I decided to start a photo-a-day project.

I'm not sure if I'll do it all the way, but I'll give it a try.

(Serves 4)

4 salmon steaks

8 cherry tomatoes, cut in two

2 zucchinis, washed and sliced

4 teaspoon butter (or cheese)

8 slices lemon

basil or dill

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Place each salmon steak, skin side down, in the middle of a large piece of parchment paper. Cut 2-3 slits into the fish. Season. Brush with butter and cover with 2 slices of lemon, sliced tomatoes and chopped basil or dill.

Fold edges of paper to seal and to create an airtight packet.

Place on baking sheet.

Bake about 25 minutes.

This is one of the last meeting-points where origami Santa's gather together and discuss about the world of "Humans" and how they maybe can change it.

A foldable kusudama-fire keeps them warm.

Did you know that Santa's don't need any sleep at all? I didn't ;-)

***Artist trading cards (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern trading cards baseball cards, or 2 1⁄2 by 3 1⁄2 inches (64 mm × 89 mm), small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets.

The ATC movement developed out of the mail art movement and has its origins in Switzerland.

Cards are produced in various media, including dry media (pencils, pens, markers, etc.), wet media (watercolor, acrylic paints, etc.), paper media (in the form of collage, papercuts, found objects, etc.) or even metals or fiber.

The cards are usually traded or exchanged. When sold, they are usually referred to as art card editions and originals (ACEOs).(Wikipedia)

I sat in my desolation

Withdrawn from all around,

Feeling my life was a ruin, a failure.

I was empty inside with the utter collapse of my being.

I did not care anymore for living or dying.

I was alone in my distress and desolation.

But as I sat sadly on the ground,

The sun reached out his hand to me and touched my face. And so my healing began.

sono veramente orgogliosa di aver partecipato alla realizzazione del calendario 2015 dei medici clown Ridolina...

La sua principale finalità è quella di umanizzare la degenza nei reparti ospedalieri, con primaria attenzione ai bambini ricoverati nei reparti pediatrici ed oncoematologici. Inoltre è specializzata su percorsi di sostegno agli anziani, ai disabili, ed ai soggetti svantaggiati, puntando all’ottimizzazione relazionale ed alla umanizzazione delle strutture sanitarie. I clown dottori dell’associazione operano dal 2001 nell’ospedale S.Chiara di Pisa nel reparto di oncoematologia pediatrica e trapianto di midollo osseo. I volontari del sorriso curano il Pronto Soccorso Pediatrico dell’ospedale di Lucca e l’RSA San Cataldo sempre di Lucca (Ref. Francesco Pisani).

..come sospettavo, lo spazio alla fantasia, quando si usa il ferro fluido, è stai limitato.

Il Ferrofluid e un preparato a base di ferro fluido. Come tale, conserva le sue proprietà "calamitose" se sottoposto ad un campo magnetico. Ci pensavo da tempo ma ho sempre tralasciato per via della ovvietà dei risultati. Non c'è molto margine alla inventiva e fantasia (un po' come per gli omini in miniatura). Non so quindi quanto potrò discostarmi dagli innumerevoli lavori già fatti con questo prodotto. L'unico davvero fuori delle righe e convincente è quello di Fabian Oefner

There is no time talking about the good feelings you have in your head or stomach when you successful enter a decayed location/building. In a hurry and sometimes with a higher heart rate I hunt for good compositions. In this room I walked by on my first 'watch around the corner' because I ordinary prefer the rooms with more mess, chaos and decay. After a few minutes, waiting for another shot I was taking, I decided to go back. So here my imagination started who had a good time hanging out in this chair. I imagine it must be people from 'a high class', or living the good life that could afford a room like this. While taking pictures in other rooms I was still thinking about this room...it had something specials...

Preparación: cortar las papas, batatas y calabacita en cubos medianos. Cortar las cebollas en cuartos. Machacar los dientes de ajo con su cascara así da sabor, . Cortar los morrones en tiras.

Distribuir todas las verduras en una asadera o fuente para horno previamente aceitada. y salpimentar a gusto.

