Took in Huay Kaew waterfall, Chiang Mai. Water keeps running and running here. Life's not about keeping as much water as you could and eventually become a lake with dead water. Life is about running and running as far as you could so you could tell someone what you have been through and what you've got in your memory.
Extremely effeminate boy mannequin tries to get sassy with me as I see if the female mannequin above him has anatomically correct breasts that include nipples. The woman in the shop just looks at me like I'm weird...YOLO.

Since discovering the existence of the Gray Catbird a couple years ago while visiting Vernon (after living there for 17 years and never seeing one) I find myself going out of my way to find them so I can watch and listen to them. I find their curiosity and chatter entertaining - they are related to the Mockingbirds and Thrashers and mimic other birds, stringing the sounds together to make their own song.

Front cover of a 16-page (£1.50) programme issued by 2018-19 North West Counties League newcomers Cheadle Heath Nomads for the 2018 Boxing derby with Division One South rivals Cheadle Town. The programme is designed and printed by Matchday Creative (aka Chapel-en-le-Frith graphic designer Andrew Calvert). According to his website, Calvert produces programmes for about 20 clubs across northwest England and north Wales. He needs to employ a proofreader! The 11-paragraph chairman's welcome in this programme featured no fewer than 24 errors, most of them of grammar and spelling. The game, watched by 98 spectators at the ProSeal Stadium, finished a 1-1 draw. A red card in the 41st minute reduced Nomads to 10 men.

I believe that, existence is like an infinite river. Time is only an illusion, to let our mind, experience the water flow (Events) in a continues sequence. Thus, regardless of time, the whole river, exists in every moment...it means, NOW...at this time, your future & past, exist along your present. however, you just feel the present. I want to expand this abstract idea to social life...Walking among people...I see my different futures...based on different choices that I can make today....And I see my past...among youngers...who can be me,,,making similar choices...
... how beautiful is the rope of life...which collects billions of people,..like a lot of unrelated pearl pieces joined together as a neckband...
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants (plants of the division Magnoliophyta, also called angiosperms). The biological function of a flower is to affect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs. Flowers may facilitate outcrossing (fusion of sperm and eggs from different individuals in a population) resulting from cross pollination or allow selfing (fusion of sperm and egg from the same flower) when self pollination occurs. Some flowers produce diaspores without fertilization (parthenocarpy). Flowers contain sporangia and are the site where gametophytes develop. Many flowers have evolved to be attractive to animals, so as to cause them to be vectors for the transfer of pollen. After fertilization, the ovary of the flower develops into fruit containing seeds.
In addition to facilitating the reproduction of flowering plants, flowers have long been admired and used by humans to bring beauty to their environment, and also as objects of romance, ritual, religion, medicine and as a source of food.

Of the twenty-seven Tribal class destroyers built before and during the Second World War, HMCS Haida is the only one still in existence.
Named after the Haida First Nation of British Columbia, HMCS Haida is now a living memorial to all who served in the Royal Canadian Navy.
HMCS Haida earned the title of ‘Canada’s most fightingest ship’ because she sank more enemy naval and merchant vessels than any other Allied warship. The HMCS Haida became famous for its role in the destruction of several German ships. Between April and September 1944 alone, it sank nine enemy ships. In total, the Haida helped sink 14 ships during the Second World War.
The Tribals were designed to fight heavily armed destroyers of other navies, such as the Japanese Fubuki class.[5] Canada chose the design based on its armament, with the size and power of the Tribal class allowing them to act more like small cruisers than as fleet destroyers.[6] Haida was among the first batch of Tribal-class destroyers ordered by the RCN in 1940–1941. They were ordered with modified ventilation and heating systems for North Atlantic winter service. Haida's design was modified after deficiencies were noted in the lead ship of the Canadian Tribals, HMCS Iroquois.
Haida, as one of the British-built Tribal-class destroyers, was 335 feet 6 inches (102.26 m) long between perpendiculars and 377 feet (115 m) long overall with a beam of 36 feet 6 inches (11.13 m) and a draught of 13 feet (4.0 m). As built, the destroyer displaced 1,927 long tons (1,958 t) standard and 2,745 long tons (2,789 t) at deep load.[5][7] Haida had a complement of 14 officers and 245 ratings.[7]
The destroyer was propelled by two shafts driven by two Parsons geared turbines powered by steam created by three Admiralty-type three drum boilers. This created 44,000 shaft horsepower (32,811 kW) and gave the ship a maximum speed of 36.5 knots (67.6 km/h; 42.0 mph). The destroyers could carry 505–516 long tons (513–524 t) of fuel oil.[5]
As built, Haida was fitted with six quick-firing 4.7-inch (119 mm) Mk XII guns placed in three twin turrets, designated 'A', 'B' and 'Y' from bow to stern.[note 1] The turrets were placed on 40° mountings with open-backed shields.[5] The ship also had one twin turret of QF 4-inch (102 mm) Mk XVI guns in the 'X' position.[5][7] For secondary anti-aircraft armament, the destroyer was equipped with four single-mounted 2-pounder "pom-pom" guns. The vessel was also fitted with four 21-inch (533 mm) torpedo tubes for Mk IX
Torpedoes.
"Y " turret was completely removed and replaced by two Squid anti-submarine mortar mounts ( 3 mortars each) placed on the quarterdeck just before it was decommissioned in 1963. They lobbed a 500 lb depth charge bomb each at a measured distance from the ship to Kill Submarines.
A hyperrealistic surreal portrait of a young woman standing among shelves of colorful yarn balls. Her entire body and outfit are seamlessly made of flowing, three-dimensional strands of yarn in vivid rainbow hues—red, blue, green, yellow, orange, and violet. The yarn wraps tightly around her form, creating mesmerizing patterns that emphasize her elegance and symmetry. Her hair transforms into a radiant crown of coiled yarn, resembling both a headdress and a halo of creativity. Her piercing turquoise eyes contrast with the explosion of color surrounding her. The atmosphere radiates artistry, craftsmanship, and surreal fashion. Ultra-detailed, high-definition textures, cinematic lighting, 4K photography aesthetic.

