Hello my good friends!

I hope all of you are in good health and enjoying the best. I would like to sincerely thank you all for your genuine communications. They’re are always valued and appreciated.

 

So, I found this growing dove in a random place, where it looked sick, sad and forsaken.

 

I tried to communicate and lend a hand but after some attempts, it flew away and disappeared.

 

I guess it’s a case of an early mother’s loss. A real grief that young dove was experiencing.

Delighted to present a stunning image I photographed of a Japanese fusion dance at Global Village, Dubai, on August 20, 2025. The picture showcases two dancers in graceful, flowing attire, skillfully managing glowing spheres, set against a lively cosmic backdrop with striking blue, pink, and green neon tones. The composition and lighting beautifully emphasize the cultural blend, offering a captivating visual. This shot captures the event’s dynamic spirit and exceptional artistry.

There are moments when the things that hold us seem to loosen their grip.

The weight we carry.

The ground beneath us.

The quiet certainty that what rises must eventually return.

And for the briefest instant, there is only suspension—a small space between where we have been and where we are going.

Of course, gravity remembers.

It always does.

Perhaps that is what makes those moments of weightlessness so beautiful.

Designed by Coop Himmelb(l)au, this 1,300-seat hall is celebrated as one of the quietest symphonic spaces in Europe, boasting a complex acoustic environment co-engineered by Arup. It normally echoes with the sounds of the resident Aalborg Symphony Orchestra, but in this still moment, the architecture itself takes center stage.

Energetic live performance by Jally Kebba & his band during a fund raising event at the Jazz Cafe, London City.

 

About:

Accomplished kora playing maverick Jally Kebba Susso is a UK based griot, born and raised in 74 generations of Gambian musical heritage. But he is not your ordinary griot.

Forging a new trajectory of sound for the West African harp - songwriter and composer - he honed his own upbeat electronic sound over years of experimentation on the London underground scene since 2002 and as a core member of Afriquoi.

 

Skilfully mixing contemporary Mandinka and Wollof music, this is a new blend of afro-futurist psychedelic funky kora that is immediately accessible and uplifting, yet filled with nuance and intoxicating rhythmical layers that give the music depth and intrigue.

 

Raised in a household of musicians, Jally Kebba was exposed to incredible musicianship from a very early age and under the guidance of his father Bully Suso, a very well-respected kora player and his elder brothers, by 13 he was touring internationally across

Europe.

 

In 2007 he formed his band Manding Sabu and with them ran a highly acclaimed African music residency night at Passing Clouds for 5 years called Strings on Fire. He has released two albums of original compositions - Banjul- London (2017) and Malaye Warr

(2012) and is gigging extensively at festivals and venues across UK and Europe.

The new Freedom EP was released in 2021, the punchiest offering to date, pushed musical boundaries for afro-electro kora. Precision, speed and a merciless energy characterise their performance style making them solid dance floor fillers.

 

To the ones who’ve interest in Kora music and like to hear something different, I would suggest listening to some of it on his youtube channel:

When grace leads your path, every moment shines brighter. Trust the divine plan and enjoy a peaceful day.

Framing the moment while the stage lights tell their own story. ✨

Una bailarina aparece de espaldas en una pose elegante y concentrada, iluminada suavemente dentro de un espacio oscuro y teatral. El tutú negro, los detalles de encaje y la postura sobre puntas transmiten disciplina, belleza y misterio. La escena combina la delicadeza del ballet clásico con una atmósfera íntima, casi pictórica, donde cada gesto parece suspendido en silencio.

 

A ballerina is seen from behind in an elegant and focused pose, softly illuminated within a dark and theatrical space. The black tutu, lace details, and pointe stance convey discipline, beauty, and mystery. The scene combines the delicacy of classical ballet with an intimate, almost painterly atmosphere, where every gesture seems suspended in silence.

A highlight of our trip to Santa Fe was attending the Opera - Madama Butterfly at the Santa Fe Opera House (Crosby Theatre).

