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.
Nobody sees a flower - really - it is so small it takes time - we haven't time - and to see takes time,
like to have a friend takes time

"Don't ever take a fence down until you know why it was put up."
........Robert Frost
This fence is part of an historical community garden, which in turn is part of a larger heritage precinct in the little town of Penola, South Australia which lies in the heart of the famous wine area of Coonawarra.
I doubt it serves a lot of practical purpose now - except for looking gorgeous and being a prop for photographers. Its a wonderful tribute to the community who maintain and preserve these historical treasures. HFF
Can you see him there, in the middle? Its a dog... :¬)
This is a very poor community (or Favela, in Portuguese) called Santa Marta, on the mount Dona Marta. For many years it was devastated by the violence caused by the organized crime, specially because of the drug traffic. I could never imagine myself entering there, but, since November 2008, its permanently occupied by the police and, since this date, the inhabitants are free of the violence. Them, I could walk all the place without problem (well, almost...), but, in general, was everything very well, even I'm being with a bit of fear...
In LARGE you will certainly find him.

Have a nice day... :¬)
This is not wedding related, but my daughter is taking a very special trip for the next two weeks - Community Camp!
I am grateful to those staff members who are taking time out of their lives to bring a little joy to the world - virtually and otherwise. ♥

This is the fourth piece in the series I am calling Community. This work is in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and continues my experiences in the seniors photography workshop where we are looking at the communities in which we live. We are working towards a group project of some sort that we are collectively trying to define. It is very interesting for me as I have not worked collaboratively in my art very much.

I have been attending a (seniors) photography workshop where we are looking at the communities in which we live. We are working towards a group project of some sort that we are collectively trying to define. It is very interesting for me as I have not worked collaboratively in my art very much.
Part of the progress is journaling as we try to individually place ourselves to experience new aspects of our neighbourhoods with the goal to tell a collective story on some level. It is interesting for me as I have mostly focused on the E+Ps of image making and have not initiated work with a any specific objectives in mind.
In the end I will not tell you what I see in this, what it means, that is for you to contribute. I will tell you that It does address many aspects of community I see around me in 2020 both good and bad.
Porch Party
Come sit with me and we’ll not be alone.
We’ll chill by the pool and forget about the phone.
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.
The Recreation Center invited folks to bring an ornament and help decorate the holiday tree. It is a great way to bring folks together and feel part of the community.
A visit to the West Gardens - always a treat to be in this beautiful place. These gardens were willed to the Manitowoc community by Ruth West. Her Gardens were her passion ...her legacy to proivde this space to be FREE for all to love and enjoy as she did .
Let's all go to Ezra's house and have our laundry washed!
A charming scene but does look like a lot of work. Remember when your Mom or grandparents got their first dryer!
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.
Class 43 locomotive No. 43192 arrives at Yatton station with the late-running 2U12, the 06:40 Penzance to Cardiff Central service on Saturday 30th October 2021. Sister locomotive No. 43122 was at the rear.
On this visit to Yatton I had the pleasure of the company of Stuart Warr and Invader1009, who had come here specifically to photograph this train.
