Due foto qui sotto trovate un ritratto fatto a Giovanna.
Grazie ad una segnalazione di Eric, mi sono reso conto del fatto che tale foto è stata considerata "inadeguata" .
Vi prego, giudicate voi stessi quanto possa essere bacata la mentalità perversa di chi ha potuto giudicare la foto come "inadeguata".
Grazie :)
Heavy trains need a lot of help in their assault of Mullan Pass on the Montana Rail Link. This loaded coal train is no exception, as a 4-pack of MRL SD70ACe's serve as mid-train helpers to help climb the 2.2% westbound grade to the summit.

Difficult conditions....if only I had a press pass:) Then the fencing wouldn't be a problem. Being taller might help also...
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe, and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
I can't help but laugh laugh laugh every time I see this picture. I gave ToeEater a bath yesterday and could not resist snapping a few pictures of her. It's so funny how every time I turn on the water she rushes over and tries to climb into the tub. This time the joke was on her. As soon as I put her in, she gave me those little puppy dog eyes and I could feel her trying to make me feel bad. Too bad, she got a bath anyway...
She's all nice and fluffy now. Not to mention she smelled like raspberries for a good 15minutes.

This week anything Vintage/Retro. Process however you wish. May be colour or B&W. There is a lot of opportunity to be creative!
Calcium Carbide lamps originally date from around the start of the 20th century. This pair belong to my husband who used them for caving, they are from the mid 1970’s.
The caving, or mining lamp, has calcium carbide placed in its lower chamber, called the generator. Water is then put in the upper reservoir.
A valve is used to control the rate at which the water drips through into the chamber containing the calcium carbide. Controlling the rate of the flow of water determines the production of acetylene gas. This in turn controls the rate of the gas flow and the size of the flame at the burner and the amount of light it produces.
The lamp has a reflector behind the flame to help project the light forward, this type of lamp produces a very bright broad light.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
I've had this image in mind for for a long while now. I am not loving the title. Can anyone help me out with a better one?
We're Here theme: "A passion for words" There are words in this shot so I am counting it!

We just cam home with this little guy. He is an American/Boxer Bulldog mix. He is 6 weeks old and knows no fear.
I think that I like Kilter but we haven't committed to anything yet.
Helpers gonna help. Dating back to the time honored tradition of the Pennsylvania Railroad, Penn Central, and Conrail before them, Norfolk Southern helpers give a hand at Lilly, Pa.
The San Francisco Pride parade is a world-renowned LGBT pride parade. It is held on Sunday morning of the Festival. The route is usually along San Francisco's Market Street, from Beale Street to 8th Street.[1] The parade starts nominally at 10:30 am, though it is hours before all the contingents are able to get onto the parade route, and the last contingent doesn't leave the parade route until 2-4 pm.
The parade consists of hundreds of contingents from various groups and organizations. Some of the more well-known contingents are:
Women's Motorcycle Contingent, also known as Dykes On Bikes.[2] Several hundred motorcycle riders, all women. Some of the women are topless, some wear leather or fanciful costumes. The sound of hundreds of motorcycle engines gives this contingent a big impact. Part of the reason they are first in the parade is that it's difficult for motorcycles to run reliably at the walking pace of the rest of the parade, so as the first contingent they can move faster. On November 13, 2006, they won a battle to trademark the name "Dykes on Bikes", having struggled since 2003 to persuade the United States Patent and Trademark Office that "dyke" was not an offensive word.[3][4]
PFLAG, or Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays. Usually one of the largest contingents, featuring several hundred people. These are typically the (straight) parents or family members of LGBT people, sometimes marching together with their LGBT relatives. Many carry signs indicating where their PFLAG chapter comes from. It's common to see signs from all over Northern California. This contingent is notable for the swell in cheers (and some tears) that follow it along the route.
Politicians frequently participate in the parade, as a way of making themselves visible to LGBT prospective voters.
Churches of many denominations, or religious-oriented LGBT groups, contribute several dozen contingents.
Dance clubs and LGBT-oriented entertainment businesses contribute several contingents. It's common for a dance club to decorate a flat-bed truck or float, and have several people dancing on it, along with loud dance music.
The Leather Contingent consists of lesbian, gay and pansexual leather and BDSM groups.
Groups which are anti-gay typically do not have contingents. During the 1990s it was common to see anti-gay protestors in the spectator area along the parade route, holding large signs condemning homosexuality, often with biblical passages. In the 2000s such protestors have become less common.
Hundreds of thousands of spectators, if not over a million, line the parade route along Market Street. Some arrive hours in advance to claim a prime spot on the curb with a clear view of the street. Others climb onto bus shelters, the walls of subway station stairs, or scaffolding on buildings to get a clear view. As the parade ends, the spectators are able to pass through the barriers and march down Market street behind the parade. The end of the parade route is near the Festival location at the Civic Center.
The power we have to help ourselves is immeasurable... it's simply a matter of allowing our hands to work their magic.
A pair of EMD SD40E's lead a pair of brand new SD70ACE's(1003, 1002) downgrade through slope on a loaded coal train that will enter rose yard to cut the helpers off and await a recrew to take it east.
Rio Grande had a penchant for accurately naming locations along the railroad. One such place was Helper, UT. Rio Grande added helpers to heavy westbound trains for the climb to Soldier Summit. 5345 and two sisters have just been added to a heavy MNYRO and will be headed west soon.