Google Gemini AI

Inside the Crosby Theatre, rows of empty green seats slope downward toward a wide-open stage, catching the soft glow of pre-show light filtering through the open-air pavilion. Onstage, a minimalist set for Madama Butterfly takes shape: a raised wooden platform framed by clean, geometric pillars sits beneath a massive, luminous golden orb that glows like a setting sun or full moon against the natural horizon behind the theater. Overhead, the distinctive angular ceiling panels form a dramatic geometric canopy, seamlessly blending modern architectural design with the open landscape beyond the back wall. Down in the orchestra pit, a single musician prepares, adding a sense of quiet anticipation to the sweeping, open space before the audience arrives.

 

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Fe_Opera

Santa Fe Opera (SFO) is an American opera company, located 7 miles (11 km) north of Santa Fe, New Mexico. After creating the Opera Association of New Mexico in 1956, its founding director, John Crosby, oversaw the building of the first opera house on a newly acquired former guest ranch of 199 acres (0.81 km2). The company has presented operas each summer festival season since July 1957, and is internationally known for introducing new operas as well as for its productions of the standard operatic repertoire. Five operas are presented each season during the summer.[1][2]

 

From the beginning, certain characteristics of what was to become a typical season emerged. It runs annually from late June or the beginning of July to the third week of August, with five operas presented in rotating repertory.

Haiku thoughts on Madama Butterfly

Cherry blossoms fall—

she waits by the harbor still,

love turns into ash.

That final moment: hands in the air, hearts full, and the band capturing us right back :-).

Finally, Ruby's bicycle show debuted this evening! I know, I've been talking about how hard Ruby was working, practising and rehearsing all the time. You did not believe me, perhaps, but what could I do, Ruby just doesn't like to be photographed all the time! Not only that she's shy, she also wants to keep some secrets. She wants the audience at the circus to be the first people who ever see her shows. Some photos including hints to her choreography would leave her sad and uninspired...

 

Yes, "her shows", since there are more than one. She's always been the starring actress of Madam Argall's circus and had to master more than one field. But let's talk about these later ^_^ Because it was a very tiring night, Ruby just finished her show and is removing her make-up at the backstage. I know she's tired, but she also can't help but to smile all the time, which means everything went well at the stage and she felt the love coming from her fans...

 

Here is a photo I managed to take, when her name was being announced and just before she was about to take stage. "I've been on the stage for so many years now," she says, "but every single time my heart's pounding in my chest like it's the first time..." ♥

 

(I made her dress and bicycle, and was able to find the perfect ballerina shoes thanks to a dear friend ♥)

After the show

First live show of the week, and what a one. I've followed the great Australian artist Courtney Barnett for years, and seeing her live again was amazing. My daughter knew plenty of her lyrics by heart at ten, which might be the best way to pass music on. 🎸🎶

Stage lights, rhythm, and pure energy ✨

Going through my archives and deleting old pictures, I came across this one, which caught my attention. It's part of a theater curtain with stage lights on the left. Not the best image as I shot this in low light with a ridiculously high ISO and hand held, but never the less, it held a bit of appeal. Maybe I'm just thinking of the program icons on my desktop monitor. In any case, some creative editing enhanced color but the strong noise reduction also reduced sharpness in those lights. Happy Sliders Sunday!

An excerpt from the contemporary dance performance "Eight / Kaheksa".

This is Kip, the charismatic frontman of London-based band Steak. With their groovy fuzz sound, they put on a great show at Desertfest last weekend. Really enjoyed them.

 

Proper DSLRs and other professional cameras were only allowed for accredited photographers during the festival, and since I no longer own a decent pocket camera, I made do with my phone.

 

More band shots coming soon!

I just survived three days of festival mayhem — it was absolutely glorious: 22 bands over 3 days, roughly 8 hours of music each day.

Long live music, long live rock!
