Took the cam with me for a stroll around downtown Haugesund today, looking for lines that compliment each other.
I thought my daughter’s long hair was beautiful when I saw it as it dried after washing (she usually wears it up). I was amused that Abigail and Gideon were discussing how long Abigail’s hair is—it goes past her waist—and they even got a ruler to measure and found out she only had 9 inches for her hair to grow until it reached her knees.
Day 9
____________________________
As a way to cope with circumstances beyond my control, survive and work to keep fighting for life I decided to try to take at least one photo (or more) each day. I call this “a photo (or more) a day.” Practicing this form of therapeutic photography helps me work to focus on the present moment, gives me something familiar and enjoyable to focus on as I use photography skills that have become like second-nature to me and being able to view the images I capture helps me recall what I was thinking, feeling and noticing at the moment when I created the photos. More of the photos from this series can be seen on my Instagram account
I may not always have the energy, time or capacity to share photos from this series—especially with the very challenging circumstances my family and I are experiencing—and will do my best to continue taking a photo (or more) a day even if I’m not able to share.

This would be me, in the flesh.
(Looking back on this just a year and a half later, I look so scrawny--a pubescent turtle. Testosterone has been good to me since then!)

For those who wonder.. yes, yes I'm running out of my holiday photo's of Laos. My holiday seems already a long time ago. Luang Prabang, does it still exist, or was it just a hazy dream I conjured in my imagination? Luang Prabang, the royal capital of the former kingdom of Laos, is a lovely quiet town. located between the two lazy rivers, the Mekong and Nam Khan river. Life flows slowly here, just like the muddy Mekong. The people are gentle and unassuming.
Photo taken at the morning market of Luang Prabang. I fastly caught a glimpse of this old Asian man. Don't know if he noticed me, but one shot was all I got before he turned around and start eating his meal. All camera sounds OFF, 432mm zoom, spot metering, F3.3, 1/100s and ISO200.
Our last day in Luang Prabang we were strolling down the Morning Market. A good place to go for food and entertainment. There are hundreds of temporary and semi-permanent shops, stalls, and blankets spread on the ground, where everyone buy and sell almost anything. Here the hill tribesman or woman comes face to face with the modern western traveler in a milieu strange to both of them. But nonetheless the strangeness seems to handle with a broad smile. Inside the market I caught a glimpse of this old man. Later I realize, looking at his dirty clothes, he must have been homeless.
He was just receiving a free meal from a local market restaurant. It was the first homeless we saw in Laos. I guess there are more homeless in Amsterdam than in Laos. Although Laos is a poor country, being homeless is ofcourse another story. But let's not forget a generation of War and the Politburo of the Communist Party who came to power. In 2005, the United States established Normal Trade Relations with Laos. Looking at his intriguing face I'm sure this man have quite a story to tell.
I took this image as I sat outside in our car while my husband who is immunosuppressed/high risk health due to heart/double lung & kidney transplants was inside an urgent care because he was sick (late that night we found out he had covid). In an effort to not miss a day of my 365 on film I brought my film and digital cameras. As I sat anxiously waiting in the car for over 2 hours I tried to keep looking for light and capture some of the light I saw. Doing this helped me to cope in a very scary situation when my anxiety level was extremely high and I had to be able to function since my husband was sick. This was my view looking into the rear view mirror—seeing the golden sunset light behind me in the mirror and seeing the contrast of also looking forward at the urgent care building my husband was inside the the darker blue look which was even more pronounced due to looking through the car windshield. These images take me back to this day this past August and I’m thankful God gave me the ability to help myself cope in this way—by looking for light and trying to capture it.

Lake Crabtree County Park is a beautiful 520-acre park in Morrisville, North Carolina that features a lake, hiking trails, a bike track, play areas, picnic shelters, canoes, sailboats, a grassy flood plain, and other amenities. There's even the remains of a 19th century farm site! What stands out in this park is a three-story observation tower that can be seen all over the park! It has stairs that allow people to go up to the top of the tower and experience the high-perspective lookout view!

