All dressed up and no place to go....
Thought I was having a night on the town, but due to bad planning and miscommunication it was not to be...
I went to this location with chewyuk with not much expectation. Coastal sunrise locations are difficult along the south wales coast during summer and early fall. The tide was high at sunrise, and the sunrise just wasn't at the right spot.
Soon after the sunrise, the light became quite warm and enchanting towards the islands in the Bristol channel. At this point the tide was beginning to go out as well. I decided to go with a long exposure to capture the fast moving clouds. But the result was a bit surprising. I am so pleased with what I got here. This just goes to show you that sometimes even a dullish moment can turn into something magical...

Theatrication is formed of young performers from Derbyshire aged between 18-24 and a considerably older director. Expectation is their debut production. Mixing dance, physical theatre and drama, 'expectation' reflects on the issues and themes affecting young people as they mature and become part of a society that is often confusing, demanding and difficult to navigate. "The company members of Theatrication delivered a tour de force ensemble performance in their inaugural devised show 'Expectation'. Each performance was fully crafted and woven into a highly engaging synergous whole..." Clare Limb: Déda. The production is a recipient of an unltd* award. PHYSICAL THEATRE
Heard there would be National Guard troops deployed downtown but honestly was a bit disconcerting to see these guys in riot gear with weapons. Guess the authorities have tried to prepare for everything and anything, but still.....
Buffalo Springfield (was thinking CSN&Y - Sorry!) song came to mind - "For What it's Worth"
There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I've got to beware
Think it's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
There's battle lines being drawn again
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong again
Young people speaking their minds once again
So much resistance from behind
Think it's time we stop
Hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Never having experienced anything like this the whole thing was more than a litle bit weird.

Day 334, Nov. 30: A season of expectation begins. I try to be still, allow the quiet to sink in, revel to sing in minor keys.
Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode
Robin Rhode imagines Austrian composer Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung (Expectation) in Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode. In partnership with Performa15. Composed in 1909, Erwartung takes the unusual form of a one-act monodrama for a solo soprano, accompanied by a large orchestra. For Rhode, this atonal opera about love, loss, and lamentation, recalled the many hardships experienced by women in South Africa during and after the fall of Apartheid. Originally set in the moonlit, wilderness of the forest, Rhodeâs reproduction of Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhode interprets Times Square itself to be a contemporary forest filled with light emanating from the electronic billboards instead of the moon. The performance takes place in a huge aria with just one soprano and non-speaking performer carrying out the opera, with the sights and sounds of Times Square acting as a Greek Chorus in the background.
