hi you all! I am not dead if you where thinking that, just haven't had any time to upload stuff in a while.
Last friday night I got this assignment to photograph the police at work downtown Reykjavik. There has been allot of discussions here in Iceland about the violence that is taking place downtown every weekend. The police was trying to do something about it and had some extra men on watch. That night they arrested 40 people for fighting, braking bottles, peeing in public or showing the police disrespect. The disrespect was unbelievable and was the most shocking thing I witnessed.
This police barracks in Savannah, Georgia was opened in 1870 and is still in use today. The classic cars however are just for display.
Early on Sunday morning hundreds of members of the Greek police force raided an unofficial refugee camp in the Greek port of Patras as part of a nationwide 'clean sweep" operation. The camp which has been in existence for nearly a decade was home to hundreds of immigrants, mainly from Afghanistan hoping to sneak aboard trucks headed for Italy.

Using bulldozers the local authorities razed to the ground the shacks and huts that until recently housed an estimated 150 people. Several fires were reported as a result of the raid and according to official police sources 44 minors were detained along with 30 adults who will be held in a reception centre until they are deported. The raid has been criticised as "inhuman" and called a "pogrom" by the left wing SYRIZA party and the Greek Communist party.
The ruling New Democracy party has also announced that it will set up internment camps throughout the country to house those who do not have a legal right to stay in the country. It should be noted that at present Greece grants asylum to 0.1% of those who apply for it and has been repeatedly criticised by Amnesty International, other European governments and the UNHCR for its treatment of refugees and immigrants.
On the other hand the latest poll carried out by Public Issue found that 93% of those questioned thought that Greece could not take in any more immigrants and that 62% said that immigration is probably harming Greece.
Stung by his party's poor showing in the recent European elections prime minister Kostas Karamanlis has decided to get tough on the issue of immigration in order to avoid losing more support to the far right LAOS party. With the possibility of general elections in either September or March 2010 at the latest Karamanlis is hoping that a tough stance on crime and immigrants will help bring back voters who have deserted the party in droves after two years of corruption and influence peddling scandals involving several government ministers

Well - where is a Police Car when you need one ????
The Saturday Challenge is Bokeh Balls this week and for one reason or another getting out there and looking for them has not been easy . Therefore this silly idea came to me to have a police car come smashing through whole lot of blue lights in bokeh . I had a string of blue lights knocking about , so a shot of them out of focus was easy enough but have I seen a police car to get a shot of - no ?? Well I made this with a shot of police cars parked up about five or so years ago - so here is my imagination at work . However , the shot of the police cars is old so will not do for the challenge , so here it is just as a normal post today .
As it happens though , by chance for a shot for SSC did crop up last night - so all is not lost !!
Watch out !! Here comes the blues & twos !!

舊山街警察局是一棟歷史悠久的建築,在新加坡曾是警察局。
該建築被認為是世界上最好的建築之一。 它當時是現代的,到1933年才有了電動升降機。1934年竣工後,它是新加坡戰前最大的政府大樓,被視為現代摩天大樓。 該建築共有927個帶有彩色百葉窗的窗戶。
This is the unusual result of a couple of factors - the reflection of the flash off the policeman's vest, and the camera being moved from a well-chilled English school into the swamplike humidity that is Kyoto in Summer. By all accounts, it's not really a Good Picture, but it's odd enough that I decided to keep it.
