The last few months have been an emotional roller coster. I've been staring @ my wrist more and more to find the strength to keep pressing on thru the pain. Its a latin quote, It means "Conquer Self and You Shall Conquer". All one can do take it one day @ a time. Time does heals all wounds but you are forever left with the emotional scars.
My work is based on surfaces and weathering.
I have kept some photographs in colours they already contain bold colours which create a good overall images however i have put some others in black and white. I did this to show a strong contrast between the dark and light colours.
The majority of my photos were taken on the macro setting as they were close up and i was trying to photograph small detail.
I specifically arranged my images so that the composition is not too basic. For example I would take the photos so that the main subject is slightly off centred.
The viewpoints were taken at the same level as the subject so that all clarity was captured and the angle was straight on.
i used natural lighting to take these photos however i think that they would have been more successful if i used a studio light.
They have not been manipulated but i did touch them up using aperture. I adjusted the brightness and black point.
i think that my primary sources are successful as I managed to capture the detail of surfaces and weathering that i wanted.

Artwork description
Source is installed at the main entrance to downtown Montréal, in a landscaped terrace at the intersection of Boulevard Robert-Bourassa and Rue Wellington. The stainless-steel sculpture consists of a random intertwining of letters taken from Latin, Greek, Chinese, Arab, Cyrillic, Hindi, Hebrew, and Japanese alphabets, combined to form a monumental figure in a sitting position. The work is an allegory for humanity: like cells are assembled to form the human body, the letters form words, and people form a community. Source represents the wealth of cultures that Montréal has welcomed during its almost four centuries of existence. A symbol of the city’s past, present, and future, Source, seen in the light of day or under its night-time lighting, invites residents to walk, dream, and meet.
By creating Source for the 375th anniversary of the foundation of Montréal, the artist wanted to take into account the importance of water in the city’s history – for trade, immigration, and communications – but also the importance of the place of Indigenous peoples. Source, a word that is identical in French and English, refers to the birthplace of a watercourse, but also represents the roots of a city’s energy and vitality: its inhabitants and their origins, the fluidity and creativity of ideas, and the cycles of movement and renewal.
Source was created within the context of the redevelopment project for the south threshold of the Bonaventure expressway, constituting a legacy for the 375th anniversary of the foundation of Montréal. The integration of Source into the Bonaventure legacy was made possible through an exceptional contribution by the Chrétien-Desmarais family.

The publication SOURCE is a collection of interviews of people and groups who are actively challenging the political status-quo regarding the status of marginalized people and other difficult political issues, and who have visions of proactive tactics on how to address them.
The second issue of SOURCE that was published in US in November 2018 focused on topic of migration. Migration though was understood in more symbolic way as a process of transition, which is fundamental to so much of contemporary life. People migrate between identities, countries, languages, economic realities, genders, political beliefs, contexts.

Mohamed Saleh To all friends and colleagues, those who do not know yet the present case of the mask of Tut-ankh-amun , I would like to tell all of them that the false beard which was badly fixed in the restoration, was safely removed last week. It was thank god done by a German -Egyptian team headed by Christian Eckmann. The false beard might have been fixed in recent times by soldering to the chin of the mask. It was long anticipated that it was fixed to the chin by two slots which received the tenons. I was surprised to find the mask's chin without slots. The work is going now to remove the rests of the glue materials and study the wonderful workmanship of modelling the mask by two layers of gold and some other scientific research. I must congratulate the team and the good opportunity of having a good chance to make this study

На прошлой неделе ритуальная бородка, неверно приклеенная к подбородку погребальной маски Тутанхамона с помощью эпоксидного клея, была благополучно отделена. Работа ведется германско-египетской командой под руководством Кристиана Экманна. «В настоящее время идет постепенное удаление остатков клея и дальнейшее изучение маски, которая, как выяснилось, выкована из двух слоев золота», – сообщил генеральный руководитель проекта Великого музея в Гизе и бывший директор Египетского музея на площади Тахрир д-р Мохамед Салех.

Daily Shoot: Turn the tables and make a photograph of a light source today. Light bulb, window, or even the sun (be careful!).
Our garden lights are switched on automatically with a sensor telling them when it's dark enough. Normally just after sunset when the sky still looks beautifully blue.
Logo design for TCG Source, a Trading Card Game website based in Germany. I was tasked with creating a logo that would fit in with the design of the website and work across various social media pages.
This is a slide from the talk we gave at Open Source Bridge in Portland in June, 2011. In this talk we take a practical look at the design process and techniques everyone should know.
How many product ideas never make it to market? Some failure is OK, but why does it happen so often? We don’t believe it’s because of bad ideas. We believe that teams are missing a holistic approach to design for people, inside and outside the organization.

Talakaveri (Kannada: ತಲಕಾವೇರಿ), is the place that is generally considered to be the source of the Kaveri River. It is located in the Brahmagiri hill (not to be confused with the Brahmagiri range further South) near Bhagamandala in Kodagu district, Karnataka, 1,276 m. above sea level. However, there is not a permanent visible flow from this place to the main rivercourse except during the rainy season.
A tank or kundike has been erected on a hillside, at the place that is said to be the origin. It is also marked by a small temple, and the area is frequented by pilgrims. The Kaveri River originates as a spring feeding this tank, which is considered to be a holy place to bathe on special days. The waters are then said to flow underground to emerge as the river some distance away. The temple has been renovated extensively by the state government recently[2007].
Talakaveri is about 8 km away from Bhagamandala and 48 km from Madikeri.
