È vegetariana o vegana solo una percentuale bassa della popolazione italiana (circa l’8%), ma l’ultimo rapporto dell’IPCC (Intergovernamental Panel on Climate Change) è molto chiaro nel sollecitare la popolazione mondiale “a favore di diete che implicano un minor uso di risorse.” Secondo il rapporto, un deciso cambiamento delle nostre diete in senso vegetariano potrebbe liberare milioni di chilometri quadrati dallo sfruttamento intensivo, riducendo le emissioni di CO2 fino a sei miliardi di tonnellate l’anno rispetto ai livelli attuali.

Ma chi sceglie di diventare vegetariano o vegano non lo fa per un astratto amore verso l’ambiente o per il futuro dell’umanità, quanto piuttosto per la raggiunta consapevolezza della simile sensibilità delle altre specie con la nostra, e del pari diritto alla vita. E’ del 1975 il saggio del filosofo Peter Singer “Liberazione animale”, un testo fondamentale dell’animalismo e dell’anti-specismo.

Ho fotografato alcuni miei amici vegetariani o vegani.

  

Only a low percentage of the Italian population is vegetarian or vegan (about 8%), but the latest report by the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) is very clear in urging the world population" in favor of diets that involve less use of resources. " According to the report, a decisive change in our diets in the vegetarian sense could free millions of square kilometers from intensive exploitation, reducing CO2 emissions by up to six billion tons per year compared to current levels.

But those who choose to become vegetarian or vegan do not do so for an abstract love for the environment or for the future of humanity, but rather for the awareness of the similar sensitivity of the other species to ours, and of the equal right to life. 1975 was the essay by the philosopher Peter Singer "Animal Liberation", a fundamental text of animalism and anti-speciesism.

I photographed some of my vegetarian or vegan friends.

Pour ce tout premier spot ferroviaire de l'année 2023, je vous emmène pas dans les coins des bouches du Rhône que j'ai l'habitude d'exploiter mais encore plus loin, puisque je me suis rendu avec un acolyte, dans le département des Alpes-Maritimes afin de découvrir les célèbres Chemins de Fer de Provence, Train des Pignes où plus communément appelés "CP".

 

La compagnie des CP possède une ligne à voie métrique longue de 150km, reliant la petite ville de Digne-les-Bains à Nice mais suite à un effondrement du Tunnel de Moriez en 2019, la section Saint André les Alpes - Dignes n'est plus desservie par le train mais par autocars. La section St André les Alpes - Nice, est quant à elle, desservie par des touts petits autorails X300 datant des années 70 et d'autres modèles.

 

Parlons à présent de la photo : Quelques dizaine de minutes après nôtre arrivée dans la petite gare de Lingostière situé dans les hauteurs de Nice, le superbe Autorail X301 avec sa belle robe du CP, qui est d'ailleurs le doyen de la toute petite série des X300, était immortalisé en passant le PN de la Gare, en assurant le Train N°120 reliant Colomars à Nice CP, son terminus, sous une superbe lumière du sud.

 

Sur fond de toile, nous pouvons apercevoir le Baou de la Gaude, qui domine la commune de Saint Jeannet.

Patrice Lumumba (1925–1961)

 

Patrice Émery Lumumba was born on July 2, 1925, in Onalua, Katakokola, in the Belgian Congo, into a Tetela family. Growing up in a rural community, he developed a strong sense of justice and a deep awareness of the injustices of Belgian colonialism. He attended Catholic missionary schools, but his curiosity and intelligence led him to become deeply interested in politics and the condition of his people.

 

Before independence, Lumumba worked as a clerk, but actively participated in trade unions and nationalist movements, denouncing exploitation and discrimination. His eloquence, charisma, and ability to mobilize the masses soon made him the most visible leader of the Congolese independence movement.

