"With no consideration, no pity, no shame,
they have built walls around me, thick and high.
And now I sit here feeling hopeless.
I can't think of anything else: this fate gnaws my mind -
because I had so much to do outside.
When they were building the walls, how could I not have noticed!
But I never heard the builders, not a sound.
Imperceptibly they have closed me off from the outside world."
Constantine P. Cavafy: "Walls"
"Nie myśląc, co mi czynią, bez wstydu i litości
zbudowali dokoła mnie mury wysokie, wielkie.
I teraz siedzę tu, i męczę się w beznadziejności,
i o niczym już innym nie myśli umysł żarty przez mękę
Kiedy wznosili mury, czemuż byłem uległy?
Przecież miałem tam w świecie do zrobienia tak wiele.
Lecz żadne głosy murarzy do uszu mych nie dobiegły.
Nie uchwyciłem tej chwili, gdy mnie od świata odcięli."
Konstandinos Kawafis: "Mury"

Wheatlands Plantation (also known as Ler-Mac) is a two story brick structure with an ell built by John Chandler in 1825. It is located on the Old Knoxville/Sevierville Highway at the bend of Boyd's Creek where John Sevier and his militia engaged the Cherokees in battle. The highway, now a secondary road, was once one of the major routes to Knoxville from upper East Tennessee and Virginia. The home remained in the hands of John Chandler's descendants until the late 1960's. Only minor alterations have taken place; the present owners, with their respect for the structure's Federal lines, have kept the exterior appearance intact and have made only necessary renovations inside. The house originally contained a parlor, sitting room, dining room and adjoining kitchen on the ground level. Upstairs were two large bedrooms and two smaller rooms which were probably servant quarters. The dining room, kitchen, and servant quarters form a rear wing. Unlike the other rooms of the home which have 12 foot ceilings, these rooms have ceilings which vary in height from 7'6" to 9'. The large rooms were heated by fireplaces; and the ornate wood mantels are found in all rooms. The kitchen has been modernized with range and other conveniences, however, the fireplace and hearth are still utilized. The home underwent three series of renovations. During the late 19th century the home was somewhat "Victorianized" with the major alteration being the installation of "Queen Anne's" windows (i.e. varying stain glass panes which are set in a bordering sash in each window) and the addition of a one-story balustraded front porch. In the present century, plumbing fixtures were added. Around 1930 the entrance to the living room was widened to an archway from the central hall. The height of the walls inside the home are broken by chair and picture rails; various patterns of wallpaper from the Williamsburg collection have replaced the faded paper. Outbuildings include a former servant cabin which is now an apartment and the smokehouse and storage shed are still in good condition. A small black community nearby bears witness to the descendants of Chandler's servants; these people were given a tract of the Chandler land and have remained there over the years farming the land and teaching in the county.
The earliest recorded history connected with the Wheatlands site is the Battle of Boyd's Creek. This engagement with the Cherokees was the first of John Sevier's battles with the Indians. Sevier led his 200 men across the French Broad at War Ford (or Christians Ford) and attacked the Cherokees at the bend in Boyd's Creek—the same area where Wheatlands now stands. The original owner, John Chandler, came to the Boyd's Creek vicinity from the Rocky Springs Community in 1791. Chandler added various tracts of land to this original land grant and eventually accumulated about 46,601 acres. His original home burned in 1824 and the home known as Wheatlands (later known as Ler-Mac) was built of handmade brick, heartpine floors and plastered walls & ceilings; the tin roof, now covered with shingles, was imported from England. The name Wheatlands was derived from Chandler's extensive wheat fields. The farm also included a commissary, tannery, and a distillery. Chandler was a slave owner, but deplored the practice of breaking up families and selling individuals to different owners. By the outbreak of the Civil War he had, accumulated 188 slaves.
Wheatlands is an important landmark in the community being the home of a prominent early settler. And, it is a significant example of the Federal style architecture in East Tennessee during the first quarter of the nineteenth century. Typical is the adaptation of late 19th century changes to reflect the Victorian era, a common practice of those who were financially able to "keep up with the times". For these reasons, Wheatlands was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 7, 1975.

I took this shot in 2013 but never really gave it much consideration. Today, it caught my eye (and my ear). The landscape shots that typically speak to me are of grand vistas and this photo is certainly not that. However, the texture and the colors caused me to stop as I was going through some old photos. It looks painterly but it’s really just a slow shutter speed telephoto shot of some flowing water in the Deschutes river reflecting the sunrise-lit nearby trees.
It’s not my usual but today it spoke and I listened.
All things taken into consideration, her life is a happy one.
I was bad compromise with her. I refused the money for college from the mother. I did not want to make the IOU to her. I was graduated from the University of Arts in scholarship and part-time-job. Repayment was the tough thing. However, across all of the cats Rainbow Bridge. The next.

