[ s o u r c e -- another letter from michael to stipe to patti smith, i believe, as in "e-bow the letter". I'm really fond of both. Ok. Thanks for stopping by.]
"Yellow circus left the stakes a broken ropes world's useless mug
The ties that bind, ha ha
I can be bad poet
Street poet
Shit poet
Kind poet too
Subway
Almost 4AM
Halloween night
Had enough to drink to make my own party
All my fellow writers in half costume, half asleep
Half silly, gone to seed
I don't mark my time with dates, holidays, faded wisdom, locked karma holders
Convenient
I am made by my times
I am a creation of now
Shaken with the cracks and crevices
I'm not giving up easy
I will not fold
I don't have much
But what I have is gold
I saw your face...
I sing in platinum
I dress in brass
I eat in zinc
Let it pass
Compare a toast
I like that
I understand courage
I still roll with the shout of a character I was married to today
I try to see outside myself
I understand the eyes
Excuse all the highs
Sorry
I am sorry
Ha ha
I like you, love you, every coast of you.
I've seen your eddies and tides and hurricanes and cyclones.
Low ebb tide and high, full moon.
Up close and distant.
I read you.
Look, the sky, the sea, the ocean, the sun, the moon.
Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue blue, blue, blue, blue, blue.
Naked and blue.
Breathing with you. Touch. Change. Shift. Allow air. Window open. Drift. Drift away. Into now.
I want Whitman proud. Patti Lee proud. My brothers proud. My sisters proud. I want me. I want it all. I want sensational. Irresistible.
This is my time and I am thrilled to be alive.
Living. Blessed. I understand.
Twentieth century:
Collapse Into Now
Cinderella boy
You've lost your shoe
Cinderella boy
Your coach awaits
A sun makes shadows
All over your face
As you sit
Naked and blue
Into me"
Last night I was invited by two amazing local photographers, Steve Wampler and Michael Connell, to go shoot with them at a tester event here in Austin, Texas. Bella Salon and Spa was having their stylists do some test shoots to prepare for an upcoming fashion event. It was a lot of fun, and a little crazy, with all the stylists prepping models' hair and makeup. The original area to shoot in was a little confined and restricting so I decided to wander around the salon until I found a space to setup some speed lights and do my thing. We were basically taking headshots for the stylists to review their work. Steve Wampler is the king of this, he does a great job and I knew that he would capture everything that the clients wanted. So this gave me a great deal of freedom to wander off and play.
So I setup in the backroom, had a great time shooting back there, but eventually decided to move things around the shop. There are lots of fun pics coming from this night, I look forward to sharing them.
This image however, was after the gear was put aside and my friend Michael Connell @txshooter was playing in the far back area. I saw he was shooting in this area full of mirrors. Inspired by what I saw him working with I asked if I could snap a few shots and shifted the model so that she was leaning against the mirror. The split face makeup made this ideal for the concept.
So this was shot with ambient light, high-iso, and a slowish shutter. But the concept really felt like it worked out so I think I'll try this again in future.
Thanks again to Mike, Steve, and all the crew at Bella Salon and Spa. You guys were all great. Look for Mike and Steve's shots from thsi event, they are sure to be stellar!

I am not happy with this. I had big hopes for this as a tilt-shift miniature, but I don't think it looks that much more miniature than the original ultrawide shot in the comments. I might try it again with a slightly longer lens?
I got this idea when I looked at the demolition/building site outside my office window yesterday, but I only had an 85mm lens and couldn't get anything in. So I took my 14mm today and shot a few shots. I have to say I love that lens. Being manual, it makes you work, but it is very sharp and gives just excellent image quality.
It has been weird seeing a row of terraced houses, like the ones in the distance, being demolished to make way for a new research institute. The digger drivers are very skillful and I have spent a few spare moments watching them smashing up walls and breaking up concrete foundation blocks, usually when our building shudders particularly violently!
Evidently a lot of building work is going on in London! Look at all the cranes. In the distance you may just be able to make out canary wharf and the gherkin buildings, but they are mostly lost in the haze (and added blur).
Anyway, enough waffling, now to sleep! Long weekend this weekend because of some crazy religious festival. Roll on 5-ish tomorrow!