 

In 1960, at the age of 34, Lumumba became the first Prime Minister of independent Congo, leading a country freshly liberated from Belgian colonial rule. His vision was clear: to build a sovereign, united state, free from foreign interference and based on social justice and equality. Lumumba openly denounced the interventions of Western powers, particularly Belgium, and opposed neocolonialism that sought to control Congo’s resources.

 

However, his government was short-lived. After only a few months, due to internal and international pressures, Lumumba was overthrown in a coup orchestrated by pro-Western elements and Belgian and U.S. intelligence services. He was captured, tortured, and ultimately assassinated on January 17, 1961, in Katanga. His body was brutally dissolved in acid by his killers, a grim symbol of the cruelty of powers that feared his message of freedom and independence.

 

Lumumba is remembered as a martyr of African freedom, a symbol of courage, dignity, and resistance against colonialism and neocolonialism. His legacy continues to inspire movements for social justice and national sovereignty across Africa and the world.

I publish this series of figures to awaken consciences and to remember how many people died defending truth, justice, and the rights of the oppressed. I want to highlight the injustices that still exist and show young people that the only thing we can do is to resist, because evil still rules and continues to target those who try to make a difference. This series is an invitation to remember, reflect, and never accept injustice.

The Hoh Rainforest is located on the Olympic Peninsula in western Washington state, USA. It is one of the largest temperate rainforests in the U.S.[1] Within Olympic National Park, the forest is protected from commercial exploitation. This includes 24 miles (39 km) of low elevation forest 394 to 2,493 feet (120 to 760 m) along the Hoh River. The Hoh River valley was formed thousands of years ago by glaciers. Between the park boundary and the Pacific Ocean, 48 km (30 mi) of river, much of the forest has been logged within the last century, although many pockets of forest remain.

Les populations gallo-romaines avaient exploité des thermes à cet endroit de la vallée de l’Ariège. Toutefois, la disparition d’une majorité de vestiges nous oblige à une grande prudence. Il existe pourtant des documents écrits qui attestent d’une fréquentation des lieux à des fins thérapeutiques au XVème siècle ..... Ce site classé ne peut plus servir au développement thermal de la station. Il est situé en zone rouge du Plan de prévention des risques, c’est à dire en zone inondable, c’est à dire qu’il n’est plus aux normes.

.

A la sortie d’un village se trouvait un vieux mur mystérieux. Quand quelqu’un grimpait dessus pour regarder de l’autre côté, il souriait et sautait de l’autre côté pour ne plus jamais revenir. Tout le monde était curieux de savoir ce qui se passait de l’autre côté du vieux mur. Après tout, dans le village il y avait tout ce qu’il fallait pour mener une vie normale et paisible.

  

Les villageois décidèrent d’attacher les pieds de celui qui regarderait par-dessus le vieux mur. Ainsi quand il regarda, enchanté de ce qu’il vit de l’autre côté, il sourit. Quand il s’apprêtait à sauter, ils le tirèrent en arrière et l’empêchèrent de le faire.

  

Remplis de curiosité ceux qui avaient accompli l’exploit de l’empêcher de sauter, étaient curieux et voulurent savoir ce qui attirait les hommes derrière le mur, mais ils furent très déçus, leur voisin avait perdu la parole.

A la salida de un pueblo de la India, había un viejo muro misterioso. Cuando alguien lo escaladaba para mirar del otro lado, sonreía luego saltaba y se iba para nunca más volver. Los lugareños estaban curiosos por saber qué había del otro lado de aquella pared, pues en aquel pueblo había lo necesario para vivir una vida normal y apacible.

  

Decidieron los lugareños atar los pies del que subiría a ver lo que pasaba. Así lo hicieron y cuando aquél escaladó el muro y contempló del otro lado, sonrió, pero cuando se disponía a saltar, los lugareños tiraron de las cuerdas y le impidieron echarse del otro lado.

  

Estaban llenos de curiosidad por saber qué ocurría del otro lado y por qué todos deseaban saltar e irse, por eso lo asaltaron con preguntas, pero su decepción fue grandísima, pues el pobre parroquiano no pudo decirles nada, había perdido el uso de la palabra.

