This piece, entitled "Log Cabin on the Tenth" is finished, along with a couple of other pieces..and the hard work of the morning was preparing entries for a couple of submissions to a juried show that I like to participate in. The process is both easier, and more difficult than in the past...no more slide film to buy and have processed...but the computer MUST be made to do a lot of things in an extremely specific way...by someone who is not a master. I have survived the morning and am feeling a little better.....
Mural entitled "Mother" by Sef aka @sef.01, seen at 414 North Carpenter Street in the West Town area of Chicago, Illinois.
The artist states: "Today my wall talks about the most selfless love in the world, the love of a mother. That is why I chose this wall, because just as the bridge protects against rain or any inclement weather, so is the love of a mother for her children, an infinite love whose desire is always to protect and love their children above all things. Happy Mother's Day to all those women who every day lavish the most sincere and beautiful love that exists. I dedicate this mural to them."

Dug out of the archive to contribute to a photo club theme entitled "Hands and Feet". Taken on July 12th, 2008 at my home when I lived in the Charente, France. The adult finger is my left index finger and the tiny hand clutching it is my grand-daughter Hermione's. Dicey shot: I had to hold the camera in the other hand to take the shot.

This was part of the spectacular show of light entitled ‘Science’, created and produced by Luxmuralis Artistic Collaboration.
Visitors were able to walk through the History of Science in the stunning interior of Winchester Cathedral. Almost every inch of the Cathedral was bathed in light and full of beautiful original compositions.
The display saw the almost 1000-year-old building become the canvas for an exploration of the way in which scientists have shaped the past and will influence the future. This unforgettable multi-sensory experience transports visitors through elements, molecules, DNA, and the greatest discoveries of humanity, as we contemplate the wonders that make up the world around us.
The installation was the creation of the award-winning collaboration of artists known as Luxmuralis, a collaborative team of artists from different backgrounds and artistic disciplines who create works across multiple media and presentation formats. Core to their work is the opportunity to explore the development of fine art tradition through new media, placing the medium in an art historical context.
In this part of the cathedral the choir stalls are earliest nearly complete set in England dating from about 1308. The back wall has a blind arcade of pairs of trefoiled arches with encircled cinquefoils above and exuberant foliage in the spandrels. In front of the panels are thin shafts supporting cinquefoiled arches and encircled cinquefoils.
The scrolling list of chemical compound here was being projected onto the Great Screen. This was built in 1455-75, of fine-grained limestone, behind the high altar. The present statues are 19th century, which explains the presence of Queen Victoria among the Saxon monarchs. The original statuary was broken up at the time of the Reformation but much was recovered and is displayed in the Triforium Gallery. The whole restoration of the Great Screen was overseen by Dean Kitchin.

In an article entitled 'The Loon Lake Colony 1922-2012' by Bob Blatchford, David Oborne and Jim Oborne ice houses were described:
"Up until 1953 when Hydro arrived, cottage life was rustic and basic. You were lucky to have running water via a hand pump. Wood stoves were your oven and heat in the early mornings. Most people had ice houses and ice boxes. Leo and Elburn Meeks Sr. cut the ice on the lake and using a horse drawn sleigh, took the blocks to the cottage ice house each winter. They spread sawdust on the ice to help it survive the summer heat. The ice box in the cottage was zinc lined and made of oak. The ice was put on the top level, food inside. They was a tray on the bottom to collect water. The ice had to be replaced every 2 days."