Sometimes you must hand over your camera to strangers and ask that they get as much of your face in the shot as they can. Here we did just that and were lucky to have what you see.
Alina is as beautiful as ever, though the impact her eyes usually have over a man's soul is not recorded well in this image. I, Cristian Ioja, feel a day older and since I'm not approaching the age of 27, it does not really matter anymore. It is clear to me now that the shape a man is in, dictates how old he feels.
There are other considerations, Groucho was not the first to suggest it, but I shall keep those to myself.
Speaking of statements made by Mr. Marx, here is one of my favorites, "Die, my dear? Why that's the last thing I'll do!"
The Chattanooga National Cemetery was established in 1863 by order of Major General George H. Thomas, U.S.A., dated December 25, 1863, (General Order 296, Headquarters, Department of the Cumberland), in commemoration of the Battles of Chattanooga fought from November 23 to 27, 1863. The cemetery was not designated a national cemetery until 1867 when Congress passed "An Act to Establish and Protect National Cemeteries." Frederick Buntley, a discharged sergeant of infantry, was appointed the first superintendent of the cemetery as of January 10, 1868.
Included within the Chattanooga National Cemetery are three large commemorative monuments like the one seen in the photograph above. It is the Andrews Raiders Monument located in Section H that is topped by a bronze replica of a tall-stacked wood burning Civil War-era locomotive known as 'The General'. It was erected in 1890 by the State of Ohio as their tribute to Federal spy James J. Andrews and several members of his company of volunteer soldiers who are buried here. It commemorates an 1862 Civil War raid with thrills and misadventures in the best traditions of a "cops and robbers" chase.
This cemetery remains an important component of the multiple property submission of Civil War Era National Cemeteries and is especially significant because of its association with the Civil War. There was no more formidable theater of operations in the Civil War than that around Chattanooga, which was called the "Key to East Tennessee" and the "Gateway to the Deep South". The possession of Chattanooga was vital to the Confederacy and a converted goal of the northern armies. And, because of it's high level of significance, the Chattanooga National Cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on September 16, 1996. All of the information above (and much, much more!) was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

The Third System refers to 19th century military architecture in the United States. Fort Pulaski National Monument exists as one of the best preserved forts in this defense system. Shoreline defense was fragmented and weak when the British burned the nation's capital during the War of 1812. At the time coastal defenses were composed of a haphazard assortment of batteries and outposts. In response to lessons learned in the War of 1812, a new coastal defense system was designed. This new defense system was an attempt to protect critical United States shorelines.
The Third System was established during a relatively peaceful time for the United States. These conditions provided for an unprecedented level of standardization in design and planning. For the first time, a professional board was appointed to oversee design and construction. Close to 200 forts were envisioned to guard the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, however only 30 were built between 1816-1867. Some structures were never completed in part because of events at Fort Pulaski during the Civil War.
This photo is of the outer walls that show, in detail, many pock marks from Union cannon fire and the edge of a section that was breached (the newer brick on the left side) by new rifled cannons during the Civil War battle that lead to its surrender by Colonel Charles H. Olmstead. The fort became a National Monument on October 15, 1924 under the War Department and later was transferred to the National Park service on August 10, 1933. At this time, repairs began on the breached portion of the wall and across the rest of this national landmark. Additionally, the Fort Pulaski complex was determined to be significant for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on October 15, 1966 in the areas of architecture, engineering, and military history of the United States of America. Much of the information above was found on the original documents submitted to the NRHP for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

