BE CAREFUL NOT TO PEE YOUR PANTS
Remember today, no matter the situation, or how good or bad your day is that Jesus is your strength. God bless, and Jesus saves!

Thank you, in advance, to those of you who take a moment to leave a comment and/or fave my photo. I appreciate it tremendously.
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. – Henry David Thoreau (circa 1846–53)
Thoreau went into the woods to live a bare, sparse, and essential existence... no modern conveniences to help him make things easier, no creature comforts to lighten his load. He went into the woods to learn what it meant to really live this life as it is, free of all the man-made accoutrements that ‘take the life out of life’.
His idea was that all the things we’ve concocted/created to make life easier for us to live are the very same things that take the substance and essence out of living.
The Huntington:
A private, nonprofit institution, The Huntington was founded in 1919 by Henry E. Huntington, an exceptional businessman who built a financial empire that included railroad companies, utilities, and real estate holdings in Southern California.
Huntington was also a man of vision – with a special interest in books, art, and gardens. During his lifetime, he amassed the core of one of the finest research libraries in the world, established a splendid art collection, and created an array of botanical gardens with plants from a geographic range spanning the globe. These three distinct facets of The Huntington are linked by a devotion to research, education, and beauty.
In 1919, Henry and Arabella Huntington signed the indenture that transferred their San Marino property and collections to a nonprofit educational trust, creating The Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens, which hosts more than 500,000 visitors each year.

any unusual visual expereiences recently.
A hallucination, in the broadest sense, is a perception in the absence of a stimulus. In a stricter sense, hallucinations are defined as perceptions in a conscious and awake state in the absence of external stimuli which have qualities of real perception, in that they are vivid, substantial, and located in external objective space. The latter definition distinguishes hallucinations from the related phenomena of dreaming, which does not involve wakefulness; illusion, which involves distorted or misinterpreted real perception; imagery, which does not mimic real perception and is under voluntary control; and pseudohallucination, which does not mimic real perception, but is not under voluntary control. Hallucinations also differ from "delusional perceptions", in which a correctly sensed and interpreted genuine perception is given some additional (and typically bizarre) significance.
Hallucinations can occur in any sensory modality — visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, proprioceptive, equilibrioceptive, nociceptive, thermoceptive and chronoceptive.
A mild form of hallucination is known as a disturbance, and can occur in any of the senses above. These may be things like seeing movement in peripheral vision, or hearing faint noises and/or voices. Auditory hallucinations are very common in schizophrenia of the paranoid type. They may be benevolent (telling the patient good things about himself) or malicious, cursing the patient etc. Auditory hallucinations of the malicious type are frequently heard like people talking about the patient behind his back. Like auditory hallucinations, the source of their visual counterpart can also be behind the patient's back. Their visual counterpart is the feeling of being looked-stared at, usually with malicious intent. Not infrequently, auditory hallucinations and their visual counterpart are experienced by the patient together.
oh no! this is my 199th upload! only one more until i hit my limit :( i want pro!!
i've officially edited! :D

