A detached house at the end of a road where all the others are semi-detached. It has a bit of land too, so I'd imagine that this will be demolished and several houses will rise from the site.

Taken from about 50 yards from the previous 'Old Northumberland' upload, this is will be the view they see across their back gardens towards the coast at Boulmer (where they look to be getting very wet!).

Beyond the foreground field is the big new Willowburn estate being extended with the Duchess' Secondary school and the Lionheart Industrial Estate visible beyond. The A1 runs between the two around the eastern side of the town.

This was an idea of my Flickr friend Jim Hill. I already posted two of those images separately and he proposed that it could make a nice triptych if I included a third one with a modern digital look. He saw more in this triptych as well as he noted that the amount of people in the images could stand for the growing accessibility of photography. Kudos to you, Jim!

 

If you like this triptych, head over to Jim's page and leave him a few likes. If not, head over there all the more and find something you like. His night images from Chicago stand out and are among the most interesting work here on Flickr.

 

This also concludes my series of images from Corfu. Tomorrow, a series in Frankfurt will start.

Abstracted the forms some, this land soon being developed. Black rock referring to the black lava rock.

Over fertilized plants may be beautiful but are otherwise useless, like people whose energies are devoted so completely to their appearance that there is no other development.

Photo 3 from the Des Moines Series

 

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa

 

"You can almost hear her gasp!

 

A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....

 

Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.

 

But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.

 

“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”

 

and the change of light and color

Huge abandoned Industrial complex

Set in a gated community amidst nurturing green and the white glory of the pagoda dogwood, this condominium birdhouse development offers luxury apartments and stylish single homes. It is situated in the Children's Garden of Ellyn's LOST GARDEN.

 

NOW! What are YOU doing about the latest iteration of Flickr??

** SmugMug - who conjured up that name?! From having looked it over, I can't see staying. To me, it seems that too many things are happening at once!

CP grain empties 318-144 continues its gradual climb up the Elk River Valley through the incredibly scenic mountain town of Fernie, BC.

 

Fernie is one of those rare places where no matter which way you face, the mountain scenery will take your breath away. Apparently many other have noticed this also, as there are several large housing development projects starting and ongoing in town. This oft photographed angle was at the periphery of a construction project when I shot this in late May of 2025. Hopefully the view remains, unobstructed today and in the future.

Said Bear found some ribbon and decided it would look better on him than a jam jar. He likes mauve against green. So do I, so harmony prevails.

I really do not enjoy the process of taking sunset photos, having to be in the perfect place, at the perfect time is something I have difficulty with - and my lens being incompatible with (sensibly priced) filters doesn't exactly help either, but all in all despite the bitching, I'm pretty happy with how this one came out.

Me and a friend started to play around and have some with Lomography Redscale XR, a film with strong red cast. We tried to tame the overwhelming look by shooting the stock at night. Here is one of my favorite shots. Lomography Redscale XR, rated at 160, shot on Rolleiflex T2 using a KF 1/8 pro mist filter. Development and Scanning done by the excellent SafeLight Berlin lab.

Development at Mount Wise

The development road at Ocean Reef Marina. This is a temporary access road that I use to access the site.

I’ve been thinking recently that there is something missing from flickr, (well something that I haven’t found yet). A kind of place (group) that has the ability to inspire, to welcome experimentation, a place that has a lot more depth than the usual shallow resting place for hundreds of images. I want equality, a place that isn’t run by power obsessed admin's, a place that isn’t a all closed network of buddies, a place that welcomes true thought, true learning, true experimentation. I want to visit to contribute, to experiment, to crit others work, to have a balanced group of people that respect others values. I want a place that doesn’t have any irritating insecure people trying to tell you how good they are. Yes I'm wanting a lot and I do get these things from different groups (id say about 3 or 4 that I visit regularly) but I want them all in one place.

 

To be honest, I would like to cherry pick the people I value (for many reasons) and get them together and create a new group that would be fantastic. But I also don’t want to upset anybody…and god not another group, please no not more groups.

  

I also have been wondering if there isn’t a better way of developing ideas, sparking inspiration. For me I would love to get more involved in a discussion-based group concerning the ideas behind photography. Kind of the deeper physiological elements to why we take photos, what the viewer feels, presenting challenging concepts, blar blar blar. I feel that to push in these directions is fascinating. As some of you may have observed, I've been trying to get this type of thing going in the threads of some groups, but it doest seem to be working. What I'm asking here I suppose is does anybody know of any groups that offer this type of thing or do I have to set one up, or do I try and push one of the groups I'm involved in into this direction? Also I wonder if there is any others out there, who are committed enough and have the desire to challenge them selves, push themselves in different directions. I only know of a few people here on flicker that I ‘Guess’ would welcome this type of direction but id truly love to meet more. This isn’t about just image quality (that is a given) its about ideas, experimentation, forging new ground (if that’s possible)

 

Anyway, any thoughts out there?

 

Note: this is taken on Constantine beach at sunset this summer. I got down very low and used a polarizer to maintain the foreground leading lines. Anyway I hope you like it.