Acomodar el pechito de cerdo en una asadera ya previamente aceitada, condimentar con jugo de medio limón ají molido y si desea jugo de naranja y un vaso de agua para que vaya reduciendo y no se seque. De esta forma al cocinarse, los jugos y el desgrase del pechito de cerdo caen sobre los vegetales dándole a los mismos un sabor único y delicioso.

Llevar la asadera al horno previamente precalentado a fuego fuerte y cada tanto ir mojando los vegetales con cucharadas de caldo. A partir de los 45 minutos ir verificando que el pechito se encuentre dorado y cocido, al igual que las verduras que se pueden ir pinchando con un tenedor para verificar su cocción. Una vez alcanzado el punto deseado de cocción de la carne, apagar el fuego del horno y dejar reposar unos diez minutos antes de servir.

Personalmente lo cocino a fuego medio despacito

……………………………………………………………………….

All the photos I present were taken in the town of Taormina;

I made photos related to "street photography";

I photographed people who, for the most part, I had never met before, performing their portraits, I thank them for their sympathy and availability;

The volcano Etna, in recent days has shown an intense eruptive activity, even with intense phenomena called "lava fountains", continuous jet emissions persisted intensely for many minutes, of very high "fountains" of incandescent magma, very spectacular and uncommon, in particular, which took place on 23-02 at night, it reached exceptional dimensions and heights; I photographed that spectacular eruptions using a telephoto lens, from Taormina; I photographed Jakub Rizman, an excellent harp player, who spread sweet notes throughout the main square of Taormina, creating a fairytale atmosphere (on YouTube I found some musical performances of him);

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 because the exposure times were deliberately lengthened, they are confused -focused-imprecise-undecided ... the Anglo-Saxon term that encloses this photographic genre with a single word is "blur", these images were thus created during the shooting phase, and not as an effect created subsequently, in retrospect, in the post-production.

………………………………………………………

Tutte le foto che presento sono state realizzate nella cittadina di Taormina;

ho realizzato foto riconducibili alla “street photography”;

ho fotografato persone che, per la maggior parte, non avevo incontrato prima, eseguendo dei loro ritratti, le ringrazio per la loro simpatia e disponibilità;

il vulcano Etna, nei giorni scorsi ha mostrato una intensa attività eruttiva, anche con intensi fenomeni chiamati "fontane di lava", emissioni a getto continuo perdurate intensamente per molti minuti, di altissime "fontane" di magma incandescente, molto spettacolari e non comuni, una in particolare, avvenuta il 23-02 di notte, ha raggiunto dimensioni e altezze eccezionali; ho fotografato da Taormina quelle spettacolari eruzioni, usando un teleobiettivo; ho fotografato Jakub Rizman, un eccellente suonatore d'arpa, che ha diffuso dolcissime note per tutta la piazza principale di Taormina, creando un'atmosfera da favola (su YouTube ho trovato alcune sue esibizioni musicali);

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 poiché volutamente sono stati allungati i tempi di esposizione, sono confuse-sfocate-imprecise-indecise...il termine anglosassone che racchiude con una sola parola questo genere fotografico è "blur", queste immagini sono state così realizzate in fase di scatto, e non come un effetto creato successivamente, a posteriori, in fase di post-produzione.

Happy Bokeh Wednesday :)

Almost the last one of the set, this was taken inside Embankment tube station. This tunnel seemed to just go on and on forever, it looks much flatter in the photo. Again, I have had to flip part of the right hand side as my fisheye seems to be really soft on the left hand side, although again, the original is pretty much the same as this one. Very odd as it was not soft like that before? I think I am going to need to do some tests, although it is within warranty so not too worried. If anyone has experienced this or has an idea why, please let me know.

Found in the very heart of Angus in Scotland, Glamis Castle has been the ancestral seat to the Earls of Strathmore and Kinghorne since 1372. Glamis Castle was the childhood home of HM Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Her younger daughter, HRH Princess Margaret, was born here and was also frequent visitor during her childhood, alongside her elder sister HRH Princess Elizabeth.

#9 #fruit

Longan is a fruit related to rambutan, lychee and ackee. It comes from Southern Asia. The skin is quite tough and leathery if it's not fresh, and the fruit is sweet, similar to lychee. It has a black shiny seed inside and hence the fruit is called 'dragon eye' in Chinese, because the fruit looks a bit like an eyeball!