I have self-published my second book entitled 88. It features an afterword by the British photographer Paul Russell, and the launch in Portugal took place on October 26, 2025.
This new book, 88 (88 images), is the second volume in a duology that began with my 2020 publication of 99 (99 images). The newly published book (88) measures 330 mm x 225 mm (hardcover), with 184 pages.
This photographic collection in “88” features images captured primarily in my home region in Portugal, which includes Caldas da Rainha, Foz do Arelho, and Óbidos. This body of work is considered unique because these locations have been largely unexplored by other street photographers.
My shadow appears as the guiding thread throughout the sequence of photographs, thus connecting my presence from behind the camera to my presence in front of it while participating in the composition. Adopting the philosophy of street photography, I embarked on a journey to find the extraordinary within the ordinary routines of daily life. This was a personal pursuit of serendipitous moments, brought to life by the grace of light. While the photos feature color and the interplay of light and shadow, you’ll find frames embedded with wit, humor, and subtle enigmas containing deeper elements of hidden stories, puzzles, and mystery.
Interested individuals can contact me via message. vasco.trancoso@gmail.com
Thank you.

the Grand Prize was awarded to 田 园园 (Tian Yuan Yuan) from China for this image entitled ‘Break Time’. Congratulations Tian 😊!
‘I was glad I could participate in the #NikonPhotoContest. When I got the notification that I had won, I was surprised but at the same time really honoured. My feelings of gratitude really go out to the #Nikon company, and also to the contests’ management committee as well as the judging committee. I will be sure to keep on doing photography from now on.’
Commenting on this image, Lead Judge, Neville Brody, shares, ‘The main winner this year, is an epic and powerful image, one addressing the global theme of #climatechange and the necessary shift from industrial to less pollutant practises. This image captures that concern in an intense and emotive way, made more poignantly dramatic by being in black and white. The workers in an iron factory are silhouetted through the smoke in the rays of light that break through from the outside of this otherwise unlit space, one that extends into the unknown in the billowing plumes of smoke and darkness at the edge of frame. Through the open door we see a tree and leaves, reminding us of the fragile nature beyond, one which needs our urgent protection. This iconic image can apply anywhere in our world right now: we can imagine this happening as we speak, in Europe or America, Asia or Africa.
Like a scene in a religious painting, the image is beautiful in its use of chiaroscuro, the utilisation of light and dark to tell a story, and has strong echoes with the work of painters like Goya, Caravaggio or Veronese. The framing and structure, while heavily cinematic, is classically Renaissance, with the diagonal lines of light drawing the eye into the centre of frame where the drama is shrouded by the reverse diagonals of smoke. Silhouettes of workers resting by the door merge into the darkness, and the centre of the image is occupied by a single raised tool hovering over a crouched worker while others look on. A solitary electric fan sits by the entrance, evidently incapable of extracting the toxic fumes. Beautiful, dramatic and powerful, I would love to have a large print of this image on my wall!': a thought echoed by the entire jury.

Currently in Mechelen (Flanders – BE) we have the exhibition entitled AL GAL from the cartoonist Gerard Alsteens, who became famous for his many contributions to the weekly issues of Knack magazine. The first impression for any visitor to this exhibition is that Alsteen’s artistic reach is much broader than just these cartoons for the magazine. He paints various types of objects (oysters, wine bottles, wooden panels, mussels, book covers, or just wire) with the faces, or situations, of figures we often know from (inter)national politics, thereby delivering a critique which is deserved and justified and carried by his political engagement and critical insight in what happens around us on the world stage. The leading metaphor and object of his expressive power is the human face in its various expressions to reveal, or hide, what is actually going on. I especially like his mussel pot, which is at the same time also a face. This object of art is made along the Belgian tradition of the “Grande Casserole de Moules” of 1966 from the Belgian artist Marcel Broodthaers. But the expressive power of Alsteen’s casserole is completely convincing and I recognised Broodthaers in this portrait made of mussels. As a second highlight photo I have chosen a panicking face painted on an oyster, reminiscent of the famous work “The Cry” (1893) from Edvard Munch. In my view, Alsteens stands in the tradition of painters like Munch, but also James Ensor of which I recently made a small photo contribution on my photostream.
When I left this outstanding exhibition I paradoxically felt relieved, because it appeared that the many critical works of art actually had worked, for me, as an outlet for my own indignation about the various world affairs that had served as an inspiration for this artist. Besides admiration, I felt a healing effect: art is so much better than bitterness, or rage. Anybody in the vicinity of Mechelen is advised to visit this exhibition, in the Midtown Cultural Centre (CCM) until 22 August 2021.
This remarkable sculpture, entitled 'Iron-Bowl' (the famous Alabama Vs. Auburn annual matchup) stands on the campus of the United States Sports Academy in nearby Daphne, Alabama...it is one of several sports sculptures on campus by Alabama artist Bruce Larsen who transforms discarded scrap into powerful, compelling works of art...he has received world-wide recognition for his work and is also a prominent special effects artist for major motion pictures...
This year's Alabama versus Auburn Iron Bowl game takes place this afternoon at 2:30...all I can say is...ROLL TIDE!!!

