SCALA Freakshow - Carnivale 2016
I love books. I've read so many that it's almost impossible to pick just one favourite, but for today I've chosen a novel I recently read and absolutely loved, called "All the Light We Cannot See" by Anthony Doerr. It's an achingly beautiful historical tale set in France and Germany during WWII, and won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 2015.

Its heyday was in the 1920s, when together with Potsdamer Platz it was at the heart of Berlin's nightlife, inspiring the 1929 novel Berlin Alexanderplatz and the two films based thereon, Piel Jutzi's 1931 film and Rainer Werner Fassbinder's 15½ hour second adaptation, released in 1980. About 1920 the city's authorities started a rearrangement of the increasing traffic flows laying out a roundabout, accompanied by two buildings along the Stadtbahn viaduct, Alexanderhaus and Berolinahaus finished in 1932 according to plans designed by Peter Behrens.
I love to shoot in fog.
The silhouettes, shadows and hints of light.. It's like living a mystery novel and I'm the detective.
That's about as exciting as it gets for me folks.. And I'm sticking with it.
some moments tell a whole novel ... and only rarely ... very rarely indeed ... you can manage to capture such a moment ... because this capturing all too often destroys these moments ...
Southern OBX near Lands End. It's just after daybreak. a truck with surf fishermen are making their ways up the beach. Thanks for the look, comments and faves. Have a swell week.
No I have not bought a drone camera ,to take this shot I climbed to the top of the very steep twelfth century bell tower of St Marys church in Rye to take a shot of the town
Rye is a small town in East Sussex It is two miles from the sea at the confluence of three rivers: the Rother, the Tillingham and the Brede. In medieval times, as an important member of the Cinque Ports confederation, it was almost entirely surrounded by the sea. It has one of the best preserved medieval street systems in England and as a consequence receives many visitors
It also has strong literary links if you look at the image and follow the line of the roof apex below you will see a small street at the end of the street is Lamb House. Henry James the great American novelist lived in the house from 1897 to 1914. He sold it to E.F. Benson the English novelist whose series of books “Mapp and Lucia” are largely based in Rye which Benson called Tilling . If you have not read anything by E.F. Benson he is worth a look. Written in the late nineteen twenties and early thirties the six novels in the Mapp and Lucia series are delightfully written comic novels that capture so well English snobbery and pretension . In particular the constant battle for supremacy between Miss Mapp and Lucia Lucus. They were filmed in Rye in 1985 on Channel 4, its a box set I regularly return too
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO

Autumn
Perfect weather to be inside looking out. Gonna read a book and stare out the window for a while...
Tried my best to nail down this Common Blue aberration, but to no avail. Neither the county recorder nor Butterfly Conservation have come back with an answer, (well that's not true, Butterfly conservation said it's a Common blue... I ask you)...
So who knows... I'll get back to you on this one...

Found it a little difficult to rationalise my favourite read! Decided to opt for one of my fairly recent favourites, Hugh Howeys excellent dystopian future ‘Wool’. Only originally written as a short story, the author extended the story into a novel then a trilogy of books. Apparently optioned as a movie that hasn’t been filmed yet!
Posting early as I’m back to work this week, will catch up later!
HMM!
"Chapter 1
You see, I had this space suit. How it happened was this way:
“Dad,” I said, “I want to go to the Moon.”
“Certainly,” he answered and looked back at his book. It was Jerome K. Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat, which he must know by heart. I said, “Dad, please! I’m serious.”
This time he closed the book on a finger and said gently, “I said it was all right. Go ahead.” “Yes … but how?”
“Eh?” He looked mildly surprised. “Why, that’s your problem, Clifford.”
Dad was like that. The time I told him I wanted to buy a bicycle he said, “Go right ahead,” without even glancing up-so I had gone to the money basket in the dining room, intending to take enough for a bicycle. But there had been only eleven dollars and forty-three cents in it, so about a thousand miles of mowed lawns later I bought a bicycle. I hadn’t said anymore to Dad because if money wasn’t in the basket, it wasn’t anywhere; "

The sun was waning as the lights came on at this impressive Provincial government center.
"The purpose of the buildings is to serve as the seat of B.C.’s provincial government. It is here that important decisions are made regarding the province on matters such as health, education, transportation, and housing.
The Parliament Buildings are located on the banks of the Inner Harbour in British Columbia’s capital city, Victoria. As one of the dominant features of the downtown core, B.C.’s government buildings are one of Victoria’s must-see sights, teeming with history and culture. They reside on 12.5 acres of lush property. The Empress Hotel is nearby.
Staying in the area until sun sets is highly recommended. The Parliament Buildings will eventually light up with approximately 3500 energy efficient lightbulbs, highlighting the striking outline of the structure, and making for a great photo opportunity.
Incredibly, the original idea for the lightbulbs was first brought to life in 1897 when the buildings were first completed. This was a time when electricity was still a novel phenomenon. While fewer than there are today, the lightbulbs were strung in honour of Queen Victoria’s diamond jubilee, as they were supposed to look like diamonds shining brightly in the darkness. The idea was brought back in the 1960s, and since then, the buildings have been lit every single evening at dusk." victoriabc.ca
Her sweet innocence turns to desire and hope when she notices from her keepers tower a dark mysterious man in the woods.
He looks up to her and offers a warm smile each night before passing then continues on his way down the dirt road without sound.
Will she go unnoticed as she slips into the darkness and mist searching for the stranger?

Seeing lots of these Katiannid springtails in our Staffordshire garden at the moment. They exhibit a range of pleasing colour variations. As far as I know, they are still not formally classified.
I've been an avid reader before I even started school. I was taught to read at home by my mother and taught in the Welsh Language ( later taught to read in English at the age of 7 at school)
I found it difficult to choose a favourite novel, being a bit of a bookworm, so I based my choice of book on one my mother gave me to read at the age of 14 - The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. As a young adult it introduced me to American Literature, opened my eyes to American History, and in later years the poetry. The humourist in me though couldn't resist a shot like this :-)
I'm sure I'm not the only one who would have thought of choosing this, The Catcher in the Rye is one of those iconic, touching novels, that I have revisited over the years having first read it in my teens. The title of the novel is down from the central character's, Caulfield's, misinterpretation of line from a Robbie Burns poem, and he imagines himself as the 'Catcher'. I have depicted him here as the Jack of Hearts.

Quando si comincia a piangere, vuol dire che ormai si cerca di ingannare il prossimo. In quel momento, il corso degli eventi si è già concluso. Non credo alle lacrime. Il dolore è asciutto e muto. Da "La Donna Giusta" Sandor Marai
"The novel that talks (also) about my life"
Even though this is a childrens book it is a special book for me.

As promised, here is the view of the wild horse valley once you get away from the stream. This was shot about a half mile (and 450 photos) away from my previous post. The further away from the meadow, the dryer it gets. Because this used to be a cattle ranch, and there is a very distinct line where the sage ends and the meadow begins, I have to wonder if the meadow is man made. The view of the White Mountains, with the rain catching the last rays of light gives me the same "old west" feeling as the other photo. I hope it does the same for you.

A shoot from a few years back. I never edited most of these images as they were shot waiting for the light to soften outdoors for the "real" shoot.