In Part 5 of this story, I wrote about my first flight - as an unaccompanied child ( www.facebook.com/MyIMRAN/posts/431285358999715 ) aged 7. The "Unaccompanied Child" PIA tag from the first flight was lost over the next half century of my journeys of life, but it is etched in my memory. To this day I must have a window seat because I hardly ever sleep on a plane. The only exceptions are if it is an extremely long, especially night time, flight and in particular over a dark sea and under a dark sky.
Otherwise, I I stay awake. I love watching the world go by beneath me since that first flight from Karachi to Lahore. I retain that child-like wonder and amazement at how such a massive thing as a heavy/metal airplane can so smoothly lift off into the air, travel thousands of miles, and gently touchdown again.
My beloved late father’s bold decisions, like having me put on a flight as an unaccompanied child on my first flight, and many other brave actions, especially as parents for their firstborn child, even in a developing country since the late 1960s, had a deep impact. They gave me the even more precious gift than that of flying in an aircraft before anyone in my family. They gave me the confidence, from early childhood, of taking flight in any direction in life, anywhere in the world, destination unknown or known, on my own. That gift from my beloved parents stays with me even today, in my life of journeys. I pray that it will until the end of my journey of life.
In the case of this photo, I am heading towards a destination that will not be a mystery for long. I love that a sunset over a different ocean and continent than my usual ones was visible in the photo behind me. You can clearly see that I have been awake 36 hours at the time of the start of this latest journey. And, for the record, I never smoked, drank alcohol, or tried drugs of any kind. In fact, I abhor all those things. That is a non-alcoholic beverage by my side, in case someone wonders! Rather than consume anything that dulls the senses, I am addicted.... to saying awake, as much as I can,... while I am stayin' alive, stayin' alive..... LOL.
Thank you beloved Abu & Ami for everything, and Almighty Allah for an incredible adventure, a life of journey. It has been a journey of life beyond what I can ever claim to deserve, and far beyond what my words of gratitude can acknowledge.

General Tao chicken, rice, baby potatoes, garlic toast and stuffed chicken breast. All favs of mine. My family made it while my body finally shut down and I was sleeping. All because they heard from a family friend I haven't been eating. Lol

Pork, garlic bread, baked potatoes, and beer.
Ignore the fruit. That is part of my daily snacks for the next day. A banana at "mid day", and two apples throughout the day.
They are all here:
This one was even tougher to put together: I had a really hard time getting Xiamara to stand. And to kneel... It still isn't exactly right and never would have worked if it hadn't been for the floating avatar in the foreground.
There are 5 photographs in the background this time and again, they all come from www.sxc.hu/.
And the the poses are by Frigg Ragu. Of course!
When I came downstairs in the morning a few days ago my daughter said she had a surprise for me. She showed me these “flowers” that she picked for me sitting on the table. I appreciated her thoughtfulness and seeing beauty even in weeds....I thought they were beautiful weeds too.

What we are protesting is this newly proposed beta page layout -
which would soon take effect. I think I got enough from this current
flickr page. I don't mind the black background , it's ok with me but whenever
I download a page , it takes much longer which is a pain .The overall
appearance of a flickr page at the moment with all the pictures isn't
that nice, I have to put up with it. If you've seen or tried the Beta page
it's adding more agony into the injury . The comment section which
is layed out on the right hand side of the photo is too cramped up , has a
a small space for description and the comment section can only display
a limited few. This beta page is a stretch towards the breaking threshold
anyone can bear up with.
I just love the old way flickr
used to be for years. This may not be reflective of everyone's
preference . I am not against change ok, but if only flickr
could give us few options how we present our pages.
Those who wish to join in the protest should not upload any image on the
8th of December except an all in black dominated image , either of your creation
or you can copy the image floating around flickr also with more info and links from :
www.flickr.com/photos/anujnair/11166980463/
... and post it on your page .
Also you can sign in the petition advocated by Toby Tenma ,
hoping to get at least 10,000 signatures calling for the old
flickr page back or at the least if flickr can give us back
the options. This has to be delivered to the Flickr CEO Marissa
Mayer . If we share the same sentiments with the spirit
of solidarity and would like to call out flickr's attention you
can click : HERE
*Marissa Mayer's flickr site
Still have the same drift ? You can get this viral quick . Please, please
please , spread the news
to as many people on flickr , that'll be great !
At least we tried :)
Thank you :)

I’ve admired a lot of Street Photography on Flickr for a while now and always wanted to give it a go. I recently took a trip to York so I thought I’d give it a go, I hung my camera around my neck and had at it with my remote control.
Admittedly, I realised I had to learn a lot from the process, my main problem is capturing people as there walking towards me, a lot of the shots I got was of people walking away from me which I should have been more aware of, but, it was a learning experience if nothing else.
Seems I got something right with this one at least; Explored > www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/2012/9/11/page29 <
