SRA: DISTANCIA:

 

Junto con saludarla, me dirijo a usted;

Por el motivo que paso a mencionarle:

 

Si bien su lugar (su puesto), es de común normalidad (familiar desde siempre);

Y sabiendo que solo yo (y nadie más que yo), le cuestiona el porque de su existencia.

Usted desde hace un tiempo (hasta ahora) a mi modesto parecer, se ha distraído

De su real función; siendo yo más diáfano, y dándoselo a entender desde un modo más

Personal; usted se ha estado entrometiendo entre yo y una ilusión (que alimento segundo tras segundo) y a causado estragos y daños severos viéndome por supuesto yo afectado.

Tras un estudio minucioso y acabado que he realizado hace algún mes atrás, he logrado concluir, que lo que usted esta llevando a cabo (motivos desconocidos para mi) huyen totalmente de la línea; de la ética que a usted la debiese guiar.

Me veo entonces en la humilde, pero tajante obligación de informarle que la próxima ocasión, en que yo estando o siendo parte de mi descanso nocturno, o efectuando alguna de mis labores diarias (cosa que no entrare en detalles); mi mente colapse de pronto con dudas, sentimientos u otra sensación hasta ahora ajena y que no me es de común sentir; usted y nadie más que usted será la única culpable y para lo cual tendrá que acatar las consecuencias.

Porque gracias a usted señora distancia; no es el amor que se esfuma; aquí lo perjudicial son las avalanchas de dudas y preguntas sin sentido con las que a diario se me es imposible aprender a convivir.

Le menciono que la intención de mi petición no es una amenaza ni un futuro (o posible atentado) sino más que nada es una simple observación que como afectado le informo.

Estando y siendo claros los motivos de mi carta, y no existiendo por el momento otro. Me despido, no sin antes desearle un buen y provechoso día.

   

Vixo.

This is a photograph from the second running of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon ("The Flatline") was held at Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 14th September 2013 at 11:00. There was beautiful weather for the event which started and finished at St. Aloysius College near the Canal Banks area of the town just slightly west of the River Shannon. This event was professionally organised and the very flat course meant that many runners both seasoned and new to the scene achieved season or personal bests. Almost 1,000 participants successfully completed the event in the beautiful September sunshine. Everyone involved must be congratulated for the flawless running of the event. This event is sure to go from strength to strength over the coming years. The "Flatline" also included an option for a full marathon which was fully supported by the Marathon Club of Ireland and the East of Ireland Marathon Series. This allowed participants to run the Flatline twice for the qualifying marathon distance. About 80 people took part.

 

This is a photograph which is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the start and finish of "The Flatline" 2013. The URL of the main set is www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157635495089498/. There are some photographs of the finishers of the marathon.

Overall Race Summary

Participants: Such is the popularity of the race this year that registration closed for the race in mid-August 2013. There were well over 1,000 participants who took to the start line.

Weather: The weather on the day was almost perfect for running. The runners were bathed in warm September sunshine for the duration of the race and into the early afternoon. In the sections of the race out towards Clonown and around the Bord na Mona areas there was a stiff breeze but nothing major.

Course: "The Flatline" ceratinly lived up to its name. It is as flat a course as one is likely to find. A garmin connect gps trace of the route is provided here [connect.garmin.com/activity/199678412] Geographically the course spends much of the race in County Roscommon with only the first and last kilometers actually in County Westmeath. This gives geographically inclined runners the novel opportunity to race in two Irish provinces in one race. The course had distance markers at every kilometre and mile along the way. There were official pacers provided by the race organisers.

Location Map: Start/finish area and registration etc on Google StreetView [goo.gl/maps/8qCes] - Ample parking was supplied with some over-flow car-parking options also available.

Refreshments: An Alkohol Frei bottle of Erdinger was provided to every finisher as they crossed the line. Light refreshments were served.

This also extends the use of these images for Facebook profile pictures. In these cases please make a separate wall or blog post with a link to our Flickr page. If you do not know how this should be done for Facebook or other social media please email us and we will be happy to help suggest how to link to us.

 

Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

 

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

 

I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

The sky has lost its color

The sun has turned to grey

Atleast that’s how it feels to me

Whenever you’re away

I crawl-up in the corner

As I watch the minutes pass

Each one brings me closer to

The time u’re coming back

..i cant take the distance

I cant take the miles

I cant the time until I next see u smile

Photo uploaded from the #HopeInSight Photo Competition on photocomp.iapb.org held for World Sight Day 2020.

