No. 1 - 5 Going to Gothenburg City.
From Stansted Airport
Flight no. FR964 at 07:00 on September 5th, 2007.
Glory.
when I prepared this to show you I did not enhance it atall so this must be what it would have looked like from outside the plane!
- in order to see this striking phenomena the Sun must be directly behind you, as it casts a shadow on to a layer of cloud. The glory, which looks like a series of rainbow rings around the shadow, is produced by cloud droplets reflecting, refracting and diffracting sunlight, although the exact optics are still not fully understood.
One of the easiest places to spot a glory is from that great cloudspotting location, the window of a plane. It can sometimes appear around the plane's shadow, cast on to a nearby layer of cloud or fog. When the cloud's some distance away the shadow is absent and you just see the coloured rings.

Street Photography Now Project Instruction #21
"Be aware of the way the camera compresses a three dimensional world into a two dimensional plane and use that to your advantage" - Nick Turpin
Twice I've walked around town in the rain lately but the people in my town were not being at all co-operative when it came to witty and clever 2D things happening (I blame half-term ;) ) so this will have to do. I dunno .. a dog last week .. a cat this week ..
PLEASE READ!
DEADLINE extended until February 1st!
The Message Project <3 is a collaborative interactive project!
So we started this stop-motion where the first person makes one of those can/cup phones and passes a positive message along. Another person, in a completely different place gets the message and passes it along.
Why the fake phone? It's supposed to represent that making a person happy and spreading a positive message is easier than we think.
So here's what you have to do:
1. Make a fake phone, using cans or cups and a cord. It's so easy to make, it takes minutes!
2. Make a sequence of photos (the more the merrier) of yourself or a friend, receiving a call from this fake phone, smiling, and then passing whatever you think the message was into the other cup/can. *
3. Be creative! shoot your stop-motion outdoors, indoor, up on a tree, anything! :)
4. You don't have to actually put the photos together yourself. You can just send** me the sequence of photos and I will put them together in the final video.
5. Spread the word! Write about this project on your photostream so we can have as many people participating as we can!
6. You have until after the holidays to send me the sequence of photos!
P.S. We already have a nice ending for this video, that will be attached in the end, as a closure.
Also, the final song won't be this one, since I imagine the video will be much longer and this song is too short. You are welcome to suggest a soundtrack for this project, preferably an instrumental one - no lyrics.
*Let me remind you that the cord and the cans must be coming from two different places, since you're passing the message along to another person, not to the same phone/yourself. So, it's actually as if there were two phones.
**You could email me the pictures, but I think it'll be a slow process.
You can put them in a .zip file or a .rar file and send me through email or sendspace!
my email: ***
Any doubts at all, contact me through Flickr mail!
Project aborted due to lack of participation from other people. :P
Que eu sou uma tia babona, todo mundo que me acompanha aqui já sabe né? E hoje a Julia começou a ir à escolinha e resolvi postar essas fotos dela.
Nesse dia eu tinha acabado de chegar de uma sessão de fotos e fui pro quarto deixar minhas coisas e ela estava lá brincando. Sentei no chão para ver as fotos na câmera e quando olho pra ela, várias caretas e sorrisos lindos pra mim. Coloquei a câmera no automático e comecei a registrar tudo isso.
P.S.: Mais nos comentários.

This is the fifth of five places we stopped at on this magnificent stretch of the Cornish coast line, looking towards Trevose Head lighthouse. The sun by this point was really starting to approach golden hour now, and combined with the blue sky, the scenes were getting quite warm in colour. I've always enjoyed shooting slide, and places like these really make it sing. I have to give huge credit to the Mamiya 645 Super (with metered prism finder) here, as I was going solely off the finder light meter, and it's really done a fine job with slide film. To give an idea of scale, because sadly no one was stood on the far cliff at the time, the bench in the very top right should provide some appreciation for how big these waves were.
Original text:
Recently, it's occurred to me that I wanted to try something a little different and step outside of my comfort zone... just a little. I've always had a love of the sea, and a fascination for waves (and indeed most things in nature which exhibit such complex behaviour), so I thought I'd give it a go. Instead of the classic landscapes, can I turn my hand (or rather eye) to shifting the focus towards waves as the main element in a scene, rather than a mountain, say. Their constant motion, which is typically so difficult to predict, forces a whole new way of looking at a scene. So this is the start of a short series of photographs taken either of waves directly, or where the wave is the key element in a scene. This first set, which I'll upload in relatively quick succession, was all taken in Cornwall, and all on a Mamiya 645 Super and a manual focus 105-210mm F/4.5 lens. The films used are Ektar 100, Portra 160, Portra 400 and Provia 100F.