Fourteenth picture of the series Delta Dreams.

 

(For this time in vertical, reverse the roles on the boats.

The sun was out and you can be appreciated just to the right of the boat in the background, all those pixels you see are hundreds of flamingos feeding in these lands so good for them.

From my position I listened to them perfectly, but due to fog were almost imperceptible)

 

My dreamed sunrise in the Delta of the river Ebro -Tarragona-.

 

The previous day, a local man explained to me a perfect location for enjoy the photograph of this beautiful land.

 

I consulted the parameters that night and everything was correct to travel there.

 

The truth is that I was impressed to get to that place, I put on my waders running to get me asap and do not lose the time.

 

The sun had not yet risen, the water reached my waist, good temperature, soft wind, a lot of clouds and fog surrounding the horizon, made the conditions were the best.

 

Many photos I've seen of this place is that in photoshop blur the horizon line with the clone tool, but there was fog and with long exposure, completely erased.

 

It seemed that I was doing a photo shoot in the same heaven.

 

I think for many more times to return to this place, I can never find anything so perfect.

 

This is the photo shoot I most enjoyed in recent years, have a set of at least seven impressive images.

 

On the technical side, say that I only used a neutral gradient three steps filter.

 

I hope you like it. Have a nice Friday. :)

The earth we abuse and the living things we kill will, in the end, take their revenge; for in exploiting their presence we are diminishing our future.

Curzon Street Tunnel is on the Digbeth Branch Canal, completed in 1799.

 

The Grade II listed structure is 161 yards long and carries the Birmingham to London railway across the canal. The older brick tunnel was constructed at the same time as Curzon Street station in 1838 and lengthened later when the line was extended into New Street station, opened in 1854.

Night shot taken in the Ara River, passing through the valley of Bujaruelo. -Aragonese Pyrenees-.

 

After photographing fall colors in this magnificent valley throughout the afternoon, we proceeded to the back in the car on the dirt road.

 

It had fallen all night and was already dark, but the full moon allowed me through a very long exposure to capture the movement of water flowing through this beautiful river.

 

To reach this abstract touch picture in one unique Raw I up the ISO to 800 open to f8 and 30 seconds of exposure.

 

I hope you like it. Have a nice Thursday. :)

Climbing up from Aberglaslyn on an old miner's track through beautiful yellow and orange coloured autumn trees you eventually break out into the open of Cwm Bychan. And it is further up here that you are first met by the strange sight of "Transformer" style pylons leading up into the mountain. Apparently they date back to the start of the twentieth century and were built to exploit the workings of the old copper mine that was started in the early 18th century.

 

This shot shows the remains of the top station, the whole thing being very similar to a modern ski lift, but this one for carrying heavy copper ore and rock.

 

It's amazing what you discover in them thar hills of Snowdonia. In fact, it amazes me at the endeavour of mankind that they could find something like copper in such a remote and high place and then spend all that human effort carrying thousands of tons of raw rock down by hand for processing a couple of hundred years before they even built this ropeway. I just don't know what today's youth would even make of it. Far too much trouble. Far too much trouble to even learn about it!

Château d'Azay-le-Rideau (37-Indre et Loire)

Evolution architecturale progressive du XVIème siècle (Francois Premier) au XIXème siècle

 

Ma petite série sur le Val de Loire dégénère de plus en plus en catalogue "cartepostalesque", à peine digne des brochures de l'Office du Tourisme tourangeau...

Vous avez heureusement échappé aux couchers de soleil touristiques gluants (j'aurais pu, mais j'ai su raisonnablement me retenir avant de commettre l'irréparable !)

Pourtant, il m'était impossible de ne pas poster ici au moins une photo de mon château de la Loire préféré, petit bijou architectural posé au centre de son écrin aquatique, et enfin débarrassé de ses échafaudages disgracieux depuis 2017.

