At Nang Ning, Quang Xi, China, scenery of several limestone hills emerge from plain paddy field is remarkable scene. Some said that those scenery is so beautiful as if painting. There I found bright sunny sky, red soil, green paddy, mild stream of river all composed together an natural visiual art. It is as if I saw colorful postcard turning alive.
The paddy field there was not submerged all the times with water. Red soil seemed so fertiled. Young paddy seemed healthy.
The paddy dike was so low and slim. This should mean that water is quite abundant, no need to stock more water for inadequacy and Every inches of land were utilized even square feet near the road.
(added) Paddy field is mostly located in flood plain area. In Thailand we refer paddy field as "Golden Rice Bowl". however, this rice bowl is in South China

Chiamami adesso, sì,
lo so che prima era…
era più facile…
ma è adesso che ho bisogno io di
farmi trovare, farmi trovare qui
chiamami adesso che
è più buon il mio cuore…
Dammi il tempo che tempo non sia
Dammi un sogno che sonno non dia…
Chiamami adesso che
non ho più niente da dire, ma
voglio parlare lo stesso insieme a te
voglio provare io a descrivermi…
chiamami adesso che
ho bisogno di te…
(Paolo Conte)
“it is pure potential. Every ball or skein of yarn holds something inside it, and the great mystery of what that might be can be almost spiritual”

Street art is visual art created in public locations, usually unsanctioned artwork executed outside of the context of traditional art venues. The term gained popularity during the graffiti art boom of the early 1980s and continues to be applied to subsequent incarnations. Stencil graffiti, wheatpasted poster art or sticker art, and street installation or sculpture are common forms of modern street art. Video projection, yarn bombing and Lock On sculpture became popularized at the turn of the 21st century.
The terms "urban art", "guerrilla art", "post-graffiti" and "neo-graffiti" are also sometimes used when referring to artwork created in these contexts.[1] Traditional spray-painted graffiti artwork itself is often included in this category, excluding territorial graffiti or pure vandalism.
Street art is often motivated by a preference on the part of the artist to communicate directly with the public at large, free from perceived confines of the formal art world.[2] Street artists sometimes present socially relevant content infused with esthetic value, to attract attention to a cause or as a form of "art provocation".[3]
Street artists often travel between countries to spread their designs. Some artists have gained cult-followings, media and art world attention, and have gone on to work commercially in the styles which made their work known on the streets.

NikonFM2. This 30-year-old camera has established itself among the people as a simple, robust, time-tested camera. Possessing all the necessary functionality for daily shooting of various genres, it continues to please and inspire even after so much time.
And if suddenly a blackout occurs and the batteries run out in this crazy world - it will continue to work as intended. You just need to develop a film somehow … and share your inspiring shots with somebody…
Let's hope that our children will be able to appreciate what was so highly valued in those days - simplicity, quality and reliability that last for decades ...

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
I tried to be a boy,
I tried to be a girl
I tries to be a mess,
I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong.
That’s why I wrote this song
This type of modern life – Is it for me ?
This type of modern life – Is it for free ?
So, I went into a bar looking for sympathy
A little company – I tried to find a friend
It’s more easily said it’s always been the same
This type of modern life – Is not for me ?
This type of modern life – Is not for free ?
American life
I live the American dream
You are the best thing I’ve seen,
You are not just a dream
I tried to stay ahead, I tried to stay on top
I tried to play the part, but somehow I forgot
Just what I did it for and why I wanted more
This type of modern life – Is it for me ?
This type of modern life – Is it for free ?
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
American life
I live the American dream
You are the best thing I’ve seen,
You are not just a dream
I tried to be a boy, I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess, I tried to be the best
I tried to find a friend, I tried to stay ahead
I tried to stay on top...
Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
Fuck it... Yeah, Fuck it
I’m drinking a soy latte
I get a double shote
It goes right through my body
And you know I’m satisfied
I drive a mini cooper
And I’m feeling super-dooper
Yo they tell I’m a trooper
And you know I’m satisfied
I do Yoga and pilates
And the room is full of hotties
So I’m checking out the bodies
And you know I’m satisfied
I’m digging on the isotopes
This metaphysic’s shit is dope
And if all this can give me hope
You know I’m satisfied
I got a lawyer and a manager
An agent and a chef
Three nannies, an assistant
And a driver and a jet
A trainer and a butler
And a bodyguard or five
A gardner and a stylist
Do you think I’m satisfied
I’d like to express my extreme point of view
I’m not Christian and I’m not a Jew
I’m just living out the American dream
And I just realised that nothing
Is what it seems
Do I have to change my name
Am i gonna be a star
Do I have to change my name
Am I gonna be a star ?
Do I have to change my name
Fuck it...
From 'Street Life in London', 1877, by John Thomson and Adolphe Smith.
“…The" wall working" or fence working, described by Parker as a " fine property," is a system of cheap advertising. Where a portion of a wall or fence, near some public thoroughfare, can be rented or obtained gratuitously, it is covered with an array of boards, which are hung up in the morning and taken in at night. In this instance, the boards covered with thin bills are supplied to Cannon [seated on the right], who hangs them up in the morning and receives about a shilling weekly for each board. But the number of boards afford no clue to the income derived from this mode of advertising, as an indefinite number of dummies are displayed to fill up vacant spaces. The dummies are carefully selected; the advertisements they carry must be as imposing as the names of their owners are respectable. Cannon assured me that it required tact and experience to manage this sort of property. Unfortunately the dummies have been dominant of late, owing to depression in all departments of trade. The result is that the" wall worker's " property produces a return so poor as hardly to repay the pains bestowed on its management.”
