I've thrown away lots of my old diaries - you never know who might get their hands on them. But I have kept a few notes on the good old days.

This little pocket could be made to fit just about anything...a post-it note pad, pack of gum, small square of chocolate. The possibilities are endless!
Have fun!

One important aspect of Readernaut is the ability to create "notes" on a particular book. Notes can be anything from a review or character analysis to a quote or simple comment.
Designing the form and functionality for Notes has been challenging because it needs to be very flexible and adaptive to peoples habits and practices.

The Canon AE-1 can do shutter-priority auto exposure (hence the name). To activate it, you have to set your lens' aperture to "A".
I will try to remember that the next time I fiddle around with the aperture ring. Hopefully, that will be before I take a couple of pictures with the camera set to whatever was the last position of the ring before I forgot about it.
I'm curious how the handful of pictures I took that way will come out. Maybe I'm lucky, but I doubt it. A pity as the Kodak Portra 400 I loaded is way too expensive for fooling around.

***************************************
On Nov 6, 2009 a group of roughly 150 members of the NYC Digital Photography Meetup Group (which comprises some 2,556 members, according to its website) assembled at the southeast corner of New York's Central Park for a "meetup" that consisted of a walk through Central Park to capture the fall foliage. A few people knew each other from previous meetups, but most of us were there for the first time, and knew only that we were in the midst of a lot of people with "serious" cameras. Introductions were made, hands were shaken, cameras were compared, but with rare exceptions, names were quickly forgotten -- except for lyman91, who served as the organizer for the afternoon's activities. After all, it wasn't a college mixer; we were there to get some nice photographs...
Once we got started, we walked past the pond in the southeast corner of the park, up to a picturesque bridge, and then along the southern edge of the park until we reached another picturesque bridge by the southwest corner of the park. From there, we ventured north, past Tavern on the Green, past the Sheep Meadow, up to the 72nd Street entrance (where many photos were dutifully snapped of Strawberry Fields, and the Dakota apartment building where John Lennon lived at the time of his death). We then walked around parts of the boat pond, and a little further north into the Ramble ... at which point, the late-afternoon shadows were dark enough that I decided to call it a day and head on home.
As someone observed early in the walk, "fall foliage" in New York City is not the same as it is up in Vermont and New Hampshire. There are no fiery reds, no mountainsides of bright orange trees. Our trees are more subdued: there were a few bright yellow ones (don't ask me what kind they were; I have no idea), but most of the trees were "rust-colored" at best.
Still, it was a pleasant walk; the temperature was a little cool, but the skies were a brilliant blue, and there wasn't a cloud to be seen. I took fewer photos than I would have expected -- only about 300 -- and I'll upload the "keepers" throughout the week, as I edit them and put them in reasonable shape... and I'll look forward to another photo meetup sometime in the future. Next time, hopefully I will remember a few names...
Everything will work out in the end.
Try not to worry so much.
It's not as bad as it seems.
This is just one part of your life.
Keep on going.
Don't let anyone bring you down.
Do what makes you happy.
The sun follows the rain.
Every cloud has a silver lining.
It's not as hard as you think.
Just do it.
Let it go.
Worry less.
Smile more.
St. Peter and Paul's church, Athlone, completed in 1937. Designed by Richard King, of Harry Clarke Studios, Dublin after Harry Clarke's death.
Jesus is shown breaking bread at the last Supper. The theme is Jesus, the Eucharist and scenes and saints associated with the Eucharist.
The notes below are linked to photos of the relevant detail in the window. Some of the notes here refer to Church of Saints Peter and Paul Athlone: An Illustrated History and Guide by Patrick Murray.
Notes
1. This is Pius X, with the 1910 decree on the age children receive first holy communion: Quam Singulari Sacra Tridentina.
2. Moses & Co. gathering Manna in the desert. Scouts carrying huge bunches of grapes from the Promised Land appear in the background.
3. St. Gertrude. Ark of the Divinity.
4. Moses striking the rock at Emmaus.
5. Paschal Baylon, says Murray.
6. The Wedding feast at Cana. Water into wine. Conversio.
7. St. Tarcisius
8. Mane Nobiscum is from Luke 24:29, when disciples on the road to Emmaus meet the risen Jesus.
9.Thoma Bene Scripsisti de me is Thomas Aquinas being addressed by Jesus while at prayer.
10. Ecce Cor, Latin for Behold the Heart, with a traditional image of the Sacred Heart, with thorns, flames and a cross.
11. Sancti Venite Christi Corpus Sumite is a hymn attributed to St. Sechnall, St. Patrick's nephew.
12. An image of the church itself, with Jesus on a hill, and a hen with chicks. Two saints - Peter and Paul, presumably - look over his shoulder. Beneath is written Quoties Volui
a reference to Luke 13:34, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings.
13. Saint Julianna holding a martyr's palm. Icons of her with a martyr's palm can be found with Google.
14. The miracle of the loaves and fishes. Multiplicatio
15. Murray IDs this as John Eudes, with his Sacred Heart.
16. Longinus jabs the crucified Jesus with his spear.
17. Saint Margaret Mary Alocoque, a 17th century nun devoted to the Sacred Heart.
18. Eating the Paschal Lamb before leaving Egypt.
19. Matt Talbot in shabby modern clothes holds a scroll saying "Fast Friends". I don't know why. Could it be a reference to this quote from AA cofounder Bob W. (from 1939, years after Talbot's death)? : We commenced to make many fast friends and a fellowship has grown up among us of which it is a wonderful thing to feel a part of.
Note the ends of the chains hanging from his trousers, which he was wearing under his clothes when he died.
20-21: Michael and Gabriel carry a sword and a lily, respectively.
22. Exentera Cor Piscis, Tobit 6, disembowel the heart of the fish. The image is Tobiah walking with the angel Raphael. This image is very similar to Botticini's "The Three Archangels With Tobias" from 1467.
23. Beneath Christ's feet is says Hoc est Corpus Meum, This is my Body.
24. Grape Vines grow at the bottom of the window.
25. Harry Clarke Stained Glass Ltd.