Excerpt from pub-oakville.escribemeetings.com/filestream.ashx?document...:
Description of Property – 2405-2411 Ontario Street
The subject property to be designated is bordered by Ontario Street to the south, Jones Street to the east, a walkway and new building to the north and the line of mature existing trees to the west. It consists of three frame heritage buildings, namely, the Glendella Inn and the relocated former Bronte Post Office and former Bronte Police Station. The designated property area is Part 4 of Reference Plan 20R-19463.
Statement of Cultural Heritage Value
The Glendella Inn (2405 Ontario Street)
Constructed in 1845, this 2-1/2 storey frame building was built as an inn, situated to serve farmers coming from the interior to the harbour, as well as for those stopping by boat and as a stagecoach stop on the old Lake Road. The Glendella Inn has historic value as one of few remaining buildings from Bronte’s early history. The building has value as a pioneer inn that served the public for meeting, respite and commercial functions. It also has value in its association with the stage coach route along Lake Road, which was one of the first routes between Toronto and Dundas and was originally part of the old Mississauga First Nations trail along the lakeshore.
Originally known as Thompson’s Inn, the building has long standing associations with the fishing industry due to its proximity to the harbour and early use as a boarding house for sailors and fishermen.
The Glendella Inn also has historic value in its various associations as a summer hotel in the early 1900’s, as well as a tavern, a grocery store, candy shop and post office. For many years, the community associated the building with the seasonal travel industry that brought the public to the lakeshore in the summer. And for 12 years, the building was well-known as one of the first charitable retreats for women and children.
Over the years, the Glendella Inn has been associated with many prominent Bronte families, including Belyea, Thompson, Joyce and Hill. These families contributed to the founding and then historic development of Bronte Village over the past 160
years.
The Glendella Inn has architectural value as an example of a late Georgian influenced vernacular building that has had numerous changes throughout its long history. This frame structure with horizontal wood cladding and steeply hipped roof has had dormers added to the roof, rear additions and changes to the verandah.
The foundation of Dundas shale, also known as ‘lakestone’ or ‘hooked stone’, remains intact and may have been salvaged from the nearby beach or pried off the lakebed of Lake Ontario by stonehookers.
Contextual Value of the Heritage Precinct (Part 4 of Plan 20R-19463)
The buildings in the heritage precinct have cultural heritage significance for their contextual value. Although two of the buildings have been relocated to their current locations in the heritage precinct, their original locations were not far away. Both the former Post Office and former Police Station buildings are well-known as part of historic Bronte Village and their respective relocation to the current site has not removed their contextual importance to Bronte Village.
The Glendella Inn, which is in its original location, is one of the most important historical landmarks remaining in Bronte. Its position facing Lake Ontario, close to the mouth of Bronte Harbour is important, as is its relationship to the old Lake Road.
Both of these considerations were crucial to the building’s historic uses as an inn, tavern and stagecoach stop. The views of Glendella from the Bronte pier and from the lake are integral to the history of this structure and the entire heritage precinct
area.

Almost drove by this place south of Kewanee,IL. but thought I had seen something out of the corner of my eye...
This abandoned farm property was a maze of poorly built sheds full of junk,which at one time wasn't junk.But the weather has taken its toll.I had trouble shaking the vibe that someone was going to come up behind me with a shotgun too.The house was interesting but there were not many photograghs to be had because of light considerations...
...and the possibility of that shotgun and maybe a mean junkyard dog....
La maison familiale doit permettre de donner à sa famille la considération qui lui est due. Selon leur caste, les occupants sont obligés de décorer avec plus ou moins de faste leur demeure. La notion d’honneur est centrale, ces magnifiques panneaux de bois gravés sont ornés de motifs géométriques et symboliques
La femme et l’épouse sont symbolisées par des greniers à riz et accompagnent chaque Tongkonan incarnant l’homme et l’époux.Trois types de Tongkonan existent :
•“Tongkonan Layuk” est la maison de la plus haute autorité ;
•“Tongkonan pekamberan” est habitée par les familles aisées qui possèdent une certaine autorité dans les traditions locales ;
•“Tongkonan batu” abrite les familles modestes.

The "Rock House" located on present U.S. Highway 70, approximately 3 miles east of Sparta, Tennessee was on the old stage road running over the Cumberland Mountains from Knoxville to Nashville. The records indicate that the small stone toll house was built for Barlow Fiske sometime between 1835-1839 using native sandstone quarried in the general vicinity of the site. It was probably used as a resting place for travelers and horses alike as the distance from Sparta to the top of the mountain was about 5.25 miles, according to an 1837 petition. In 1852, the White County Court granted Barlow Fiske a license to "sell and dispose of goods, wares, merchandise, groceries and drugs at retail at his establishment for 12 months". The license was renewed in 1853 but no licenses exist to show that the Rock House was used for a store after that time; however, it is felt by traditionalists that a store continued there for many years. Records also indicate that a toll gate was still in operation as late as 1857. The toll house played an important part in the early transportation system in the west and the Rock House is a good example of a toll house using the native material, sandstone. It also served other purposes doubling as a store and resting place. It is now the property of the State of Tennessee and is used as a meeting house for the Rock House Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. It stands preserved as a tribute to this part of our heritage—the stage road and toll house.
This structure was listed on the NRHP on August 14, 1973. And all information above was taken from the original documents submitted for listing consideration and can be viewed here:

