Festa dei lavoratori
Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera.
La Festa dei lavoratori è una festività celebrata il 1º maggio di ogni anno che intende ricordare l'impegno del movimento sindacale ed i traguardi raggiunti in campo economico e sociale dai lavoratori. La festa del lavoro è riconosciuta in molte nazioni del mondo ma non in tutte.
Origini internazionali
Più precisamente, con essa si intende ricordare le battaglie operaie volte alla conquista di un diritto ben preciso: l'orario di lavoro quotidiano fissato in otto ore. Tali battaglie portarono alla promulgazione di una legge che fu approvata nel 1866 nell'Illinois (USA)[senza fonte]. La Prima Internazionale richiese poi che legislazioni simili fossero approvate anche in Europa.
L'origine della festa risale ad una manifestazione organizzata negli Stati Uniti dai Cavalieri del lavoro (Knights of Labor, associazione fondata nel 1869) a New York il 5 settembre 1882. Due anni dopo, nel 1884, in un'analoga manifestazione i Cavalieri del lavoro approvarono una risoluzione affinché l'evento avesse una cadenza annuale. Altre organizzazioni sindacali affiliate all' Internazionale dei lavoratori - vicine ai movimenti socialisti ed anarchici - suggerirono come data della festività il primo maggio.
Ma a far cadere definitivamente la scelta su questa data furono i gravi incidenti accaduti nei primi giorni di maggio del 1886 a Chicago (USA) e conosciuti come rivolta di Haymarket. Questi fatti ebbero il loro culmine il 4 maggio quando la polizia sparò sui manifestanti provocando numerose vittime.
L'allora presidente Grover Cleveland ritenne che la festa del primo maggio avrebbe potuto costituire un'opportunità per commemorare questo episodio. Successivamente, temendo che la commemorazione potesse risultare troppo a favore del nascente socialismo, stornò l'oggetto della festività sull'antica organizzazione dei Cavalieri del lavoro.
La data del primo maggio fu adottata in Canada nel 1894 sebbene il concetto di festa del lavoro sia in questo caso riferito a precedenti marce di lavoratori tenute a Toronto e Ottawa nel 1872.
In Europa la festività del primo maggio fu ufficializzata dai delegati socialisti della Seconda Internazionale riuniti a Parigi nel 1889 e ratificata in Italia due anni dopo.
La Festa dei Lavoratori in Italia
Concerto del primo maggio a Roma nel 2007. I presenti erano circa 700.000
In Italia la festività fu soppressa durante il ventennio fascista - che preferì festeggiare una autarchica Festa del lavoro italiano il 21 aprile in coincidenza con il Natale di Roma - ma fu ripristinata subito dopo la fine del conflitto mondiale, nel 1945.
Nel 1947 la ricorrenza venne funestata a Portella della Ginestra (PA) quando la banda di Salvatore Giuliano sparò su un corteo di circa duemila lavoratori in festa, uccidendone undici e ferendone una cinquantina.
I sindacati italiani CGIL, CISL e UIL organizzano annualmente a Roma un concerto per celebrare il primo maggio dall'anno 1991 (vedi Concerto del Primo Maggio a Roma a cui partecipano annualmente centinaia di migliaia di persone).

I've always been conflicted as to my feelings about Chinatowns, the hybrid nature of the environment throws me off in terms of how I want to capture it. Visually the space is very much like what I shoot when I'm back home in Hong Kong, it is dense, bright and textured. Yet the nature of the environment acts very much like the western city it is in, isolated, detached and common. It is exactly what it is, a recreation of one's natural habitat in a foreign land, a cultural theme park within a few city blocks.
Like a theme park, I find the familiar endearing and the differences absolutely annoying. Unable to accept the space for what it is, I complain about the things they aren't doing 'right', how it's done better back home, how this is just a mask of signs and lights thrown on to create an illusion of familiarity. I feel like a parent projecting their failures on to their children, how this space disappoints me as it doesn't live up to the standards I wish it can achieve.
When in fact, it is the fusion of the familiar with the odd that reminds me of the confused nature of my own identity. The ever difficult balancing act of assimilation into the culture of my adopted hometown, while desperately trying to hold onto whatever is left of my own. A visit to Chinatown reminds me of how futile my attempts are to remain Chinese while becoming American.
As I'm about to leave New York for another city, I've decided to confront this space, to stop trying to make it something it's not. To finally see it for what it is before trying to figure out another one. And in the process of understanding this hybrid space, maybe it'll allow myself to accept the fact that I've become what musically would be equivalent to a Canto Pop/Hip hop mashup. A set of opposing beats jammed together to form something that's confusing and fucked up, but has the potential to be quite interesting with some finessing.
Yesterday afternoon I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try some different processing techniques… in the hope of finding something that might improve this otherwise crappy image that I’d captured in Mouille Point a couple of weeks ago.
The processed B&W image didn’t look too bad on my large LCD screen at home… but now that I’m viewing it on my LCD here at work… it looks even crappier than the original colour version!! Oh well… I’m chalking it up as a learning experience! :)
Here is a link to the Photoshop tutorial that I used to create the "rain" effect.

Early August 2023...
Storms were predicted & delivered right after midnight. Severe Warned for high winds & hail... This was a sculptured outflow dominate storm. I learned a long time ago doing night storm photography that you have some extra light to make this happen. Not the light from the storm but I use the city lights to help paint the sky.
Sitting now on the so called edge of the city (always expanding). One the few last places I can get good clear view of the sky to the west without power-lines... Probably the last year I can take snaps from this location since there is construction going on all around.
I forgot one of my nice 4k cams with extra sensitivity for night... Figures I had everything ready but forgot to load the battery. Cam in hand I went to town with this set of images with this most impressive ominous overnight shelf cloud. This was an Night Time Eye Candy Storm. What a beauty!