Et ceci même si cet angle de vue peu original a sans doute déjà été exploité plusieurs millions (milliards ?) de fois sur les cinquante dernières années !

Mais, tant pis, j'assume !

"Bis repetita placent" affirmait déjà Horace, qui ne subissait pourtant pas le harcèlement des chatons miaulant sur les réseaux sociaux, sinon il aurait vite rectifié sa pensée !

🇫🇷 L'Argentiera est le nom d'un hameau situé sur le littoral de la commune de Sassari au nord-ouest de la Sardaigne

.La mine était exploitée par les Romains et les Phéniciens.

L'exploitation est rouverte au XIXe siècle par une société minière belge

.Le site connaît une période florissante vers 1940 puis décline après la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

La mine est fermée en 1963.

On peut y voir les vestiges de la laverie avec ses charpentes de bois et les fours destinés à la fonte des minerais formant un des plus intéressants exemples d'archéologie industrielle en Sardaigne. La restauration a commencé .

🇬🇧 L'Argentiera is the name of a hamlet on the coast of the municipality of Sassari in north-west Sardinia.

The mine was exploited by the Romans and Phoenicians.

It was reopened in the 19th century by a Belgian mining company.

The site enjoyed a flourishing period around 1940, before declining after the Second World War.

The mine closed in 1963.

The remains of the washing plant with its wooden frameworks and the furnaces used to smelt the ore can still be seen, making it one of the most interesting examples of industrial archaeology in Sardinia. Restoration work has begun.

 

🇮🇹 L'Argentiera è il nome di una frazione della costa del comune di Sassari, nella Sardegna nord-occidentale.

La miniera fu sfruttata dai Romani e dai Fenici.

Fu riaperta nel XIX secolo da una società mineraria belga.

Il sito conobbe un periodo di fioritura intorno al 1940, per poi declinare dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale.

La miniera chiuse nel 1963.

Sono ancora visibili i resti dell'impianto di lavaggio con le sue strutture in legno e i forni utilizzati per la fusione del minerale, che ne fanno uno degli esempi più interessanti di archeologia industriale in Sardegna. Sono iniziati i lavori di restauro.

 

🇩🇪 L'Argentiera ist der Name eines Weilers an der Küste der Gemeinde Sassari im Nordwesten Sardiniens.

Die Mine wurde von den Römern und Phöniziern betrieben.

Jahrhundert von einer belgischen Bergwerksgesellschaft wiedereröffnet.

.Die Anlage erlebte um 1940 eine Blütezeit und ging nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg zurück.

Die Mine wurde 1963 geschlossen.

Die Überreste der Wäscherei mit ihren Holzbalken und den Öfen zum Schmelzen der Erze, die eines der interessantesten Beispiele für Industriearchäologie auf Sardinien darstellen, sind noch zu sehen. Die Restaurierung hat begonnen.

 

🇪🇸 L'Argentiera es el nombre de una aldea situada en la costa del municipio de Sassari, en el noroeste de Cerdeña.

El yacimiento conoció un periodo de florecimiento hacia 1940, antes de decaer tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

La mina cerró en 1963.

Los restos de la planta de lavado, con sus armazones de madera, y los hornos utilizados para fundir el mineral aún pueden verse, lo que la convierte en uno de los ejemplos más interesantes de arqueología industrial de Cerdeña. Se han iniciado trabajos de restauración.

 

Petit (et modeste) exploit hier soir : La voûte de la Voie Lactée dans un magnifique paysage malgré un ciel voilé et une pollution lumineuse plus qu'intense.

Agréable instants hors du temps, caressé par une petite brise douillette

A small (and modest) feat last night: The Milky Way bow in a magnificent landscape despite a veiled sky and intense light pollution.

A pleasant moment out of time, swept by a gentle breeze.

I found this flower growing along the road today and brought it home to exploit, and photograph where I could control the light.

