Everything stops
Before moving on.
People come;
People go.

One of my older cousins died the other day, and after a little celebration (as we do in our close family) to recall some of the joys we shared, I went for a little stroll.
I found this viewing position which featured a number of boundary points between opposite/complementaries.
Pondering upon the notion of Transition I note that each side is obvious, left/right, up/down, wet/dry, light in the sky, light in the water, and so on.
Even the Litter Bin and 'Stop' signs which mark transition infer moments when the point of change is neither in, nor out of one, or the other.
Over-thinking? Perhaps just grieving the loss of a person who was a greater and lesser part of my life for sixty years ...

The pic's not great but it certainly contains a lot of meaning and emotion.

Pics from this afternoon's "We Choose to Fight: Nobody Elected Elon" MoveOn protest at the Department of Treasury.
Just based on what I saw, I'd say 1500 people came to fight back against the oppressive, dehumanizing techniques of the current administration.
I really did not want to go, I feel so scarred after the Proud Boys visits in 2020. But I could not look myself in the mirror and stand back anymore. So just like 1.0, all of these photos are available on Flickr in Creative Commons for media, influencers, and everyday people like me and you to use. Or just take and share any of these. Attribution requested.

Why do Brazilians cannot have a Pro account??
Why do Brazilians cannot have an Ad-free account??
Why is there that abusive increase from $ 23 to $ 1000 Dollars??
Why is this new configuration here worth $ 1000?? Have a great ´´Flick Day´´, my friends! Greetings from Brazil..

Not sure who organised this but as you all know my feelings about the new Flickr, I am showing support. I know some of you haven't been affected yet but it would be great if you could also take one day to post this photo rather than your usual post.

This is a symbolic mark of protest against the new Beta change which Flickr proposes to force upon all users ..
If you wish to make protest, then please only upload a " Black " picture on the 8th December
*** This is available for download should you wish.
With the new platform Beta Team Flickr intend to make further changes that will limit severely the exchanges between users:
1 - There will be no white space below the photo for description, comments or invitations to groups
2 - Difficult to write a comment that contains more than 3 words
3 - We can not see who supports our pics
4 - We can not see in which groups the photo appears
5 - The images of the award will not be visible
6 - The visits will no longer be visible. The latter will only appear in Recent Activity, others will be lost.
7 - For Admin it will become impossible to manage groups so many will close.
8 - Our descriptions, including quotes, links to YouTube or other sites will be hidden
( translated from Italian )
Changes should not delete/destroy/ruin the very factors which caused us to join flickr in the first place ...
Example of page showing how the Beta Flickr shall be.... in first comment.

"Yahoo has new ideas. flickr is offering 1 TB free space for all accounts. Those who want to be rid of advertisements have to pay.
I appeal you all those who plan to quit, to change your mind and stay. You can make use of your accounts just for storage. Make your accounts private, make this image public and use flickr for storage. You can save on external hard disks.
If we check in to a hotel room seeing it's features, should we bear it without a word of protest if they take away the furniture one by one including the bed ? flickr should know that the people who protest are not against 'changes'.
Changes shouldn't steal away the utilities that made people choose flickr.
Protest ! flickr is not just the property of few people who get paid to serve the people that make it. If they offer 1 TB free space for every account, the salaried people who planned it have advertisements in mind. Many unique special utilities made people like you and me join flickr, and flickr is taking away all what that made us choose it. Now the only special thing in flickr is 1 TB free storage. Let's then make use of it, without caring about flickr's revenue. We can seek better places for what we like, still keep this place for storage. If the 'hotel' stinks and cheated us, make it your warehouse or sty. If this is forced on us, you can make your account private, store everything here; display , share and comment elsewhere.
Thank you.
Anuj Nair"

Users of the English version of Flickr may have got the botton " try our new experience Beta"
This is an incredible regression .....once again
No longer any white space underneath pictures for comments, description, invitations etc....
Everything is gathered in a tiny sidebar to the right of the photo in the Lightbox
All features that allow interaction and sharing have gone so groups might also disappear ......

We had got used (more or less) the first changes, but this time, it is a
total scuttling of Flickr and of its spirit of sharing :(
We can't see who faved our pictures
We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8)
Awards images. are not shown
Invitations are not visible except for the last ones (only in "Recent Activity").They're lost.
For admins group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible
Groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures
Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden
NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE
*I specify for those who haven't seen the Beta page;that there is NO
white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations /
flickr Award Counter
Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments
White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes
Unfortunately everything we can do is absolutely useless ....
Unfortunately it is obvious that Yahoo wants to turn Flickr into another social network for teens and young using only tablets and smartphones and whose only interaction is Hi or Lol
Motivated photographers using computers and large screens are no longer interesting users.... ( nor groups since our invitations are only visible on our "Recent Activity "Page....The oldest are lost ....)
How many people know what represents the Beta Page ?? I wonder ?
Only some users of the English version of Flickr ..... but not all of them