Here is the completed project. See the beginning in the previous photo.
A neighbour was going to put in a few steps from her walkway down to her driveway... where she shortcuts to her car in the garage. Originally there were a couple of old wrecked flagstones in there somewhere. In the winter it is deadly..but, she still keeps using the short cut.
We talked her into doing something...she bought a few blocks.. and moved a bit of vegetation.. but, it was obvious she was never going to be able to do it herself. So, we put up our hands and took her to the local landscape supply place to buy something bigger. We found some slabs... got some crushed gravel in buckets... and, found out her back was really bad (plus she would never have been able to lift those things on a good day ) so we just started it one day while she was at work.
That jungle of thyme and pebbles was the worst part...it took a long time to rip it out and dig out some dirt and discovered plenty of decorator pebbles embedded in the dirt too.
Anyway... Greg and I have done a lot of rock work in our own yard..so he measured, levelled and heaved those huge slabs around ... we worked for 5 days ... several hours per day.
He did a LOT of levelling and pounding ... did I mention that he is pretty anal when it comes to doing things? Well, even outside he needs things to be within 1/16 of an inch..... arrghhh... I have to keep saying.... it's only outside ...It is the yard...you know... things like that.
So, our little neighbourhood project is complete..she is ecstatic and we are happy she will be safe during our long, cold, snowy and icy winter. This morning it is down to only +2C already... sign of things to come... and it's only September.

I sewed up a little knitting project bag out of some spare material that I had laying around. It ended up quite colourful.
I began (thinking about) this project about 12 years ago. The stack of landscape blocks will form the outer sides of the back and side fence. Then, a circle of larger landscape bricks will be place in the middle of a triangle formed with those flat blocks. Inside that circle I hope to get irises planted later this Fall.
The process needed to prepare this corner involves separating the soil from the landscape rocks, throwing away the weeds, grass, and other unneeded things. I use that frame made of 2x4 lumber with 1/2-inch (1.27 cm) wire mesh to separate the rocks from the soil. The soil will be piled in one place; the rocks will be taken to another area behind my garage until needed. The red bucket is used to gather the soil, the white bucket is for the rocks.
I'm using this as my 'Start" photo to give an idea how the transformation of this corner will take place. This project will not get done in a week or so. It will take some time, and that depends on the weather here. I'll try to get more photos as this project moves forward.
Another thing: I use cardboard as collection sheets as I can lift and carry them to where I need the soil or rocks, then dump them into their separate piles. Cardboard saves a lot of time and once you're done, you simply recycle them. Cost to me: Nothing, except sweat equity (and maybe some liquid refreshment, like Dr Pepper!)
And yes, I always wear gloves to protect my hands when working like this.
In early 2002, in a justified act of revenge, I stole my friend Andrea Zink's bra. You know, that fleshy, beige-coloured bra all girls own for under white or sheer tops.
I began a campaign to photograph as many friends, acquaintances and even family in the bra. Then I sent the photos to people I knew around the globe with as a postcard template which they printed out and mailed back to Andrea, convincing her that her bra was on a walkabout around the world—torturing her from each locale.
Andrea hated it. One day, figuring I must've been the cause of all this, she marched into my office and threw a particular postcard (#002 to be precise) at my head and yelled "Make it stop!"
I did not.

These house a Mediterranean and Jungle atmosphere and garden in the Cornish climate. Awesome place to visit.
Project 365 08/17/2017: My kid's and their grandpa's grownup toys (RC Planes) hanging in the garage and ready for the weekend.
It's the year 1944 and the war in France is closely coming to an end. Normandy has been liberated and american, canadian and british troops are on there way to free the rest of the country! Sending bombers and fighters first, the american's are fierce and strong in the attack. Germany obviously want's to keep ground and fight back hard.
Well here are some photo's of Project Aviation, where Stijn, Mats, Jurian and I have been working on.
Also don't forget to check the photo's on Stijn and Mats photostream.
Another shot from my projected portrait from today. I actually like this shot better but it doesn't have my user name on it like the other.
