Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

I have had the following quote on my mind the whole evening and a desire to share it; I hope it speaks to your heart as it does to mine. Be blessed!
Our greatest fear should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that don't really matter.

I'm driving your car with you
Sleeping in the seat next to me like a baby
You twist and you turn
You're traveling fast like a bird in a dream
Look at it go
Look at it dance over the sky like a rocket
A love machine, a cinematic dream
So pure and it hurts
When the beauty is lost in the speed
'Cause everything matters to me
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
To me
You're part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark
You're a part of the morning and everything matters
And we are, an atom and a star
You're a part of the movement and everything matters
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
I'm watching a storm turn into form
In the clouds of the world like a burst
It dances and it twirls on the top of the world
It is good and it hurts
Look at it go
Look at it dance over the sky like a rocket
A teacher, a simulated dream
A cure, a cure for the hurt
And the pleasure you feel is real
You're part of the dawn where the light comes from the dark
You're a part of the morning and everything matters
And we are, an atom and a star
You're a part of the movement and everything matters
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
(To me, to me, to me, to me)
Quelque part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer
Les fleurs qu'on a cueillies
Part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer
Les fleurs qu'on a cueillies
Part avant l'aube
Quand la lumière veut nous voir
Quelque part dans le monde
Un oiseau s'endort sans bruit
Toi et moi
Dans la nuit on trouvera
Quelque part où déposer

It is interesting to me how difficult times help us to evaluate priorities, bringing into focus things that matter most.
At a protestation on the front lawn of the Parliament Building in Ottawa Ontario Canada for the treatment and murders of countless indigenous children in the residencial school system run by the catholic church... What a shame... Its beyong words what the church did. no amount of apologies or money will repair what they did. All religions are scams for money and power. How many more has to die and suffer in the name of a god...
This was taken on the last batch of test film that was released by the Impossible Project 3 months ago. Quinn and I got some pretty good results and I got to rummage her stuff and rearrange it. I love shooting indoors, because the way a scene looks is a bit more fluid. I can slide a couch out of the way, put up a backdrop, or move everything closer to the windows so I can utilize the natural light that's available. As a matter of fact, using the light coming in through the windows was important on this shoot for testing something else, because I was still getting the hang of my new SLR 680. I don't think I'd done more than one or two other shoots with that camera, and I'm probably just now getting the hang of it. I takes a lot of testing to get used to these old cameras and new film types.

I was thinking of the Jim Croce song, Time in a Bottle, written in 1973 www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO1rMeYnOmM but all my bottles did not work so well so I used a wine glass instead, maybe I should call this One Day in a Glass.
ODC - ONE DAY is the topic for Tuesday 1st January 2013
for anyone interested in the lyrics
Time in a Bottle
If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you
If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I'd save every day like a treasure and then
Again, I would spend them with you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go through time with

What Black Lives Matter Means (and Why It's Problematic to Say "All Lives Matter")
Saying that black lives matter doesn't mean that other lives do not.

What Does Black Lives Matter Mean?
Black Lives Matter is an anthem, a slogan, a hashtag, and a straightforward statement of fact. While it is not a new movement, the message is central to the nationwide protests happening right now. BLM speaks out against the police brutality and systemic racism that caused the recent deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Tony McDade and Breonna Taylor, as well as the thousands of violent incidents that happen to Black people that aren’t recorded, aren’t reported or aren’t afforded the outrage they deserve. At its most basic level, it calls for a shift in the statistics that Black people are twice as likely to be killed by a police officer while unarmed, compared to a white individual. According to a 2015 study, African Americans died at the hands of police at a rate of 7.2 per million, while whites were killed at a rate of 2.9 per million.

Today is the sesquicentennial of the signing of The Metre Convention by seventeen nations.
A metre matters. That little sentence is a handy reminder to not run down cyclists. Sadly, it originated from the death of Amy Gillett in a training accident. As part of the Australian women's cycling team, training for the Thüringen Rundfahrt der Frauen, she died as a consequence of a vehicle crashing into the training squad.
For the rest of us, metrication have been of lesser consequence — it's not life and death. Of those seventeen original signatories, only one has not implemented the system of weights and measures that are the most visible elements of the convention.
Unremarkably, today is also World Metrology Day. This rushed snapshot of one of my handy measuring tools is a placeholder to celebrate the importance of measurement in our modern world.
This is what the Devil's Fingers Fungus (Clathrus archeri) looks like before it 'hatches' from its 'egg' - the resemblance to the folds of a human cerebrum is very spooky indeed : )
(fragment of a diary found on the southern slope of Mount Etna, Year 2193)
They say the world has ended.
That the surface is just a carbonized memory
of what once was.
And yet, beneath every step,
the earth still trembles.
It no longer speaks to humans —
it doesn’t need to.
It has learned to exist alone,
to expand in silence,
to become memory.
He stands still, on the ridge.
He seeks nothing.
He lets himself be crossed.
Here, time stretches.
Becomes a crack. A breath. A pause.
And maybe this
is what remains after every civilization:
a man listening,
a mountain breathing,
a silence too alive
to be called emptiness.
--------------------------------------------
Materia che respira
(frammento di diario trovato sul versante sud dell’Etna, Anno 2193)
Dicono che il mondo sia finito.
Che la superficie sia solo un ricordo carbonizzato
di ciò che fu.
Eppure, sotto ogni passo,
la terra vibra.
Non parla più agli umani —
non ne ha bisogno.
Ha imparato a esistere da sola,
a espandersi in silenzio,
a farsi memoria.
Lui è fermo, sul crinale.
Non cerca nulla.
Si lascia attraversare.
Qui il tempo si dilata.
Si fa crepa. Respiro. Attesa.
E forse è questo
che resta alla fine di ogni civiltà:
un uomo in ascolto,
una montagna che respira,
un silenzio troppo vivo
per essere chiamato vuoto.
Pan Am 28N arrives at its desintation of Ayer in the wee hours of the morning, when I probably should have been at home getting ready to hit the rack.
FEC 104 being on the point, however, justified staying out later than I planned after work.
I’ve been watching “Fisk”, an terrific Australian TV series, where coffee is super important to their work day. I can take it or leave it, even though my workplace has wonderful coffee machines. I cycle through the options - coffee, tea, herbal tea, hot chocolate, water.
from the archives,,,, several families had a picnic together in a park I was at,,,, thought this was a sweet pic,,, I went a little heavy in the processing but I like it and as my son advised me years ago that is all that matters!!! wishing everyone a wonderful day/evening and thanks so much for your visits,,,,
LEGAL DISCLAIMER: I Do Not Condone Any Acts Of Vandalism Nor Do I Participate In Such Criminal Activity. I Am Simply An Observant and Take Photos Of This Graffiti You Have Come Across.

I will catch up on all of your fantastic photos soon..went straight from work to support the rights of those who are transgendered and continue to be oppressed . A parent recently asked me what I thought about those who are transgendered and I explained to her that I've known Kindergarteners who felt like they were in the wrong body...if a child of 5 or 6 can feel so strongly about this...well, you know all of this legislation comes from a place of not only pure hate but pure ignorance.
Trans Lives Matter is not just about bathrooms, though that legislation is also filled with hate and ignorance. But, Trans Lives Matter goes beyond that into providing a healthy society and supports for those who want to indeed be productive members of society-who have the right to be loved and respected. This world is big enough to welcome everyone. It's shameful that Trump has persecuted everyone but himself and his rich white friends. He doesn't have a clue what it might be like to be a decent human being.
