This is one portion of one tree of many at the Rockport Rookery. The Great blue herons are all facing the setting sun except the one that just returned with some nest builind materials. There was lots of mating rituals, gift, and nest material presentation going on in the colony.

In addition to the murals, I just loved the look of the entire space.

Smallscape. I'm kind of into things that catch my eye because of their anonymity at the moment. The world has suddenly shrank, so I guess my perspective should too? That or I'm just pratting about shooting weeds...

Schoolchildren's art on display in the Tateishi Nakamise shopping arcade. Local shops and the shopping street association give prizes for kids' art, and some of the winners were on display when I visited.

 

To me, this photo shows the strong connection between local shopping streets and the community. They are one and the same, essentially. Gut one, you're going to end up gutting the other. This arcade is over sixty years old, and arguably needs to be rebuilt. Rebuilt--not replaced by something that will primarily serve the interests of entities outside the community, who have no vested interest in it, and see it only as a locus for extracting profit.

Recently, I have done a documentary on Ramnami Samaj (community) in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh. It is a Hindu sect founded by Parasuram, a man from low caste untouchable Hindu community, in the 1890s that worshiped the Lord Ram. To prove their love and devotion to Lord Ram, they have tattooed the word “Ram” on their whole body and wear clothes with “Ram” written all over them. Even the walls of house have “Ram Ram” scribbled on them. This community is very liberal; they don’t discriminate between castes and respect all genders equally. They spend their entire day spiritually- by praying and chanting Ram bhajan (devotional songs). With only a handful of people left in this community, we can only wish for them to never let go of their cultural identity and for the coming generation to pursue it with fervor.

Thank You for Your Kind Visit

We were over West End way today (didn't see ya Christy!) and on the way back, passed this Queenslander style home which accentuates its heritage with bananas, Lady Fingers I imagine growing right in the small front yard in Vulture Street, South Brisbane. We left in rather a hurry as a rather ominous thunderstorm came towards us but it seems to have dissipated. It's still about 35C though and unhappy high humidity too.

 

In traditional Brisbane, Queensland and even in New South Wales probably north of Sydney when homes sat on large allotments and had big backyards, it was not unusual to have a small plantation of banana trees growing in the backyard. We had them, all Lady Fingers because there were restrictions on growing the more well known Cavendish in those days. I am a Cav man myself, never liked the slightly metallic taste of the Lady Fingers. The backyard would also possibly be home to other fruit trees, many of them now long forgotten, a vegetable garden and perhaps a chook run. We had all of these and what a childhood of discovery it was, even the deadly snakes!

Having discovered a large, densely populated area of Canada Anemone much closer to home, I've made several visits while they are at peak condition. A chaos of blossoms abound.

Meant as a documentary shot to establish density and habitat.
