In nature, everything has a job. The job of the fog is to beautify further the existing beauties!

Isn’t art about breaking rules, about challenging existing systems, isn’t it about discovering meaning in things or situations before others see anything in them? Your work makes you an artist, not your title :-)

Aucazein is a village in the Ariège department of south-western France. The plan was to string a few existing long distance trails together and hike along the Pyrenean foothills from the Mediterranian to the Atlantic. I love the old world charm of French villages where finding a bakery can be one of the day's highlights. Most long distance trails in Europe offer more of a cultural than a wilderness experience. This was day 23 of our hike and we were following the GR 78 (Voie du Piémont) which is part of the Way of St. James pilgrimage trail network. Eventually all these trails are leading to the shrine of the apostle Saint James the Great in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain, where tradition has it that the remains of the saint are buried. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camino_de_Santiago#/media/File:Ways...
even in the solitude of the white winter robe,
two hearts become one.
Love has a two stems
but only one flower
and every beat of this heart
is existing Love.
HtmT, all!
Now I know Matford is not exactly a household name in the automobile industry, and to be honest, I had not heard of it before either! So, don't feel bad, you are not alone. When I first came upon it at the show, this only one made along with another Matford model sitting near it, I thought, hmm, this looks like a Ford from the late thirties or early forties, but not quite. It/they had some similarities, but also were a bit different, and it was until I did the research once home that I knew what I was dealing with, and here, below, is what I found.
The Matford Company was the result of a joint venture between the US-based Ford Motor Company and the French-based Mathis S.A. Created in 1934, Matford sales progressed from 1,049 in 1935 to 8,898 in 1938 before falling to less than half that number as the company focused on producing trucks for the French Army and slow the German advance.
Ford's ambitions went beyond the North American continent, and had assembled Model Ts in France through 1927, the Model As from 1927 to 1931, and the Model Ys from 1932 to 1934. As Ford continued to expand in the European market, Mathis S.A. was encountering financial difficulties. Since Mathis had an underutilized factory at Strasbourg (officially in France following frontier changes formalized in 1919), Ford saw an opportunity to increase production rather than pursue expansion at their existing workshop in Asnières-sur-Seine. An official joint venture was formalized between these two entities on October 1st, 1934, dubbed SA Francaise Matford. Ford owned 60% and Mathis the remaining 40%. The early production were versions of American and British Ford models assembled at the Strasbourg factory.
Committed to the success of Matford, Ford provided substantial amounts of capital to modernize the Strasbourg factory.
Matford was formed between the bookends of The Great Depression and World War II, and its longevity would ultimately be suffocated due to the German occupation and its proximity to the German border. Hindsight, as they say, is 20/20
The automobiles that were initially built by the newly formed Matford Company were similar to the V8-powered Ford Model 48s built in the United States. A year later, in 1936, the Matford Alsace model appeared and was offered with either a 2,225cc or 3,621cc V8 engine. The 1937 models were generally known by their fiscal horsepower ratings, the 13CV and the 21CV.
With World War II on the horizon, civilian automobile production ended in 1940, and manufacturing focused on truck production for the French army. Since the Matford Strasbourg factory was close to the German border, the contents were moved to Ford's Cologne plant. A new Ford plant opened at Poissy near Paris in 1940, and following a restructuring (including the end of its association with Mathis), the Ford Société Anonyme Française was formed.

