Today was a busy photography day, in the best way of course! It was so busy that this was the only time I actually had to sit and put something together for my own 365, all the other work is top secret (for now!).
The last few weeks have been both amazing and difficult at the same time, I've been fortunate enough to have been featured on some fairly popular blogs which has given me a whole new set of opportunities and offers and I'm excited about these new doors opening up, at the same time however, I've been feeling my own personal creativity and inspiration severely lacking which is making things a tad unbalanced in my own head. I'm hoping it's just one of those fleeting bouts of non-inspiration.....
*Working Towards a Better World
This is a diptych I did with newspaper and acrylics on canvas. The idea for the work was to encourage the love of curiosity and learning. I believe that art can create an interest and make people ask questions, think and be encouraged to research which can then broaden out into action. We artists should promote education worldwide.
A nice multiview postcard, my first one from Brno! It looks like a city worth visiting. The postcard is in Czech language. Ahoj, Blanka! ;)
Six Aboriginal language groups are the traditional owners of the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area:
Darug.
Gundungurra.
Wanaruah.
Wiradjuri.
Darkinjung.
Tharawal.
I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which I work and live, and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. I pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
On a rainy, misty afternoon, my youngest fella, Rylan and I decided to head out to test some new photo gear we had purchased. The conditions were not ideal, but with the greatly appreciated bout of rain that was falling, the opportunity was there to capture some decent water flow!
I had heard of a place named Water Nymph Dell, which seemed quite photogenic so off we went in search of water Nymphs!!
There are two entry points to the Dell, we choose the Glenview Rd Wentworth Falls entry to the north. Heading down took us around 20-25 minutes on a steep decline.
It’s a beautiful spot with a lovely rainforest feel. If you want to see the Dell at it’s finest, one needs to visit after heavy rain and you’ll see the water flowing at its best. The rocks here are all covered in beautiful moss, and the stream weaves in interesting twists and turns amongst tree-roots and fallen trunks.
The other waterfall we shot was the ever popular Empress Falls, at Wentworth Falls, starting at the Conservation Hut. This was to be my first time in actually photographing this picturesque bundle of tumbling turbulence. Empress was quite full and with mist and rain greeting us, made for some challenging captures.

Black-capped Chickadee (Poecile atricapillus)
“A bird almost universally considered “cute” thanks to its oversized round head, tiny body, and curiosity about everything, including humans…. Chickadees may be found in any habitat that has trees or woody shrubs, from forests and woodlots to residential neighborhoods and parks, and sometimes weedy fields and cattail marshes. They frequently nest in birch or alder trees…. Chickadees are active, acrobatic, curious, social birds that live in flocks, often associating with woodpeckers, nuthatches, warblers, vireos, and other small woodland species. They feed on insects and seeds, but seldom perch within several feet of one another while taking food or eating. Flocks have many calls with specific meanings, and they may contain some of the characteristics of human language….. Most birds that associate with chickadee flocks respond to chickadee alarm calls, even when their own species doesn’t have a similar alarm call.”

Inspired by the movie Arrival.
The premise of Arrival concludes that your language determines how you're able to perceive the world and what your psychological limitations are; the more complex your language, the more you're able to understand about the complexity of reality.
The movie pushes the concept so far as to say that learning an advanced alien language could allow you to see moments outside of time.
This image represents how someone with this type of advanced language would see a woman climbing a wall; all moments would be visibly occurring simultaneously.
This fishmonger uses some kind of sign language to communicate with his colleagues across the aisle.