This was the closest we could get to this bird colony on the St. Lawrence (Bergin Island). Also, what started out to be clear and calm was changing by the end of the day as a cold front swept into the area binging more snow. Time enough for a few quick shots, a video or two then it was back to shore. Just like any ship plying ice filled waters, it's possible for the canoe to be trapped when an open lead closes due to shifting ice. Unlike other boats, the canoe can be lifted out of the entrapped ice (provided the paddler's are able to portage on the ice flows).
Inbound from Colombo, Sri Lanka, MAERSK SEMBAWANG hit severe weather conditions in the Bay of Biscay. 26 containers were lost in the sea and 47 were damaged on deck. The ship is now in Le Havre for inspection and unloading.

Last minute run up to Mt Tamalpais with Maximilian Laue to shoot the sunset. Not a whole lot of color since the fog was pouring over the ridge right as the sun was setting, We were buried in fog 5 min after I took this picture.
A breezy day in the woods around Margaret Lake.
One of my first experiments with the Abelson "select-a-scope" pinhole turret, mounted on the Intrepid 4x5. I chose a .02 inch aperature, which is roughly f/200 at 100mm focal length. Shot on some "mildly" expired Kodak E100G film.
This is one of my first attempts at using tilt shift in a photo. It was taken with my Canon G12, which has an image mode setting for it. I know it isn’t as good as a dedicated tilt shift lens, but I quite like it. What do you think?
This photo was taken in Verona, Italy, and the street scene shown here is in the eastern part of the city shot from the high wall battlements at the 14th Century Castelvecchio.
Processing this image got me thinking about the different settings on our cameras. Are some camera modes just a gimmick? Do any enthusiast or professional photographers actually use them,ever? There are a ton of image mode settings on my G12, some of which are useful, like Tilt Shift. It also has an HDR setting, which works quite well, but I’d still rather bracket myself. Then there are some like Beach, Underwater and Sepia which I never use.
Post Processing:
Single Jpeg (no option for shooting Raw when in gimmick mode)
Processed in Photomatix
Added Tonal Contrast filter in Color Efex Pro
Pre shift checks..
Done nearly halfway through the shift as went out straight away and only just getting chance to do them..
But happened to leave a patient at home near a petrol station which had a Costa machine!! Nice!
I work for Yorkshire Ambulance Service in and around the city of Sheffield in South Yorkshire.
It’s a great job and I feel very honoured to be able to help people at their point of need.
Check out the website for all sorts of info re YAS and the work we do.
The newly restored Climax #9 is seen here shifting some hoppers within the Cass Yard, as she works to make up her photo freight for the day. The lettering on the new Climax is a bit curious. She was built as Moore-Keppel Co. Climax #6, and later moved to the Middlefork Railroad, also as #6. Now, she carries the Moore-Keppel lettering, but her number is her assigned Cass Scenic Railroad #9. I guess that with a Shay #6 and a Heisler #6 already on the Cass Roster, the railroad just couldn't see letting the 70-ton Climax become their 3rd #6.
This is my new shift lens. It uses a Schneider Componar 75mm f/4.5 enlarging lens on a metal lens board that slides around and is being held with magnets.
I was trying to get infinity focus but I missed the mark, so now its minimum focus is about 15 feet. But I reach infinity when fully closed.
I bought this shift knob for my friend who got 2005 Mustang GT from amazon.

I was standing on the Seoul city wall on Inwangsan mountain and apparently there was a huge forbidden-to-take-photos-sign In front of me I seemed to have missed. An old couple made sure I noticed it by pointing at it and saying no and crossing their arms. Later they tried to tell on me to a guard, but unfortunately for them he wasn't at his post.
Cut down the dotted line. Disect me.
Things have been super up and down with my boyfriend, and I know it because he's stressed from work. It kills me to see him so stressed. Yes, He works at Starbucks, he got promoted to a shift a few months ago and just recently his boss quit. Now him and a co-worker named Andy pretty much have to run the store, without the pay that they deserve. He works 3-11:30 everyday pretty much with the occasional two days off. He lives a half n hour away from work. He tries to fit in time for me and time for sleep in those extra hours. Sometimes he spends more time with me, and he doesn't get a lot of sleep which makes him grouchy. He also has to take care of things for his parents who retired and moved down to Hondorus, run errads and whatnot. Which he has to fit into those two days off or time before work. It makes me so sad to see him so stressed and sometimes I get sad when we don't hang out, I want to be a better girlfriend and try to make things easier but sometimes I can't and just make him more stressed. I love him with all my heart. Pray that he feels more at ease. Thanks.
