urban decay the play ground for photographers
me and a friend found this abandoned compound and took about two days to go through it, still have not explored it all but most of it i did .
i found an old mosque there this is one of many i took in that mosque
something about urban decay that draws most photographers (well me at least) just love the feel of it all.
i did a cross processing on this image to give it that glow
My 2009 Mazda MX-5 posing with Pre-production Concorde 102
Concorde F-WTSA (102) first flew on 10 January 1973 from Toulouse. It was the fourth Concorde and the first to have the dimensions and the shape of the future production aircraft. It was the first to fly to the United States (on 20 September 1973 to Dallas, Texas). It made 314 flights (656 hours), of which 189 supersonic and was then retired to Orly Airport in Paris on 20 May 1976, where it is on display to the public.

Another nice snowy picture of my friend Yolanda, wearing her beautiful blue satin dress and thick winter coat.
I talk to him when I'm lonesome like; and I'm sure he understands. When he looks at me so attentively, and gently licks my hands; then he rubs his nose on my tailored clothes, but I never say naught thereat. For the good Lord knows I can buy more clothes, but never a friend like that.

This is a portrait of my friend Anil shot in Paris a few weeks ago.
Anil is a true friend and a man of virtue.
We share the same passion for Punjabi music and singers, like Jagjit Singh or Shujaat Husain Khan among many.
When we meet in Paris everything vanishes and we spend endless Indian hours which have a touch of his homeland, Amritsar.

I really like the work of Russian artist Arkhip Kuindzhi (1842-1910)
ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%B...
The following lines about Kuindzhi belong to N.K.Roerich: “Powerful Kuindzhi was not only a great artist, but was also a great Teacher of life. His private life was unusual, secluded, and only his closest disciples knew the depth of his soul. At precisely noon he would ascend to the roof of his house, and as the noon fortress cannon rattled, thousands of birds would gather around him. He fed them from his hands, these countless friends of his: pigeons, sparrows, crows, jackdaws, swallows. It seemed that all the birds of the capital flew to him and covered his shoulders, arms and head. He used to say to me: “Come closer, I will tell them not to be afraid of you”. Unforgettable was the sight of this gray-haired and smiling man, covered with chirping birds; it will remain among the dearest memories ... One of the usual joys of Kuindzhi was to help the poor so that they did not know where this favor came from. Inimitable was his whole life... ...Behind Kuindzhi's coffin walked many strangers to the itinerant people who received help from him, which no one knew, and orphaned birds were circling above the house.”
…For dinner & cocktails! This was the first time I'd visited socially with my friend MEK while dressed! We had a great evening chatting about life, the universe & everything over vodka gimlets & a nice chicken dinner!
My ensemble for the evening consists of a black & white peasant top and black skinny jeans, both from venus.com, my black stretch belt with white buckle from newportnews.com, Hanes Alive Barely There pantyhose from onehanesplace.com and my black black basket weave peep toe wedge sandals from Rockport. I think this was a perfect outfit for a social visit with a friend!

Orlan's best friend Abe, son of our great friends.
These two are all their life as a twin brothers, even Onessa is saying Abe is her second brother, though now they are less often together since they study in the different cities.
Anyway to catch up a little bit Abe has moved by us for few days over the Christmas.
It was great fun to have him around.
My very first post this year, dedicated to a very dear friend.
Golden Oriole
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Golden Oriole or European (or Eurasian) Golden Oriole Oriolus oriolus is the only member of the oriole family of passerine birds breeding in northern hemisphere temperate regions. It is a summer migrant in Europe and western Asia and spends the winter season in the tropics.
Golden Oriole inhabit tall deciduous trees in woodland, orchards or parks and spend much of their time in tree canopies. They feed on insects and fruit. They build neat nests in tree forks and lay 3-6 eggs.
The male is striking in the typical oriole black and yellow plumage, but the female is a drabber green bird. Orioles are shy, and even the male is remarkably difficult to see in the dappled yellow and green leaves of the canopy.
In flight they look somewhat like a thrush, strong and direct with some shallow dips over longer distances.
Their call is a screech like a jay, but the song is a beautiful fluting weela-wee-ooo or or-iii-ole, unmistakable once heard. Listen to an oriole singing
The name "oriole" was first used in the 18th century and is an adaptation of the scientific Latin genus name, which is derived from the Classical Latin "aureolus" meaning golden. Various forms of "oriole" have existed in Roman languages since the 12th and 13th centuries. Albertus Magnus used the Latin form oriolus in about 1250 and erroneously stated that it was onomatopoeic because of the Golden Oriole's song.
I used the Winnie & Walter Winter Woodland and The Big, The Bold, and the Happy stamp sets, as well as The Big, the Bold, and the Extras Cut Files for the leaves. The lembellishments are from Studio Calico. For details, please see my blog at: redballooncards.blogspot.com/2015/06/friend.html
