Peaceful Saturday

A meeting that took place in 2019 and many photos taken, some of which have already been published:

Another take on one of my camellia flowers.

 

This time around, I used multiple exposures focused at different depths in an attempt to get exact focus everywhere on my subject. Each of these shots was then loaded into Photoshop, which aligned them. Then I merged the stack, keeping only the sharpest parts of each photo.

 

This particular variant is the third one I've exhibited on Flickr. The first one was lighter and more neutral. The second was darker but more dramatic. Unfortunately, the colors were off in that variant. This variant retains some of that dark drama but addresses the blown-out color. I hope you like it :).

 

As the title suggests, I am revisiting this subject. It might be interesting to compare it to the last year's model:

In a lot of my flower photos, I have used a back-light to bring out the translucency of the petals. Unlike many of those photos, this photo was not back-lit.

at the Royal Albert Hall, London October 2014

Good Year For the Roses was written by Jerry Chesnut in 1970. It's been recorded by a few over the years and I think it's probably one of the saddest songs ever. I love it by Elvis Costello and The Attractions. (He's another one of my all time fave singers). Released by him with The Attractions back in 1981.

Been trying my hand at some ICM (intentional camera movement).

 

(You could say the 'slide' was in-camera ;))

I realized earlier this week that I have never actually posted any of the photos I took of Elvis Costello a few years back at Riot Fest in Chicago. I'm not as huge into his music on an emotional level but respect his unique sound, inspiration to so many bands and level of talent. I hope he has a really nice birthday today.

 

Also, I just found out he's been a vegetarian for longer than I have! Great job, Elvis!"

Apparently Christmas is more real when it's viewed in 3D. The glasses got passed around a fair bit so everyone could experience the amazing wonder of Christmas in RealD 3D.

 

I also look waaay too much like Elvis Costello.

that's a great article, i've been saying this very thing since day 1 of 3D TV. Don't need it, don't want it, don't want to sit around with glasses on my head. What if you have a superbowl party? Share glasses for the big game? No.

Radio is a sound salvation

Radio is cleaning up the nation

They say you better listen to the voice of reason

But they don't give you any choice

'Cause they think that it's treason

So you had better do as you are told

You better listen to the radio...

Curieux ! Je n'avais jusque là pas éprouvé le besoin d'ajouter la photo qui me sert d'avatar dans la galerie de portraits de mles héros personnels. Encore que je sois toujours un peu circonspect quant aux notions de 'héros', 'idoles'....

Bref, c'est une image iconique pour un album non moins iconique.

J'ai longtemps cru que "watching the detectives" était sur la track list de cet album, et en fait non. Sorti en single, après "My aim is true", le 1er album d'EC, je dirai que Watching... était sur le pressage français de "This years model", le 2e album d'EC, mais peut-être me trompe-je.

Bref, on s'en fout.

May Peace, Love, and Understanding saturate your 2021!!

"(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love, and Understanding" is a 1974 song written by English singer/songwriter Nick Lowe. Initially released by Lowe in 1974, the song did not chart. The song was most famously covered by Elvis Costello & the Attractions and released as a B-side to Lowe's 1978 solo single "American Squirm." The cover saw great popularity and was later included on the American version of Costello's 1979 album Armed Forces. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(What%27s_So_Funny_%27Bout)_Peace,_Love,_and_Understanding

This picture of a young Elvis Costello looks hauntingly out from a badly earthquake damaged shop in Christchurch.

By way of a personal history project, a scan of the back pages of my adolescent diary, where I wrote down, how did I put it, "All the groups I've every seen." Apologies for my, um, iconoclastic spelling.

 

The first concert (or gig, as I might have said) was at the Rainbow in Finsbury Park, on Dec 17, 1977 (Yachts Blast Furnace and the Heatwaves The Boomtown Rats (I saw the Boomtown Rats the following year too. Too embarassed to write it down?). Lots of pogoing, not much gobbing, but the Boomtown Rats didn't really inspire that sort of thing. There were real punks in the audience, but the Boomtown Rats had appeared on Top of the Pops, and there were Rats' fans too - girls wearing school uniforms (after their hit "Mary of the Fourth Form") and boys wearing pajamas ('cause Johnny Fingers their keyboard player wore pajamas).

Sometime in 1980 or early 1981 I stopped writing down the bands I went to see. Probably because it started to seem a bit trainspotterish, or I'd started having beers at concerts and couldn't be bothered to write things up when I came home, or I misplaced this notebook. So there's no record of seeing U2 two or three times (serious chaps with mullets), or the Birthday Party (who out of all these bands, and the competition is fierce, probably were the most extraordinary act live). I saw most of these bands in London, a few in Boston.

 

Note on the links: I've linked to All Music a lot, hope that works. If not I'll go through at some point and find better links. Only Joy Division and Mission of Burma seem to have fans obsessive enough to list every performance of those bands. I'm not surprised, I've met some of those fans. There are a number of bands I saw which seem to have left no trace, (and I don't remember a thing about them). If any of these names are familiar to you (in the context of the late 70's), let me know.
