A few days ago, the above art work appeared overnight on an outside wall of Reading Prison which has stood empty since it closed at the end of 2013. There was immediate speculation it was the work of the street artist Banksy whose identity has never been confirmed despite the fact his numerous works have appeared at various locations over a long period of years.
The paintings often form a social message and can be controversial. Reading Prison is very much a controversial place – it is owned by the Ministry of Justice who have been trying to dispose of it for the last 7 years. For them one of the problems is the property is designated a grade II listed building which means it cannot be demolished or substantially altered without prior consent from the Local Authority – Reading Borough Council. There have been calls for it to be used as a public amenity such as a theatre or arts facility and a deal to redevelop it has fallen through so in effect there has been little or no progress for 7 years.
Yesterday Banksy confirmed it was his art work although he did not shed any light on who the figure was supposed to be. Much of the local view is that it is a representation of Oscar Wilde, the Victorian actor, writer and poet who was incarcerated there from 1895 to 1897 – probably the prisons main claim to fame.
It is questionable as to whether the painting helps or hinders the current deadlock although it has provided some amusement for local residents in what is otherwise a depressing time!

These two kits were playing together and the kit that is standing seen the other kit from the den take off and sit on top of a big rock. The other kit grabbed it by the tail. Watching these kits play sure takes your mind off all the problems we are having with the Corona Virus.
Canon 6d + tamron 15-30mm 15mm ISO 6400 x f2.8 x 30s x 50 images panorama using my fish eye sort of panorama style. While it's 50 images - it's only really about 30 images. I had some problems with a new lens and just kept on taking. So quite a few redundant frames in this instance.
I went to Lake Dumbleyung - a salt lake in Western Australia to shoot the milky way. The water level was lower than expected so only took one of the lake itself (may process that one later). I found the thick mud to be an issue as clung to my legs and I sunk more than half a foot into the muddy surface. A bit problematic when you're carrying 2 tripods, camera and a heavy pack when scouting.
Around the lake - there are hundreds of dead trees clutching at the sky - so I visualised with the fisheye effect to have the image framed by them.
I had some stitching issues though - I had to re-stitch one of the frames manually as one of the arms of the milky way initially distorted more than I would like - and a small triangle around the edge had to be filled - I think I've finally worked out how to fix that.

Right after that you have to go down the collar...
Semi-trailers sometimes have 2 tractors...
And the carcasses at the bottom of the slope suggest that some have had some problems.
All this makes you wish you were on a well-maintained bus.

Cicko's first year on Earth, after being left stranded inside the shoebox near our house, approximately 2 days after being given birth.
It seems he is enjoying his first days of his life, which he really do. Even though he doesn't know where his mother is, or can't comprehend what the presence of mother brings, nor does he resent or blame anyone responsible for his shoebox thing, he is still happy little boy.
These were insightful times, watching him grow and learn about life, without someone to learn from, except couple of human beings, different from his kind.
His instincts, and how God have created him, were always on spot. No problems there: catching what cat is supposed to catch, running, playing, games, toys, friskiness, naughtiness, restlessness...
The only problem I am seeing is with the relationship with other cats, that come to our house from time to time. Cicko does not know how to handle that yet. He haven't had the chance to learn from anyone, and in the pressence of them, he does know how to make a stand... Usually, he rather leaves, or give his best sleeping spots to the temporary newcomers of his kind.
Also, when other cats are present, he is having a problem with eating... He needs peace to eat. He is constantly looking around while other csts are in viscinity... seems like he can't put his guard down.
He is almost one year old by now, and we are looking forward on his progress.
Not to mention all the medical trouble we had with him. On this particular day when this photo was taken, on this same spot, he was throwing up, at least 6-7 times, and his belly was inflated,his eyes like he's dying, face sad, and he was constantly finding place to hide, to sleep...like he was finding place to sleep forever. Eyes were telling us everything.
But tjen the sun came onto his life, amd we couldn't believe what a shift in the mood occured. My God, he became the happiest little lad in the timespace of half a day.
Happy birthday, Cicko.

Alors que le passage à niveau manuel précédant la gare de Collonges - Fontaines est en panne depuis quelques minutes, tous les trains qui franchissent la gare passent au ralenti pour éviter tout accident ou problème. L'occasion de faire de belles photos depuis cette passerelle juste après la gare de Collonges - Fontaines.
Ainsi, ce train infra assuré par une belle BB75000 jaune poussin arrive en provenance du Nord, et franchira d'ici quelques minutes la gare de Lyon Perrache. S'il avait été sur la première voie tout à droite, il aurait été orienté dans la direction de Lyon Part-Dieu. Hélas, je n'ai aucune idée en ce qui concerne sa destination finale.

