I love the color
For my photography club assignment, we are to do photojournalism in three photos, one 8X10 and two 4X6. He said most photojournalist work in black and white. so I don't know if I wll be able to use this series, color is part of this.
In a similar vein to my previous post, in retrospect I regret not giving this girl any currency for her effort in rowing out to our boat on Tonle Sap lake, Cambodia, in a ... tub?
We were warned by our tour guide not to give money and even though we heeded that advice, sure enough we were soon approached by other craft bearing small children and snakes. It is nevertheless difficult to resist the pleas of a young child for "dollar, dollar".
If I had this time again, I would prefer to ignore the guide's advice and pay the dollar(s), rather than feel guilty for the rest of my life that I didn't.

Photography’s new conscience
I have been singing praises about the Iphone virtues as a visual creativity tool for a long time now, but can the Iphone be useful in reportage of current events too?

Yes, 9.72s!! I will always remember this guy’s name: Usain Bolt from Jamaica – just like a lightning bolt, 21 years old, the 5th time in a race and he broke the men’s 100m world record… I watched the whole race live at the Icahn Stadium in the Reebok Randall’s Island Grand Prix meet. It was breathtaking… in fact, he got Tyson Gay (9.85s) chasing the whole way, read here.
I and several friends of mine were watching the whole tournament especially to see the world champion and Olympic gold medalist Liu Xiang to compete in the Men’s 110m hurdle. But it turned out that Xiang mildly hurt his hamstring during practice and therefore couldn’t race just to be conservative for the coming Olympics … he came and said sorry to all the fans though :) It was late at night. Just when we were about to leave, someone said oh let’s see the last race - the Men’s 100m. And of course we stayed and were expecting Tyson Gay to put up yet another amazing performance. But now you know what happened… I am glad that I wasn’t trying to shoot photos in the race otherwise I would miss seeing the most amazing 100m race in my life. I was standing in the middle of the home stretch on the audience stand. There were 2 false starts before they finally got a clean one… when the runners passed my location, Usain Bolt was 1.5 yard ahead of Tyson Gay and both seemed to be in the same pace but we then saw Mr. Bolt hit the finish line first. I was just about to talk, one of my friends yelled at us – look at this, 9.71. He broke the world record!!! (they later adjusted it to 9.72 adding the wind speed) Oh yes, I knew that Tyson would not run slow but it was this guy who ran really fast… just amazing! Then he walked the whole lap and came around to the home stretch again... that's when I took this photo. There were thousands of Jamaican fans chanting and he waved to them, may not be realizing how excited everybody was…
Oh btw, it was a nice Saturday evening, loved it! I watched the amazing performances by Veronica Campbell-Brown (my all-time favorite :)) (10.91s) in the Women’s 100m, Wallace Spearmon’s 20.07s in 200m and Xavier Carter’s 44.70s in the Men’s 400m. Really nice races! And, Sanya Richards was signing autographs and taking photos with fans at the end :)
Few places have ever shattered my expectations like Nicaragua. From some of the Caribbean's most stunning island paradises to laid-back colonial towns, thick, mysterious jungles and bustling metro centers, Nicaragua offers a taste of something exciting for everyone.
Thanks to the Nicaragua Tourism Board and my friends at Murphy O'Brien Public Relations for putting together a brilliant trip. www.murphyobrien.com

this fire broke out at an old mill at 2am...no one was hurt but the flames lit the morning sky for hours....
In a city where there is little private space, someone has created a floating patio (I’ll use patio as the English description)
Seating area, conservatory and a wood burner, near (on) the river, what a great idea!

This was the recent anti lockdown protest on Saturday. It was reported about twenty people were arrested including Piers Corbyn, Jeremy’s brother.
There were about a dozen of police mounted horses, 15-20 police vans and approximately 200 police officers handling a small group of protesters.
As I was about to call it a day suddenly there was a commotion. Police officers rushed to the scene from all corners. This was wrestling with police officers on the ground shouting in pain. Four police officers held him to the ground. There were about a dozen officers forming a couple of rings including a police mounted horse.
This man was held down for sometime before he was carried away which I will post the photo later.
The protesters and people who were enjoying the park at Speakers’ Corner were dispersed. This is actually a place for people to air their views. Perhaps, it has hit the nerve somewhere.....🤔💭
Thank you for viewing. If you like please fav and leave a nice comment. Hope to see you here again. Have a wonderful day 😊