This is a photograph from the first running of the Mullingar Half Marathon which was held on Tuesday 17th March 2015 St. Patrick's Day Lá Fhéile Pádraig in Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland at 11:00. Just under 600 people participated in the event which was a wonderful success on the event's first running. The event was in aid of the charity Childline. The weather was perfect for distance running and the course was a perfect mixture of town, flat bogland country roads and a long stretch along the beautiful Royal Canal. The race started on Austin Friars' Street and finished in town park beside the Annebrook Hotel.

Introduction “The Stairway to Heaven Manuscript” – Blueprint to communicate with Infinite Intelligence…………… “I took 3 nights and 3 days off of work, to step by step find out why I ended up where I did, and what I was like in the past — there were a series of beliefs about changes, and problem solving, and crisis management, etc etc that were tied to negative beliefs, not positive — since you can’t change the past, the only way this could be done would be to change certain beliefs about types of events, and place them in a certain sequence working from the present to the past, systematically having all past experiences not have effected me at all. — I got to the sequence of changes needed, and found them to be “in theory” correct. Then I had to believe that if I could adopt these beliefs, in the order I had written, that they would work / instantly HEAL my Depression problem. I had to also believe that my mind would accept these new beliefs without question, and that I had come up with a way to fix all issues at once, and most importantly, the plan would work.

At one of our quick stops the other day, I happened to notice this particularly beautiful tree a short distance away, covered in bright yellowy/green Lichen. Couldn't resist taking a shot or two, needless to say. I don't know if it's Wolf Lichen, which is the only Lichen, in my extremely limited knowledge, that is this colour.

 

My friends, Cathy and Terry, and I, had left Calgary early morning on Wednesday (14 May 2014) and I think it was around 12:15 a.m. midnight (Thursday, 15 May 2014), that they dropped me off at home after two long, wonderful days in the Rocky Mountains, west of the city. Wednesday night was spent in a spotless motel, in a place that had so many Mountain Sheep roaming the streets, lol! Though we were hoping to see at least one Bear, I was happy as can be to see absolutely anything beautiful : )

 

Over the two days, we had 7 bear sightings, with three definitely different Black Bears (no Grizzlies), and possibly four. The rest of the sightings were of Bears we had already seen. My friends are good at telling individual bears, often by a certain scar and, of course, the actual location. Many of the bears we see, they have seen before. Basically, it's all about timing, as with any wildlife. A few minutes earlier or later and we would have missed seeing something special. We just happened to be lucky. All wildlife/nature photographers know it's all about timing : )

 

I was so tired after the trip, that I had no choice but to fall into bed at 7:00 p.m. yesterday evening, thinking that a short nap might be a good idea. I slept for something like 13 hours with a couple of hours awake in the middle. I think the excruciating pain in both arms and shoulders was a factor in my utter tiredness, too.

This is a photograph from the first running of the Mullingar Half Marathon which was held on Tuesday 17th March 2015 St. Patrick's Day Lá Fhéile Pádraig in Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland at 11:00.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

 

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

Sketch of the car chase from the film "Striking Distance" with the drivers singing "Omegaman" by the police.

This is a photograph from the second running of the Athlone Flatline Half Marathon ("The Flatline") was held at Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Saturday 14th September 2013 at 11:00. There was beautiful weather for the event which started and finished at St. Aloysius College near the Canal Banks area of the town just slightly west of the River Shannon. This event was professionally organised and the very flat course meant that many runners both seasoned and new to the scene achieved season or personal bests. Almost 1,000 participants successfully completed the event in the beautiful September sunshine. Everyone involved must be congratulated for the flawless running of the event. This event is sure to go from strength to strength over the coming years. The "Flatline" also included an option for a full marathon which was fully supported by the Marathon Club of Ireland and the East of Ireland Marathon Series. This allowed participants to run the Flatline twice for the qualifying marathon distance. About 80 people took part.

 

This is a photograph which is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the start and finish of "The Flatline" 2013. The URL of the main set is www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157635495089498/. There are some photographs of the finishers of the marathon.

Overall Race Summary

Participants: Such is the popularity of the race this year that registration closed for the race in mid-August 2013. There were well over 1,000 participants who took to the start line.

Weather: The weather on the day was almost perfect for running. The runners were bathed in warm September sunshine for the duration of the race and into the early afternoon. In the sections of the race out towards Clonown and around the Bord na Mona areas there was a stiff breeze but nothing major.

