Graffity in France in Longwy / Rèhon
Artist: Grafodeco = Scaf Oner
Hinter Grafodeco steckt der französische Straßenkünstler Pierrot, auch bekannt als Scaf oder Scaf Oner. Er ist ein talentierter und kreativer Graffiti-Künstler, der sich auf beeindruckende 3D-Illusionen und interaktive Wandgemälde spezialisiert hat.
Diese gigantische Wand der Stadt Rehon ist mehr als 400 Meter lang und in der Fotografie nicht global zu sehen.
Pierre Bertolotti alias Scaf Er ist ein französischer Graffiti-Künstler. Er schafft auch gerne Klassiker (wie Skelette, Spinnen und Schlangen), um sein Repertoire zu diversifizieren. Er malt seine Tiere sehr oft in Anamorphose, um den Realismus seiner Babys zu steigern. Seine Werke sind ungewöhnlich, fantastisch und manchmal lustig. Die Form der Wände, die gewählten Winkel, die Perspektiven, die Schatten und die Reflexionen verwandeln den gesamten städtischen Raum in eine Bewegungseinstellung.
Es hat die Besonderheit, zwei verschiedene künstlerische Unterschriften zu haben: Grafodeco, wenn es um Auftragsarbeiten geht, und Scaf, wenn es um Straßenkunst geht.
Baldrian Desnoyers alias Valer ist ein Teil von Crew Mill. Er ist ein zeitgenössischer urbaner Künstler, der 1982 geboren wurde.
Dieses 450 m lange Fresko widmet sich der Geschichte der Stadt, einschließlich ihrer Stahlvergangenheit (Fotos Nov 2021).
Lage: Rue de Longwy, Rehon (Abteilung 54 - Meurthe et Moselle)
Fertigstellungstermin: August 2016
Realisierung: Scaf & Valer

This is where i went for 3 days last couple a weeks~ Andamooka.
"Andamooka is a town located approximately 600 km north of Adelaide in the South Australian outback. Opal was discovered in the region in the late 1920s,and the town developed out of the scattered miners' camps which established in the area. The Andamooka Opal was discovered in and named after Andamooka.
The town has a population of around 500 to 600 people, depending upon the season. The town's main industry was opal mining for many years, however since the establishment of the nearby Olympic Dam copper-uranium mine and the town of Roxby Downs in the 1980s, some residents of Andamooka are now employed in the mine or in Roxby Downs, and many others are retired." From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andamooka,_South_Australia
Barbara's wonderful group has been hibernating for a couple of weeks but she's invited me to take it on for a while. It is, in my opinion, the best, high quality colour group in FlickrLand so I'd better not screw it up :-) Excellent images with great use of colour and super composition - that's the aim.
The craving for colour is a natural necessity just as for water and fire. Colour is a raw material indispensable to life. At every era of his existence and his history, the human being has associated colour with his joys, his actions and his pleasures. (Frenand Leger)

WMmaster626 and I headed out to Palmdale in search of many different trucks. In regards to Front Loaders, we were hoping to find the Cal City Volvo EDGE and/or this ex New Jersey Mack MR Wittke/Leach. While eating lunch earlier in the day we saw the Mack drive by but we were unable to find it after we finished lunch fast. Eventually a few hours later while looking for ex WM of the Desert Autoreaches, we came across the New Jersey Mack again, and it did not disappoint. The driver Luis was great and he sure knew how to rev the Mack and make it sound amazing. Currently, there are still several N.J. logos all over the Wittke/Leach body. One of the logos being 70,000 GVW which is a much larger GVW than what California trucks can legally hold in California. There was also a "N.J.D.E.P. 17273 40 CU. YDS" sticker on the body.
WMmaster626 found out that after Trenton demoed this MR Wittke/leach for less than 1 year, it was sent to Palmdale. The MR is LNG powered and it was part of a demo project in N.J. where the truck was filled with LNG from a nearby landfill in Pennsylvania.
Thank you Luis for putting on a great show and thank you to WMmaster626 for finding out all the information about this MR Wittke/Leach. Thanks to Waste Management of AV (Palmdale) for bringing this truck 2,700 miles from Trenton N.J. to Palmdale California.
Unfortunately since WMmaster626 and I filmed this ex New Jersey truck, it has been taken out of service and has been retired. WMmaster626 and I will getting more ex WM of the Desert Autoreach footage before those trucks are retired.

Eigentlich war dieses Foto 1988 absolut nichts Besonderes. Die V60 kam von montags bis freitags 2x am Tag von Bochum-Langendreer, um im Wittener Güterbahnhof zu rangieren und die Anschlüsse zu bedienen. Davon gab es damals noch eine ganze Reihe, Dynamit Nobel, Mannesmann/Zf Getriebe, Kartoffeln Kneusel, Holz Klingelhöfer waren noch nicht alle. In der Stückguthalle herrschte reger Verkehr, denn bis zu 20 Stückgutwaggons wurden entladen. Die Strecke ging bis zum Ende der 1970er Jahr bis Dortmund-Löttringhausen durch. Eine für Busse zu schmale und zu niedrige Brücke ermöglichte die Stilllegung! Der Güterverkehr hielt sich noch bis zum Programm "Mora-C" - dann war Schluss! Gut, dass ich dieses Foto damals gemacht habe, heute ist diese Stelle nicht wieder zu erkennen. Ihr könnt es ja mal versuchen........