Project: The Cliffs - Tyger Waterfront, Cape Town
Description: One of the structural projects from our office in which I had some involment.
Consists of three blocks, the one on the left being a 12 Storey Luxuary Appartment block which overhangs the existing lake. The two 8 Storey blocks toward the right will be utilised for offices.
With another bluebird sky today, it looked like these folks were setting up their Otter ice fishing tents for comfort - gas powered ice augers and even interlocking foam flooring squares for insulation. It took only minutes to set up but the kids had already found a couple of existing holes to try their luck.
"Tunnel of horror" at the ICC Berlin is closed
It can be seen in movies and TV series. Now the world-famous pedestrian tunnel near Messe Berlin is to be closed. These are the reasons.
Few pedestrian tunnels in Berlin are as well-known as the one between the International Congress Center (ICC) and the Central Bus Station (ZOB). Whether in "The Bourne Conspiracy", "The Hunger Games" or "Captain America: Civil War", stars such as Matt Damon, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Downey Jr. have jumped through the underpass in major action films. Now the underpass in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, also known as the "Tunnel of Horror", is to be closed. This was confirmed to the Berliner Zeitung by the Senate Transport Department.
In future, pedestrian traffic is to be organized exclusively above ground. To this end, the crossing is to be rebuilt, the transport administration said in response to an inquiry. A timetable has not yet been set.
The Tagesspiegel quotes from a letter from the Senate Chancellery in which the closure is justified with "existing deficiencies in terms of accessibility, fire protection and pedestrian safety". Other reasons cited include "soiling and increasing neglect" as well as "annual maintenance costs of around 350,000 euros". When asked by the Berliner Zeitung, the Senate confirmed that the tunnel would be closed because accessibility is not guaranteed and the maintenance and cleaning costs are too high
„Tunnel des Grauens“ am ICC Berlin wird geschlossen
Er ist in Kinofilmen und Fernsehserien zu sehen. Nun soll der weltbekannte Fußgängertunnel nahe der Messe Berlin geschlossen werden. Das sind die Gründe.
Kaum ein Fußgängertunnel in Berlin ist so bekannt, wie jener zwischen dem Internationalen Congress Centrum (ICC) und dem Zentralen Omnibusbahnhof (ZOB). Ob in „Die Bourne Verschwörung“, „Tribute von Panem“ oder „Captain America: Civil War“: Durch die Unterführung sprangen schon Stars wie Matt Damon, Jennifer Lawrence und Robert Downey Jr. in großen Action-Filmen. Nun soll die auch als „Tunnel des Grauens“ bekannte Unterführung in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf geschlossen werden. Das bestätigte die Senatsverkehrsverwaltung der Berliner Zeitung.
Der Fußgängerverkehr soll in Zukunft ausschließlich oberirdisch organisiert werden. Dafür soll die Kreuzungsanlage umgebaut werden, hieß es von der Verkehrsverwaltung auf Anfrage. Ein Zeitplan stehe noch nicht fest.
Der Tagesspiegel zitiert aus einem Schreiben der Senatskanzlei, in dem die Schließung mit „bestehenden Mängeln hinsichtlich Barrierefreiheit, Brandschutz und Fußgängersicherheit“ begründet wird. Als weitere Gründe werden darin die „Verschmutzung und zunehmende Verwahrlosung“ sowie die „jährlichen Unterhaltskosten in Höhe von ca. 350.000 Euro“ aufgeführt. Auf Anfrage der Berliner Zeitung bestätigte der Senat, dass der Tunnel geschlossen werde, weil die Barrierefreiheit nicht gewährleistet ist und die Instandhaltungs- und Reinigungskosten zu hoch sind
Nearing the west end of the Tunnel District, a westbound unit oil train has emerged from Tunnel 27. Tunnel 27 is one of the longer tunnels in the district, and it has (roughly) 90° curve in the middle of it, so you cannot see one portal from the other.

There is despair all around us. It is hard not to see that. Yet so many ignore what is right before us. I am also blind to much of it.
Happy Sliders Sunday
I don't understand the sliders group. Not even a tab to add a photo. Posting to the group is disbled.
Second picture of the series The Dead Beach.
(Horizontal panoramic view in the blue hour, about an hour before sunrise, you can still see the waning moon and some stars, along with the first light of the new day. For this totally different from the previous shot, I reached an aerial view from the cliff to the north of this amazing and magical beach)
Sunrise at Beach Of The Dead -Almería-
This beach gets its name because of the strong currents existing in the area, which dragged the bodies to the beach of the shipwrecks that occurred near them.
Shooted with my new Canon EF 16-35mm f/4L IS USM, wonderful lens, I felt very comfortable using it, I think it is perfect in every way.
The picture is a unique Raw, with only combining a neutral filter of four steps and black card technique.
I hope you like it. Have a nice Wednesday. :)

Here is a shot I took a couple of months ago at my summer house during sunrise. The moment was magical and one could truly sense existence and peacefulness.
The final image is a combination of two HDR outputs from 4 different exposures processed first in Photomatix and finaly masked and finalized in PS.

