How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How a flower looks
Depends very much on where it appears.
Will you go near a flower
Blooming on a cow dung’s heap?
Will you tame a jungle
To get near a wild bloom?

That there, that's not me / I go where I please
I walk through walls / I float down the Liffey
I'm not here, this isn't happening
I'm not here, I'm not here
In a little while, I'll be gone / The moment's already passed
Yeah it's gone...
And I'm not here, this isn't happening
I'm not here, I'm not here.

When we post pictures to Flickr, we would like to share them with our friends or to reach out to a bigger audience.
I guess it is reasonable to think most of the Flickrites wish to get more views and comments on their pictures.
But how can you get more views in the first place?
From my experience so far (8 months on Flickr), I would say there are at least a few things that have impact on the number of views.
If you like to have say 200+ views on the picture (in the first few days for example), then:
- do color pictures instead of B&W (B&W demands more skills and addressed to specifc groups of audience only)
- post pictures with life subject (e.g. people, animals, flowers). These subjects appeal to most of the people.
- post self-portrait (I have seen a girl self portarit having 100,000 views while an excellently done and supreme landscape picture with 400 views only)
- post pictures without title or description or at least short title or description (there are so many explored untitled pictures)
Flickr is an excellent place with so many talented photographers. At the same time you can see some interesting phenomenon.
This is a B&W picture of a dead wood with long description and it is done by a beginner. So I would expect .......
Thank you for your visits and comments!
How many times has this door knob turned inside this small church?
How many hands? Tiny hands of young children, weathered hands of old farmers, smooth hands of young women, gnarled hands of elderly women who hand washed tons of laundry.
How many?
In ballroom dancing, the Gentleman is responsible for recognizing the music, choosing the most appropriate ballroom dance to best characterize the music, and Expertly Leading The Lady to Dance. In ballroom dancing, the Lady is responsible for recognizing the music, recognizing the appropriate dance to best characterize the music, and Following The Gentleman’s Expert Lead. But then Life is not always like a ballroom dance — where the Dance is all about ‘Lead & Follow.’
So sometimes the Gentleman must Dance Solo. 😌
Your very lovely lady is back home 778 miles away. Were your very lovely lady here on the Fabulous Las Vegas Strip, she would not have approved of your choice to attend the Katy Perry Show tonight at Resorts World. She would not have approved of the hip menu at FUHU. You two would have needed to dine at Brezza instead. Had your very lovely lady arrived on the Las Vegas Strip with her two adorable Westie Terriers in tow, your plans for the next three and a half days of your vacation would be drastically different! 😒 Surely three years of living through the Coronavirus Global Pandemic has taught you well how to ‘Love & Live Las Vegas’ Solo Style.
So let’s get started — Solo Style! 😏

London has earned a reputation as being a rainy city, and for that reason, the best time to visit is in May-June or September.
While the city is cold and dark in winters, it still offers its off-season travelers a good time, not to mention a more authentic
London experience sans the tourists. April to September is peak tourist time as the weather is sunny and inviting, though it brings no relief from occasional rains.
Distances in London are large and daunting, and travelers can use a combination of efficient and clean London Tubes, London Buses, Taxis and Local trains to travel across the city without hiring a car. Be cautioned; even if you plan to hire a car, driving in London traffic is not for the weak hearted.

when I create photos i treat them like paintings, where I always draw a sketch first and then compose the photograph depending on the sketch idea. Of course sometimes the idea changes slightly from sketch to final photograph, but most of the time it stays pretty close to the original idea.
Tarn Hows is an area of the Lake District National Park, containing a picturesque tarn, approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) northeast of Coniston and about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northwest of Hawkshead. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the area with over half a million visitors per year in the 1970s and is managed by the National Trust.
The Tarn Hows area originally contained three much smaller tarns, Low Tarn, Middle Tarn and High Tarn.
Tarn Hows was designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1965.
The National Trust have made a number of more recent changes to the area including moving the car parks to a less obtrusive place in the 1960s and general footpath and road improvements to minimize the damage caused by the visitors. In May 2008 a building designed to harmonise with the landscape was opened, providing toilets and an information display under a sedum green roof.

I counted twenty-one, Isolino thought there were at least twenty. How
many do you see? I was amazed at this large Canada Goose family. I
think they adopted some, because I can't imagine them having twenty
eggs! There was another couple trailing this one, and I think they
knew some of their babies must have gotten into this larger group.
May you have as huge a heart for the children around you. May you
give out such love and care, that they will feel like they are just
part of the family. God bless you all.

Anybody know how to repair a 70-200mm f/2.8 L?
I picked up my Shootsac and out it tumbled, crashing to the floor. I had just applied my mascara, so crying wasn't an option. Let's just say I'm VERY unhappy. The glass didn't break, but the element inside sure did. Seriously - AS I'M LEAVING FOR THE WEDDING this happens. Unreal. I used the 24-70mm f/2.8 L for the whole shebang and so far it looks like I made it work. It was a lovely wedding and I can't wait to truly dive into all the photos!
Better sky today than at Langdale yesterday, Tarn Hows ,the National Trust tarn that was owned by Beatrix Potter and given to the Trust. At one time it was three smaller tarns . Good access to and from and around the tarn make it very popular. It was packed with people today until about seven pm.

How refreshing
an empty space
can be.
Unclutter, baby.
Make space for fresh air.
At the historic area of
Al Balad, my favourite spot in Jeddah.
Streets coloured and scented with herbs,
All kinds of dates, fruits and nuts.
People from India to Nigeria,
Saudi to Jordan,
Coexisting in this beehive of cultures.
Always wanted to photograph the people of this area but felt somehow restricted to do in the open.
Yesterday, another dream came true. We joined a local photography group & knocked ourselves out!
Life,
loving you
even more
day by day.
Thank you @nahdiomar for inviting us.

Although it assumes you already have a few bits to play with ;)
1. Is an Opteka 0.45x wide angle converter for a Fuji S5500 (and probably many other big zoom compacts). The wide front element unscrews to leave you with a single positive element which can be used as a macro adaptor (for which it's crap, but that's by the by). The threaded retaining ring on this can be undone to give you a naked glass element about 40mm across.
2 and 3. Meyer-Optik Gorlitz lenses have a conical adaptor to M42 thread that can be unscrewed (and replaced with a similar attachment to use them with other mounts like Exakta or Praktica B bayonets).
4. The single glass element sits loosely inside the female M42 front end of the BPM bellows unit.
5. The Meyer cone screws into the M42 BPM piece, and holds the glass element in lace while acting as a lenshood.
6. It all gets attached to the front of the bellows.
7. The bellows attached to the 30D (via another adaptor, this time M42-Canon EF). Bellows is racked out to about 3 or 4", which is somewhere near the focal length of the glass element.
Now all you do is go out and point it at things, focus with the bellows rack, and enjoy minimalist, lo-fi, ultra-soft and distorted photography!
. . . Here is how I set up the previous post of frozen bubbles: 1) You need a non-windy spot. I went inside the garage and used my wife's shiny car roof, since we had a raging blizzard outdoors. Besides, my truck is way too dirty for this! 2) Extra dish soap in the bubble blower helps, a few drops if it's a small container. 3) The light here is a small LCD work light about 2x3 inches, available at any Home Depot or Lowes store. Thanks to Mike Moats Macro Workshop for that tip! 4) Try to wave the wand over where you want the bubbles, your "hot breath" will make them pop if you blow into the wand. Then go ahead and compose the shot before the bubbles pop! Good Luck!!
Have a great week Facebook and Flickr friends!
