A Northern Cardinal on Avery Island, Louisiana, near dusk, hence the very soft focus. They must have been the models for angry birds, right?

A little rain cleans the streets, and heaven knows, they need cleaning. You can probably tell which corner of SF I work by the repeat pictures I take.

Off work today and not too much to do so just taking it easy.

A short walk earlier -this is the little wood just a field away from my house.

Nos crimes contre l’Humanité…

 

Comment peut il y avoir un dieu lorsqu’il a détourné les yeux de ces millions de miséreux humiliés, tués, bafoués pour avoir seulement existés ? C’est aux hommes de cœur, aux Justes, aux Sages, à ceux qu’ainsi l’on nomme dans de biens lointains paysages qu’il faut ici bas rendre hommage.

 

Malgré le peu, voire le pas, de religion cultivé, avoué sans pardon, mon âme se déchire et pleure lorsque je pense à leurs malheurs. Ces êtres humains bafoués jusque dans leur seule dignité je les vois alignés, rangés, comme de vulgaires paquets, des tonnes de viandes à brûler sans un remord et sans pitié.

 

Des images en noir et rouge défilent en mon regard hagard, toutes ces mères sacrifiées, tout ces enfants déchiquetés, ces humains simplement, gazés au nom de « nobles » idéaux. Encore aujourd’hui, pas fini, on assassine sans vergogne, on tue, on meurt et on massacre pour des icônes de métal qui grogne de bonheur létal des sacrifices de ces fléaux.

 

C’est un violon qui me l’a dit, c’est lui qui sanglote en mon lit lorsque sans raison aux poèmes la haine fait place la peine. Tous autant que nous sommes nous pleurnichons sur nos si bas maux alors qu’il y a un demi siècle et quelques années de monnaie des gens de peu, des gens de bien, des tous les jours, des trois fois rien montèrent comme du bétail dans des wagons pour le foirail.

 

Itzhak m’a redit aujourd’hui ; « Repense à Schindler et n’oublie jamais que c’est avec les mots, les notes, les images et du cœur que l’on évitera au monde de parjurer nos crimes contre l’Humanité… »

Nuestros crímenes contra la Humanidad...

 

¿Cómo puede haber un dios que ha desviado la mirada a millones de seres miserables y humillados, matados, y ridiculizados sólo por haber existido? A los hombres de corazón, a los Justos, los Sabios; a esos cuyos nombres nos llegan desde paisajes alejados, es a quienes homenajeamos.

 

A pesar de haber practicado poco la religión, reconozco que sin perdón, mi corazón se rasga y grita cuando pienso en sus desgracias. A estos seres humanos que pusieron en ridículo su dignidad los veo alineados, arreglados como vulgares paquetes, toneladas de carne que se quemarán sin remordimiento ni compasión.

 

Las imágenes en rojo y negro desfilan ante mi mirada despavorida; todas esas madres sacrificadas, esos hijos despedazados, esos seres humanos simplemente, gaseados en nombre de “nobles” ideales. Aún hoy, esto no ha terminado Se asesina sin vergüenza, se mata, se muere y se masacra para símbolos de metal que protestan por la felicidad letal de los sacrificios de esta plaga.

 

Me lo dijo un violín, él es quien llora en mi cama cuando sin razón en los poemas el odio deja sitio al dolor. Nosotros lloriqueamos sobre nuestros tan bajos males mientras que hay un medio siglo y algunos años de moneda de la gente de a pie, de la gente de bien, de la gente de todos los días, de las "tres veces nada" subieron en vagones como el ganado va a la feria.

 

Itzhak me repitió hoy; “Recuerda a Schindler y nunca olvides que con las palabras, las notas, las imágenes y el corazón, evitaremos que el mundo vuelva a que uno evitará en el mundo perjurar nuestros crímenes contra Humanidad…”

 

Homenaje a Itzhak Perlman, Oskar Schindler y a los millones soldados, deportados o simples ciudadanos de todos países muertos durante la segunda Guerra Mundial...

Our crimes against Humanity...

 

How can there be a god when he diverted the eyes of these million humiliated paupers, killed for having only existed ? It is to the men of heart, to "les Justes", "les Sages", those which thus we name in so far landscapes that we should here returned homage.