This is one of the lumen prints from my first ever art exhibit entitled Blooms held last May 18, 2022. It features lumen prints of endemic and other Philippine flora. The exhibit runs until August 5, 2022 at the UPLB Sining Makiling Gallery. This is a jade vine lumen print. This woody vine is endemic to the tropical forests of the Philippines.
globalnation.inquirer.net/204307/blooms-us-based-nurse-ho...
From Wikipedia:
Strongylodon macrobotrys was discovered in 1841 on the jungled slopes of Mount Makiling, on the Philippines’ Luzon Island, by members of the United States Exploring Expedition led by U.S. Navy Lt. Charles Wilkes. One can only imagine how startling that apparition must have been, but we are left only with the description of the Harvard-based botanist Asa Gray, who had locked horns with Wilkes previously and elected not to join the voyage. As part of the task of describing the thousands of plants collected by the multi-ship expedition, which ranged from Honolulu to Antarctica and involved several violent skirmishes with the natives (Wilkes was court-martialed at the end of the expedition, but acquitted), Gray named the vine in 1854. Its species epithet macrobotrys means “long grape cluster”, from the Greek makros "long" and botrys "bunch of grapes",[6] referring to the fruit; the genus name derives from strongylos "round", and odous "tooth",[7] referring to the rounded teeth of the calyx. A member of the bean family, Jade vine is bat-pollinated in the wild, thus it must be hand-pollinated in greenhouses to bear its fruit, which can grow to be melon-sized. This has been done over the years at the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew Gardens in England, where seed conservation is an ongoing focus, especially in the face of loss of rainforest habitat.

