The Cellular Jail, also known as Kālā Pānī (Black Water), was a colonial prison in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India. The prison was used by the British especially to exile political prisoners to the remote archipelago. Many notable dissidents such as Batukeshwar Dutt and Veer Savarkar, among others, were imprisoned here during the struggle for India's independence. Today, the complex serves as a national memorial monument.

I have been working - a lot - no time to shoot much. Except occasionally, one of my favorite subjects. She still comes to visit me evry morning. The reason I am so sure it is my Curlytoes is the oddly cropped tail - unique among the many geckoes that frequent our lanai. She is is still the most curious and the most endearing of our little tribe.....

Pair of bald eagles have been on this tower every night this week when I arrived home. Finally had the opportunity to run back out there with my X-T3 • XF 100-400

On April 19, 2005, Oregon prosecutors filed aggravated vehicular homicide against Angelique Dipman, 27, a day after the death of 5-year-old Dameatrius McCreary.
The crash happened on a Thursday afternoon around 3:30pm on Starr Avenue in Oregon, USA. Police say a school bus stopped, with warning lights on and stop sign out, to let McCreary off the bus. Ohio laws require drivers to stop, but police say 27-year-old Dipman drove past the bus, and hit McCreary, throwing him several feet into the air. McCreary was taken by helicopter to The Toledo Hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.
"My prayers go out to the family," said Dipman as she was led into police headquarters by her attorney. When asked what happened, she reiterated, "I have no other comment other than my prayers go out to the family."
Police believe Dipman was on her cell phone at the time of the accident which may have distracted her. "You just don't drive by a stopped school bus with the lights flashing unless there is some distraction in some shape or form," said Oregon Police Chief Tom Gulch. The mother of Dameatrius, Sandra TenEyck, agreed by saying "This woman was on a cell phone. She didn't stop for a bus that had its stop sign out. I mean you have to see that. There's no way."
Local News Channel 11 checked Dipman's driving record and found her license has been suspended twice, she has been cited for speeding 4 times, and also received a child restraint citation in the past.
Dipman appeared for an arraignment in Oregon Municipal Court, pleading not guilty to the charge of aggravated vehicular homicide. She will be back in court on June 27th.
"I think you and I sitting here or anybody else is guilty of using a cell phone as we're driving," said Mayor Marge Brown of Oregon. That's why Brown thinks the city should consider enacting a law banning the use of cell phones while driving. "How many others are distracted by cell phones and usage? How many others are paying attention, either eating, doing make-up, radio blasting or on the cell phone? How many accidents have been caused because of that?" Brown asks.
In 2003, 33 states introduced bills that would ban the use of hand-held cell phones while driving. To date New York is the only state with such a ban. It went into effect in December 2001.

I swear that his looks like cells reproducing by splitting. Gotta watch out for those guys with the wiggly tails. This year I got some seriously unusual takes. It's county fair time this summer and again the carnival came to town, and again, here I am willing to try more tricks with a different "twist." the camera was panned this time while bobbing in up and down. The yellow ride came too close tis time too. It blew out of focus again in an instant. This ride came right at me. I waited for a totally black sky after the sunset. There is a lot more slack to impart action at 2-3 seconds than at 1 second. It seems that I can never get the experimentation done, another foray with different results. I shot at f:/22 over a second in the dark. I arrived at the parking at about 8:00 in the evening for the weather to soothe and people to get on the rides. It is difficult getting three rides running at once.but this technique overcomes that problem. I hope I don't need a description for this shot. I have no idea for a title until I look at the results on the monitor and good takes become obvious but this time, I had very few duds. I expect to delve into these takes at a later time. Each episode is a learning experience and I make a list of pointers to consider.
I never have finished my previous color lights or rose garden experiments. I will take the opportunity to try out more tricks before the next fair rides. I am still not out of snaps of other subjects but I hope my breadth has expanded. I did vewwy, vewwy wittle warping and editing, for me at least, to present these the way I wanted. I have learned to slow the camera down even further to three seconds this time but I boosted the lens setting to f:/22. Three seconds is about enough to accomplish a wide array of tricks if prepared and prepanned so to speak. Of course this digital experimentation is cheap. I had fun shooting all of these and they were a breeze to edit! I get mostly muted colors in the ag settings I have shot, so I revel in JUST COLORS.

Amazingly, I still have lightning shots from last summer that I haven't posted yet! If you grabbed a copy of my Stormchasing Arizona book, you've likely seen this already.
This was an amazing night with some spectacular lightning strikes hitting all around Casa Grande. I was so stoked when I saw the first strike from the truck and knew I could stop and line it up with this cell phone tower.
Cannot wait for this season...have a major hankering for some lightning chasing.