'The Scheldt river owes its existence to God, and Antwerp owes its existence to the Scheldt river' is a popular saying that shows how important the river Scheldt is for the city of Antwerp. Thanks to this waterway Antwerp has become the second-largest harbor in Europe (after Rotterdam), and the fourth largest harbor in the world.
Although the open North Sea is about 60 km away from Antwerp, the river is so large that sea-going vessels and large oil tankers can sail to deliver their products in the vast port area of the city.
Until the 19th century, the harbor was situated right at the entrance of the city, alongside the riverbanks where now the 'Steen' -castle stands. The port was enlarged in the 19th century with an artificial dock, the so-called Napoleon Dock. During the French occupation of Belgium, Napoleon wanted to turn the Antwerp Harbor into a military port, from where he could attack England in case of war.
The new harbor is situated further north of the city, between Antwerp and the border with Holland. The importance of the Harbor in the Second World War (for bringing in allied military equipment) brought with it that Antwerp was severely hit by V1 and V2 rocket bombs, sent by the Nazis in the last years of the war to handicap the Allied troops by bombing one of the most important harbors.
Since the 1950's the use of containers has grown steadily. Antwerp is now the eight largest container port in the world.

"May 16, 1860
"There has been a cooperative company in existence at Rochdale, under the style of the `New Bacup and Wardle Commercial Company,' for about twelve years. They are incorporated under the Joint Stock Companies Act, and unlimited. They commenced operations at Clough House Mill, Wardle, near Rochdale, with power to raise a capital of £100,000, in shares of £12 10s., £20,000 of which was paid up. They then increased to £30,000, and about five years ago built a large factory, Far Holme Mill, near Stackstead, of 100-horse power steam, in addition to Clough House Mill; and the half year ending October last they paid a dividend at the rate of 44 per cent on the paid-up capital (Mr. Patrick reports on the 11th June, that the New Bacup and Wardle Commercial Company, `Far Holme Mill, Bacup,' have just declared another dividend of 48 per cent on the paid-up capital), and they have now increased their capital to the sum of £60,000, and have largely increased their Far Holme Mill, near Stackstead, in this neighborhood, requiring two more engines of 40-horse power each, which they are about to put down. The large majority of shareholders are operatives who work in the factory, but receive wages as workmen, and have no more to do with the management than to give their vote to the annual election of the Committee of Management. I have been through the Far Holme Mill this morning, and can report that, so far as the Factory Act is concerned, it is as well conducted as any in my division. I think, though I did not ask them the question, that they have borrowed money at 5 per cent interest.

"Planes of existence" is a series of random shots I did in front of a big advertising video screen on the sidewalk of "Sunshine Street" in Ikebukuro, Tokyo as people walked by. Some of the shots have an eerie multi-planal effect to them.