On another note I am shooting a wedding, one I'm not really thrilled on shooting because I think this lady is crazy. She's a girl from my classes sister. So I'm cutting them a deal. It's gunna be crazy Pray that I don't kill anyone as well.
fact: I woke up at 2p.m. today and feel like I've wasted half the day. My mom also bought me and my boyfriend re-usable chop sticks YAY!
The colours are a bit wacky on this tilt shifted picture, but it was a bit overexposed on the original shot, so I HDRed it too!! I am spending far too much time in front of the computer - I should really get out more - tee hee!
I was asked in my last post if I had used a tilt-shift lens for effect. The answer was no, as you can't get a Hasselblad tilt-shift for less than $5,000 (and I don't have that kind of money). However, the question spurred me to remember that last year I actually constructed my own tilt-shift for my Hasselblad. It was made using the plunger cam technique, for probably less than $10.
I only put one roll through it, and this image is one of two that were good enough to keep. The problem with a Hasselblad tilt-shift is that there's no way to control aperture or focus. The aperture is the easier part, because it results from the lens you use for the tilt-shift apparatus, so you have some choice over that. But the shutter speed is basically the speed at which you can press the shutter release. My fingers are not very fast, so I'm guessing I wasn't getting anything faster than 1/15 of a second or so. And I can't seem to get much faster with a cable release. This makes for very overexposed images, especially on bright days. Still, I think the idea has merit, and I wouldn't mind giving it another go.
This, of course, is the beautiful St. John's Bridge.
Taken from Normandy Hill road bridge (Plymouth UK) that crosses the Tamar Valley Branch Line on a Canon 5DMk2 with Hasselblad fit Carl Zeiss 80mm CB Planar on Mirex Tilt/Shift. f2.8 with 10 degrees upward tilt.
Image cropped from original, bright areas of foliage subdued, saturation increased and a slight rotation of image (2 degrees).
This was me trying on a shift I wore during a Tudor recreation I took part in some years ago. I had to wear it under a heavy Tudor dress and corset.
Newsweek: Obama better represents Catholics than does the Pope
WSJ: Unemployment Up from 4.8% to currently 9.5% (20% in MI) and expected to rise
Obama flies pizza chef to Washington, DC from St. Louis to cater a party for him and his pals at White House.
Obama: "We are out of money"
Obama: "Its Working"
Facts: Government has nationalized AIG, Chrysler, GM, Citibank and has its eyes set on Health Care
This administration and congress has already outspent all previous 43 presidents combined
"Stimulus" is spent on bailing out failed social experiments and entitlement sinkholes by state governments controlled by "progressives"
House passes largest Tax Increase in the History of America - they aim to tax the air we breathe
Charitable donation levels and business investments down as tax levels increase
Obamas plan vacation at Martha's Vineyard
Obama promised unemployment would not exceed 8% - now its 9.5% and rising
Obama said it was mandatory that the 10 to 20 trillion dollar (with debt servicing) "stimulus" was passed right away or we are doomed - it was voted on and passed without those voting in the affirmative for it even reading it.
Once passed, the vast majority of the "stimulus" spending is deferred to 2010 which coincidentally is an election year for the politicians who voted for passage. An inference is that the only crisis was the socialists getting reelected after their policy of fascism failed to turn around the economy. A study of history will reveal their concern - no fascist/socialist enterprise has been successful at improving the quality of life for its citizens at any time in human history. No civilization has successfully taxed and spent its way out of a recession in the history of humanity.
Those who hold America's debt are frantically calling for a "world currency", knowing full well, that the certain forthcoming hyperinflation in America will significantly devalue the US Dollar and their investments will then be worth pennies on the dollar.
Now, Obama says that health care must be nationalized right away or we are doomed.
Now, Obama says that Sotomayor must be confirmed right away or we are doomed.
