Fall sunsets are often lovely in South Carolina. After a stressful election season, tonight's sunset seemed like a celebration of peaceful voting.
I'm torn between continuing to scream out the frustration and pain, or whether I should just shut up and try to post beautiful pictures. I try to look away and concentrate on my little world. But as I know myself, it will still burst out of me from time to time. Thank you for tolerating my opinion on this election and on the overall development of our world.
This truck had a UAW Kerry sticker on the driver's side and a Bush sticker on the passenger side. Couldn't get close enough to get a clearer picture.
It'll be interesting to see what smart aleck comments show up on this one.
The WolfgangstraÃe in the sunset on the evening of the federal election. 84% participation means quite a lot of people on the street.
Thank you everyone for your visits, faves and comments, they are always appreciated :)

I did not vote in this by-election. It was my way of protesting Liberal party and their way of mis-spending our precious tax dollars, in project fiasco like E-health. Also the HST proposal, which, I do not thing will create more jobs at all. In last election less than 2 years ago. I voted for George Smitherman. He won by a landslide of margin. People had high hope of him to make a difference. In return, he did not stick around at all. He was eyeing for a bigger position -- the Toronto mayor seat.
I could've voted for either NDP or Tory. But these candidates and their supporters (including Liberal) were pestering me everyday. They were outside subway entrances, in my apartment building at dinner hour, knocking on doors and littering a trail of flyers as they go from floor to floor. It was pretty disgusting.
In the end. Liberal has won again and it has some cleaning up to do. Not only its image. But first it has to clean up the streets!
I could tell it was election time in Canada and Ontario.
Had a rafter of 7 turkeys show up in the yard today.
Not sure which political party they represented but they all fed off the corn that was out for the little birds.

A Moussavi supporter was injured in a demonstration. Witnesses reported that at least one person had been shot dead in clashes with the police in Vanak Square in Tehran.
Tehran’s streets erupted in the most intense protests in a decade as the police clashed with demonstrators who claimed that former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had stolen the election.

At the end of the election, families and friends gathered in a restaurant next to a temple to watch the results come in on the TV. Was almost like watching soccer match.
A poster encouraging people to vote in Israel’s 2022 General Election. The slogan says “If you don’t wake up, a surprise awaits you in the morning. On 1 November go out to vote for what’s important to you.” A shocked man is in bed next to the smiling features of the leader of Israel’s religious-right, Itamar Ben-Gvir.
This poster is in Nazareth, an almost entirely Arab city, and was presumably aimed at countering what had traditionally been low turnout among Arabs in Israel’s elections. 2022, however, like most recent elections, saw high Arab voter participation, and Ben-Gvir entered government anyway.
Today (sunday) has been Election day here in Sweden and I have been voting and up following the results which are very even, so it is hard to tell what our government will look like.
Check out this short article and see why:

I was on a brake between assignments with the railroad. There was a roll of film that had a few shots left so I decided to grab the camera and take a walk from Union Station, down Pennsylvania Avenue to the The Ellipse, just out side of the south lawn of The White House. I wanted to document the mood during this important day in our nations capitol.
I read this light hearted piece about our election today and it did make me laugh.
An explanation of how our Election turned out.
So the Conservatives won...but lost ...Labour lost ....but won....the SNP won and lost in Scotland but still won and the Conservatives won in Scotland but lost.. .the government was Tory but now can't be even though it is still and they need to make some Irish people Tory so they can be in charge even though they were and still are...UKIP lost but because of Brexit they already won ...18 Independent won but didn't win because they don't have a party so they lost but are now MPs so they won ...the winner, Theresa May, is being told to resign because she didn't win and she won't because she won even tho she lost...
All seems perfectly straight forward to me. In fact clear as mud.

November 7, 2020 - Decatur, Georgia - Spontaneous celebration near the Decatur Square yesterday after Joe Biden was declared winner in the 2020 presidential election.
After a contentious, intense, and nasty 2020 election cycle in the USA, a winner has emerged and much to the pleasure of the residents in Washington, DC, whose reaction was that of half the nation. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. People were conscious of the health warnings and wore masks, but, the joy of a change in administration was too much to bare. Thousands flooded the streets in jubilation. I lived in the DC area for over 40 years and never seen such a scene like this.
I am also on Instagram.
A quick trip to the Buffalo National River area offered this image of the cabin's backyard, sky, and moon hiding behind a tree.
Currently negotiating with PS about saving the camera's metadata. The EXIF is still there but no camera data. Ah upgrades are always one step forward and two lateral moves.
