Mi pequeño aporte al pool Designer Wallpaper, con una (entre tantas) definición sobre el diseño, al menos desde mi punto de vista :P
In English: "Design is inspiration mixed up with expiration"
"We are not afraid of death, we afraid that no one is probably going to miss our absence."--These lines are one of my favorite quote and most of the time I remember this when I enter in my facebook info page and see these lines are highlighted there. In most of the cases I see it and then leave it there. But today I was having an idle and hot like hell afternoon in home and started to think the most frequently asked question since the beginning of time,"What is death?" Definitely it's a question out of my league so stopped there after a while and did what these days every person with an internet connection do, googled it! Yes, many answers came out and I became lost out there. I've experienced this afternoon the clinical-religious, ancient-modern and so many different kinds of definition of death but every single one of them tells the same story in different packages. So, there I stopped and went back to the quote. In my mind death is something where we will be missed, missed by people we love, people we care.
I tried tilt shift with my 50mm f/1.8 here. It was fun doing this experiment.

High-Definition Television (HDTV) introduced this year by Rogers Television (Toronto's leading television broadcasting company).
Now with more realistic and a higher resolution than traditional television systems, standard-definition TV (SDTV).
Less is sometimes more and better!
HDTV digitally broadcast over analog broadcasting television (DTV) signals require less bandwidth due to digital video compression and provide a much more realistic picture.

Yeah, this is a couple: mom and her son, sitting outside the Petco store and whiling away the afternoon, as she scans her smartphone for interesting messages.
The bond between these two may seem rather loose and casual in this scene ... but they appear to be part of an ethnic group that's a little different from the "mainstream" New Yorkers typified by the guy strolling past them, oblivious, in the foreground. But even if they are completely ignored by the mainstream New Yorkers, they know they belong together. They are, indeed, a couple.
************************
I am fascinated by the couples I see out on the street, and have decided that I should devote a Flickr album to show you some of the examples I’ve seen. It’s only been the past couple of days that I’ve decided to focus on couples specifically, so it will be a month before I feel that I can review and edit the new photos I’ve taken, without being too subjective about what I like and dislike. In the meantime, I’ll go through the photos I’ve already taken—which extends back over 45 years—to see which couple-related photos look worthy of bringing to your attention.
Why am do I find couples so interesting? The simple answer is: public displays of affection. I’m a sucker for situations where I see a couple embracing, hugging or kissing; and I can’t help smiling even when I see an ordinary couple walking down the street, holding hands. Sometimes it’s even more subtle: it may be only the body language that shows you something special is going on. Indeed, sometimes I have to be very careful: the mere fact that two people are walking side-by-side on a crowded street does not necessarily mean that they even know each other, let alone that they are a formal couple. But you can usually tell by watching for a few seconds: even if they are not holding hands, a “real" couple will tend to adopt a common stride, and they’ll move their legs and feet in tandem. Sooner or later, one of them will look at the other; or one of them will reach across and grab his/her partner’s hand.
Sometimes it’s not the affection that catches my interest, but the individuals themselves. If it’s two beautiful people, I can’t stop help staring in amazement and appreciation. And if it’s two ugly people, I often think to myself, “Thank goodness the two of you found each other!” Sometimes one of them is beautiful, and the other one is not; and then I find myself thinking, “What on earth is he doing with her?” Or, obviously, the converse: “What on earth is she doing with him?” Sometimes the situation does not cry out, “These two don’t belong together,” but merely, “Who on earth would have predicted that these two would have found each other? I wonder how that ever happened?”
Of course, the very term “couple” can be a little tricky these days — especially in a large, multicultural city like New York. Most of the couples that I see are old-fashioned traditional “straight” couples; but more and more of the couples are gay pairs, of one persuasion or another. I’m delighted that the gay couples look happy and unembarrassed; and I’m even happier that nobody (at least here in NYC) pays any attention to them.
Indeed, my definition of “couples” is broader and more general than just two adults who have some kind of relationship. I’m equally interested in couples that consist of parent and child, or brother and sister, or even two friends who get along well but who may not have any romantic association at all. And it doesn’t have to be a twosome: three or four close friends, or a parent with several children, or any other reasonable combination, is still something I’m likely to notice and photograph.
So I’ll start this album by adding any existing couples that I’ve already photographed in the past (and who have thus appeared in one or more other Flickr albums of mine), and will add some notes to indicate why I think they are an “interesting” couple. That should keep me busy for a while, and within a few weeks, I’ll start adding “new” couples that I’ve seen on the street, and that I’ve decided photograph primarily they are couples.
If you see any of my other Flickr photos that you think should be included here, please let me know.