It was almost touching to see how gentle these big guys were towards the warthogs. A very small waterhole and all were thirsty, but the ellies were very considerate trying not to trample on the small companions..
Addo Elephant Park (where the elephant population has outgrown what the park can handle, but schemes are in place to prevent culling)
Within weeks of the sinking of the Titanic a scheme was under consideration in Liverpool to remember the members of the ship's engine room who died in the sinking. The thirty-five engineers aboard the Titanic were employed to keep the ship's engines, generators and auxiliary machinery operating. The Titanic was powered by twenty-nine coal-fired boilers that powered her engines and electricity generators.
Had her lights and wireless telegraph had failed, panic would have been rife and it would have been impossible to summon assistance, or lower her lifeboats safely. In the event power was maintained for the wireless set until ten minutes before she sank, with the lights failing just two minutes before she sank. None of the engineers survived the sinking.
As reported at the time "the proposed Liverpool memorial to the Titanic Engineers should be a national one, and there is in contemplation a river-side scheme that would surpass, in architectural beauty, the Statue of Liberty at New York". Such was the importance of the scheme that "an influential committee... [was]...formed with the approval of the Lord Mayor (the Earl of Derby)" to consider how best to remember the heroes of the engine room, while a plot was identified at St Nicholas Place at the Pier Head, overlooked by the Liver Building.
The memorial is of granite stone and measures 48 feet (14.6 metres) high. It was designed by Welsh sculptor Sir William Goscombe John R.A. (1860-1952) and built at a cost of £4,500. It was unveiled on 6th May 1916. The memorial is noticeably pockmarked on the north-face of the pedestal, a consequence of German bomb and shrapnel damage suffered during the Second World War. It was awarded Grade II*-listed status on 14 March 1975. The memorial was restored in time for the centenary of the sinking of the Titanic. The stonework was cleaned and repointed, and the brightwork re-gilded.
The memorial stands on granite footings, with a wide base surmounted by a splayed granite pedestal. The pedestal is surmounted by a granite obelisk, with four allegorical figures at the base of the obelisk. The squatting figures are shown against a wave-form background surmounted by gilded sunrise carvings. At the north-west, the figure represents "Water" and at the north-east, "Earth". The figure at the south-west represents "Air" and at the south-east, "Fire". The obelisk is surmounted by four female figures, holding buoys between them, beneath a gilded torch flame.
The west side of the pedestal carries two male figures, a stoker (or fireman) and engineering officer. The engineering officer is carrying a spanner, used to help maintain the engines and mechanical equipment aboard the Titanic. The east side of the pedestal carries two male figures of coal trimmers, one with a shovel used to move coal from the bunkers to the stokers at the boiler furnaces. The memorial is significant in its depiction of the ordinary, working-class crew members.
The north side of the pedestal carries a relief carving of a three-bladed propeller encircled with a wreath, beneath the inscription:
In honour of
All heroes of the
Marine Engine Room
This Memorial
Was Erected by
International Subscription
MCMXVI
The south side of the pedestal carries an identical propeller and wreath carving beneath the inscription:
The brave do not die
Their deeds live for ever
And call upon us
To emulate their courage
And devotion to duty
The inscriptions make no reference to the Titanic. It was intended that the memorial commemorate the Titanic engine room heroes, however in the intervening years between the sinking and the completion of the memorial many more ships had been lost, especially during the opening years of the First World War. It was felt appropriate that the memorial dedication be broadened to remember all the "heroes of the marine engine room".
My degree ended with a consideration of what my work could look like in the future. I came up with an idea for a series called "Unreliable Narrator" where I would attempt to capture uncomfortable night time scenes and write a description at odds with that discomfort, mainly discussing my positive response to each scene.
At building sites, I generally try my hardest to get a sense of scale and to use whatever natural light to capture the scene as it is in the moment. It felt strange then, climbing up various ladders and looking down, just to go crazy with contrast and look away from the landscape. It was however nice to capture some of the detail we encounter when actually clambering about such places. All those crusty cold ladders and gates trying to stop us...
Bemis, Tennessee, a portion of the City of Jackson in Madison County, is a place of local, state, & national significance for its many contributions to the history of western Tennessee and the nation as a whole. Though seemingly a simple example of a small Southern company town on first glance, its' timeless character is the result of intensive planning to produce a living environment of dignity & respect to the American worker, fostered from its very beginning in 1900 through the interests and direct guidance of its mentor, Albert Farwell Bemis (1870-1936). In sum, Bemis was but one of many attempts by American industry to provide for a system of employee benefits through the welfare capitalism system. However, Bemis holds a significant place in the larger perspective as the place of initiation for the efforts of one man, working as a part of one company, to employ his position of social & economic power to solve the national problems for the working class—problems that other industries & governments were unable or unwilling to comprehend. The development of this place was carried out without promotion or fanfare; without the desire by its original development team to seek the public spotlight. It was a place of social & architectural experimentation through time whose effects that may have had bearing on larger, more contemporary trends of urban planning & design philosophies not yet documented. Taken as a whole, the historical environment of Bemis is not contained within any simple, single trend, association or influence as a document of its times and the people who shaped it. Instead, it is a place with few peers as an industrial community, representing the attempts of two generations of industrialists, town planners & social designers to seek solutions to the deep problems of housing the working class in America.
The Bemis Historic District, including the Bemis Auditorium seen in the photograph above, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 16, 1991.