It was almost time for the weekend again. Ahead of me lay the novel experience of my first ever flu jab. Everyone in Britain aged over 50 is entitled to a flu jab this winter, and it seemed rude to refuse my turn when it came along. A local clinic was being held in the village hall where we queued up patiently outside, waiting for our two minute window to arrive. I felt like the new boy at the office, a mere stripling compared to most of my fellow patients as we loitered and smiled politely at one another, announcing ourselves to one another not by name, but by the time of our appointment. I was Mr 9:38. So while Mrs 9:40, who'd arrived before me gracefully stood aside to allow me to pass, I in turn made way for Mrs 9:35 and Mrs 9:36. At 9:37 I timidly entered the hall and announced my presence, where I was directed to one of the four "jabbing stations." By 9:39 I was on my way back to the car. My left shoulder is throbbing very gently, but apart from that I'm fine, and presumably less likely to succumb to a dose of the flu this winter. Thanks for asking.
Later in the day I met my children for a long overdue lunch at the legendary Smokey Joe's. For the uninitiated, Smokey's is just off the A30, within 15 minutes' walk of home for me. Thought of by many as a truck stop, it is more often than not full of locals from Redruth and the surrounding area. The portions are generous to say the least.
Order the Hungryman's all day breakfast and unless you have the most enormous appetite in the universe, you won't need to eat again for the rest of the day. In fact you might still be trying to finish it at closing time. You probably won't feel the need to order dessert afterwards.
All of this excitement meant that getting outside with the camera on Saturday was looking unlikely. I'd resigned myself to this fact despite the sunshine, which was bringing conditions as pleasant as you're likely to see here in the middle of December. At this time of year, even on a good day the light is facing rapidly by 4pm. So it was fortunate that I'd already inspected the weekend weather forecast and decided Sunday was the day for me. Yes, I'd chosen driving rain, black clouds and high winds over benign sunshine and fluffy clouds.
Dave announced he had decided he's a fair weather photographer and wasn't coming. Lee was waiting for his wife to come home so that he could use the car. He said he might join me if he was able to a bit later. In truth I suspected I'd be alone. All morning today I looked doubtfully through the window at a world of terminally grey skies and drizzle, yet I remained confident that a gap in the clouds might come later - and when you want to watch the weather properly, there's no better place to go to than Wheal Coates.
The big waves that I'd hoped the incoming tide might deliver didn't happen on the grand scale I'd hoped for, so I had to resort to a hastily devised backup plan. I have something very specific in mind for this location, but I haven't quite had the right conditions yet. Of course what makes me happy about that is it means my business isn't done here yet. As I arrived though, the light had started to filter through those brooding clouds, throwing shafts of yellow onto the sea. This one was taken right at the beginning of the two hours I spent here today - a reminder that in winter you don't just wait for sunset because you can shoot throughout the day and the best light often comes early. The rest of the visit was spent battling the drifting rain and trying to keep the tripod steady in the wind. These challenges are always fun, and each time I encounter them I feel I've come away with a tiny bit more experience in dealing with them. I also now know exactly what's needed for the conditions I'm waiting for here. Hopefully they'll arrive soon enough. Hopefully I'll be ready to grab the moment when it comes.
Debut album entitled Horizon Line Test, a collaboration with Tim who also gets credit for the lovely cover art seen here.
Check it out over here:
A few years ago I published a shot which I entitled Finally - the Gherkin - it had taken me ages to get a shot that I really liked. The building is wonderful its shape so curvaceous - but its this very shape that made it so difficult to shoot. The shot was straight up to the top with the clouds whizzing over head. I was really pleased to get the shot. But over time I've looked at it and grown to think that the shot really didn't do the building justice - it didn't show off the beauty. So since then I've hunted all over the city for that view - and I'd pretty much given up it just didn't exist. That was until recently (well earlier this year) when a view opened up as the ever changing cityscape devoured another nondescript 60s building to be replaced - well by another probably nondescript office block. I've no idea how long this view will last below and the right the construction is well under way (one of the reasons for the long exposure) - but for now its there - I feel this shows off why I like the building so much.
I'd also like to say a big hello to all those photographers (and their friends and partners) I met on Monday at the opening night of Landscape Photographer of the Year - it was great meeting and chatting to you all. I have to say this years show is fabulous - some really fantastic photography on show - and well worth a visit - its free to enter and pretty much open all of the time - there's also loads of other fantastic exhibitions in london at the moment too - have a look here Must see Exhibitions

I was kind of dissapointed no one gave me any compliments tbh. I know that sounds entitled but I hear people giving cis women my age compliments in public sometimes (not talking about catcalling or anything gross like that which I thankfully don't deal with as a male).
I dressed on Halloween last year at college, including poorly applied makeup by myself, and went to a pizza place to pick up a pizza and brought it back to my dorm room. I didn't interact with anyone while dressed besides the person working at the pizza place. I don't really count that as a dressing session- plus, the wig had been sitting around for 11 months and hadn't been washed.
I've been living in a big city this summer and one day was out downtown and saw the girls/women around my age in their pretty outfits and thought "that could be me... I need to get back into crossdressing while I'm still young.." (turned 19 in May). A few months later, I got my wig washed, shaved my body, got my eyebrows waxed, nails done, and makeup applied by someone who knew what he was doing this time. Here are some of the best pics and videos taken by me, as I was alone again (as usual with this, but whatever), and the makeup guy. Hope y'all enjoy.