This is a very English design camera to be used specifically during the 2 "magic hours" of the day.
You may be surprised that this camera isn't about noise reduction or some other enhanced performance ability to maximize the two golden hours of the day although I do offer some token features to the mammon of technology junkies. However, this camera will slightly outperform during those highly sought after times. Specifically, a reminder-timer function filter and a filter to enhance the cloudy, diffused light of the magic hour are included.
But the main function of this camera to enhance the photographer's magic hour experience is that it is a specific kind of bar cabinet.
Drinking Sherry at 5pm extends the aura of the magic hour by replicating the special glow afterwards (or before depending on the season and location) through alcohol, which will also soften the blow of an unfruitful shooting session as well as the photographer's angst about the subpar quality of his or her equipment. After a Sherry (or three) the lack of razor sharp lines, resolution, lack of contrast and other digital imperfections will soften and fade into insignificance.
This is maybe the first camera in the world which is a double camera, built for two to use, and which provides drinks afterwards. I wanted to use the enclosure of the antique English Aptus to commemorate the fact that sherry at five p.m. which is mainly an English tradition. But I opted to use the very modern Leica D-Lux 4 instead, which is a much better fit, is slightly culty, and has a much shorter shutter lag. Leica has a special soft-blur function in this camera that allows a quasi-SLR look, with the focus on the main subject and some lovely Summicron-esque striations (if hip-shot) for its otherwise pleasing bokeh.
The design notes on the left side show an Art Deco red mahogany finish enclosure that pulls apart revealing a mirrored service tray which holds bottles of port, sherry, a gasogene, and a pair of drinking glasses. The two D-Lux4's are located on the extreme ends in separate compartments.
In my next upload I will publish
the sketch notes on the right (design no. 2) showing another two designs, derived from an antique 18th-century English Knife box that has been modified (as has been done for decades into stationery boxes) but to be a pinhole camera with a removable dark slide/cartridge. As the sketch shows, turning the tasseled key opens the lens cover for exposure. I have named this design to be "three cameras in two". This English knife box-cum-pinhole camera is meant to be displayed elegantly on top of a wooden sideboard in an office or dining room accompanied by service tray and other accessories. This suite of three cameras in two designs allows the very well appointed street photographer to do his outside street work with the Leica(s) and then to retire to a drawing room afterwards for a sherry with friends and some portrait shooting indoors.
The 16th century English name for Sherry was Sack.
This design is dedicated in camaraderie to the Flickr member Sam Dickey aka 'The Poetics of Sleep' for his very generous comments and inspirational ideas to me regarding the eternal conflict of high and low tech photography. I'll christen the camera and pour him a first virtual sherry at 5 p.m. EST three days from today.

Hakusai's famous wave rising from the first page of Benoit Mandelbrot's revolutionary text The Fractal Geometry of Nature. This image fascinated Mandelbrot and I thought this was a better tribute than a straightforward portrait. The most beautiful things in the world are ideas like those contained in this book.

I sat in my office, and thought to myself - how do we get the most terrified dog in this pack... the dog who we feared would die at any moment from the infection around his neck & head.
I drew my idea on a piece of paper, and texted it to Ester & Chyrise.
These two ladies built an enclosure that was just brilliant - exactly as I envisioned it.
I asked them to get lead him into the area with food so he gets used to the idea while we do the 2 hour drive back to the desert.
Sure enough, just an hour into the drive - they got him sealed!!!
This one was inspired by pictures of the Chrysler Building in New York. I think shading is mandatory to get it to work and not look too busy. Keep your domes tall and their sides straight for best results. I wasn't careful with my zigzag lines if you were wondering...

Met yet another American foundry I didn't know existed. Hello, Hobart & Robbins! Thank you, Letterform Archive.
Not much is known about them. Circuitous Root has only these two entries:

The prolific author crafted psychological mysteries of the old school, not far from Agatha Christie in the way that the dialogue moved along swiftly, and in the efficient use of simple language. In my opinion, Simenon uses description in a very filmic way that also is old fashioned.
"L'Affaire Saint Fiacre" was my first Maigret novel. The way this novel is crafted, with sharp and brief details, allows me the latitude that I need to think to weave a very specific design in which Maigret is not too far from Weegee's 1929 Coupe, but for this Parisian Police vehicle, I'm thinking of it more as a touring car which is more for comfort.
My only upgrade to the Maigret's series is to his wardrobe (which was a heavy overcoat), providing a bespoke gentleman's suit with sleeves that could easily be rolled up.
The idea of a traditional picnic hamper for a touring car is modified to be enjoyed inside the vehicle, albeit in a symbolic manner befitting the character of its single occupant.
Therefore, the cab interior functions as a toilette and also as a simple bar room.
The features:
1. A tray set to serve Madame Maigret's plum liqueur.
2. A fruit knife, for the enjoyment of seasonal fruit, such as oranges. This is kept inside Maigret's suit which is stowed in the back as shown. The coat will be thoroughly warmed when Maigret leaves the car.
3. French press coffee, some country bread with a napkin
4. An oil lamp
5. A tiny coal furnace.
6. A toiletry set of a water jug, hot water supply, towel and shaving set.
7. A winding rack of smoking pipes with small bowls, chicken feather cleaners and a large tobacco humidor
8. Green curtains and a cheery Neapolitan ochre wallpaper line the interior.
9. Driver, with a silver calling card tray in the front.
Maigret comes in from the bitter cold and removes his coat, unbuttons and rolls up his sleeves to enjoy the warm French country house comforts of a simple yet leisurely shave. Thereafter he will breakfast with coffee and bread, or receive a visitor for a drink and a pipeful of French tobacco.
