HSS everyone !!
Not knowing when the next wave is going to hit you, perhaps is your best chance to stay positive. The only way to survive is battling back even if you are feeling down.
Shooting with a GoPro Hero is a totally strange experience for me. Being an optical view finder guy, I have never gotten used to compose a shot with electronic view finders on my mobile phone, or even my Powershot S100. Now, imagine shooting in front of your subjects without using your hand, and instead, strapping and composing the camera with your head. You only get to see the results after pulling still frames out of a long video recording. This is weird and totally out of my comfort zone, but at the same time I feel this as another challenge to get something unique and fun.
(Tunisie) - Les îles Kerkennah ont longtemps été un petit paradis dont les habitants vivaient de la pêche et du tourisme. Mais depuis 2018 le paradis est devenu l’une des portes de l’enfer. Les migrants qui souhaitent gagner l’Italie, utilisent les ports du petit archipel tunisien pour rejoindre l’île de Lampedusa en Italie. Certains pêcheurs locaux se sont reconvertis en passeurs, activité lucrative dans un pays cruellement touché par le chômage.
D’autres, qui pour des questions morales, préfèrent continuer à gagner leur vie avec la pêche, remontent de nombreux cadavres dans leurs filets les lendemains de tempêtes.
La photo ci-dessus a été prise en 1996 dans le port de Kraten époque bénie où seuls les poissons se prenaient dans les filets.

The port of Kraten has become the gate of hell
(Tunisia) - The Kerkennah Islands have long been a small paradise whose inhabitants lived off fishing and tourism. But since 2018 paradise has become one of the gates of hell. Migrants wishing to reach Italy use the ports of the small Tunisian archipelago to reach the island of Lampedusa in Italy. Some local fishermen have become smugglers, a lucrative activity in a country severely affected by unemployment.
Others, who for moral reasons, prefer to continue to earn their living with fishing, bring up many corpses in their nets the day after storms.
The photo above was taken in 1996 in the port of Kraten, a blessed time when only the fish were caught in the nets.

You just can't live that negative way. You know what I mean. Make way for the positive day. Cause it's a new day... -

The universe does not know whether the vibration that you're offering is because of something you're observing or something you're remembering or something that you are imagining. It just receives the vibration and answers it with things that match it.” -
Abraham Hicks
The words we choose to use when we communicate with each other, carry vibrations. The word ‘war’ carries a whole different vibration than the word ‘peace’. The words we use are showing how we think and how we feel. The careful selection of words, helps to elevate our consciousness and resonate in higher frequencies. -

A no has a different frequency than a yes, and a maybe is all vibration, oscillating between no and yes. My favorite answers have no movement.” -

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
Here today sick and frail it was all i could do to not let him sail
away
in the wind
thin beyond thin
bone and fur was all he had been
for who knows how long
he came to me to survive
i tried
once i caught him for a hospital visit
but he bit me hard to the bone i feared
and my visit was for six shots all in the rear
so i fed him and kept him warm in winter
the best i could
now i fear he is gone
not come back for more
and so he is finally at home
with a hot meal and a good tale to tell
of life and hardship with a cat tale to sell
while hunting for another photo in my vast store of "stuff", I ran into the photo on the left. I don't know how, or when, or why, but I thought I'd to invert and see what was there. It's definitely me, I must have been working on making negatives at the time.
one of life's mysteries.
on the right is the inversion.
I tried searching on my stream, but it was quite a task. dunno whether I've used this photo before or not.
ah, I did find a version here from Sept 2016. I was working on oiled paper negatives.
**tonight I donated to Razom for Ukraine and World Central Kitchen.
please don't forget Ukraine. they still need food, clothing, and medical supplies.
NO MORE WAR! enough....
the strangest thing about a hole is the edge.
If a hole is plugged, where is it?
And: and why are there no half holes ??
The first Monday of October is World Day of Bullying Prevention. This happens in schools, online, and even here on Flickr and SL. This post was inspired by Dax's song Joker.
So what's your excuse, what helps you sleep?
You leave a negative comment
Not knowing that what you sow, you will reap
I bet you smile when you post, thinking you're hurting me
But you see the way the brain works
You become what you speak
I need peace, but y'all can't offer that
I held my ground, I didn't sell my soul
I said f the fame, y'all can't take that offer back
F a shelf, you can't take me off the rack
All the fame is not worth a heart attack
You're insane, you're in pain, I can tell by what you're saying
But my bad, I forgot you were fragile
I forgot someone who doesn't even know me told you I'm an ahole
I forgot that I'm a villain
I forgot that I've always spread positivity, but you think I didn't
I forgot that hatred stems from people who hate their own existence
I forgot I'm better off alone
I forgot I care for everyone's happiness, but forget about my own
I forget I spend every waking second on my phone-
Come join my circus, I'm recruiting
I'm taking everyone who passes judgement
Bitch, that's including everyone who thinks it's so amusing
To put me down while I'm pursuing
The keyboard warriors that live online
Behind a screen that's just an illusion
Come, come, come, come join my circus
Tropical storm Typeo brought it.... a new perspective on an old craft. I thank you my friend!