I dressed several times in Dec 2021. SherryG and I got together with Brandi for a fun time. This is a Blue Dress that I wore at SherryG's photo shoot.
the millender center and the ren cen in detroit... a leftover shot from the mini-photo safari downtown last weekend.
If you are not French, it’s likely you haven’t ever heard the word “Saintonge”, and have no clue what it means. If you are French, it’s probably the same thing. Unless, that is, you are a fan of Romanesque, in which case you know that Saintonge, that small region of France centered around the town of Saintes (hence the name), not far from the Atlantic Ocean, just North of Bordeaux... features the highest density of Romanesque churches of all the country!
I had never visited that area of France, and so in the middle of October 2021, I took that long overdue trip and stayed two weeks in Saintes, driving left and right daily to photograph all the most significant Romanesque churches... and unfortunately leaving out many others, as they are so thick on the ground!
Being by nature a human activity, even the best and purest of arts can, in time, overdo itself and teeter upon the brink of baroque, exaggeration and overabundance. Built around 1160, about ten years after its magnificent neighbor in Rétaud (which we have seen a few days ago), the Notre-Dame church in Rioux is largely regarded among specialists as having gone slightly over the top in terms of outside decoration.
I have seen the exact same thing with the enclos paroissiaux (“parish enclosures”) in Brittany: the desire to do better and grander than the neighbors, combined with the existence of generous financial means, often leads to an overdoing of things in which the spiritual appears to be drowned in a wave of refinement and superficiality.
This almost exaggerated decoration is often cited as one of the chief reasons why this church was only listed as a Historic Landmark in 1903, while its neighbor in Rétaud was listed in 1862. In the late 1950s, François Eygun, Director of Historic Antiquities, wrote: “This is no more the elegant richness, but the exaggeration of a quality pushed beyond the limits of the reasonable and into bad taste.”
We, visitors of the 21st century, may take a more lenient approach... or maybe it is our own taste that has been distorted over the years by lack of backbone, cheap and self-fulfilling enjoyment (read: selfies!) and reality TV... I will let my viewers decide.
Strangely enough, the façade is probably the most understated part of this church. The top part of the bell tower is from the 15th century, but all the rest shows a remarkable restraint, with only the Virgin in a mandorla and abstract motifs on the voussures around and over the main door.
My exhibition opens tomorrow, Im so happy, but already Im wanting something more, to show my work further afield, London, or another great city.
After these beach selfportraits, Ive half a mind to try a body of work entirely with the sea.
As luck would have it Im headed to the coast this weekend - to shoot a wedding, perhaps I can snatch a moment for myself too.

Calceolaria herbeohybrida
(Slipper flower / Zapatito de Venus)
Calceolaria is a genus of plants in the Calceolariaceae family, sometimes classified in Scrophulariaceae by some authors. This genus consists of about 388 species of shrubs, lianas and herbs, and the geographical range extends from Patagonia to central Mexico, with its distribution centre in Andean region.
Calceolaria species have usually yellow or orange flowers, which can have red or purple spots. The Calceolaria Herbeohybrida group, also called C. herbeohybrida Voss, is a group of ornamental hybrids known only in cultivation, called florists slipperwort.
It all started back in November, 2001, when the newly launched schooner SULTANA and the PRIDE OF BALTIMORE II, took a casual sail together on the Chester River the weekend before both vessels “downrigged” for the winter. The combination of a stiff breeze, the fall colors at their peak, and thousands of waterfowl flying overhead, made it a day few onboard either vessel would soon forget. “We’ll have to do this again next year,” remarked both Captains – and so Downrigging Weekend was born.
Now in its 16th year, Sultana’s Downrigging Weekend Tall Ship and Wooden Boat Festival has evolved into one of the largest annual Tall Ship gatherings on the East Coast.
I was in Thunder Bay in May 1987 and there were a number of C&O/B&O GP40's working on CP. This late evening view caught B&O 3713 along with CP 5679 and 5925 after they had arrived with an eastbound grain train. The colorful Chessie paint stood out in the late evening light as the units backed toward the engine facility. May 30, 1987
Our Daily Challenge ... in my imagination.
Is this little bird really building its nest in my cup or am I imagining it? Maybe it's a dream ... might explain the mono colour!

I saw this man fishing and reading at Mill Lake in Abbotsford, BC, and I thought about how much patience it takes to fish. Then I remembered that if you're living in the moment, nothing else matters.
