Please excuse the image quality. This shot was taken from a moving car. About the only way houses get any paint in rural N. Peru is to allow political ads be painted on the houses.
I finally got around to both taking a shot and processing it in time for the Dailyshoot challenge
Todays assignment was "Make a photograph of the front of a building today. Could be your house, the bank, or city hall. "
Of course me being me I had to do a twist on it and got this shot of a part of a front of one of the buildings in the Tudor City part of Manhattan reflected in the mirror of a motorbike
Thanks Steve for the gentle reminders each day about the dailyshoot challenge

This recent series of floods were all originally taken from the top of a mountain. I have shown more of the actual moutain top in this one. Eventually I might just post the actual scene.
To be clear, this is photoart. It is not my intention to trick anyone into thinking these are entirely real. The reflection and water are simulated using Photoshop and Flaming Pear's flood filter. Everything from the horizon up is a photograph.

A photo that I took at hookstone woods yesterday. I originally edited it for my 'rotated reality' group but decided to slide it too. HSS :)
The growing sense of the ineffable that reaches and curves toward the light of an ultimate reality can never be transplanted into the shallowness of mere reflection. Torn out of its medium, it is usually metamorphosed like a rose pressed between the pages of a book. When reduced to terms and definitions, it is little more than a desiccated remnant of a once living reality.

back to reality... the here and now!!!
i am standing in muddy waters in the middle of my street after yesterday's daytime downpour of our rainy season. most rainfalls happen during the night, so I could not show you how each north-south running street in Ajijic becomes a river running down from the mountains into the lake.
no, we are not flooded here, this is totally normal, it’s how our lake refills itself every year after the 9 month dry spell and why our curbs are so high in this village -
and it only takes like half an hour until one can cross these streets again...... unless you have rubber booties like me (((:
but yes, there were times when leaving a restaurant after some elegant evening dining, we had to step right into this muddy water.... with our elegant sandals and shoes, to walk home or get our cars! (((: (a true story!!)

World is not sunny, funny and nice. I just think that world is full of everything (including bad and good things). So I guess that without depress there aren't reality. Isn't?
In this photo, does the railing of the staircase appear perfectly straight, or does it deform into an undulation, like a wave, as soon as you look at it? Is what we perceive, as individuals, objective reality, or just a subjective interpretation of it? Between different people, do we share the same vision of the world around us, or are our perceptions shaped by our unique experiences? In short, aren't there as many realities as there are individuals? Couldn't we say that the world is, in the final analysis, only what we choose to see in it?
Sur cette photo, le garde-corps de l’escalier semble-t-il parfaitement droit, ou se déforme-t-il en une ondulation, comme une vague, dès que votre regard se pose dessus ? Ce que nous percevons, en tant qu'individus, est-il la réalité objective, ou n’est-ce qu’une interprétation subjective de celle-ci ? Entre différentes personnes, partageons-nous la même vision du monde qui nous entoure, ou nos perceptions sont-elles façonnées par nos expériences uniques ? En somme, n’existe-t-il pas autant de réalités qu’il y a d’individus ? Ne pourrait-on pas affirmer que le monde n’est, en définitive, que ce que nous choisissons d’y voir ?
Early in the day, before the city wakes up, this part of it is lost among the monstrous reality that never seizes to stop..

This is how we walk down the street. Ben goes in leaps and bounds, while I prefer the slow and steady hop.
Here's the deal. I am taking six busy courses this semester and I have only two spare neurons to rub together. I'd love to use them for a picture everyday, but alas I cook dinner instead.
We will be here every Saturday though!
(The quality of this shot is horrible, I have no idea why!)