Excerpt from victoriaheritagefoundation.ca/HReg/NorthPark/Quadra1611.html:
ARCHITECTURE:
This brick and stone church is a fine example of the Gothic Revival. Its picturesque asymmetry, steep copper spire, and window surrounds are details reminiscent of British architects of the Victorian era. It has a steeply pitched, cross-gabled roof with parapeted gables; paired buttresses topped with tiers of stepped stone lead up to the front parapeted gable which sits high off the roofline. A small, five-sided bay with a conical roof is centrally located on the main gable below its windows. The eye is drawn to the slim, octagonal spire by tiers of paired, stepped, brick and stone buttresses on the square bell tower. The tower has two rows of large dentils above the
vents for the bells. There are a multitude of Perpendicular Gothic arched windows with stone, quoined casings around the building. The southwest entrance has a steeply gabled roof; the north and south aisles have deep, shallower-pitched, shed roofs.
In December 1960 a fire gutted the church, but firefighters saved the main walls and the tower, and it was rebuilt by 1964. Many windows were destroyed in the fire, and some are now obscured by reinforced glass. Alan Hodgson designed an office and reception room between the church and rectory in 1982.
ORIGINAL OCCUPANTS:
The first church of St. John the Divine was built in 1860 on land donated by the Hudson’s Bay Company; that site is now occupied by the “old” HBC department store. The church was a gift of Baroness Angela Burdett-Coutts of the Coutts banking family in London, England. She arranged for prefabricated sections in corrugated iron to be shipped out and these became the “Iron church,” the first Anglican church to be consecrated in the colony of Vancouver Island. This church stood for 53 years but was outgrown by 1912. Happily for the parish, the Hudson’s Bay Company bought back the site for $140,000 and this financed the building of a new church, for $170,000, just a little to the east.
The cornerstone of the new church was laid in May of 1912. The last service in the old Iron Church was on 12 December 1912, followed by a solemn procession to the new church, with everyone carrying something - vestments, plate, linen, hymn books, etc.
A splendid new organ was installed and St. John the Divine soon gained a reputation for the high quality of its music - a tradition that endures to the present. Prominent parishioners in the early years were the Finlaysons, the Tolmies and the Kers.
The parish had just celebrated its centenary in December 1960 when disaster struck. An electrical fault caused a fire that destroyed almost everything except the exterior stone and brickwork. Gone were the organ, the stained glass windows and the pulpit in a conflagration so intense that it warped the steeple, giving it a lean to the east to this day. The damage was estimated at $700,000. Among the few things saved were the font and the bell, both from the old church, and two tapestry altar frontals from Westminster Abbey in London, England, given by the Ker family. Restoration included a new 3,300-pipe Casavant organ that cost $60,000 and was, at the time, the largest in the province. New stained glass windows were endowed by the Ker family, parishioners for three generations.
It took until 1981 for full restoration to be completed and a final touch was the Peace Reredos, a wooden backdrop to the altar. This replaced an original reredos which was a World War I memorial. More recently, in 2005, a new stained glass window was installed in the chapel on the south side of the church. The design is a contemporary rendering of the Crucifixion and the artist, Lutz Haufschild, won an international competition for the project.

After posting my gloomy comments with my sombre foggy sunrise pics yesterday, it was a sunny crisp warm morning here.
Do you ever look for a 'sign' from the universe?
Well, I don't.
But I do think there's something intriguing about the theory regarding 'The Law of Attraction'.
i.e.: What is in your head, you attract.
www.wikihow.com/Use-the-Law-of-Attraction
This link gives 7 steps, but honestly, quite often things start to happen quickly after just making a decision with faith, and I'm not talking about religion here.
Just simple trust within your being.
After my dispirited comments concluded with the half-baked woeful intention (well, it gets boring being tragic after so long, doesn't it…), to become more proactive towards creating/enjoying a more positive existence, a cheerful visitor dropped in to help amaze me out of my stagnation.
Just fluttered past my eyeline, choosing a resting spot in the nearby frangipani tree to strengthen his brand new wings in the sun.
And stayed there for so long, that I had time to run inside for the camera, return with a chair to stand on for a better angle of view, set up at various points/distances, fiddle with settings, take about 120 photos…well, you never know, none of them might be any good..
He was quite content to enjoy that sunny spot for ages and although as always, the breeze was waving the garden around, he stayed almost completely still.
What a gift..

Prédica sobre la oración | Acerca de la práctica de la oración
No le dais importancia a la oración en vuestra vida diaria. El hombre descuida el tema de la oración. Las oraciones solían ser superficiales, el hombre simplemente las hacía mecánicamente. Ningún hombre ha ofrecido nunca completamente su corazón ante Dios ni se ha comprometido en la verdadera oración con Dios. El hombre oraba a Dios solo cuando surgían problemas. Durante todo este tiempo, ¿alguna vez has orado verdaderamente a Dios? ¿Alguna vez has derramado lágrimas de dolor delante de Él? ¿Alguna vez has llegado a conocerte delante de Dios? ¿Alguna vez has tenido una oración íntima con Él? La oración se logra por la práctica. Si por lo general no oras en casa, entonces no vas a tener manera de orar en la iglesia, y si por lo general no oras en las pequeñas reuniones, entonces no vas a ser capaz de orar en las grandes. Si normalmente no te acercas a Dios ni meditas Sus palabras, entonces no vas a tener nada que decir cuando sea momento de orar, e incluso si oras, solo será de boquilla; no será una oración verdadera.
