At this time of year, the flag is often the only spot of colour in the otherwise drab bleakness of Tunney's Pasture.

Used a little Colour Selection here. This is my little WiFi Mouse with an Owl face on it. We use it for the laptop.
The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask.

Today in the garden, Our rambling roses are giving up their summer faces. Still attracting the odd insect or two and the odd photographer LOL. Happy Sliders Sunday all xxx
Paid a visit to the arboretum and found some colour left on a few trees. This tree was full of white cherry blossom in the spring.
Pushed the sliders a little for Sliders Sunday!
...to nurture the creative mind it must first be clear of clutter and noise
I have missed you all...it's been 2 months since I last posted, things have been busy...and my creativity has been zilch, a pit of nothingness. And posting and running was beginning to make me feel guilty. Feels like I've been in hibernation for a while. Finally I got a little clarity out of my camera today, maybe it's the Spring in the air, maybe it's the short road trip out to Bowral for their annual Spring Tulip Festival but I finally got that buzz when I saw the shots on my screen. No pressure to comment because I am still not 100% back to Flickr...just see and enjoy...I will try to be more present for this last quarter of the year.
Hopefully I can be back posting, visiting and continue to complete my projects...100X & 100 Flowers.
Each Brick weighs 5 kg. That is 16 brick, 80 kg on his head. And that is going to the Fifth floor of the Building at background , through stair.
Will get Rs/-5 ( 1/12 of $ ) for one trip.

Taken at Lavenham, Suffolk, UK.
During the reign of Henry VIII, Lavenham was the scene of serious resistence to Wolsey’s ‘Amicable Grant’, a tax being raised in England to pay for war with France.
However, it was being done so without the consent of parliament. In 1525, 10,000 men from Lavenham and the surrounding villages took part in a serious uprising which threatened to spread to the nearby counties of Essex and Cambridgeshire. However, the revolt was suppressed for the King by the Dukes of Norfolk and Suffolk, with the aid of local families.
Acaso creían que con el dolor que me causó "destripar" esa linda flor me iba a quedar con una sola toma?
Acá va la segunda, aunque con una edición diferente...
En ella, elegí compartir un texto de una amiga que adoro... ella no mira a través de un lente, pero sabe mirar a través del alma.
..."Suelo ser sumamente reflexiva con todos los asuntos a los que debo enfrentarme a diario, y supongo que mi calidad de tal se debe a la educación que me dio mi madre.
Ella aportaba su granito de arena a mi educación con pequeños cuentos que me permitían dilucidar por mi misma las soluciones que buscaba.
De un tiempo a esta parte, la causalidad hace que lleguen hasta mi muchísimos cuentos, cuya moraleja aportan pequeños faros de luz a mi tiniebla momentánea.
Aún así, hurgando en mi biblioteca de los recuerdos, encuentro el eco de su voz sacando palabras mágicas de su inagotable galera.
“Si un callo te duele, arráncalo de raíz” –me dijo un día.
“Es evidente que al sacarlo, el dolor será mucho. Pero… ¿Acaso no duele estando ahí?
El proceso será lento.
Tus pasos serán tímidos en un principio, pero cuando la herida haya cicatrizado esa timidez se transformará en cautela y de esa manera vas a aprender a explorar con atención cada terreno por el que quieras transitar.”
Hoy recordé sus palabras. "...
Gracias, Marita..!

Tú, que llenas todo de alegría y juventud
que ves fantasmas en las noches de trasluz,
y oyes el canto perfumado del azul
Vete de mí...
No te detengas a mirar las ramas viejas del rosal
que se marchitan sin dar flor
mira el paisaje del azul
que es la razon para vivir y amar
Yo, que ya he luchado contra toda la maldad
tengo las manos tan desechas de apretar
que no te puedo sujetar
Vete de mi
Seré en tu vida lo mejor, de la neblina del ayer
cuando me llegues a olvidar
como es mejor el verso aquel
que no podemos recordar...
If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England.

A view of the rather striking Canary Wharf underground station in London. It was designed by Sir Norman Foster.
It does have something of a sci-fi look and certainly offers a lot of photographic potential.

Keep uploading before afters, this time I wanted to present one of my minimalistic pictures which was exhibited at BezpalaBrown Gallery and was quit successful.
This is a Single Image. No Image manipulation except the use of Selective Colour. The surrounding area of the Rose is actually branches & leaves. The effect is the result of shallow DOF at f/2 aperture.
I will post the original colour image later.

The famous 'Out of Order' Sculpture in Kingston, given a selective colour grunge treatment, to show the damage inflicted on it by people who will insist on climbing on it, despite signs saying not to!

Taken at the Goodwood Revival event just as the doors had opened and before the crowds arrived. I used selective colouring to accentuate the red truct and decoration on the Merry Go Round
