Everyone drives a scooter in Saigon - the streets are filled with them. This shot is not as sharp as I had hoped, but I was shooting from a pedi-cab and I couldn't keep the camera still. But I still liked the chaios of the image (if only it had sound).
At least the Venetian equivalent of a street scene. The Grand Canal is the main street. Gondola (taxi) coming in to tie up (park). The vaporetto (bus) station across the canal. Rialto Bridge crowded with tourists.
Quite a contrast to my previous photo of the rock formations in Utah, but I love them both!
Much more to see!
One of Ray Gell's images that really brings home the amount of work needed to restore even a small locomotive. There was nothing on the slide, but I'm guessing early Bluebell Railway?
For the A3C3 monthly challenge, "crime scene". I'm offering 2 different photos. One is a real crime scene and this, which, of course, is totally bogus. The flash on the 4x5 graphic is fired with a wireless flash trigger attached to the Holga, which is more ridiculous than the photo itself.
It's that time of the year for fall colors.This was taken at the Old Mission Peninsula near Traverse City, MI.

Scenes of the Entrance to The Sanderson Arcade and The Clock Tower in Morpeth, Northumberand, taken whilst on holiday in June.
The Sanderson Arcade is a shopping centre in the heart of the beautiful market town of Morpeth with 27 fantastic stores.
The Clock Tower is one of Morpeth's most famous landmarks. Standing at roughly 70 ft high, tucked away in the corner of the Market Place it is now dwarfed by more modern constructions. The walls are 3'6" thick
The Clock Tower was constructed sometime between 1604 and 1634 out of Medieval Stone thought to have come from a gatehouse that previously stood at the west end of Oldgate to protect the town from marauding raiders from the north. During its time it has served as many functions to the town including a gaol until 1802 and a meat store to name but a few. The tower acquired a peal of six bells cast by the prominent bell founder Richard Phelps (Whitechapel Bell Foundry) in 1706 at the request of Major General Edmond Maine, MP of Morpeth. These bells were originally intended to be made for the Parish Church of Berwick-upon-Tweed, however, the people of Berwick failed to elect the Major General to Office some years earlier. This gave rise to the curious local saying that "Berwick Bells are heard in Morpeth." The bells fell into disprepair throughout the early half of the 20th Century and were eventually recast and hung in a new cast iron frame in 1951 by John Taylor & Co to commemorate The Festival of Britain.

The scene of a stabbing in Salt Lake County Utah
Police say the men knew each other, and the victim was told not to come back to the house. The man that was stab
bed in the stomach is expected to survive his wounds.
This turns out to be a case of self defense.

After four months of darkness, the Sun finally rises on 11 August at Concordia research station in Antarctica. The crew are understandably reverent.
ESA-sponsored medical doctor Stijn Thoolen is part of the 12-member crew spending an entire year at Concordia. For nine months they are holding down the base in one of the most isolated, confined and extreme environments on Earth, with no way in or out of the station.
They run experiments in human physiology and biology, atmospheric physics, meteorology and astronomy, among other disciplines, as well as maintain the base – one of only three to run year-round on the Antarctic Peninsula.
Four months of complete darkness is quite the challenge, one researchers are very interested in studying from a physiological and psychological point of view. From questionnaires to blood and stool samples, the crew are poked and prodded to understand how better to prepare humans for deep space travel.
Social dynamics are also of interest to researchers during the period of darkness. Stress brought on by lack of sunlight, changing sleep patterns, fatigue and moodiness can affect the group. The crew are especially encouraged to take on group activities and get creative to combat the isolation of the winter.
The first sunrise is always a remarkable moment, signalling the home stretch of their Antarctic residency. From now on the winter crew will start preparing for summer and the return of scientists that arrive for the warmer months starting in November. The base is cleaned thoroughly, machinery is serviced, tents are erected and heated, and the runway is cleared of snow. Extensive work is required to welcome the new arrivals back to the base at the end of the world.
