what is he going to think when he grows up and sees so much of his life online?

 

I honour and cherish him all my days, he is a wondrous and magical gift.

A daily record of a woodland that I've been familiar with for 34 years. It is good to record these places in a very personal way come rain or shine. I like to see the place without making anything picturesque, rather setting down what's before me at different times of day and not overworking each piece, keeping it spontaneous and fresh. Inspired by Charles Burchfield and Emily Carr among others. In some ways a pendant to my Simon's wood series and to be part of my Looking Out exhibition.

Getting ready for winter......

Looking out the abandoned Catholic Community Center in East St. Louis. One of many abandoned buildings. More photos from the day on Picasa.

World Trade Center Transportation Hub

 

The hub connects 11 subway lines, the PATH train, the Battery Park City Ferry Terminal, and several downtown buildings.

The soaring main hall features white marble floors and a 355-foot retractable skylight.

The Oculus is also now home to the 365,000-square-foot Westfield World Trade Center mall.

In many countries, gestation crates are the cages that impregnated adult female pigs, also referred to as sows, are kept in for all but the last five to ten days of their pregnancies. For the nearly four months of their gestation, they live inside a cage that is just larger than the size of their bodies, roughly two by seven feet. They can lie down, sit, and stand but cannot turn around, walk, avoid the aggression from sows in neighbouring stalls, or respond to changes in the environmental temperature. Millions of pigs live in these extremely constricted spaces every day, despite many countries banning the practice on the grounds of animal welfare. Gestation crates are also known as sow stalls.

 

Proponents of the crates claim that they are necessary to prevent fighting among the pigs, while those in opposition say that the crates constitute animal abuse. We do know that living in these conditions, often in darkness, does not allow for the animals' natural behaviours, and research shows that the animals in crates exhibit expressions of stress, fear, boredom, and despondency. The crates do not have bedding, and the pigs lie on slatted plastic, metal, or concrete floors, to allow for the flow of waste to be easily collected in pits beneath them. Nevertheless, pigs living in gestation crates, as seen in these photographs, are often living in their waste, and their bodies are filthy.

I've been a glasses wearer for 25yrs this year. Ages, just under three quarters of my life. I think I need to take more care of them - they are looking a bit old.

 

* This photo was taken soon after swimming... I'm hoping that explains the eyelash chaos... rather than it being my usual self ;-)

Looking outside through a window in Susie Osler's pottery studio, Brook Valley, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

This modern dairy farm in Turkey is a simple, typical example of how cow milk is produced. On this farm, calves are removed from their mothers within 24 hours of birth. Naturally, calves would wean themselves from their mothers at eight to ten months of age. This calf separation practice allows the mothers' milk to be collected and sold for human consumption.

 

Newborn calves live inside individual, tiny pens for the first 15 days before being moved into barns. Calves will never suckle from their mothers and are instead fed manufactured commercial milk powder mixed with water. If the calf is female, she will be exploited for milk like her mother, being artificially inseminated for the first time at 14-15 months old. Male calves here are fattened for slaughter and killed at 12 to 24 months of age.

 

Mother cows are milked three times daily by milking machines. The national average milk yield for Turkish dairy cows is just under 20 litres per day, while, according to industry reports, some large farms average closer to 30 liters of milk per day from each cow.

 

Two months after a cow has given birth, she will be artificially inseminated again, and will give birth nine months later. This cycle continues throughout the cow's life, until she is no longer "productive" - often at only 5 or 6 years old. The natural lifespan of a cow is 20-25 years. Cows on dairy farms will be sent to slaughter prematurely if they become sick or lame, if their milk production diminishes, or if they are no longer able to become pregnant.

You never know when you might need two binoculars...

This is a great place for hikes in general, but the well marked trails with interpretive signage also makes it an excellent choice for visitors and school groups.

I kinda like how the edges of this photo just fade into black... I had big hopes for today's 365, I was gonna take a picture of me jumping in puddles :) But it didn't work out.... My rain boots don't fit me anymore, and it was reeeaaallly cold... So I figured I'd just do it when I got new rain boots...

Random Fact about Me:

I think in book-form and see in photos. As in, when I remember stuff, I remember it as if I'd read it in a book. Like, I was really sad that day. I felt like the whole world was against me, and I just wanted to curl up and sleep; sleep forever. But I don't actually remember feeling that way, I just know it as a fact. Yes I did feel that way once. And the seeing in photos part, wherever I look, I go like "Oh, that would make a nice photo.." And stuff like that...But putting that into reality and actually taking a photo is a lot harder...

 

Almost SOOC except for crop and a bit more contrast...

I went out tonight and just got back so I didn't think it was a great idea to work on Dreamtime tonight with my mind in a fuzz (sorry Sheena!!!). So I just fooled around with an old photo.

 

This is when you look back on your archives and go, "What in blue blazes was I doing???"

 

This was when Chris and Char came to Singapore and we all went on a laadeedaa outing to Underwater World (I hadn't been in eons so I thought it was a good idea). I think what happened here was I found this small cavern like entrance that is supposed to be for kids, its for you to view some shellfish from inside a sphere, and apparently everyone can see you making a fool out of yourself from outside the sphere. Trust me to do something like that.

 

Sidenote: Sometimes, why I don't like to go to places of interest like the zoo, or even the underwater world, when I'm older, is because when you see it a second time after a long while, it seems to erase the magic the place had for you when you were 8, or 10...

Looking out the window of an abandoned cabin up on Smoky Mountain in Tennessee. So gorgeous! Please View On Black

I bet a long time ago, people used to swim in that pond. It's far to stagnant for that now.

The view from an abandoned house.

I found these growing at a local park. They are incredibly striking. I could not resist posting several.

Eager to catch the fall colors, we took a week in late autumn and headed to Austria and Italy for a road trip exploring the back roads while chasing creative photography opportunities.

 

From the Alps to the Dolomites - these photos are the result.