Yeah I know his look isn't all that different, it's mostly his backstory that is.
Backstory: Deke Shaw, born in the year 2091 had to fight to survive. In a world where different alien races ruled supreme, Deke would learn how to fight at an early age. Like his grandfather, he is pretty smart, which allowed for him to find ways to get ahead of everyone. He didn't really know his father, as he left at an early age, and his mother died when he was 10.. He would later become a bounty hunter, equipped with tech he would develop. Eventually, he found a way to travel back in time. Even knowing the consequences of traveling back to the past and existing in that time, he didn't care. He travelled back to the year 2018, when his grandparents were still alive. He had heard stories of his grandparents, Jemma Simmons, and Leo Fitz, on their different SHIELD adventures. He came from beyond the stars to meet his grandparents. They are everything he could ever imagine and more. He decides to stay in the year 2018 permanently, as he doesn't really have anything to go back to. Calling himself Star Lord, he travels to different planets as a bounty hunter, coming back to Earth quite frequently to visit. While on Earth, he develops feelings for an Inhuman named Daisy Johnson, who is more well known by her other name Quake.

[BARTENDER NOT PART OF THE POSE!!!]
Thanks for modeling for me Nathan!
Several years ago my son gave me a Colorado Blue Spruce. At the time is was smaller than the little piece of limb you see here. It doesn't grow fast but it does grow pretty.
Free hand on a breezy day with no flash. I got lucky....
I've been waiting for this to start taking shape. It is part of the Delta Junction of HS2, specifically where the north Birmingham chord joins the main line. We are looking north along the HS2 main line, running underneath is the existing main line between Water Orton and Lea Marston. There will be six tracks on HS2 here; three on the main line, on the viaduct that travels straight across in the foreground, it forms the River Tame West Viaduct (the Tame is behind the camera). Alongside is a single track part of the main line, separated to allow the Birmingham chord to join, that is on the River Tame East Viaduct. The other two viaducts will rise over the main line and curve towards the camera, Water Orton No. 1 and Water Orton No, 2. There is lots to see, including people working inside the viaduct segments, and lines of segments in the background waiting to be moved forwards. The segments are made nearby (off to the right of camera), and each is cast using the previous segment as a template, so they will fit together nicely. The train is also an HS2-related working, 4H96 Small Heath - Tunstead.
Located in Matsumoto City , Nagano , Japan.
The castle tower of Matsumoto Castle is one of five national treasure castle towers existing in Japan.
This castle was constructed in 1504 and is the oldest castle tower as the five-story castle tower.
I think I got the Ansco Color Clipper about ten years ago. I haven't "seriously" shot with it in a few years, but I brought it along with me this past weekend.
I'll probably shoot more with it this season. I'm not really sure of its purpose just yet, but I'll find one. Or I won't, and that's fine too.
This was taken in the early morning inside Yakima Canyon. I also shot a similar scene with the RB67, but it didn't work out so well.

The Carolina Rediviva, the Royal University's library, contains a collection of ancient books and maps. Pictured here is the library's main treasure, the Silver Bible written in silver ink for the Ostrogothic king Theodoric the Great in VI century AD; this is one of the main existing texts in the long-extinct Gothic language..

This is a hand-held, existing light shot with 400 ASA film. Note the Texas and American flags in the upper right hand corner. The Texas State Flag was originally the second flag of the old Republic; the first was a star on a field of blue. Texas was a republic--albeit a shaky one--from 1836-1845. The Texas flag has a right--by treaty--to be flown at the same height as the American national flag. Someone--I think in a PBS mini-series--explained why Texans are so proud and arrogant: "Once a republic, always a republic." As a fifth generation Texan, I can't argue with that.
