Le Secret is
What you are basically, deep deep down, far far in, is simply the fabric and structure of existence itself. Reality itself is gorgeous, it is the plenum, the fullness of total joy. Wowee! And all those stars, if you look out in the skies, is a fireworks display, like you see on the 4th of July, which is a great occasion for celebration. The universe is a celebration. It is a fireworks show to celebrate that existence is. Wowee.
This is the real secret of life: to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now, and instead of calling it "work," realize that this is play.

DM&IR 411 leads a northbound empty Minorca through Virginia, MN back in July 2004. CN had merged the Missabe out of existence a couple of month prior, but things still looked pretty much the same on the Iron Range. I remember more times than the daily train for the Minorca Mine during this late Missabe/early CN era would be in the late afternoon, but here a morning train.
The CTC searchlights here were installed on the DWP from Shelton Jct. to Minorca Jct. when the Missabe obtained trackage rights over the Peg to serve the newly opened Minorca Mine in 1977. This short stretch of CTC remained the only signals on the former DWP until CN put signals north of Virginia in the mid to late 2000s. Now the entire former DWP/DMIR all the way down from the border through the Iron Range to the Twin Ports is CTC with searchlights long gone.

Normal people with extraordinary lifestyles
Along with smile and the gloomy, here life has its own rhyme, has its own colour.
Time passed by, humanity changed along with its history...
But these people remained here tolerating the hardest truth of existences
..........its their story of extraordinary existences.
Sakharibazar, Old Dhaka. A very interesting place for all of us to visit. Culture and customs of old Dhaka are the tribute to the ancient history of Bangladesh. Peoples still living in 100 years old building from generations after generations. With the reflection of their religious beauty Old Dhaka attracts peoples from here and abroad.
Shakhari Bazaar is one of the oldest mohallas (a traditional neighbourhood) in Puran Dhaka (Old Dhaka), located near the intersection of Islampur Road and Nawabpur Road;the two main arteries of the old city and only a block away from the Buriganga River. Shakhari Bazaar stretches along a narrow lane, lined with thin slices of richly decorated brick buildings, built during the late Mughal or Colonial period. Despite rampant modifications, accretion, extension over time, even redevelopment, many still bear the testimony of a rich tradition.
Shakhari Bazaar is the manifestation of the irrational policies, lack of adequate development control rules and distorted legal framework, all of which have left their indelible mark on this precious little mohalla that shares a long history of more than 400 years with Dhaka city itself.The history of Shakhari Bazaar goes back to the pre-Mughal days if not earlier. The first mention of Puran Dhaka can be found in the writings of Mirza Nathan, the general turned historian, who traveled with Subahdar Islam Khan. He mentioned Puran Dhaka, as the area between Dholai Khal and Buriganga river covering Shakhari Bazaar, Tanti Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Lakhsmi Bazaar, Bangla Bazaar, Kamar Nagar, Sutar Nagar, Goala Nagar, etc. Each mohalla belonged to separate communities depending on their craft and trade. The influences of the Mughal vocabulary in the planning of the spaces are literally evident in the use of Persian names to identify different spaces..
Last night while watching The Handmaid's Tale, I was struck (blown away, actually) by the cinematographic image of June walking up the spiral staircase at the Waterford home in blue tones--the only contrast being the lamp at the top of the stairs, and June's handmaid dress and white cap. So I tried to capture it on pause, but was unable to pause without the pause indicators obstructing the screen image. This was the next best thing I could manage (hence the movement blur of June walking up the stairs). It was so evocative, I just had to try to capture it!
which they never are at all. Throttle it, denaturalize it, take it away, and human existence would be reduced to the prosaic, laborious, boresome, imbecile level of life in an anthill :-)

Beyond the edge of the world there’s a space where emptiness and substance neatly overlap, where past and future form a continuous, endless loop.
And, hovering about, there are signs no one has ever read, chords no one has ever heard.

Take me out to sea
Away from you and me
Let me float
Lead me out to sea
Let me go
Let me rise towards the sky
Let me take in this light
Let the shore disappear from sight
I'm caught in your undertow....

Two lemurs high in a tree in an embrace.
Verreaux's sifaka (Propithecus verreauxi), or the white sifaka, is a medium-sized primate in one of the lemur families, the Indriidae. It lives in Madagascar and can be found in a variety of habitats from rainforest to western Madagascar dry deciduous forests and dry and spiny forests.
Its fur is thick and silky and generally white with brown on the sides, top of the head, and on the arms. Like all sifakas, it has a long tail that it uses as a balance when leaping from tree to tree. However, its body is so highly adapted to an arboreal existence, on the ground its only means of locomotion is hopping. The species lives in small troops which forage for food.
There are four subspecies of this lemur are described.
Many things are unknown about Verreaux's sifaka, their lifespan in the wild has not been approximated, but in captivity, they generally live to up to 18 years old.
L'existence est un éternel ballet d'allées et venues.
En somme, exister, c'est transgresser les frontières, fussent-elles aussi anecdotiques que celle d'une porte.
Et encore, certaines portes sont loin d'être anecdotiques.
Et très heureuse année 2024 !
i cant see
i cant leave
your voice still exist
i cant feel it

A Middlebie Church has been in existence at, or near, the site of the present Middlebie Church (rebuilt 1929), since 1609, when the parish churches of Pennersaughs, Carruthers and Middlebie were amalgamated. There is no trace of an earlier church. Parish church by J M Bowie, 1929. Blocky late Gothic cruciform kirk, built of snecked local rubble. In the graveyard, a fair number of 18th century stones carved with heraldry and reminders of death.

During the early days of motoring there was little or no provision for roadside assistance if your vehicle broke down or you became lost. In order to fill this void, the RAC (Royal Automobile Club) was founded in 1897 followed by the AA (Automobile Association) in 1905. Both organizations are still in existence and although they have changed considerably, both still provide recovery and assistance to stranded motorists.
As things developed both organizations provided roadside call boxes which originally were used as shelters for their road patrols and became known as sentry boxes. Motorists could summon help and a traveller could find a light, maps, fire extinguisher, and many other items whenever they were needed. The first AA box was installed at Ashstead, Surrey in 1911.
As time moved on, the manufacture of call boxes ceased in 1967. In the 1970’s they were phased out as mobile technology and cellular devices made them unnecessary. By 2002, the Automobile Association had shut down its network and now only a handful of boxes remain. They have no practical use and are merely roadside historical decoration.
This particular box, located at Devils Bridge 10 miles east of Aberystwyth in mid Wales, is a grade 2 listed building but I am not sure who is responsible for its upkeep.

A black and white photo of Prospect Harbor on the Schoodic Peninsula in Maine. This small village has been a busy fishing harbor since the mid-1800's. It was a cool, damp morning here and the monotone image really helps to capture the mood.
Photographed with a Holga 120N plastic toy camera using Ilford HP5 Plus 400 black and white film. The film was developed and scanned by @dsmfilmlab in Des Moines, Iowa.
For years we human and wild life exist on the same land and fighting for nature resources. Despite all kind of agricultural prevention technique the wild life just wouldn’t step down for their very existence sake. It is intriguing to see how the two kinds exist in the same place for the same purpose.
多年來我們人類和生物共存在同一塊土地也同時為了自然資源而競爭。即使有各種農業防護措施生物們為了生存從來不低頭。現今能夠觀察這兩種群體在同一個地方為了同一個目標總是讓人感到驚奇。
her dream was light,
its existence so sheer,
like flowers fall,
their beauty so fleeting.