"the help" .... ... yesterday Baby Jesus was born, for those who are Christians this represents an immense act of God's love for his children ... and it is to that God-Man that we often resort to asking for help .... who among us ... has never needed help ...?! .....
I photographed people I had never met before, I thank them for their sympathy and availability: I met Antonio and his girlfriend, who came to Taormina to spend the last day together, the next day Antonio will leave to go very far, unfortunately leaving his beloved, to see her again who knows when ... I met the Japanese companion of my dear friend Cesare, who flew to the sky many years ago, I knew about his companion, but I had never met her before ... I photographed a sweet Chinese girl that I met on three different occasions, each time with a little more confidence….
these are just a few minimal photographic stories, collected walking down the street ... in search of fleeting moments ...
For some photographs I used a particular photographic technique at the time of shooting, which in addition to capturing the surrounding space, also "inserted" a temporal dimension, with photos characterized by being moved (confused-blurred-imprecise-undecided) ... the Anglo-Saxon term that encloses this photographic genre with a single word is "blur", these images were thus made during the shooting phase, deliberately lengthening the exposure times, and not as an effect created later, in retrospect, in the post phase -production.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"the help"...."l'aiuto" ...ieri è nato Gesù Bambino, per chi è cristiano questo rappresenta un atto d’amore immenso di Dio per i suoi figli...ed è a quel Dio-Uomo che spesso ricorriamo chiedendo aiuto.... chi tra noi...non ha mai avuto bisogno di aiuto...?!.....
ho fotografato persone che non avevo mai incontrato prima, le ringrazio per la loro simpatia e disponibilità: ho incontrato Antonio e la sua ragazza, venuti a Taormina per trascorrere l'ultimo giorno insieme, il giorno successivo Antonio partirà per andare molto lontano, lasciando purtroppo la sua amata, per rivederla poi chissà quando….Ho conosciuto la compagna Giapponese del mio carissimo amico Cesare, volato in cielo tanti anni fa, sapevo di questa sua compagna, ma non l’avevo mai conosciuta prima…Ho fotografato una dolce ragazza Cinese che ho incontrato in tre occasioni diverse, ogni volta con un pizzico di confidenza in più….
sono queste solo alcune storie fotografiche minime, raccolte camminando per la strada ... alla ricerca di attimi fugaci s-fuggenti ...
Ho utilizzato per alcune fotografie una tecnica fotografica particolare al momento dello scatto, che oltre a catturare lo spazio circostante, ha "inserito" anche una dimensione temporale, con foto caratterizzate dall’essere mosse (confuse-sfocate-imprecise-indecise)...il termine anglosassone che racchiude con una sola parola questo genere fotografico è "blur", queste immagni sono state così realizzate in fase di scatto, allungando volutamente i tempi di esposizione, e non come un effetto creato successivamente, a posteriori, in fase di post-produzione.