Swara Lannock's tail lashed back and forth behind him slowly as he unknowingly drew that rough, pink tongue across his dark hued lips. Battered and nicked ears flicked at the voices that rose up from below, listening intently to what he could catch of the conversation as he continued to keep that unflinching stare of rust colored eyes fixed on Guin. He wondered for a moment about her reaction if she would spot him perched up here...he wasn't trying to hide any longer. Spotted fingers drifted to his belt again to pull out another small object, this time dropping it straight down below him where it would land with a dull crack. His head tilting to one side curiously.
Sebastian Ricks tilts his head. "They're the rooster crowing on top of the dungheap, bonita. Or they think they are. Makes them want to strut. Not surprised they're visiting the church. From what I know of the UAC, they don't like it when their playthings get away. Or forget their place." The soft clatter behind him makes him turn. He glances at the floor, then casually lifts his eyes to the balcony above. "Oh look, bonita," he drawls. "A furry cockroach."
Guinevere Fouroux's lips twist in a dry smile, rather enjoying the image of UAC soldiers as preening roosters... she only wishes they were so powerless. "Nothing but bullies," she mutters, but before she can say anything else something drops to the carpet behind him. Her eyes drop, brow furrowing, and she steps closer to it as she sees Bastian look up. Crouching, she reaches out with tentative fingers, then draws back sharply. "It's a bone," she whispers, then follows his gaze. Her breath catches. White... white and gray, and it's all she remembers. Everything and nothing. She stumbles back, back to her feet, eyes on the balcony. "I think... " She swallows, and blinks rapidly. "I think that's him... "
Sebastian Ricks steps past Guin. He rolls the bone toward him with his boot, then crouches with absent grace to pick it up. "Finger bone," he clarifies. It vanishes into his pocket as if it had never been. "The one who bit you?" he asks, cocking his head to eye the cat perched over their heads. With a cold, bright grin, he straightens and gives the cat a mocking wave. "Hey there, ese. Back for seconds?"
Swara Lannock's mouth drew into a wide wolfish grin as she looked up, two thick carnivorous fangs peeking out from beneath his upper lip, not the type of fangs you would expect on a neko, these were made distinctly big cat incisors. His tail swayed wildly, enough so that the tip would be seen swinging up from behind the low wall he perched on. It was apparent he gained far too much amusement from the woman's reaction. He watched with curious eyes as the finger bone was scooped up and deposited away like some trinket..his trinket to be exact. "You smell, delicious...ape" he murred in a playful, yet dangerous tone. The male's words didn't go unheard, he just chose to let them go unanswered for now.
Sebastian Ricks folds his arms over his chest in a flutter of black lace cuffs. "Eh, bonita, what are you gonna do? Like being chased down by a rabid dog, hey?" He watches the cat with a sly smile. "Just a dumb animal. Don't know no better."

