You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.

Weeds won't give up. No matter how many times, and how often I pull them out, they keep growing again, especially as I don't want to use any chemicals. Well, at least weeding is different from school work - you see the fruits of your labour straight away. I guess I am as persistent as the weeds!

This wall is constantly being tagged and constantly being painted over, but lately the building has only painted over the tag itself, so it's still quite visible.

They flash on and off at high speed, so when waved about produce a message.
This new version has a little switch on the breadboard, when pressed it flashes the message once. This allows me to just have the message go by on the correct swing direction, and also makes it a LOT easier to get a good photograph.
I'm looking at using an accelerometer to do the same, but it would be able to automatically detect direction and speed and hopefully compensate to get a 'perfect' display.

The exhibition 'Weightlessness' gathers a series of experimental, photographic and cinematographic works by Luce Moreau, realized with the help of an astronomical tripod, whose equatorial mount proposes a weightless point of view on the terrestrial landscapes, day and night. Relationships are created between the spectator, the technological tools, and the celestial objects filmed, whether they are the stars, the Sun or our own planet, dragging us along in its movement.
The eye of the camera protects itself from the overflow of sunlight in 'Pulsar', provoking the analogical retinal persistence of the 'Holes' landscapes; 'Volta' takes us on a nocturnal journey in weightlessness and we understand, through the jerks of the mechanical painting 'Paysage Provençal', that we sometimes have to invert the points of view in order to feel the cosmic and technological forces at work in our daily life.
Born in 1982 in Paris, France, LUCE MOREAU is a photographer and artist based in Marseille. She is the co-founder of OTTO-Prod, a structure dedicated to art production, artist-in-residence and exhibition programme between France and Slovenia, since 2006.

This photo was taken in the early morning on March 24th of 2013.
While I was holding umbrella and walking by the West Lake, I saw this interesting scene a few steps in front of me. So I clicked...
I did not stay long enough, so it is hard for me to tell if he was doing regular and routine exercise or just randomly doing stretching.
One way or another doesn't affect how interesting and cute within this image. It is also cute to catch those elder people holding umbrella and chatting with each other in a distance.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men of talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
- Calvin Coolidge
Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.
