I've noticed that my photos now draw very few comments and as I delete any that have fewer than 10 after one week, most will disappear, in which case there's little point in adding more, so this may well be my last for some time.
Checking in at Hacienda Santa Maria Regla had its moments. We did not have an advance reservation until the day before - made on a booking site but - John made it for the wrong day. Got it sorted out and no problemo as I think we were the only hotel guests.
About: Santa Maria Regla Hacienda:
Pedro Romero de Terreros built four mining haciendas in this area at a cost of two million pesos, an incredible sum at the time. About half of that money went toward the construction of Santa Maria Regla alone.
Located four km from the town of Huasca, Construction began in 1762 as a silver operation. The name is from its dedication to the Virgin Mary venerated in the town of Chipiona in the province of Cádiz, Spain, where Romero was from.
Rocks extracted from mines were brought to the main facility to be crushed and treated with mercury to purify the silver. This process required large quantities of water which the local streams provided. Local forests provided the wood for fires needed to melt the silver into bars.
The hacienda extends over twelve hectares at the bottom of the canyon (close to the Prismas Basálticas), and at its height, employed up to 2,000 workers.
Regla hacienda was Romero’s residence in the area, where he died in 1781.
Alexander von Humboldt visited Santa María Regla in 1803, making sketches of it, including the Prismas Basálticas which were part of the property at the time. His sketches and writings were published in Europe, and he is considered to be the first tourism promoter for the area. His original drawings are in the British Museum in London.

With all this wind here I need to make sure that my stockings are not blown away. Let's start with checking my left stocking; it feels okay.
I recently took part in Lucy Phillips' pinhole collaborative project entitled What Cannot Be Seen. Lucy sends out matchboxes loaded with a paper negative and invites participants to photograph what cannot be seen. The above image is my contribution to the project, which i shot while working on my own photo series.
This is a photo of John looking out across the seafront whilst sitting on the window ledge of a brighton hotel. despite the large window the people down below seem oblivious to being watched as they go about their daily lives ....though if they were only to look up....
Lucy will be exhibiting her project at the De La Warr Pavillion in Bexhill next month. Good luck Lucy!

Earlier today Laura Zalenga asked, "What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?" and I've been thinking about it all day. What WOULD you do? Pretty much everything and anything.
Worrying and fear of failure go hand in hand. You can't worry your way to success.

Stockings have a life of their own and you cannot trust them. Therefore I have to check them all the time ;-)
Spring is here. The weather is perfect for the garden. Everything is looking so green. Feels wonderful to be out enjoying it.
Some checked mountains....not sure how that connects to cushions, but luckily I have another shot for cushions.

Certains attaquent l'année scolaire avec un nouveau cartable, d'autres rentrent au travail avec quelques changements : moi c'est avec un nouveau scaphandre que septembre commence ! Le scaphandre EMU est utilisé pour les sorties extra-véhiculaires, et même si les gants sont faits sur mesure, et les bras et les jambes sont ajustables à volonté, le torse lui est en métal rigide et existe en seulement trois tailles : M, L et XL. Ma taille a toujours été L, mais c'est une bonne idée de tester des tailles alternatives, pour être capable de sortir même en cas d'indisponibilité de sa taille préférée. D'où cette séance d'essayage du XL (parce que le M est fait pour les petits gabarits... impossible pour moi de rentrer dedans !). Comme c'est la NASA, une attention extrême est portée aux moindres détails : pas question de laisser quoi que ce soit au hasard... Tous les réglages sont notés attentivement, et j'utiliserai ensuite cette taille pour l'entraînement en piscine afin de m'habituer aux différences. Fun fact : 6hrs dans un scaphandre avec de nombreuses parties métalliques, c'est douloureux ! Chacun installe des protections individuelles sur ses épaules, ses hanches, ou ses mains. Aucun astronaute n'a les mêmes.
Trying out a spacesuit. The gloves are made to measure and the legs and arms can be adjusted at will, but the torso is rigid and only comes in three sizes: M, L, and XL. I have been using an L, but it is a good idea to check that other sizes fit, just in case we need to do an emergency spacewalk. Here I tried out the XL (the M is way too small). Nothing is left to chance at space agencies! All the adjustments needed are noted by NASA people in detail and I will spend hours training in the Neutral Buoyancy Facility to get used to the setup. Working in a part-metal spacesuit is painful! Each astronaut adds protection to alleviate the pain, on the shoulders, hips, or legs. Although the suits come in three sizes, each astronaut adapts to their needs.

This is one of my favorite candids from the assignment. I love how her gum remiinds us of her youth even though she's all made up like a woman.

Fans on the tube from Wembley Park to Canon's Park watch the match on their smart-phones. It was still 1-0 to England at this point.
Using the Aurora Firefly XL, a collapsable 4 foot beauty dish with an Aurora Lite Bank Fusion Pro 1200 moonlight placed just slightly to camera right and 6 feet away from the model. Two Fusion Pro 600 with 18 x 48 Aurora strip boxes light the back ground. A fourth light, a Fusion 600 Pro with a 7 inch dish and a 20 degree grid, was placed behind the model, camera left and 7 feet high.
