Un déjeûner dans l'herbe commence toujours par un appel pour se rencarder sur le lieu, la date et l'heure.
En tout cas, c'est ainsi que vont les choses, au XXIe siècle.
Après bon.
N'est pas Manet qui veut, certes certes.
Mais Manet aurait-il pu faire une photo numérique d'un appel téléphonique sur l'herbe ? Hein ? Non. Bon. Ah !
Chacun ses manies et ses limites !
madrid. a quiet corner. the man sits behind the glass, phone pressed to his ear. his eyes hold years, his scarf rests softly on his coat. reflections dance, layering the world outside onto his moment inside. a cane leans close, a quiet witness to his life. it’s a simple scene, framed in warmth, yet it speaks of time, solitude, and connection.

Imperfect focus kept me from posting this shot but some added contrast and grain to create some kind of 'artsy' look can salvage an image like this. I hope!
I was supposed to find out today where I may be living for the next 6-24 months but there are no emergency temporary housing options available today. I have been told to try again on Monday. This does not fill me with confidence with only 7 days to go before I am to leave this house.
Anyone else finding Flickr intolerable today? Slow and failed image loading? Comments not loading? I'm certain it's not my connection here at 270Mbps.
I hope that you all have a wonderful weekend of photography my Flickr friends. Stay safe and keep your shutters firing.
Not often do your run across a person in a telephone booth anymore.
Pay phones have become a thing of our past.

A special thanks to all my Flickr friends and visitors, for taking the time to view and acknowledge my photography.
I would also, like to extend my thanks, to all those who place my images in their beautiful galleries, or use my images for their covers.
Additionally, I am truly humbled to receive so many thoughtful and generous testimonies. I cannot express how deeply touched and honoured I am, to find such caring and beautifully written words left on my behalf.
Happy Clicks

something changes in a conversation. you can always tell. the voice on the other end says something and the face responds before the mind can catch up. the eyes widen. the hand moves to the chest. for a moment the whole city disappears - the cold ledge, the passing strangers, the afternoon light. there is only the voice and what it carries. news travels through phones like electricity through wire. instant. unstoppable. she will remember this corner, this wall, this exact moment. even if she tries to forget.

Please accept my apologies for any Captain Sensible earworm with the title of my shot. Enjoy!
A street scene with nothing at stake, a testimony of a moment, of two strands of life.
One in movement and action, already in the next moment, in a hurry to get to the next few seconds that will happen anyway.
The other, more contemplative and who ends up seeing me, but without really doing so.

I thought these things were for selfies and social networking. It now transpires that you can actually make phonecalls with them. Take my word for it, I heard this man speak, and someone answered him.
An office Building near the Opera of Dijon/France. A person making a phonecall within these geometric forms just catched my eye.
With the loss of another friend I'm beginning to feel like the "last one standing". Yesterday there was a phonecall to tell me that yet another friend had died.
In the last three years, nine of my friends and my daughter have died and the feeling of loneliness is becoming tangible. They are all going on before me and I don't like this feeling of being left behind. I'm lucky to have other friends as well but I don't want to lose them too. A number of them have been older than me, just by chance, so their departure is not so surprising but each one leaves my world shrinking and takes a piece of my heart with them.
This world can be a hard place and friends and family shield and protect us from it, as we do for them. Their value goes far beyond any material things. You can have all the money in the world but without friends you really have nothing.
CS Lewis said, "No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear." How true that is..
It was a bad day yesterday, I came back from watching Evie in a play doing her part so well and looking just beautiful. I felt an overwhelming sadness in thinking how much Clare (her mother) would have loved to see that too and how much she's missed out on. She, having died, won't realise that of course - but I do.
I know that many people think that death is a natural process and in this world it's something we can't avoid, so in that case it is.
But it doesn't feel right does it??
Believe me there's nothing "natural" about watching your child die a long, slow death or losing those friends around you. It feels very wrong to me.
And the pain of loss is every bit as bad for a believer as a non believer, there's no immunity or "anaesthetic" for it.
"The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." 1 Corinthians ch 15 v 26
I do believe that what the Bible teaches is true, death is an enemy - but that one day in the future, death will be defeated and we shall be reunited once more. We are eternal beings living temporarily in this physical world, this is not our real home. You might not agree with me, but that's ok.
"He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them; he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away."
Revelation 21 v 1 - 4
Christmas is in less than two months. How are you going to spend this Christmas? How do you want to? Today I'm going to watch this film once again and then later make some phonecalls. :) ......Alan Rickman is gooooorrgeous!! I think he actually looks like Umberto in 20 years! :P