If I wrote a note to God
I would speak whats in my soul
I'd ask for all the hate to be swept away,
For love to overflow
If I wrote a note to God
I'd pour my heart out on each page
I'd ask for war to end
For peace to mend this world
I'd say, I'd say, I'd say
Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is over due
And it looks like we haven't got a clue
Need some help from you
Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin wrong
On this road we're on
If I wrote a note to God
I would say what on my mind
I'd ask for wisdom to let compassion rule this world
Until these times
If I wrote a note to God
I'd say please help us find our way
End all the bitterness, put some tenderness in our hearts...

there was this russian girl was lounging in front of me at the beach. i noticed her at times scribbling something in a piece of paper. when she wanted to think of what to write next in the note she always folded it and reclined back to think. her right hand always sort of rested to the top right side of the beach chair holding the note. this happened a couple of times till i decided to shoot it...

Yes let's meet autumn as our mid-autumn festival is coming! Things do converge mysteriously with or without you knowing or seeing, finding the connections is no big achievement but brings small pleasures to our lives.
I was in Seoul 2 weeks ago meeting Mr. Nam who's company Appree just launched "Leaf-it" and already shipped to Japan's Marcs International for distribution. The leaf post-it comes in 8 different types, each with various sizes and colors of leaves. I hope they are coming to our stores soon.
Two days ago I received a Mackinaw Autumn package from Field Notes, another hint of autumn coming, in colors I'm so very in love with. I regret that I missed their summer collection (Butcher Orange, Butcher Blue, Grass Stain Green). Hmmm.... so Tradio Nature just came to me, Leaf-it and Mackinaw Autumn are both on my desk now, they are all here to set something in motion, the welcoming of our 3,000 years old tradition, mid-autumn festival.
Tasty moon cakes await us, beautiful lanterns hanging all over the places, family gathering dinner and Chiu Chau tea ceremony at home..... such a pleasant anticipation. I particularly like what the shops do on Queen's Road West, about 5-6 stores normally selling incense for worship now hang hundreds of lanterns so beautifully which lighten up the streets. I was there with family on Sunday night, people were there lingering in such warm atmosphere. Tomorrow we will definitely go the park with our lanterns.
PS. My son told me something funny this evening: "God has no time to talk to us, because he has to make up some homework for us, so God is very difficult and we have to thank Him". Where did he get the ideas?