Exercise caution in your business affairs;
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals;
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself.

The Little Charmer… (not about me…)
Oh! What a person can get, with the right charm!
And all those tales, she'll tell, regardless of harm...
Convinced to help out, by her little sweet song -
You won't be aware, of the fun ride, you're on...
The heart and the purse strings will soon be untied,
To meet her own needs - you'll not know, that she's lied....
You! Unwittingly taken, to be a soft touch,
While She! cannot believe such a run of good luck,
Congratulating herself, that it's all under wraps -
Not thinking, two stories conflicting, at some stage, perhaps,
Might collide with each other, when they shall reveal
How dishonest, she is, to give you a raw deal...
If end results turn awry, I think, she would not relate,
Be conscious enough, to differentiate -
When inflow outweighs the exit amount,
Leads to, sooner than later, a surplus account...
To get something for free, someone else always pays,
Universal Laws never cease to amaze...
Regarding her ongoing greed, her delight to connive...
It may not ever happen, but she could realise:
All those things, she does have, and did so crookedly earn,
Karma's decided, This Little Charmer, just did not deserve!

With much consideration and many debates with myself, I have decided to leave Flickr. Since December of 2005, I have made so many dear friends and appreciate each and every one of you. However with my health and all that is going on in my family at this time, I have spread myself to thin and must take a leave. Hoping for each and every one a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. No need to comment on this picture. Just stay healthy, stay safe and know that all of you are loved. May God richly bless you all.
First of photographs and first of a few considerations. Latent imagery is a philosophy I feel a strong bond with. The poetically adopted notion that an invisible entity sits within my camera on film that until developed exists and yet does not exist. Like the baby inside the womb. Style wise I keep to a simplicity that shouts out black and white film, into a Pentax LX, a Wetzler Leitz enlarger, developing in the old odour filled darkroom and the looked/unlocked [yes unlocked, not unlooked] for scenes that present themselves. No pretensions or "aren't I wonderful" sought for. I just seek individual little photographs that try to sit comfortably in my heart. BUT....having said......I'm my own worst critic so you can't harm me with how you react. You don't like them? Then seek others who have the ability to whack your senses. I'll just carry on regardless. Comfortable in my own skin. If you have even one of these photographs that creeps into your soul then.........I hope it treats you kindly. Good fortune.
Taking the comment of Scoobay into consideration I made another attempt at throwing watches in my fishtank. The result was cleaned up and sharpened in Photoshop. This is the first tabletop shot with my new cheapo wireless triggers (Cactus V2s).
Strobist info: One Speedlite 430EX to the left shot through a white umbrella at 1/8th, triggered by a Cactus wireless trigger. One 300W strobe at 1/16th shot through frosted plexiglass behind the tank. Black acrylic sheets to the left and right were added for more defined reflections in the water.
Nach Scoobays Kommentar habe ich einen weiteren Versuch mit Uhren in meinem Mikro-Foto-Aquarium gestartet. Das ist außerdem die erste Aufnahme mit günstigen Cactus Funkauslösern
Strobist Info: Der Speedlite 430EX auf der linken Seite wurde durch einen weißten 80cm Schirm auf 1/8 der Leistung abgefeuert und hat über die Fotozelle einen 300W Blitz auf 1/16 hinter der Plexiglasplatte im Bildhintergrund ausgelöst. Das Resultat wurde in Photoshop aufgeräumt und in Schwarz-Weiß konvertiert.

After much careful consideration and the onslaught of angry emails I got about potentially slowing down on the Mingus photos, I've decided to make a giant NFT containing 5000 photos of Mingus The Greatest Cat in the World TM. The NFT will be about 1 gigabyte in space and when unraveled (digitally or in real life, like the old days) it will be about 410 feet tall and 305 feet in width suitable to display on most skyscrapers built out of LED screens.