Did you know that flickr has been testing a new beta version of flickr?
I haven't actually seen the beta page but I've had it described to me:
"...there is NO white area under the pictures for descriptions / comments / invitations / flickr Award Counter
Only a narrow sidebar to the right of the image ,showing ONLY the last 4 comments
White print on a black and depressive background, that hurts the eyes
No sense. Hard to write comments exceeding 2 or 3 words
We can't see who faved our pictures
We can't see the groups the pictures appear in ( except only 8 )
Awards images. are not shown in comments : which means that neither members nor admins can check
Admin-Invitations are not displayed ( the last ones are visible ONLY in "Recent Activity").The oldest are lost
For admins , group management will become a work more and more difficult or even impossible
Some groups might close......and groups add visibility to our pictures
They allow us to admire beautiful works and to meet with great photographers.
Our descriptions including quotes or links to YouTube or other sites are hidden
NO LONGER ANY CONVIVIALITY.. ANY VISIBILITY . NO SENSE

Version BETA et surement Version Définitive
Pour Information aux personnes Francophones
Français ( copyright Eric Dollet)
*cette Beta Page n'a été disponible (pour le moment) que pour un certain nombre d' utilisateurs de la version anglaise de Flickr
Je précise donc pour tous ceux qui ne l'ont pas vue que la Beta page ne comporte plus de zone blanche sous les photos pour les descriptions / commentaires / invitations / flickr Award Counter..
Seulement une étroite barre latérale à droite de la photo ne montrant que les 4 derniers commentaires
Typographie blanche sur un fond noir et funèbre qui blesse les yeux
Aucun sens .Difficile d'écrire un commentaire de plus de 2 ou 3 mots
Nous ne pouvons pas voir qui a mis en favoris
Nous ne pouvons pas voir dans quels groupes les images apparaissent ( à l'exception de 8 )
Les images des Awards ne sont pas affichées
Les invitations ne sont pas visibles (sauf les plus récentes et seulement dans " Dernière Activité ') Les plus anciennes sont perdues
Pour les admins la gestion des groupes va devenir une tâche de plus en plus difficile sinon impossible
Des groupes risquent de fermer et ils donnent de la visibilité à nos images
Ils nous permettent d'admirer de belles œuvres et de rencontrer des grands photographes
Nos descriptions incluant des citations ou des liens vers YouTube et autres sites sont masquées
PLUS AUCUNE convivialité / visibilité / AUCUN SENS
En fait cette disposition est conçue avant tout pour les tablettes ou smartphones
_Retour des utilisateurs
Malheureusement tout ce que nous pouvons faire semble inutile ....
Yahoo et Flickr s'en fichent
Malheureusement il est évident que Yahoo veut faire de Flickr un autre réseau social pour les personnes (essentiellement ados et "djeunes" ) utilisant seulement des tablettes et autres smartphones et dont la seule interaction est Hi ou LoL
Les photographes motivés utilisant encore des ordinateurs (avec des logiciels d'édition) et de grands écrans ne sont plus des clients souhaitables
( Ni les groupes puisque nos invitations ne sont plus visibles que dans "dernière Activité" ....Les plus anciennes sont perdues et tout est fait pour entraver leur bon fonctionnement )
La publicité est infiniment plus lucrative que nos comptes-Pro
Combien de personnes savent ce que représente cette Beta Page ??? Je me le demande ?
Seulement certains utilisateurs de la version anglaise ....mais pas tous
Les utilisateurs de toute autre langue n'ont pas été informés ; étonnant non???
Tout ceci est très décourageant
Un grand merci tout spécial à Marissa Mayer
Bravo ... On vous dressera une énorme / magnifique / grandiose etc... statue sur les ruines de Flickr ....Bien méritée

I use frequently the English version and realized (or I'm blind) that there is NO word, discussion or forum about the upcoming change in German.
Therefore a translation in German about the upcoming changes.
DEUTSCH:
Liebe Flickr Freunde,
Seit vielen Wochen verfolgen wir die Informationen und Links von Freunden, die der neuen, bald kommenden Beta-Version als 'Tester" "ausgeliefert" waren oder Diskussionen in den Englischen Foren.
Wie ich eben festgestellt habe, findet sich keinerlei Hinweis, Erklärung oder Diskussion auf der deutschen Flickr-Version.
Aufgrund einiger Anfragen unter dem Deutschen "Black Day" - Foto deshalb hier einige Erklärungen in Deutsch für diejenigen, die die geplante auf uns zukommende Beta-Version nicht kennen.
Zunächst die Screenshots von Anuij Nair mit entsprechenden Erkärungen:
Here you will find screenshots and descriptions of the Beta Version:

