Grandma professionally told fortunes to earn extra cash but her hobby was to make beautiful , decorative objects with her hands and then gave them away to her friends as presents . A popular and well-liked figure among the village folks .
This image was captured in the 1980s using negative film and the print was recently scanned and photoshopped to make it presentable again .

Had an amazing experience having work done by an incredibly talented makeup artist / hair stylist.
Pic from last night’s trans support group. This is my “professional look”! I sent this pic to my wife and she responded by saying she thought “it’s the best I’ve ever looked”. Gotta love a vote of confidence like that!
There are so many great quotes I could have used for the title to this one that I just couldn't decide.
Anyways, a follow-up to my previous post where I listed off a boatload of Crime movies that I've recently watched and enjoyed, I mentioned that my favorite would get its own post.
And goddamn do I love this movie.
For those that aren't familiar, Leon: The Professional is a 1994 film directed by Luc Besson. It came about after positive reaction to a one-scene-wonder character called The Cleaner that appeared in another of his films Le Femme Nikita.
Leon: The Professional follows the titular Leon (Jean Reno), a simple-minded, lonely Italian Hitman in NY City and his day-to-day life, which is interrupted when he decides to harbor a twelve year old girl named Mathilda (Natalie Portman, literally twelve) after her parents and siblings are gunned down by corrupt DEA agents led by Stansfield (Gary Oldman). Mathilda, wanting revenge for her little brother's death, tries to hire Leon to train her in the art of "cleaning", which he initially refuses. Over the course of the film they develop a weird father/daughter relationship, and help each other get over their respective feelings of isolation.
Really, I can't go on enough about how much I dig this movie, it's one of, if not my number one all time favorite, running neck-and-neck with Terry Gilliam's Brazil (and probably The Blues Brothers. Heh.)
Anyways, I'm sure i'll be back to the typical Super Heroes/Sci-Fi shtick sometime soon, so stay tuned for that.
Until then, cheers folks!

I believe that wonder and appreciation for the world around us and nature are something that is cultivated in us when we are young by our parents. Whenever it was foggy outside my Mom would tell me to come look out the window at the fog monsters. I remember looking out the window and the feelings I would have seeing the world transformed into a foggy blur. Still to this day, whenever it is foggy outside, I hear her voice in my head and think to myself....ohhhh...fog monsters.
So here's to you Mom. Thank you for taking the time to share your appreciation with me for the little things...the special things in life. I have never forgotten then and much of those things you have shared with me have made me appreciate the wonder in the world around me when I go out shooting. You're the best! Clear your calendar Sunday because I am coming to Portland to take you out to dinner. Wherever you want to go. So make it a good choice! Happy Mothers Day Mom!

For those of you who like close ups, I think you will appreciate this image. It allows you to zoom in.
Taken on Friday, May 26, 2023, just in case you're wondering what I look like nowadays.
No photo shopping or Face App needed. I prefer a natural (albeit somewhat glamorous) look with un-retouched photos. So in other words, if you saw me at the mall, this is what you would see, minus the apron.

This black dress presents my most serious professional image.
Enough of that! It's the weekend. Yay!
This kinda reminded me of some weird Hobbit or Lord of the Rings type of scenario - Imagination is wonderful...

I'm a stay-at-home mom. Every now and then people say something really stupid around me that makes me feel unappreciated. The most recent example is a fun one. I was told about a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother who is now "trying to make something of her life." What?!? The fact she raised and educated her kids doesn't count? Now that she's getting a "real job" she's making something of her life? Pft...
I am not saying that stay-at-home moms are never appreciated in society. I've heard people talk like that, and I don't agree. I've also cringed at some things said about women who choose not to have kids or get married. And it's not just about motherhood. I've seen many different professions disparaged. People in retail have it bad when it comes to being belittled. And I've learned you won't find respect as a small town photographer either.
I guess what I am saying is that people need to be appreciated once in a while and that it hurts to be unappreciated. An elderly lady was ahead of me at the grocery checkout a few weeks ago. When it was time for her to pay she told the cashier that she was doing an excellent job and that she appreciated her. The cashier's face lit up with joy and energy, and that glow lasted as long as I was there. Just a little bit of appreciation goes a long way. :)
Oh my goodness, I'm rambling! lol I'll stop now. :)
Aire Valley Transport Group had its vintage bus running day on 9th October. One vehicle which did catch my eye was this Northern Counties Volvo Olympian now preserved by the Teeside 500 group. What a professional touch programming the blind for the event and the routes it would work - well done. Here 223 is seen entering Ilkley displaying "76 Ilkley via Addingham" making a somewhat unusual sight in the town.
