This image was created for an assignment called split image I believe. I tried to make the palm tree look like a screw and thought they went together well.

Candid street portrait taken in Glasgow, Scotland. A random photographer saw me with my camera and came up to talk to me about shots she had taken. I couldn't resist firing this off as she concentrated on her camera buttons though she did indicate being shy after I had taken the shot. I basically said that anyone with a camera was 'fair game' and she didn't disagree. Nice to get such a close-up on the street.

Camp Westerbork was a World War II concentration camp in Hooghalen, ten kilometers north of Westerbork, in the northeastern Netherlands. Its funtion during de Second World War was to assemble Roma and Dutch Jews for transport to other Nazi concentration camps.
-------
En septiembre de 1942 llegó al campo de concentración Westerbork junto con sus padres el niño Leo Meyer, de 8 años, nacido en Zwijndrecht. En el campo de concentración, también iba a la escuela. En otoño de 1943, debido a un brote de poliomelitis entre los niños, se dejó de dar clase. Leo menciona este hecho en su carta a San Nicolás (como los Reyes...):
"-Para San Nicolás y su paje, de Leo-
Querido San Nicolás y Piet estoy muy contento con estos caramelos de menta y le doy el ultimo trozo de pan moreno para su caballo y ahora ve en mi zapato un dibujo con un niño y dos conejitos que airean la alfombra y le gustaron las dos ultimas cartas que le envié y el pan que deje para su caballo mi padre esta enfermo y Westerbork es un lugar muy malo se acuerda de antes cuando aún vivia en Zwijndrecht y que me regaló una locomotora de tren con vagones y railes y sé que viene a la Barraca 66 y yo también vengo ayudo a una mujer a cambiarse de sitio y me dejó un libro han cerrado nuestra escuela pues hay poliomelitis ahora mi padre me da clase pero ya no sé contar bien sabe pero yo hago todo lo que puedo para aprender le gustó el pan moreno le doy el último trozo de pan a su caballo pues ya no me queda más mañana por la mañana tendré un regalo no sé que más explicarle recuerdos de Leo."
El 4 de septiembre de 1944, el niño tuvo que partir en el transporte a Theresienstadt. Desde allà salió para Auschwitz, donde Leo, entonces 9 años, fue asesinado a finales de septiembre"

Mostly it is children who opt to get their face painted. Not in this case! Love the concentration of both painter and painted.
Just the Heron and what it hopes will be it's lunch, the rest of the world is silent, it is out of mind.
My son LB. Like most 10 year olds, he has his eyes glued on his iPhone games.

Precise work with my glasses off, not only to get the thread through the needle, but to have and keep the focus on the needle and my eye behind it as well.
Manual focus appeared the best option here, and I measured the distance between lens and needle for each shot. Many shots were still out of focus but some succeeded.