Whilst i was taking this shot there were creepy groaning noises from the corridor at the top of the stairs which helped the mood no end.I went up ready to see what was making the noise when a rush of wind coursed through the corridor and I realised it was just the breeze groaning through the grates over the windows.
I shared a shot of the three at work a couple of days ago. This was the return trip, as they drift down Steelton Hill and back to Pokegema to wait for their next trip up the hill.
Mom: What are you doing, Joe?
Joe: I'm trying to learn how to help people in trouble at the beach since I'm there a lot!!
Mom: That's a great idea, Joe.. Who knows, you might even save someone's life one day...
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday, Everybody!!!
I just moved into a new apartment. Not the one pictured, but one with a lot of white walls, and a policy that doesn't allow pets! How am I suppose to fulfill my destiny of being a crazy cat man?
Lately I have been feeling trapped, or restricted by the walls I put up. When I feel this way I have to remind myself that I can change the way I think. I can be hopeful, and determined. Rather than pitiful, and gloomy, which leads to stress eating chocolate bars! I've learned that whatever it is I may be struggling with, to not be afraid to call for help.
The heavens opened up just enough to add an interesting beam of light down onto Canadian Pacific's train 298, as it muscles freight through Ixonia Wisconsin.

That would be my first (but not my last) :)
The last of my Glacier images from this summer. I'm using this image, which is a Marc Adamus compstomp, to ask all my contacts for a little help. I would never make it as a professional photographer partly because I feel pretty uncomfortable promoting myself, which is as important to being successful in this business as actually shooting good pictures. When I see the work of some of the real talents out there in Landscape Photography, I can be honest with myself about where I stand in the grand scheme of things.... and it makes me thankful that I have another source of income so I don't starve. :)
I may not have much confidence in my own work, but I WILL brag about recognizing those photographers who are really exceptional. I ran into Ian Plant and Joe Rossbach in Canyonlands while they were teaching a workshop last year. Familiar with the immense talent they possess behind the lens, I was struck by their friendly demeanor and good nature. Ian was good enough to share some advice with me when I was shooting slot canyons for the first time, and I've assimilated tons of useful information through his daily photo blog. In short, as astounding a photographer as he is, he's a better man.
It has come to my attention that Ian is in the running for a trip to the North Pole. I'm selfishly asking for your help in sending him on his way. I say selfishly because I really REALLY want to see the amazing images he comes back with. Take a look at what he did in Patagonia, and you will see what I mean. For Christmas, if you want to get me something (I'm an extra-large, by the way), I would really appreciate it if you would go HERE, register, and vote to send Ian on this trip. I guarantee you will be pleased with the results.
This is the last image from my family Glacier trip this summer. Ryan showed me this spot after I begged him for a few months, and we spent several days here trying to get decent light. Steve and I shot this mere minutes before we were enveloped in thick fog for over an hour. It dawned on me about 30 minutes after getting socked in that this was the very same location that a bear poked his head up behind that tree when Steve, Ryan, and Jesse were here the year before. This made me nervous, as we couldn't see 10 feet in front of us for quite some time. I would like to personally apologize to the mountain goats that came roaming up their goat path. Apparently they don't like bear spray in their eyes, but hey, all paw/hoof steps sound the same to me when you can't see anything!
Yes, this is a composite. I zoomed in on the moon because at 16mm it looked like the lint I occasionally find in my belly button. Back to work. Thanks for making 2010 such a great year.
I guess I'm not supposed to put my website address here, so it's in My Profile if anyone cares.

Por esa ayuda que nunca se pide, pero que se grita en silencio. Por esa mano amiga que te levanta a peso muerto.
