
The campaign attempts to attack the culture of binge drinking and provides helpful advice and safety messages to late-night drinkers
Remember the following when planning a night out:
*Avoid trouble by walking away. If a friend starts becoming aggressive, calm them down , remove them from the situation and encourage them to sober up.
*Pace your drinks.
*Drink plenty of water.
*Always try to eat something before a night out.
*Don’t leave your drink unattended, even when going to the toilet.
*Never accept a drink from anyone you do not completely trust.
*Stay with friends or in a group.
*Go out together and leave together. Do not wander off from your friends without letting anyone know where you are going and arrange a meeting point in case you do get separated.
Take safe transport
*Pre-book a taxi to take you home and arrange to be picked up from a safe, and well-lit meeting point.
*Make sure the taxi you ordered is the one you get into.
*Know the car details and ensure the driver knows what name it was booked under.
*Find out where taxi ranks are and try to choose staffed ones.
*If alone, book a taxi firm you know and trust. Do not get a private hire car (they look like a normal car) unless you have booked them first. Only hackney carriages (traditional black cabs) are insured to carry passengers who have flagged them down.
*Always sit in the back, preferably behind the driver.
*Night buses run until around 3am in parts of Greater Manchester. Find out when the last bus leaves so that you don't become stranded.
*Try to catch the bus from stops with bus loaders. If there isn't any in your town, use well-lit bus stops in busy areas.
*If alone, sit as near to the driver as possible and avoid empty upper decks.
*Tell the driver or guard if someone bothers you.
*Avoid walking home alone. If you have no other choice, walk in the middle of the pavement, avoid short cuts and face ongoing traffic.
*If you think you are being followed, cross the street several times. If you still think you are being followed, walk to the busiest area you can find or knock on somebody's door.

I wouldn't normally bother posting pigeons, but with this bit behaviour I thought it was worth an upload.
Got a week off work coming up so hope to get out with the main camera at least a little bit.
Thank you to the vast majority of fans last night for your excellent behaviour while watching the England game.
Although the score didn’t go our way, fans by-and-large were brilliant and watched the #WorldCup semi-final between England and Croatia in good spirits.
Nine arrests were made in total in Manchester City Centre including public order offences and being drunk and disorderly, but thankfully no serious incidents took place.
We would also like to thank all the officers who worked hard to keep everyone safe last night, with many having to give up their plans of watching the game with friends and family.
Yesterday was a testament to fans – you came together, helped look after each other and dealt with the result graciously.
Bring on Euro 2020!

Now, which is more strange? Is it the good folk of Blaenau Ffestiniog, who have developed the weird custom of chucking lumps of slate on every hill that they can find surrounding the town? Or is it the fact that 30 miles up the A470 in Llandudno, B+Q are doing a roaring trade, selling the stuff at 10 quid a bag? Either way, it all seems a bit mad to me...
On the last yards of it's journey south, the Premier set passes through the platform of the closed Blaenau Ffestiniog North station, with a typical Blaenau backdrop.
North station closed in 1982 when the current joint Network Rail/Ffestiniog Railway station came into use, the 1950's station building slipped into dereliction yet survived as long as 2012, and the platform lighting is still in place!

Some Japanese service behaviours that foreigners may or may not appreciate. Of then they will but some, especially caucasian foreigners may be irritated by some Japanese attempts at service in ways that the foreigner does not expect. I have put an X against those services that I think are best avoided, and a triangle next to those that may, occasionally, result in a negative reation.
To be used with the guessing game in the next image.
Why might Westerners not be happy with some of these instances of Japanese service? Explaining the ones against which I have put a triangle or X....
Spoke in a high pitched voice. It is common for female, and even male (e.g television shopping announcers), Japanese sales staff to speak in a falsetto voice an octave higher than they would normally. This is I think to to be more humble and less threatening (like a child or small person) and also perhaps to depersonalise the interaction so that the customer does not feel oblidged to reciprocate service received, as would be the case in normal Japanese interpersonal interaction, since the false voice connotes that the service staff is a role rather than a person.
This may be felt to be less than ideal to some Westerners since on the one hand they would not want the service staff to demean themselves to that extent, and on the other they would like to be served by a person (and demean that person!) rather than a role.
The falsity of the voice may be felt more acutely by Westerners since I believe Westerners identify more strongly with voices. To a Westerner putting on a false voice is to affect a greater trait rather than state change on the part of the sevice staff. To a Westerner, if a service staff member affects a smile then all they are doing is pretending to be pleased to see you, but if they change their voice then they are pretending to be a different person.
Research shows that Japanese are more sensitive to the information content of tone of voice (Ishii and Kitayama) presumably because Japanese express their state, their emotion, their desire, through the tone of their voice whereas Westerners feel that a vocal tone is something that is situationally unchanging, depending upon personality.
(I really don't know why however, in stage plays featuring famous television and cartoon characters, it seems essential that these characters speak in the same voice as that used on screen, so stage players in Japan mime to a recording of the voice of the voice actor, or more likely actress, that dubbs the character, suggesting a greater degree of voice-identification.
Conversely again, I am troubled by the fact that a great many preadolescent male characters, such as Crayon Shin Chan or even I think Satoshi in Pokemon, are voiced by women. I don't think I noticed that the voices are female, but once I am told, I find it troubling that for instance, Satoshi's voice is that of a woman. It makes me wonder "Who is Satoshi?" or think that "Satoshi is unreal, polysexual, a fake!")