Course: "The Flatline" ceratinly lived up to its name. It is as flat a course as one is likely to find. A garmin connect gps trace of the route is provided here [connect.garmin.com/activity/199678412] Geographically the course spends much of the race in County Roscommon with only the first and last kilometers actually in County Westmeath. This gives geographically inclined runners the novel opportunity to race in two Irish provinces in one race. The course had distance markers at every kilometre and mile along the way. There were official pacers provided by the race organisers.

Location Map: Start/finish area and registration etc on Google StreetView [goo.gl/maps/8qCes] - Ample parking was supplied with some over-flow car-parking options also available.

Refreshments: An Alkohol Frei bottle of Erdinger was provided to every finisher as they crossed the line. Light refreshments were served.

The second assignment in the Strobist Lighting 102, where you vary the distance of the light source from the subject.

 

Here I am a constant distance away from the background - 5 feet away from a neutral grey wall.

 

Notice how the background is dark when the camera is close to subject, and lighter as it gets further away. Yes, the light power varies (increases as you move it away) but the exposure of the subject is adjusted by changing the aperture.

 

Just as David Hobby said it would!!! Something about that inverse square law?? That "the closer you get to the light source, the lighting values change quicker. Move further away, and the distance (think of it as a ratio) becomes less and has less effect."

 

Very cool. Another "ah-ha" moment.

Broadford is just a short distance from Melbourne in Victoria, Australia and is the location for the annual Bike Bonanza run each Easter by Motorcycling Australia at the State Motorcycle Complex. Here over one thousand motorcycles are in action at the road racing circuit, moto-cross and enduro tracks, trials area, and speedway.

The feature marque this year was Moto Guzzi including the appearance of six factory racers from the 30's, 40's, and 50's. No apologies for a lot of photos of these bikes as I will probably never see or hear them again. Thanks to the Italian owners for bringing them South. The collection of Guzzis in the car park was also in the hundreds.

This is a large folder with 345 photos and probably only shows a quarter of the bikes present.

A great weekend with friendly atmosphere and the chance to see and hear some great machines.

I have tried to get all the labelling correct but if you have some more information let me know and I'll add it.

Enjoy the photos. I can provide higher resolution if needed. No cost but if you use them I would like credit given.

Stockerston church lies some distance to the west of the village, approached by a long lane and situated on high ground next to the privately owned Hall. It is a handsome late medieval building, having reached its present form in the 15th and early 16th centuries.The church consists of chancel and nave flanked by aisles (both being a bay shorter than the nave itself) and a west tower with generously sized belfry windows, all finished in local ironstone that has grown attractively silvery with lichen.

 

The light interior has much of interest, it has not been too heavily restored and retains many antique features with various monuments and memorials (including a pair of fine brasses now displayed at the west end) and remains of ancient woodwork (though the original screen has gone, however there is an unusual stair-turret that once led to its loft in the south aisle). The outstanding survivals here however are in glass, with isolated panels of 15th century stained glass surviving in several windows, the most complete being the St Christopher at the west end, and a sainted bishop and scene from Christ's passion in the north aisle. Usually one is lucky to find mere fragments of the lost medieval glazing, but here at least those fragments are substantial with several complete panels and images.

 

Stockerston church was easily my favourite of our day exploring Leicestershire (18 churches visited of which we found 11 open) and is one I thoroughly recommend. Sadly visiting isn't normally so easy as it is generally kept locked outside of service times and I'm not sure if there is a keyholder so it may be necessary to make prior arrangements to visit the interior.

The park was named after the Apenrad magister, provost and antiquarian Troels (Trogillus) Arnkiel (1638-1712). He described some of the sites in detail on his Ox Trail hike in 1690. In 1702 appeared his book The Cimbrian Heyden Religion.

Looking into the distance. Just thinking!

Stasis in darkness.

Then the substanceless blue

Pour of tor and distances.

 

God’s lioness,

How one we grow,

Pivot of heels and knees!—The furrow

 

Splits and passes, sister to

The brown arc

Of the neck I cannot catch,

 

N*****-eye

Berries cast dark

Hooks—

 

Black sweet blood mouthfuls,

Shadows.

Something else

 

Hauls me through air—

Thighs, hair;

Flakes from my heels.

 

White

Godiva, I unpeel—

Dead hands, dead stringencies.

 

And now I

Foam to wheat, a glitter of seas.

The child’s cry

 

Melts in the wall.

And I

Am the arrow,

 

The dew that flies

Suicidal, at one with the drive

Into the red

 

Eye, the cauldron of morning.