 

Lighting: Lit with a Yongnuo manual flash in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box positioned at camera left and just out of the frame. The flash and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1900 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/

La Ribera Salada al seu pas pel Pont de la Ginebrosa, al oest del Solsonès.

 

==================================

 

The Ribera Salada river seen from the old stone bridge at La Ginebrosa, in central Catalonia. The unusual river name (translated more or less like "salted bank" or "salted shore", although I presume a less literal would be "salted river") is explained because in one of it's sources the water has a high salt content, even exploited to this day).

Another of the few shots I stole at the studio, during the short visit I paid to Gigi this year. Due to various commitments that had been keeping my mind busy during my stay in Europe, not lastly also an elbow inflammation that was giving me problems in handling my cameras, I did not have plan to shot this time. However, resisting the call of the photographic wild for a concert and event photographer, which is used to exploit any situation, was impossible to ignore. Particularly with such a beautiful muse.

  

Another of the places that most impressed me of the Cantabria Coast.

  

Photographing the north coast, it becomes a difficult task for all the variables to fit, coincidence of sunrise-sunset with high-low tides depending on each place, having good lights and whenever you can look for less-seen frames, it complicates a lot things.

  

On the technical side, say that I used the combination of a ND four steps filter and a soft gradient ND three steps filter.

  

I hope you like it. Have a nice Sunday. :)

Ainsa-Sobrarbe. Les armes de la ville sur la façade de l'hôtel de ville.

La légende raconte qu’à l’aube de la reconquête, les troupes chrétiennes de Garcí Ximénez vainquirent l’armée musulmane grâce à l’apparition d’une croix de feu sur le chêne vert qui leur donna la force de vaincre leurs ennemis. Tous les deux ans, les habitants d’Ainsa commémorent cet exploit sous forme d’une représentation populaire, qui porte le nom de « La Morisma » (scène de lutte entre Maures et Chrétiens). (extrait de ordesasobrarbe.com/fr/espacios/ainsa/ )

Le gisement d’étain de la région d’Abbaretz a fait l’objet d’exploitations très anciennes, dès l’époque gallo-romaine. Mais c’est au début du 20ème siècle que d’importants travaux de recherche ont débuté par la société nantaise des Minerais de l’Ouest (SNMO). L’exploitation principale a été réalisée à ciel ouvert sur le site du Bois Vert à l’ouest du bourg d’Abbaretz à partir de 1952. La mine à ciel ouvert a atteint des profondeurs allant de 40 à 70 m. Lors de l’exploitation, les matériaux extraits à la pelle mécanique étaient transportés par bandes transporteuses soit au nord de la route départementale directement lorsqu’il s’agit de roche de découverte ou de minerai trop pauvre en étai, soit dans l’usine de traitement du minerai. Dans l’usine, le minerai était concassé et broyé pour récupérer l’étain. Une fois ce dernier récupéré, les résidus de traitement étaient envoyés dans des grandes aires de décantation au nord de la route départementale. Cette activité a généré les terrils du Bois Vert visibles aujourd’hui : le terril conique composé de stériles d’exploitation (matériaux plus ou moins grossiers, moins chargés en métaux) et les terrils tabulaires en forme de plateaux composés de résidus de traitement (matériaux plus fins de type sable, plus chargés en métaux). L’étude menée récemment par le BRGM conclut à une concentration relativement importante en métaux dans les sols (arsenic notamment) présente dans les résidus des anciennes activités de traitement du minerai. Cette zone ayant donné lieu à une exploitation minière dans le passé contient naturellement des teneurs en métaux plus élevées que la moyenne de terres initialement chargées en métaux. Ce rapport indique qu’en dehors d’une promenade le long du chemin de randonnée et sur la montée au belvédère du terril conique, les autres usages ne sont pas compatibles avec le site.

