Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
Perpetually twitchy are the broad-tailed hummingbirds around my cabin. This alpha male took a break from chasing off other males and doing his circular dive dance to preen on a dead aspen branch. I hadn't realized how difficult preening is when you have a long beak- the neck needs to stretch a lot to attend to feathers near the head.
At this elevation (9500'/2900 m) the nights regularly drop below the threshold where these little birds can maintain a normal body temperature (too much metabolic demand) so they allow their temperatures to drop to near 50 ˚F/ 10 ˚C in a process called torpor. When the sun rises they crank up their internal heaters to bring the body temperature back to normal (106 ˚F/ 41˚C) so they can start flying again.
We had our chance...

This is where I go to ponder the mysteries of life..should I stay or should I go? This indecisions bugging me....well you can just listen to the song stuck in my head
The Clash - Should I Stay Or Should I Go
I am thinking ... a dangerous game I play with myself and oh yeah, I have to go to work and I am grateful to have a job so don't get me wrong! I may be late in returning comments...but I will my friends, as always.
Have a wonderful day my friends and thank you for your visits!
Sunday is coming, the sliders are in
Photoshop is still running, the time's getting thin
A processing error, but I have no fear
'Cause flickr is drowning, and I live by the river
Now get this
If you are a fan of Stranger Things then maybe you'll get the mood of the title with the theme song straight from season 1 ;) This scene reminded me of something from The Upside Down... I'm all about the moody fog and atmosphere but there is a healthy fear I carry of getting lost. Or maybe being left behind. I have a vivid imagination and going through the mountain roads when they look like this stir up so many scenarios in my head ha! Sorry for posting so many images lately. I've had a lot on my mind and have found myself immersing myself in my work lately. It is now 3:00 am in my time zone, I guess I better call it a night or should I say morning. Hope your week is going good, thanks for putting up with all the extra images coming through.

London calling to the faraway towns
Now that war is declared and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls

Reach of the late Joe Strummer transcends all.. Cought this walking the streets of Napoli... "The Future is unwritten"
The Coronovirus lockdown brings about a Macro Mondays return after a long absence. The theme of 'layers' being an ideal time to bring together another hobby of mine, vinyl records. Some new, some old, I've been lucky enough to keep hold of the majority of my collection despite hard times and break-ups. A carefully curated selection, due to how surprisingly few don't have the title and artist in the centre of the spine. Take note record companies. HMM y'all!