This is the continuation of a photo-project that I began in the summer of 2008 (which you can see in this Flickr set), and continued throughout 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012 (as shown in this Flickr set, this Flickr set, this Flickr set, this Flickr set, and this Flickr set)
): a random collection of "interesting" people in a broad stretch of the Upper West Side of Manhattan -- between 72nd Street and 104th Street, especially along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue. These are the people in my neighborhood, aka "peeps in the 'hood."
As I indicated when I first started this project six years ago, I don't like to intrude on people's privacy, so I normally use a zoom telephoto lens in order to photograph them while they're still 50-100 feet away from me; but that means I have to continue focusing my attention on the people and activities half a block away, rather than on what's right in front of me. Sometimes I find an empty bench on a busy street corner, and just sit quietly for an hour, watching people hustling past on the other side of the street; they're almost always so busy listening to their iPod, or talking on their cellphone, or daydreaming about something, that they never look up and see me aiming my camera in their direction.
I've also learned that, in many cases, the opportunities for an interesting picture are very fleeting -- literally a matter of a couple of seconds, before the person(s) in question move on, turn away, or stop doing whatever was interesting. So I've learned to keep my camera switched on, and not worry so much about zooming in for a perfectly-framed picture ... after all, once the digital image is uploaded to my computer, it's pretty trivial to crop out the parts unrelated to the main subject. Indeed, some of my most interesting photos have been so-called "hip shots," where I don't even bother to raise the camera up to my eye; I just keep the zoom lens set to the maximum wide-angle aperture, point in the general direction of the subject, and take several shots. As long as I can keep the shutter speed fairly high (which sometimes requires a fairly high ISO setting), I can usually get some fairly crisp shots -- even if the subject is walking in one direction, and I'm walking in the other direction, while I'm snapping the photos.
With only a few exceptions, I've generally avoided photographing bums, drunks, crazies, and homeless people. There are plenty of them around, and they would certainly create some dramatic pictures; but they generally don't want to be photographed, and I don't want to feel like I'm taking advantage of them. There have been a few opportunities to take some "sympathetic" pictures of such people, which might inspire others to reach out and help them. This is one example, and here is another example.
The other thing I've noticed, while carrying on this project for the past six years, is that while there are lots of interesting people to photograph, there are far, far, far more people who are not so interesting. They're probably fine people, and they might even be more interesting than the ones I've photographed ... unfortunately, there was just nothing memorable about them. They're all part of this big, crowded city; but for better or worse, there are an awful lot that you won't see in these Flickr sets of mine...
If you look close enough you can actually see I turned to the actual page where Love is defined in the dictionary. The shot wouldn't be complete w/out that.
Had to settle for an easy one to reach my goal of one entry for each letter of the alphabet, but that doesn't mean that I'll stop adding entries to the dictionary :-)

Forestree…
Physical and spiritual characteristics united in wild places covered with plant vegetation of all sizes and forms in a countree; rural. land, forests, deserts, swamps, mountains, rivers, oceans, unpolished, rustic, natural, organic.
Outside view of the front of the old convict built Fremantle Hampton Rd prison superimposed with an image of the native Western Australian bush. The bush scene is my attempt to give the viewer a small glimpse and an understanding of what was pulled down to build this prison and all the other buildings in this area of Western Australia when the first settlers arrived from England around 200 years earlier.This image is the view from the Roundhouse prison, looking straight up High Street, Fremantle, Western Australia.
Added to each image in this album are their inspired stories to this emerging family HISHERTREE.
Each image has a word title that would have been spelt in English with "try" at the end like ancestry, carpentry, or infantry. I have added "tree" to replace the "try" and then taken their dictionary meanings that are only ever describing the outside physical world and married some spiritual elements.
For me this is adding the culture of the spirit light back into the English language.
The human beings body lives in the outside world of the physical but their inner self lives in the realm of spirit.
Este es un fotómetro de selenio calibrado en GOST (Abreviatura de Gosudarstvenny Standart (Государственный Стандарт, en español: Estándar del estado) que es un conjunto de estándares internacionales del CEI (Comunidad de Estados Independientes), desarrollado en la antigua URSS y actualmente mantenido por el Consejo Interestatal para la Estandartización, Meteorología y Certificación). Permite aperturas desde f:1,4 a f:22 y de velocidades de obturación de 1/1000 de segundo a 15 segundos. Tiene un rango unico y acepta velocidades de película a partir del 4 a 320 GOST y también se calibra en la norma DIN. También tiene una escala auxiliar. Un filtro de color blanco se proporciona para su uso como un medidor de luz incidente. Está hecho de baquelita negra y viene en un estuche de cuero marrón.
Hay una variación que tiene una tabla de conversion de velocidad en la parte posterior del medidor y no tiene DIN en el dial. Esto parece ser idéntica a la metro Moscú.
Instrucciones básicas de operación; Ajustar la velocidad de película, transferir la lectura al dial, leer la velocidad de obturación y apertura marcados, y transferirlos a la cámara.
ADVERTENCIA: Las células de selenio tienen una vida delicada, siempre cerrar el estuche cuando no se usa, para proteger a la célula.

According to information obtainable on the interwebs, Engine 14 is a Baldwin 2-8-2 Mikado type Steam Locomotive, built in October of 1912! That's the same year the Titanic sank! And yet there it sits, right in front of me at the East Broad Top Railroad in Orbisonia, PA. The Friends of the E.B.T. graciously opened their doors for a tour of the roundhouse and shops. Sadly the Scenic operations shut down in 2011, but they patiently await a new owner who hopefully will see the deep value in this historic site. It gave me goosebumps to stand in this roundhouse again since I had visited a couple times as a child. It's really quite the experience to check this place out!
If there ever was one, this shot is it. After positioning myself on the opposite side of the footbridge, I checked the diagrams to see that this working had been routed via the slow line at Balshaw Lane Jn. Darn. I also didn't realise there was a southbound Pendolino racing up behind me, and in the original version of this shot, the rear coach is just beyond where I've cropped. DRS 57002 'Rail Express' leads the 4Z20/1520 Crewe CS to Carlisle Kingmoor container flats move, which comprised of a pair of IDA intermodal flats. Seen at Euxton, 19/06/18.
Recently completed assemblage, utilizing encaustic wax, paper mache, wire, paper, found objects, vintage trunk shelf and quail eggs. 16x36"