The Krazy Katalogers have entitled this "Semaphore of Haulbowline lighthouse, Irish Lights Department flag displayed, Co. Down"! That means that there are two conundrums therein. There are at least three signalling systems on display, the Semaphore Flags, the Signalling Flags and the light for Morse Code Signalling. The other conundrum, at least for Morning Mary, is Haulbowline and Co. Down being listed together? The only Haulbowline we are familiar with is down in Cork Harbour but perhaps that one has a twin up North like the recent shot of St. John's Lighthouse?

Artists Amy Rice and Terrence Payne, in collaboration with Sotheby's real estate group, announce the opening of their first joint exhibition entitled Nest. The artists have translated the imagery and patterns from their established 2d works and rendered them into the physical world by applying them to textiles, furniture and home furnishings in order to outfit the historic Alcoa House. The Alcoa House, a mid-century marvel for modern living was designed and constructed in 1958 by Charles M. Goodman for the Alcoa Aluminum Company to showcase the wonders of aluminum.
Artist’s Reception Friday October 17th 6-10 pm

This exhibition will also be open October 18th & 19th from noon until 5 p
In my adjacent photograph entitled "Bapaume and forgotten", I told the story of the Pikedale Soldiers Settlements and Amiens railway branch line on the Granite Belt in Queensland. This included the naming of localities along the railway after battles in France during WWI.
The nearby Stanthorpe Museum has the railway station (really sidings) name boards from along the line which closed in 1974. It also has a number of other railway relics from the area. Quite appropriately, red poppies are "planted" at the base of these signs. Except for Amiens at the end of the line, all of the other names define general localities, no towns as such. When you drive to Amiens today, these localities are still identified with green tourist signs beside the road, usually in front of a forest!
If you are interested, here is a small Wiki article on the history of the old railway.
Mural entitled "Luchando por mi Patria" by Victor Quinonez aka @marka_27 and Don Rimx aka @donrimx, seen at 2214 NW 1st Place in the Wynwood Arts District of Miami, Florida.
The artist, Quinonez, states: "Luchando Por Mi Patria translates to Fighting For My Homeland. This print represents two Latino artists who currently reside in the U.S. Both artists call the United States home and are heavily influenced by American cultures like graffiti and hip-hop, but have never forgotten their roots from Puerto Rico and Mexico. We continue to blend traditions while paying homage to our respective heritage and bring legendary Luchadores to this collaborative mural. Hailing from Puerto Rico is José Huertas González aka 'El Invader' and heavy hitter Alejandro Muñoz Moreno aka 'Blue Demon' from Mexico. We chose Luchadores because similar to graffiti artists they have alter egos and fight to be the best in the game! They also represent their homelands of Puerto Rico and Mexico."

This exhibits opens on Saturday, December 5 at Noon SLT (12 PM). DJ Irish will be providing her special brand of musical magic and we know you will enjoy yourself.
Please join us in celebrating the last month of the 2020.

“Everyone's entitled to their point of view but that's seriously a weird one.” ~Kevin Rudd (ex-Prime Minister of Australia)
"But the verdict of his colleagues, and the polls, was that changing Kevin Rudd was not a possibility. The problems were deep and personal. The brutal conclusion was he had to go." Brisbane Times
Today, Australia welcomes its first female Prime Minister Julia Gillard. Former Prime Minister, better known as K-Rudd had been quite popular with the public. Due to recent dropping polls however, he has been forced to resign, pressured to step down by his party members.
On election day, Australian voters vote for the political party they want to lead, but ultimately the party within itself decides whether the leader is still fit to keep their post. If not, they hold a vote only within the party, to oust the current leader to be succeeded by a new one. And the public has no say. It's pretty quick. My very simplistic understanding of Parliamentary politics... All I know is that today, we have a new leader for the country and the people didn't have a say in the matter, it feels strange.
Politicians are pretty infamous, not many people trust them because of broken promises; ineffective leadership, debates on environmental/animal/civil/religious/moral rights increasing taxes, poor health care, education just to mention a few. But a life trying "lead" so many citizens and get the country in working order, must be pretty difficult to say the least.
Today marks a clean slate for Australian Politics, or so we are led to believe.
"With great power comes great responsibility" ~Stan Lee