Helgoland is a German island in the North Sea. In the past, the island has been part of Denmark and the United Kingdom, but since 1890 it has been German property. It is considerably further away from the coast than the East Frisian Islands. Strangely enough, it is not part of the customs territory of the European Community. On Helgoland, Halunder freesk is spoken, a North Frisian language. The main island, with the recognizable cliff of Trias fur sandstone, which is subdivided into Oberland and Unterland. The small island of Düne is mainly covered with sand and popular with nudists. There is an airport on Düne and there are two bungalow parks. Helgoland is traffic-free: there are only a few cars, and cycling is prohibited. There is a small bus that makes a tour around the island. There are also some electric vehicles that serve as vans. Helgoland can be reached by high-speed catamaran, ferry or by small propeller plane. The island enjoys considerable fame among nature and especially bird lovers because it is an important breeding ground and stopping place for sea birds from the North Sea region and for migratory birds. The Northern Gannet is a seabird living at the coasts of the North Sea. Colonies are mostly located on offshore islands with cliffs, from which the birds can more easily launch into the air. Gannets breed here on the cliffs of Helgoland in the summer. The birds overwinter at sea and are known to follow ships. They dive for fish in a spectacular way and can do that at a speed of 100 km/hour if they drop.
The unique island Helgoland in the North Sea has great flora and fauna for nature lovers. The most preferred way of strolling around the island is by walking. At the northern end of the Oberland you can see "Lange Anna" a landmark of Helgoland. Lange Anna is a tall 47 metres high sea stack of Buntsandstein. Its real local name is Nathurn Stak. Climbing the stack is not allowed but tourists may view the rock from a distance. Northern Gannets started breeding on the German island Helgoland about 25 years ago. The colony, nowadays holding about 700 breeding pairs, birds annually die on the nest. Gannets build their nests on steep cliff faces. They used seaweed to construct the nest. Northern gannets exhibit many types of aggressive behavior while they are nesting. Confrontations normally only take place between birds of the same sex. A female will not react if a male approaches a nest but it will react fiercely if another female approaches. The fights between males occupying nests for the first time are particularly intense. Such fights can last for up to two hours and may lead to serious injuries. Birds lunge at each other and lock bills, wrestling for extended periods while neighbors peck at them. This shot was taken during the breeding season at the Breithorn rock.
Helgoland is een Duits eiland in de Noordzee. In het verleden is het eiland onderdeel geweest van Denemarken en van het Verenigd Koninkrijk, maar sinds 1890 is het Duits grondbezit. Het ligt aanzienlijk verder uit de kust dan de Oost-Friese Waddeneilanden, waar het niet toe gerekend wordt. Het hoofdeiland, met de herkenbare klif van Trias bontzandsteen, dat is onderverdeeld in Oberland en Unterland. Helgoland is te bereiken per high-speed catamaran, veerboot of per kleine propeller vliegtuig. Aan de noordkant van het Oberland zie je Lange Anna, een herkenningspunt van Helgoland. Lange Anna is een lange 47 meter hoge rots (nu door omvallen bedreigde) van bontzandsteen. De echte lokale naam is Nathurn Stak. Het beklimmen van de rotspunt is niet toegestaan, maar toeristen kunnen de rots van een afstand bekijken. Het eiland geniet aanzienlijke faam bij natuur- en vooral vogelliefhebbers omdat het een belangrijke broed- en pleisterplaats is voor zeevogels uit het Noordzeegebied en voor trekvogels. De Jan-van-gent is een zeevogel met een groot verspreidingsgebied in de Noordzee. De naam van deze vogel heeft niets met de naam van de persoon Jan van Gent te maken. Het woord gent is verklaarbaar en herkenbaar voor een mannelijke watervogel zoals een gans. Mogelijk heeft het ook te maken met de Nederlands gewoonte om in uitdrukkingen de naam Jan te plaatsen zoals "Jan en alleman", vandaar jan-van-gent. Jan-van-genten broeden in de zomer op klippen op rotsige eilanden zoals Helgoland. Jan-van-gent vogels vertonen veel soorten van agressief gedrag terwijl ze nestelen. Confrontaties vinden normaal gesproken alleen plaats tussen vogels van hetzelfde geslacht. Een vrouwtje zal niet reageren als een mannetje een nest nadert, maar het zal fel reageren als een ander vrouwtje nadert. De gevechten tussen mannen die voor het eerst nesten bezetten, zijn bijzonder intens. Dergelijke gevechten kunnen tot twee uur duren en kunnen leiden tot ernstig letsel. Vogels vallen naar elkaar uit en worstelen langdurig terwijl buren naar hen pikken. De vogels overwinteren op zee en staan erom bekend dat ze schepen volgen. Ze maken dan lange tochten tot in de Middellandse Zee. Ze duiken op spectaculaire wijze naar vis en kunnen dat met een snelheid van 100 km/uur als ze zich laten vallen.
The Putra Mosque, or Masjid Putra in Malay language, is the principal mosque of Putrajaya, Malaysia. Construction of the mosque began in 1997 and was completed two years later. It is located next to Perdana Putra which houses the Malaysian Prime Minister's office and man-made Putrajaya Lake. In front of the mosque is a large square with flagpoles flying Malaysian states' flags.

"So ... tell me more about yourself," she says.
"Well, there's nae much ta tell ..." he replies, before breaking into song.
"Thought that I'd be happy, going to be so happy,
living life alone and never sharin' anythin'.
"Thought that I was finished.
Thought that I was complete.
Thought that I was whole instead of bein' half of somethin'.
"Thought that I was growin',
growin' older, wiser;
understanding why this world held nothing for my spirit.
"Thought that I was destined,
destined to be nothin'.
Destined to be nothin' in this world
and then I met you ...
"And now I'm on my way from misery to happiness today ..."
She sits spellbound, entrance by his melodious Scottish accent.

On February 21, 1952 Police opened fire on a student demonstration in Dhaka demanding Bangla to be one of the national languages of the then Pakistan. A number of students of Dhaka University laid down their lives in that shooting and thus creating a unique event in the annals of History. Never before has any one laid down their lives for recognition of their mother tongue!
This event is observed throughout Bangladesh and in Dhaka it begins with laying of floral wreaths starting from midnight followed by early morning barefoot procession towards the Central Shaheed Minar located near Dhaka Medical College Hospital (the location where the students were shot and killed).
Its observance was also formally recognized by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution in 2008 establishing as the International Year of Languages!