 

In spite of the little, even the nothing of religion cultivated, acknowledged without forgiveness, my heart tears and cries when I think of their misfortunes. These human beings ridiculed until in

their only own dignity I see them aligned, arranged, like vulgar packages, tons of meats to be burned without pity.

 

Images in black and red ravel in my losted glance , all these sacrificed mothers, all these shredded children, these human, simply, gazed in the name of "noble" ideals. Still today, not finished , one assassinates without shame, one kills, one dies and one massacres for metal icons which scream of lethal happiness of the sacrifices of these plagues.

 

It is a violin which said it to me, it is it which cry in my bed when without reason for poems hatred makes place the sorrow. All of us, we cry on our so low evils whereas a half century plus a few years of currency, people of little, people of good, the "everydays", the "three times nothing" went up like cattle in coaches for the market place.

 

Itzhak repeated me today; "Reconsiders in Schindler and never forgets that it is with the words, notes, images and the heart which one will avoid in the world to perjurer our crimes against Humanity..."

 

Tribute to Itzhak Perlman, Oskar Schindler and to soldiers, deportees, millions of ordinary citizen of all countries died during the second world war...

  

Wandering around west Main on Christmas day. The Old Western Saloon was open. Prince Charles had a pint here once.

OK this was a wierd experience for both of us.

Playing around yesterday evening, using tree ornaments as prisms.

Camped out for an hour or so, looking for the albino jackrabbit once more. It turned up. It has two buddies which would have been much easier to photograph, I wonder does it sense that it contrasts more with its surroundings, it's so much more nervous, last to step forward, first to bolt.

 

Anyway, likely to be my last effort this summer. I don't have time to come back for quite a while. Something a bit magical about seeing it, I can see why so many myths and superstitions surround white offspring of any species, sadly so much being negative and hostile, because of the alleged "demon" eyes. The good news is that it seems to be accepted by the other rabbits in the group.

Shy exploring one of the Crooked River tributaries yesterday. This is weather, he was made for. Still offline, be back later this week.

These ones are probably long since gone. ..so imagination comes into it.

the series goes from left to right, capturing the sunset in the west, the streets running north and final capture depicts the east river.

but eerily quiet yesterday.

I took this shot at the hypocenter of the nuclear blast in Hiroshima, which is the surface location directly below the nuclear explosion.

 

On Monday, August 6, 1945, at 8:15 a.m., the nuclear weapon "Little Boy" was dropped on Hiroshima from the Enola Gay, and detonated approximately 600m directly above this exact spot, immediately killing at least 70,000 and destroying 70% of the city's buildings. In short, with a vanishingly small number of exceptions, anybody standing within 3/4 kilometer of where I was standing ceased to exist instantaneously. Of course the casualty numbers expanded dramatically over the coming days, and indeed months.

 

Truth be told, I'm not a bleeding heart, and can understand those who rationalize the necessity of this event, as much as those who believe it is an inexcusable horror that should never have happened. It did happen though, and the consequences were real and undeniable, and still can be felt when you stand in a place such as this. If you have the means and opportunity to visit Hiroshima sometime in your life, do.

Tree reflection.

 

I think this means I've finally water-marked an image.

Shipka Memorial Church is a Bulgarian Orthodox church built near the town of Kazanlak between 1885 and 1902 to Antoniy Tomishko's design in the seventeenth-century Muscovite style, under the direction of architect Alexander Pomerantsev. It is, together with the other parts of the Shipka Monument complex, dedicated to the Russian, Ukrainian and Bulgarian soldiers that died for the liberation of Bulgaria in the Russo-Turkish War, 1877-78.

 

The temple was officially opened on 28 September 1902 in the presence of Russian Army generals and many honourable guests. The opening and consecration of the Shipka Memorial Church coincided with the 25-year anniversary of the Battles of Shipka Pass. In 1970, the temple was proclaimed a national monument of culture.

Poor night heron trying to get some daylight zzz's, but the Grackles are back, as noisy and boisterous as ever, no wonder he's red-eyed.

This is no b&w picture... The evening light was incredibly soft, showing only faint layers of the mountains in the slight fog. In the lower right corner you see Fraueninsel with the clocktower of the monastery's church. Taken from a public transport boat to Chieming on the east coast of Chiemsee.

 

The original contrast range was around 3 f-stops. I used lightzone for linux to create a more appealing picture of this extremely flat shot.
