Marmalade fly (hoverfly) Episyrphus balteatus taken in my garden in Wigan, Lancs. One of two photos taken from a burst of continuous shots taken in my garden in Wigan, Lancs just as it started to conduct, I mean clean itself!
A veces me reencuentro conmigo mismo y solo basta una imagen que me lo recuerde.
Caminé tantas veces por estos espacios abiertos, donde solo la brisa marina y mis pasos solían dar curso a mis pensamientos.
Ahora cuando miro me doy cuenta de cuanto me faltaba entonces y cuánto me falta ahora, logré tantas cosas que soñaba, sin embargo deje otras realizadas en el camino.
Observando a este padre, con su hijo en el muro de esta tan transitada vía, contemplando como la vida transcurre tranquila y sin prisas en medio de una tarde de Octubre, me siento con ganas nuevamente de tomar por asalto el mundo y mirar como este niño con ojos grandes las pasiones del futuro.
Sometimes I come back to myself and a picture it is enough to remind it.
I walked so many times by these open spaces, where only the sea breeze and my steps used to follow up my thoughts.
Now when I look I realize how much I was missing then and how much I need now, I got so many things I dreamed, however let others made along the way.
Watching this father with his son on the wall of this very busy road, watching as life goes quiet and unhurried in the middle of an October afternoon, I feel like again to take by assault the world and look like this child passions with big eyes the future
The Rolex Learning Centre ("EPFL Learning Centre") is the campus hub and library for the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Lausanne, Switzerland. Designed by the winners of 2010 Pritzker Prize, Japanese-duo SANAA, it opened on 22 February 2010.
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, partners of the Tokyo-based design firm SANAA, were selected as the lead architects in EPFL's international competition of December 2004. The team was selected among famous architects and even some Pritzker Prize Laureates such as Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Herzog & de Meuron, Ábalos & Herreros and Xaveer De Geyter.
The construction took place between 2007 and 2009. It cost 110 million Swiss francs and was funded by the Swiss government as well as by private sponsors (Rolex, Logitech, Bouygues Construction, Crédit Suisse, Nestlé, Novartis and SICPA).
The building opened on 22 February 2010 and was inaugurated on 27 May 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolex_Learning_Center
I like scenes like this . . . the parents or elders teaching and passing down the cultural traditions. We need more of that.

This is an "Afterglow"- it's the light even after the sunset, but it mostly appears at the other side of sunset

Into the distance a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction is holding me fast how
How can I escape this irresistible grasp?
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings
Unheeded warnings I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to find my way home
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly
Condition grounded but determined to try
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
Friction lock, set
Mixtures, rich
Propellers, fully forward
Flaps, set, ten degrees
Engine gauges and suction, check
Mixture set to maximum percent, recheck
Flight instruments
Altimeters, check both
(Garbled word) - on
Navigation lights, on
Strobes, on
Confirm three-eight-echo ready for departure
Hello again, this is now 129.4
129.4, it's to go
You may commence your takeoff, winds over ten knots
Three-ieght-echo
Easy on the brakes, take it easy, its gonna roll this time
Just hand the power gradually, and it
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapor trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night
There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, a state of bliss
Can't keep my mind from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
I'm open for possibilities. I'm open for choices. I always welcome new ideas. I'm always eager to learn. I'm never going to close my mind from learning.

Have a great sunday!
Fijne zondag!
Morgen start weer een nieuwe fotocursus... Benieuwd wat er zal gebeuren!
Learning To Fly
Tom Petty
Well I started out down a dirty road
Started out all alone
And the sun went down as I crossed the hill
And the town lit up, the world got still
I'm learning to fly, but I ain't got wings
Coming down is the hardest thing
Myself and my mate Ian have been waiting for fog for some time now at Chipping Norton. Missed it yesterday because it wasn't forecast, but nabbed it this morning! YAY!!! This is a 7 shot Panoramic.More shots to come from this morning later. Hope you like "Learning To Fly". Mike
they actually chase each other away but as long as they can't see each other they are fine. just like people.
I love learning Japanese! It's so fun. I use this book (pictured) and other various methods like speaking out loud, flash cards, online resources (such as memorise and YouTube) and apps. :)
Just doing a few jumping shots with Ms. Monnie & Aj ,';0]...
Don't think Ms. Monnie quite got the hang of it as she never really took off!
Aj tried to hold her hand, I thought it was sweet.

In 2018, an indigenous Zapotec woman teaches my wife, a Taiwanese woman, to use the metate to make a large tortilla using techniques that are a 1000 years old.

The American Adventure show just came on Mouse World Radio, and it inspired me to do another post-Memorial Day shot in honor of America, its principles, and the heroes upon which our freedom and those principles are predicated.
I find the end of the show to be especially poignant, but one particular line stands out: "The Golden Age never was the present age..." With regard to our present age, I really hope this to be true. I observe things that I think are indicative of a downward slide in our country's position as a super power--people caring more about celebrity gossip than the Gulf Oil spill that concerns us all, unbridled spending from the executive branch that will likely lead to hyper-inflation or severely burden our future generations, and municipalities and local governments giving serious thought to declaring bankruptcy (I don't fail to see the irony that I myself often read the trivial news of a theme park).
Many Americans are oblivious to all of these things or simply don't care or choose not to educate themselves about these issues. In many regards, we have become a nation that seems, to me at least, to be resting on our past laurels, "coasting by" to a great degree. I hope that I am wrong, and that, in retrospect, this will be a "Golden Era." While I am unabashedly patriotic, and I think there are many great minds that continue to forge our country's greatness, I also think we cannot ride on the backs of these individuals to success. We all must make every effort to thrive individually so that our nation as a collective, likewise, thrives.

I got these the other week when playing "catch" with my son. I was trying to explain to him; keep your eye on the ball.. However, on each attempt, he'd simply close his eyes and hope for the best.
Just had to grab the camera and try and capture it.
Used my prime lens here at f1.8, with just light from a window. Brought the ISO up to 400 to get a higher shutter speed (as the light wasn't that strong).
N.B. No child was harmed in the making of this photograph ;-)