Now, Obama says that Cap and Trade (destroy and nationalize the energy sector) bill must be passed right away or we are doomed.
Now, Obama says that trillions of dollars of new taxes must be passed right away or we are doomed. These new taxes are on top of the trillions of dollars in new taxes that were already included in his "stimulus" bill and budget.
Is there a pattern? Does "we" refer to his constituents or perhaps himself and his political cronies?
No civilization has reversed a downward unemployment spiral by shrinking its private sector and growing its government bureaucracy.
The countries who have tried the fascist/socialist experiment are now moving back to more capitialistic free market policies - why? because shrinking their private sector and burdening it with increased government confiscatory/redistribution policies created misery in the form of unemployment, loss of individual freedom, lower quality of life and medical care rationing, shortages and misery.
Biden: We have to keep spending money to keep from going bankrupt.
Obama: We must pass nationalized health care so we can reduce costs. (We must do it now or we are doomed)
CBO Chief: Health Bills To Increase Federal Costs
White House wants more power to set Medicare rates
wiki.answers.com/Q/Name_and_explain_two_effects_of_price_...
When thinking about price controls, think of the supply and demand curves and remember that with a price control, it is impossible for a price to get into equilibrium. With that in mind, we can identify two problems that result from this.
1. A shortage/oversupply of the good. If there is a price ceiling, you have a shortage (a la gasoline during the price controls of the 70's.) If there is a floor, you have overproduction (a la ethanol. Which, granted, is subsidized, but that is effectively like a price floor). *Note* also consider the housing markets where rent control is present.
2. An inefficient allocation of resources. With ethanol being subsidized, we witnessed a massive increase in the price of corn. The market did not want this, and thus we saw an inefficient allocation of resources.
Should National Health Care pass in this country, I will not know where or when I will die, but I will know how - substandard medical care, denial of care, lack of r&d due to price controls and rationing emposed by the government - all based on decisions by bureaucrats, actuaries, accountants and political appointees who I do not know and who do not know me or my specific needs or wishes ... and more importantly do not care ... they care only about passing the next government audit cycle for cost control.

Standing boldly at the intersection of 7th and Potrero Avenue, this sleek, contemporary structure exemplifies the next chapter of San Francisco architecture—where innovation, density, and design integrity converge. The building’s distinctive curved façade, clad in vertical silver panels, immediately catches the light and transforms with the shifting sky. Its rhythmic windows and aerodynamic form introduce a subtle softness to the industrial geometry of the surrounding neighborhood, creating a visual dialogue between the city’s manufacturing past and its tech-forward present.
This address, 1010 Potrero, sits at the gateway between Showplace Square and the emerging Mission Bay corridor, two areas long associated with creativity and reinvention. Historically home to warehouses, print shops, and furniture showrooms, the district has evolved into a hub of design studios, production spaces, and mixed-use developments that retain the grit and character of their industrial roots while embracing sustainable modernism. The building’s metal cladding and rounded corner echo this lineage—an homage to the riveted steel and corrugated textures once common here—now refined through minimalist precision.
Designed for both residential and commercial use, the property blends contemporary urban living with public engagement at the street level. The ground-floor restaurant, Ama Mediterranean, invites a sense of neighborhood vibrancy, activating the corner with outdoor seating and warm light that spills onto the sidewalk in the evening. Above, the streamlined façade offers residents expansive views toward Potrero Hill, Twin Peaks, and downtown’s skyline. The design is distinctly urban yet human-scaled, aligning with San Francisco’s shift toward walkable, mixed-use density that prioritizes sustainability and connection.
The building also reflects the architectural optimism shaping post-industrial San Francisco—where form and material are employed not to dominate the skyline, but to harmonize with it. Its aluminum skin mirrors the Bay’s changing light, turning from cool silver at dawn to golden bronze by sunset. The vertical seams create a rhythm reminiscent of the city’s maritime and manufacturing past, yet its silhouette feels undeniably contemporary, expressing San Francisco’s ongoing evolution through design.
Seen from the intersection, with bike lanes, tree-lined sidewalks, and Muni buses threading past, the structure embodies the city’s modern ethos: adaptable, efficient, and alive with movement. This is the new San Francisco—where architecture continues to reinterpret its past while looking confidently toward the future.
