Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Colour re-edit of a black and white image originally captured in January 2020. Just about to break into a smile here and I love it when I can make someone's day with a photograph. Enjoy!
What does this make you think of, I have tried to come up with a title for a couple of days and its just not working. Got a suggestion?
A new Title has been picked, I think both of the subjects are making connects, one my just be trying to connect to E.T.
Who knows.

Where there's a music should be comin' out of every car
There is a silence all over downtown
Where community celebrations shall be aroused
I walk the sterile gardens, life is on pause, here it is
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
I guess you can't expect much from the hometown
Well I don't know if you can even call it your own
When they don't want you to get near excitement
And in protest of that you just stay home, here it is now
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
On intersection of all dimensions
Where I was stoppin' by just for a drink
I meet a brother from tribal connection
And together we began to sing
We gonna turn frustration into inspiration
Whatever demons are there, we gonna set them free
Such is the method of tribal connection
Of our fun loving restless breed
I wanna walk this Earth like it is mine
And so is everyone in our fun lovin' tribe
C'mon man, is that real so much to ask?
From all these goddamn Nazi-fuedals
But I'm gonna take it to community
'Cause I want everyone to see
There never was any conspiracy
And we are all here simply to sing
No can do this, no can do that
What the hell can you do, my friend?
In this place that you call your town
Where there's a music should be comin' out of every car
There is a silence all over downtown
Only the intersection semi-alive
Outskirts are sedated, me gone

A song from before the time of Covid, from a band that got it's start in my old stomping grounds, a place they called Alphabet Land, the east village of Manhattan.
A connection between a human being and Mother Nature can emerge suddenly or develop gradually - and it is such an amazing feeling... Of course it is most likely to happen in places of great natural beauty, like this one... as long as other people around keep quiet.

Parfois, il suffit de s'allonger sous des arbres pour se sentir connecté avec l'univers.
Sometimes you just need to lie under trees to feel connected with the universe.

Slowly meandering through a forest of very pointy protrusions, I made my way to the banks of a lake. Here, Autumn colors were reflecting tints and hues with mirror like accuracy, as I set about to find a spot for my tripod.
After much deliberation and equal trial, only the natural elements that first drew my attention, made the final grade. As if bound through some spooky connection, the colors above, connected with the colors below.
This shows 2 'intended contacts' - the sd card into reader, then the usb contacted to the desktop.
HMM to everyone
Since two weeks I have no internet at home. My provider said that the cable in the street is the reason and it will take quite a while to fix it... :(
So for now I just have my limited phone connection to check mails and other news. Can you remember your life before internet became a normal thing?
Anyway, I'm at my parents place now for Easter holidays. So I have the chance for this upload. I hope everyone is fine. I hope to be back on Flickr as soon as possible.

this raindrop intrigued me. it held important reflections: reflections of crisscrossed, connected plants. interweaving that’s echoed in the blurred background. we’re all interconnected. our lives are intertwined in beautiful ways.
happy friday, flickr friends! i’m grateful our paths are connected. thanks for your inspiration, support, wisdom, and kindness.
THERE IS MORE THAT CONNECTS US, THAN POSSIBLE CAN DIVIDE US.

Today I have a shot of D36 further up on the BLD in Mansfield. Just behind the power is the connection for the Urbana Branch that heads off toward Champaign-Urbana. At one time this branch was the former mainline of NYC subsidiary Peoria and Eastern between Peoria and Indianapolis via Danville. The line once crossed the WAB in the background just before the first highway bridge. At some point, Conrail cut the PE east of Danville to Crawfordsville. Trains INPE/PEIN then took a cobbled together route to get to and from Peoria, first heading west on the NYC Saint Louis line to Paris, then up the NYC Danville Secondary/Egyptian Line to Danville where they regained PE rails. In 1996, prior to the split, Conrail sold a portion of the PE between Bloomington and Urbana to the NS. Why NS needed a second line to Peoria? I'm not sure. But of course it added a few customers in Champaign-Urbana and allowed them to discontinue their IC trackage rights from Tolono-Urbana. This was likely the ultimate goal. But it did block CSX from getting a line into Peoria after the Conrail split. Anyway, west of Mansfield the PE was railbanked for decades until the rails were finally pulled up in the mid-2010s. I actually remember paralleling the abandoned PE along I75 during road trips to the southeast from Wisconsin. As for the rest of the PE that remained, I believe it went to CSX after the split. Although they didn't have much use of the line west of Danville towards Urbana.
This was my best day on the Bloomington District and my last D36 chase to date. It was one of the handful of times I actually saw two trains on the BLD. In the morning, I caught a slow moving grainer heading south. The regular D36 then made it's normal midday appearance in Gibson City. In another case of being saved by the scanner, I heard D36 discussing with the dispatcher about picking up some MOW cars in the siding at Osman. This move allowed me to get both ends of the siding, as well as Mansfield seen here. After Mansfield, I made it to Lodge just in time. This particular shot I wanted for a long time with a straight -2. But normally I passed it up because I'd shoot the signals at Osman which, unless driving like an absolute maniac or the train running into problems, meant you'd not make it here. Very fond memories of this day that will likely never be repeated for me.

Aster and Chrysanthemum flowers ...
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you,
I could walk forever in my garden.
