100x photos taken on a 1500 mile walk #19 (205 miles down...)
I swift five miler where the threat of rain was ever present. A dramatic burst of sunlight suddenly illuminated an otherwise grey day.
A lightning during the greatest lightning storm of Thessaloniki at 17-6-2009. That's my favorite lightning pic and I have taken plenty of them, I love photographing lightnings. If god exists, that moment could be a moment of his presence.
NS 7116 heads up the elusive NS local on its way out of Champaign. The short train passes by the classic approach searchlight after having been delayed by CN, whose northbound sat across the diamond for a good forty five minutes or so. That intervention gave me the chance to get out of work and shoot the local on my lunch hour - and hey, I didn’t even have to skip lunch to do it. Timing is everything, and the timing on CN and NS there couldn’t have been better.

After a dull sunrise all of a sudden, the clouds cooperated for a short moment letting a mastic moment of light unfold...
Be careful when shooting this great location on the Faroe islands and make sure to keep a close eye on windgusts and the wind direction. One wrong step and it is a very long way straight down into the sea :D
This image looks north-west from above the Tasman Sea into the Dee Why Headland area. In the lower left of the image is the 25m North Curl Curl rock pool (with permanent large rock feature in the middle of it!). Man-made intervention in its construction has been minimal and wildswimmingaustralia.com describes it as the most natural-feeling man-made pool their reporter had ever swum in.
Further round in the bay on the left a set of concrete steps can be seen leading up to a sheltered building. It houses the North Curl Curl Life Saving Club.
The Dee Why Headland extends off to the north (right above). It is a sensitive coastal ecosystem, providing an important wildlife corridor between Curl Curl (to the south) and Dee Why Lagoons (to the north). The rugged sandstone headland boasts spectacular views south to Manly and north to beyond Long Reef.
Beyond the northern end of the Headland sits Dee Why Lagoon, which makes up some 40% of the Dee Why Wildlife Refuge, an extremely significant area for local and migratory birds (from afar as Japan and China). The rest of the Refuge is made up primarily of swamp-based bushland, but also includes the coastal dunes that separate the lagoon from the sea.
Atop the headland and reaching inland are the northern Sydney suburbs of North Curl Curl and Dee Why, with a combined population of some 26,000 people. They sit some 18 km north-east of Sydney's central business district and the world-famous harbour.
I was aboard a DHC-2 Beaver floatplane flying north en route to the Palm Beach Water Airport on an afternoon flight. As you can see from the sunlight angle, from a photographic perspective the views would be better during a morning flight north with the sun behind you. Stay the day and the afternoon return flight is inland and you get great views over the coastal communities to the sea.

This was my attempt at a minimalistic poster, and honestly, I don't think it's too shabby.
Now onto films 2, and 3.
With Norfolk Southern's restructuring of their Triple Crown subsidiary, there are only two Roadrailer trains left on the whole system running between Detroit and Kansas City: #255 and #256. #255 has been a mainstay on the Springfield-Hannibal District for years, but I had yet to catch #256 until this morning. Thanks to a little divine intervention via the Auto-Router, #256 caught an Approach signal at Curran which slowed him down just enough for me to snag him passing the AMC Show Place theater at Cockrell Lane.

this year I will try to choose one photo a day for this pseudo-project, no matter the motive, style, colour or technique. encouraging myself to shoot everyday, even if I can't go outside.
Did a quick one for Bloomberg View today

In 1998, Paperhand Puppet Intervention’s directors Donovan Zimmerman and Jan Burger met and began a collaboration of epic proportions. Since then, 25 years ago, they have been using papier-mâché, cardboard, bamboo, your old house paints, cloth, and other assorted junk (treasure to us!) to create incredible giant puppets, masks, shadow plays and spectacle performances for all ages.
Paperhand Puppet Intervention’s mission is to use diverse styles of puppetry and artistic expression to create works that inspire, promote social change and are deeply rewarding for all involved. These styles include: giant puppets, rod puppets, shadow puppetry, masks, stilt dancing and anything under the sky that strikes our fancy.
Our vision is inspired by our love for the earth and its creatures (including humans). We will synthesize many art forms including, but never limited to, sculpting, painting, dance, music, improvisation, costume design, set design and theater. We are committed to creating multi-scaled and multi-disciplinary puppet performances that support this vision.
They perform at various venues throughout North Carolina from August till late September.
Explored - Highest position: 424 on Friday, July 12, 2024. Thanks for all the views, comments and FAVs.
I strive to give to others a sense of sacredness, because an art event is not just a formal fact but also a moment where you put a mark on your dedication. You must have a feeling of joining a tribe where there is the stick of command, because you are in a sacred place with its rules…

“I do not like it.
The situation is all but under control. Nothing could spoil this harvest save one circumstance...
The she-human must be relieved of the she-spy's gatemaking device before she learns of its existence, or as soon as possible...whichever comes first. I trust you will impress upon the target replacer the importance of discretion, Commander.”
“Of course, Your Majesty. It will be confiscated while she is in the unconscious state the humans call 'sleep'.”
Mushroom mycelia (can you believe Reldan thought they were roots?) make an excellent fire...so warm. A perfect ending to another hard day of walking. So tired, though...
Tomorrow we're leaving this desert...
“Good night, Reldan. Are you going to sleep?”
“I was going to keep watch; I'm not too tired yet. Good night, Quane.”
Clearing a space in the sand...curling into a ball...ahhhhhh.
…
Wha-
What the...my bag is moving...Reldan?
“Reldan? What are you doing?”
“Aaaaaugh! Nothing...”
“Were you...searching through my stuff?”
“No, not searching, no. I wanted some water.”
He's holding something small and black...hiding it from me? He's not supposed to keep any secrets from me...
“What's that?”
My now-piqued curiosity outstretches an arm and sends my fingers probing toward the object he's trying to hide behind his back.
“Please, I don't want you to hide things from me; you can trust me...Reldan!”
He tries to back away but I move toward him and he unbalances, dropping it.
“No!”
Light-a rectangle of light?
Yes-springing out of the black device. I walk over to look.
“Come back, Quane, it's dangerou-”
Arms sprout from the glowing polygon and grab at me...my legs...IT'S GOT ME AAAAAUUUUUGHHHH
Reldan is rushing forward to help me, but...it's too late.
A heavy something is hitting my head and-

I'll be honest, I don't like having to doll up the photos this much. Seems sort of like cheating. Regardless, there won't be any more glowing mushrooms to edit in the future, hopefully...
Besides the usual complaints about my self-inflicted post-production torments, I genuinely hope this does not confuse you. It is not meant to; I'm beginning to wrap up the story arc.