www.flickr.com/photos/110293295@N04/11222355855/in/photos...
Es macht überhaupt keinen Sinn, die Augen davor zu verschliessen, dass mit der
geplanten Beta Version einschneidende Einschänkungen auf uns zukommen.
Wir hoffen, durch Protest mit "Flickr's schwarzem Tag" doch noch etwas erreichen zu können.
Bitte, ladet Euch das Foto oben auf Eure "eigenen Fotos" hoch und postet es entweder morgen als Information UND in jedem Fall am Sonntag auf Euerm Fotostream, ohne weitere Fotos an diesem Tag hochzuladen.
Die Einschränkungen sind gravierend:
Es wird keinen weißen Raum mehr unter unseren Fotos geben, der Platz für
einen Titel, eine Beschreibung des Fotos oder einen Link (Youtube etc.-Musik) zulassen wird.
Es wird nur einen schmalen shwarzen Streifen mit weissen Buchstaben neben dem Bild geben,
der den Augen wehtut. Darauf sind ALLE Möglichkeiten, zu interagieren zusammengepfercht.
Ein Kommentar wird sich auf 2-3 Worte begnügen müssen.
Maximal 4 Kommentare werden sichtbar sein,
Wir werden nicht sehen können, wer unser Foto gefavt hat.
Nur 8 von den Gruppen, in denen unsere Fotos zu sehen sind,
werden sichtbar sein.
Admin-Einladungen zu Gruppen werden nicht mehr sichtbar sein,
wir müssen sie unter "letzte Aktivität" suchen.
Sie werden nach einiger Zeit nicht mehr zu sehen sein.
Schlimm sowohl für Mitglieder als auch Moderatoren von Gruppen.
Es macht die Arbeit schier unmöglich.
Das Gruppenlogo wird nicht mehr zu sehen sein, lediglich det Text.
(auch bei Award Codes).
"Es scheint offensichtlich, dass Yahoo Flickr in ein anderes soziales Netzwerk für Tablets- and Smartphones-Nutzer
umwandeln möchte, die "Hi" oder "LOL" als Kommentar benutzen und von Foto zu Foto eilen.
Werbung ist wichtiger geworden." Zitat Forum.
I injured my back and had to stand for 3 weeks and this hip shaped blob showed up when I used up some old coffee sitting around the studio. Smells delicious if you are game to smell a pelvis!

*cette Beta Page n'a été disponible que pour les' utilisateurs de la version anglaise de Flickr
Je précise donc pour tous ceux qui ne l'ont pas vue que la Beta page ne comporte plus de zone blanche sous les photos pour les descriptions / commentaires / invitations / flickr Award Counter..
Seulement une étroite barre latérale à droite de la photo ne montrant que les 4 derniers commentaires
Typographie blanche sur un fond noir et funèbre qui blesse les yeux
Aucun sens .
Difficile d'écrire un commentaire de plus de 2 ou 3 mots
Nous ne pouvons pas voir qui a mis en favoris
Nous ne pouvons pas voir dans quels groupes les images apparaissent ( à l'exception de 8 )
Les images des Awards ne sont pas affichées dans les commentaires ; ce qui veut dire que ni les membres ni les admins ne peuvent contrôler
Les invitations n'apparaissent pas ( les plus récentes sont visibles SEULEMENT dans " Dernière Activité ') Les plus anciennes sont perdues
Les invitations sont essentielles au fonctionnement des groupes ( beaucoup sont sur invitation seulement )
Pour les admins la gestion des groupes va devenir une tâche de plus en plus difficile sinon impossible
Des groupes risquent de fermer et ils donnent de la visibilité à nos images
Nos descriptions incluant des citations ou des liens vers YouTube et autres sites sont masquées
PLUS AUCUNE convivialité / visibilité / AUCUN SENS
En fait cette disposition est conçue avant tout pour les tablettes ou smartphones
_Retour des utilisateurs
Malheureusement tout ce que nous pouvons faire semble inutile ....
Yahoo et Flickr s'en fichent
Malheureusement il est évident que Yahoo veut faire de Flickr un autre réseau social pour les personnes (essentiellement ados et "djeunes" ) utilisant seulement des tablettes et autres smartphones et dont la seule interaction est Hi ou LoL
Les photographes motivés utilisant encore des ordinateurs (avec des logiciels d'édition) et de grands écrans ne sont plus des clients souhaitables
( Ni les groupes puisque nos invitations ne sont plus visibles que dans "dernière Activité" ....Les plus anciennes sont perdues et tout est fait pour entraver leur bon fonctionnement )
La publicité est infiniment plus lucrative que nos comptes-Pro
Combien de personnes savent ce que représente cette Beta Page ??? Je me le demande ?
Seulement les utilisateurs de la version anglaise ....
Les utilisateurs de toute autre langue n'ont pas été informés ; étonnant non???
A partir de maintenant c'est nouveau , tout le monde peut tester la Beta Page en choisissant "English" en bas de la page Flickr
Essayez !!!!
Tout ceci est très décourageant
Pics from this afternoon's "We Choose to Fight: Nobody Elected Elon" MoveOn protest at the Department of Treasury.
Just based on what I saw, I'd say 1500 people came to fight back against the oppressive, dehumanizing techniques of the current administration.
I really did not want to go, I feel so scarred after the Proud Boys visits in 2020. But I could not look myself in the mirror and stand back anymore. So just like 1.0, all of these photos are available on Flickr in Creative Commons for media, influencers, and everyday people like me and you to use. Or just take and share any of these.