 

The tin deposit in the Abbaretz region has been exploited for a very long time, since the Gallo-Roman period. But it was at the beginning of the 20th century that important research work began by the Nantes company of West Minerals (SNMO). The main mining was carried out in the open pit at the Bois Vert site to the west of the village of Abbaretz from 1952. The open pit mine reached depths ranging from 40 to 70 m. During operation, the materials extracted with a mechanical shovel were transported by conveyor belts either to the north of the departmental road directly in the case of discovery rock or ore too poor in prop, or to the plant of ore processing. At the plant, the ore was crushed and ground to recover the tin. Once the latter was recovered, the treatment residues were sent to large settling areas north of the departmental road. This activity generated the Bois Vert slag heaps visible today: the conical slag heap made up of waste rock (more or less coarse materials, less loaded with metals) and the tabular slag heaps in the form of trays made up of treatment residues ( finer sand type, more loaded with metals). The recent study carried out by BRGM concludes that there is a relatively high concentration of metals in the soils (arsenic in particular) present in the residues of former ore processing activities. This area, which has been used for mining in the past, naturally contains higher metal contents than the average for soil initially loaded with metals. This report indicates that apart from a walk along the hiking trail and on the climb to the conical slag heap lookout, other uses are not compatible with the site.

Il est très probable que ces souterrains furent d’abord exploités comme carrière pour extraire la “terre à foulon“. Au Moyen Âge, la spécialité de Provins était le drap de laine, de très haute qualité et dont la renommée dépassait les frontières. On utilisait donc cette terre très particulière, pour l’opération du foulage des draps (nettoyage et dégraissage de la laine).

 

Ensuite, ces cavités ont été utilisées comme refuges, entrepôts durant les Foires de Champagne ou encore lieux de réunions cultuelles, et assurément par des francs-maçons que de nombreuses anciennes écritures sur les parois attestent.

Originally a "commissioned" avatar I made last year.

He was supposed to look edgy, powerful, successful . . . etc.

 

Although the client said it was great and took and posted a few "test shots", . . . his priorities then changed and he decided he didn't want it after all.

C'est la vie.

 

I "reserved" it for a long time . . . but I guess now it is mine to use.

...Joe Simpson au Siula Grande - Cordillère Huayhuash - Pérou.

 

Joe Simpson (né le 13 août 1960) est un écrivain et alpiniste anglais connu principalement pour son terrible accident lors de la descente du Siula Grande (6 334 m) avec Simon Yates en 1985.

 

"Lors de la descente d'un versant très dangereux en période hivernale, Joe est victime d'une première chute qui lui brise la jambe droite. Son ami décide alors de le descendre à la corde petit à petit dans des conditions climatiques extrêmes. Malheureusement, Joe se retrouve suspendu dans le vide n'ayant pu avertir son ami de l'arrivée d'une énorme coulée. Après une heure et demie d'attente par -25°C Simon prend la terrible décision de couper la corde le reliant à Joe pour avoir une chance de sauver sa propre vie. Joe Simpson chute de plusieurs dizaines de mètres dans une crevasse.

 

Il réussit ensuite l'exploit de ressortir de la crevasse, de finir la descente du versant et de traverser un glacier pour rejoindre le campement avec la jambe cassée, sans eau et par des températures extrêmes. Ce combat pour la survie dure quatre jours. Joe Simpson perd un tiers de son poids.

 

Il a écrit un livre adapté par la suite au cinéma, La Mort suspendue, réalisé par Kevin Macdonald en 2003. Cette adaptation est en fait dédiée à son ami Simon Yates pour répondre aux critiques des alpinistes que Simon avait reçues après avoir coupé la corde qui le séparait de Joe durant la descente du Siula Grande. Joe a déclaré qu'il aurait fait exactement la même chose si les rôles avaient été inversés. Après deux ans de rééducation en hôpital et six opérations, Joe profite à nouveau de sa passion, l'alpinisme.

 

Il est également l'auteur de grandes premières et voies prestigieuses. "