L’architetto Paolo Portoghesi ha presentato al pubblico un’opera pittorica donata al Comune di Montefalco da Luigi Frappi, uno degli ultimi paesaggisti di valore viventi. Pochi se ne sono accorti, sebbene l’evento si collocasse in seno alla Settimana Enologica e coincidesse con un incontro di studio sul paesaggio, puntualmente disertato da imprenditori edili, architetti, geometri e amministratori locali, ma non da Lamberto Bottini, diligente assessore all’Ambiente e allo Sviluppo Sostenibile della Regione Umbria. Il degrado del territorio è un problema che coinvolge drammaticamente l’intero Paese. Per quanto riguarda la nostra regione mi hanno lasciato perplesso le benevole parole di Berlusconi pronunciate tra le selve di Melezzole, anche se queste hanno avuto il merito di promuovere attraverso i media la natura dell'Umbria, in particolare quella delle sue zone ancora incontaminate. In verità la situazione più a valle, dove briga la lobby del mattone, non è incoraggiante. Il territorio è qualcosa di diverso dalla semplice addizione di tutte le componenti visibili, ed esige un’accurata sottigliezza interpretativa per rivelare la sua vera dimensione. A Montefalco, Portoghesi ha riflettuto a lungo intorno alla necessità di comprendere le ragioni del paesaggio, prendendo spunto da un’antinomia dei valori mutuata dall’opera di Heidegger, secondo il quale l’epoca del Pensiero Meditante ha lasciato il posto a quella del Pensiero Calcolante. L’uomo del nostro tempo fugge davanti al Pensiero Meditante, che richiede uno sforzo particolare e come tale non può considerarsi immediato, né in grado di confrontarsi adeguatamente con le urgenze che la nostra epoca presenta. Così l’umanità, in balìa del Pensiero Calcolante, si mostra impreparata a comprendere il radicale mutamento del mondo che avviene sotto i nostri occhi. Uno dei criteri per misurare l’evoluzione raggiunta dalla civiltà è rappresentato, appunto, dall’indagine sulla qualità dell’architettura e sulle scelte urbanistiche adottate, che devono confrontarsi con il rispetto del paesaggio culturale; la sua manomissione si risolve, infatti, in una perdita d’identità e di memoria. La pittura di Frappi – e in particolare l’opera donata a Montefalco - riflette l’identità simbolica e culturale della regione. L’artista, nel proporci la sua Umbria, denuncia lo stravolgimento e il degrado di vedute millenarie ormai prive di sensibilità estetica e fisionomica, sempre meno capaci di far scattare la scintilla dell’attrazione e dunque dell’amore e del rispetto, ma anche della domanda turistica: la sola, in definitiva, ad aumentare il reddito delle popolazioni locali in modo diffuso e durevole. Chi si affaccia oggi dalla Ringhiera dell’Umbria fatica a individuare Trevi, Spello, Assisi, Bevagna, Campello e Cannara. La città di Foligno si è trasformata in un abitato incoerente, con la sua periferia caotica e accerchiante, senza identità alcuna. Nessuno pretende certo di tornare ai tempi in cui la Valle Umbra era quella affrescata dal Gozzoli nel celebre dipinto in cui Francesco parla agli uccelli; ma vale la pena chiedersi cosa rimarrà di questi luoghi tra venti o trent’anni, se non saremo in grado di darci strumenti normativi capaci di preservarci dall’arido dispotismo del Pensiero Calcolante – sempre a breve termine - e dalle operazioni di contabilità della distruzione. La sensazione che si avverte è quella di un generale spaesamento: di una perdita di luogo. Gli umbri - cui non è toccata in sorte la linea piatta del mare, né il profilo dissolto della Padania - non possono rinunciare ai capisaldi, ben piantati nello spazio simbolico delle loro valli. Hanno bisogno di ancorarsi a punti costantemente stabiliti, che gli appartengono dalla nascita, anzi, dal concepimento. Tutto questo sta scritto nell’opera geofilosofica di Frappi, rivelatrice del tormento creativo dell’artista, e insieme del disagio dell’uomo, che si sforza di riconoscere l’orientamento estetico dello spazio in cui vive e di coglierne l’espressività simbolica. Come Berlusconi, Frappi preferisce vedere le cose a modo suo: ignora volutamente la crisi dell’agricoltura tipica, l’aumento del traffico, la devastazione del verde, gli insediamenti sparsi. Evidentemente l’artista, che vive secondo una tentazione del bello, nutre antipatia per una certa umanità: quella che mal si concilia con lo spirito delle proprie opere, con la sua sensibilità al paesaggio. E così, a modo suo, Frappi compie una ridefinizione critica dell’identità culturale. Ma Berlusconi non è Frappi, e l’Umbria non è Arcore. Al Presidente del Consiglio, mancato ragazzo della Via Gluck, non sarà sfuggito, dal rifugio di Melezzole, che l’ubriacatura edilizia scardina – in Umbria forse più che altrove - il senso dei luoghi. Non sarà neanche sfuggito che il territorio è tempo lungo, sedimento, decantazione incompatibile con il mutamento repentino, senso comunitario, avvedutezza, pietas, adesione al genius loci; mentre le operazioni immobiliari - apprezzate dalla destra, ma non disdegnate a sinistra - stanno imponendo accelerazioni acriticamente asservite a un solo scopo: svuotare i paesi e a spargere abitati su quelle stesse valli che Frappi si ostina a dipingere e che il Pensiero Calcolante si compiace di distruggere, assecondando una nuova ondata di speculazione diffusa. Com’è possibile che si continui a costruire mentre nelle città italiane ci sono un numero smisurato di appartamenti vuoti? In questi giorni, cinque giovani creativi di Milano, hanno lanciato l'idea della spiaggia virtuale: una terapia antistress, con la prospettiva di realizzare centri nelle più grandi metropoli italiane ed europee, capaci di ricreare uno scenario virtuale a trecentosessanta gradi di pannelli che mostrano immagini continue di luoghi marini sempre diversi, attorno ad un'isola di sabbia vera, attrezzata con vasche di acqua salata dove potersi immergere accarezzati da brezze virtuali, rapiti da odori salmastri e rassicurati dal grido dei gabbiani. Siamo arrivati ai tentativi virtuali per sconfiggere lo stress, illudendoci di aver trascorso una settimana alle Maldive o a Skiatos. E pensare che l’’Umbria non avrebbe bisogno di tali scenari polisensoriali che mutano a ogni seduta, se solo ponesse maggiore alla difesa dei suoi paesaggi naturali. Che il presidente Berlusconi abbia voluto intendere questo con la sua gratificante esternazione ?

Lewis's blue flax - Linum lewisii - was collected on July 9, 1806 in Montana by Lewis and Clark on their great expedition west. It was named for Meriwether Lewis and is a native perennial wildflower that's about thumbnail in size.
Various native peoples used flax for cordage and string, as well as for mats, snowshoes, fishing nets and baskets. The blue flax plant also had medicinal uses and was employed as a poultice for swellings, as an infusion for eye problems and gastrointestinal distress and as a wash for the body and hair. Sacagawea's Shoshone people used flax in this way. Several native tribes of the upper Missouri River region used flax seed as food because of its nutritive value and flavor.
Had some problems with light on this set. Too hot one side and too cool the other and from the front etc. Never been an issue with the smaller figures. A bit later on I pulled the left hand light further and further away and pushed the right hand light closer which seemed to help. White clothing can be a pain to photograph!

One for the money, two for the show
I never was ready, so I watch you go
Sometimes you just don't know the answer
'Til someone's on their knees and asks you
"She would've made such a lovely bride
What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said
But you'll find the real thing instead
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred
And hold your hand while dancing
Never leave you standing
Crestfallen on the landing