Joe Strummer loved Happy MondYay. So do I. So do these bluebells. Yes, bluebells! BLUEBELLS! I would swear I'm so pleased there are bluebells but I'm too polite for that.
Also? BLUUUUEEEEBELLLLLLLLS!
This one went up up up up up into Explore. There is another.
Todays 'squared circle' is an old badge, depicting 'The Clash' with artwork from their self titled debut album from 1977.
design I came up with using some old Spanish Civil War pictures and the lyrics to the song Spanish Bombs by The Clash
La pièce met en scène la lutte entre les deux figures animales emblématiques du monde boursier, l'ours et le taureau. Les formes opposées des deux animaux, que l'artiste a construits à partir de sections métalliques ressemblant à des schémas boursiers, représentent la lutte du monde matériel. Les deux figures animales ne sont pas statiques, mais prêtes à sauter du sol et à bondir l'une sur l'autre. Ce n'est qu'un instant, mais aussi un mouvement infini. L'humanité a lutté pour survivre aussi longtemps qu'elle a existé sur Terre, et c'est ce que les premières œuvres d'art, les peintures rupestres et les sculptures totémiques - auxquelles les œuvres de Szőke font allusion - cherchent à capturer. Dans les peintures rupestres, nos ancêtres préhistoriques représentent des figures animales ou humaines du monde matériel, sautant ou nageant généralement dans les airs, pour évoquer une existence d'un autre monde, en rupture avec le monde réel. Ces figures ont peut-être fait partie d'anciens rituels, de mystères, des premières évocations éternelles de la survie humaine, de la lutte. Ce conflit dure depuis que nos ancêtres étaient des cueilleurs et des chasseurs, mais ce n'est pas une chose du passé, mais un éternel présent à chaque époque de l'humanité. Dans notre monde d'aujourd'hui, nous faisons toujours partie de ce conflit permanent pour la survie, entre nos besoins et la satisfaction de nos besoins. Nous sommes toujours confrontés à d'énormes défis et ce n'est pas plus facile pour nous aujourd'hui qu'il y a 40 000 ans. Dans notre civilisation, la bourse a une force motrice similaire à celle de la chasse, la lutte pour l'existence matérielle et le gain matériel. Besoin et accomplissement.
Les figures qui apparaissent au moment du mouvement sont constituées d'un système de milliers de colonnes métalliques monotones, verticales et rigides. Individuellement, les colonnes peuvent être minces, épaisses, courtes ou longues, mais ensemble, les nombreuses colonnes forment une unité super puissante. Leur coupe transversale et leur localisation dans un système de coordonnées imaginaire dessinent le fonctionnement du marché boursier dans les deux espaces étatiques opposés qui personnifient les processus de marché. La sculpture représente un moment figé de lutte continue dans lequel il n'y a pas de victoire éternelle. Le premier l'emporte, puis l'autre. Avec ses surfaces glacées, neutres et froides d'inox brut évoquant un ours des cavernes, la bête s'abat sur le taureau, référence au marché en déclin. Le taureau avec son corps rougeoyant - des sections d'acier oxydé faites sur mesure - est sur le point de charger son adversaire. Il est le processus des tendances montantes. Ensemble feu et eau, énergies destructrices et constructives, éléments naturels de la vie
Les deux bêtes métalliques sont nées du monde matériel, s'affrontant sur la terre mère. L'ajout du sol, le monde terrestre comme site de la lutte, a été conçu par Szőke spécialement pour cette exposition. La sculpture représente ainsi les principaux éléments de l'univers : le feu sous la forme du taureau, l'eau sous la forme de l'ours, l'air établit un lien entre les mondes terrestre (matériel) et céleste (spirituel) et l'élément terre, récepteur passif, est à la fois stable et sûr, maintenant les figures qui s'affrontent et les nourrissant. L'existence des quatre éléments principaux est la condition de la vie. L'artiste a été influencé par le travail d'Empledocle, qui, au 5ème siècle avant JC, dans sa Tetrasomia, ou La Doctrine des Quatre Eléments [Racines], a été le premier à dériver l'univers du mélange des quatre éléments, et est considéré comme un précurseur du matérialisme. Pour Empledocle, les 4 éléments proviennent de 4 dieux. En réfléchissant à cela, Szőke voit les totems de l'âge moderne dans les images de l'ours et du taureau, dont l'affrontement entre le monde spirituel et le monde matériel incarne les affrontements de l'existence elle-même.
The piece depicts the fight between the two animal figures emblematic of the stock market, the bear and the bull. The opposing shapes of the two animals, which the artist constructed from metal sections resembling stock market diagrams, represent the struggle of the material world. The two animal figures are not static, but ready to jump off the ground and pounce on each other. It is only a moment, but also an infinite movement. Humanity has struggled to survive for as long as it has existed on Earth, and that is what early artworks, cave paintings and totemic carvings – alluded to in Szőke's works – seek to capture. In cave paintings, our prehistoric ancestors depict animal or human figures from the material world, usually jumping or swimming through the air, to evoke an otherworldly existence, a break from the real world. These figures may have been part of ancient rituals, mysteries, the first eternal evocations of human survival, of struggle. This conflict has been going on since our ancestors were gatherers and hunters, but it is not a thing of the past, but an eternal present in every age of mankind. In our world today, we are still part of this constant conflict for survival, between our needs and the satisfaction of our needs. We still face enormous challenges and it is no easier for us today than it was 40,000 years ago. In our civilization, the stock market has a driving force similar to that of the hunt, the struggle for material existence and material gain. Need and Fulfillment.
The figures that appear at the moment of movement are made up of a system of thousands of monotonous, vertical and rigid metal columns. Individually the columns can be thin, thick, short or long, but together the many columns form a super powerful unit. Their cross-section and location in an imaginary coordinate system outlines the functioning of the stock market in the two opposing state spaces that personify market processes. The sculpture represents a frozen moment of continuous struggle in which there is no eternal victory. The first wins, then the other. With its glazed, neutral and cold surfaces of raw stainless steel evoking a cave bear, the beast descends on the bull, a reference to the declining market. The bull with its glowing body - custom-made sections of oxidized steel - is about to charge its opponent. It is the process of rising trends. Together fire and water, destructive and constructive energies, natural elements of life
The two metallic beasts were born from the material world, clashing on mother earth. The addition of the ground, the terrestrial world as the site of the struggle, was designed by Szőke especially for this exhibition. The sculpture thus represents the main elements of the universe: fire in the form of the bull, water in the form of the bear, air establishes a link between the earthly (material) and celestial (spiritual) worlds and the earth element, a passive receiver, is both stable and sure, maintaining the figures which clash and nourishing them. The existence of the four main elements is the condition of life. The artist was influenced by the work of Empledocles, who in the 5th century BC, in his Tetrasomia, or The Doctrine of the Four Elements [Roots], was the first to derive the universe from the mixture of the four elements, and is considered a forerunner of materialism. For Empledocle, the 4 elements come from 4 gods. Reflecting on this, Szőke sees the totems of the modern age in the images of the bear and the bull, whose clash between the spiritual world and the material world embodies the clashes of existence itself.
Sometime in the 1980s I started putting pins of my favorite bands on a guitar strap. Time has turned the guitar and the pins into "Vintage" items. Macro Mondays: Vintage
somedays, you just get lucky. Still one of my favorite bass lines and guitar solos ever. I live by the river.. It sounds like a rock-steady car crash.

"London calling, yes, I was there, too
And you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
And after all this, won't you give me a smile?
I never felt so much alike, alike, alike." — Joe Strummer.

London Calling by The Clash-one of my favourite music albums-has just turned 40 years old. So I wanted to honor it with a photograph on flickr.
I have scanned a photograph that I took in London a few years ago with a Fujifilm disposable camera and turned it into black and white.
