Inspired by this much more wonderful photo :D
I wasn't sure whether to upload the main photo with or without the text, so the one in the comments shall be the one with text :P
Anyway, I wanted to ask you guys a favor. I was wondering if anyone can help spread the word about the flood here the Philippines? It's gotten pretty bad, to put it lightly. Click here for pictures. Any support at all would be great. I included a link in the comments for you guys to download the photo. You can post it on your stream, Facebook, print it out - you can do anything you want with really. I'm hoping it'll get the word out more easily (especially internationally) and I was hoping this would get explored so more people can help out. So yeah, feel free to download it. :) Also, I realize this isn't exactly the manliest photo out there, but even linking back here or writing about the flood in your descriptions would help a lot :D
Here are a couple of links for donations if any of you'd like to:
Global Giving (You can even donate through text here!)
Red Cross (For Globe users here in the PH, you can text RED plus the amount to 2899 to donate(: )
Some people are also using hashtags on twitter to show support. Click here to reblog on Tumblr, and Facebook's a great way to spread the word too. Any help at all would be much appreciated. :D God bless you all <3
I am very proud of this shot, I think it is among my top 10. The photos has been taken a few days ago in a very special foggy dawn, full of silence and bliss for the loving Nature.
Dedicated to all the ones that dare to wake up at night knowing that the sunrise will be their reward.

Perle veramente naturali
Sono molto contento di questa foto, penso sia fra le mie migliori dieci. La foto è stata scattata alcuni giorni fa durante un'alba speciale, piena di nebbia e di contemplazione profonda per la Natura amata.
Dedicata a tutti colori che amano alzarsi di notte sapendo che la loro ricompensa arriva al sorgere del sole.

Qui non c'è assolutamente nessuna elaborazione, eccetto che per il ritaglio e l'apposizione della firma.

I'll bet you didn't see the flowers until you read the title and looked closer. Nope, this is not quite how I visualised it, so it just is what it is. Details about it can be found on my blog: freezeframe03.blogspot.com/2012/02/bird-blooms-it-looked-... I'll be re-visiting this idea.
This image is will be in the #Connected2018 exhibition at the Patchings Art Centre next week. Really looking forward to meeting other photographers and hearing the photographic talks.

Một ví dụ điển hình cho việc làm không nghỉ. Cả cái text cũng của texture T_____T
Got takeout from Panda Express for dinner tonight. I had to chuckle when I opened my fortune cookie. Why don't I ever get one that says, "great wealth is in your future" ?
for 7DoS: the idea I had for today didn't quite work. I might get time to adapt it for tomorrow ... meanwhile, here's another from my archives

Fotos der evangelischen Kirche Veckerhagen im hessischen Weserbergland
One of my faves from the trip to London, and I had completely forgotten about taking it. Luckily took two exposures as the first was massively out of focus. I think this one is acceptable though, given the low light levels.
i found this sign near my house and I really don't think it should be hung on the front of a church!

How could I have forgotten that I have had this since a flickr-walk with the very lovely and very talented knautia in January, who showed me where this stencil was to be found...
An Open Letter to Myra Borshoff Cook, Tour Organizer for Jack Kerouac's On the Road Manuscript Scroll
Dear Ms. Borshoff Cook:
Recently I wrote an article expressing my displeasure over not being able to photograph Jack Kerouac's classic manuscript "On the Road," currently on display at the San Francisco Public (sic) Library. The current owner of the document, Indianapolis Colt's owner Jim Irsay, has publicly stated his opinion that the scroll "belongs to the people." Still, irrespective of this "belongs to the people" assertion, you, as the organizer of the current tour of the scroll, apparently have decided not to allow photography of the document.
You have responded to my original article claiming that although Mr. Irsay owns the manuscript, he does not own the "copyright" to On The Road. This argument is hollow and does not ring true and well wouldn't Jack be proud. You go on to say that "therefore," you "had to work with the lawyers representing the holders of the copyright and that is why the photography policy was set." That's good information to consider, as I'm sure Jack would have been sure to consult with the attorneys of the railroad cars that he would hop back when he was alive.
Your copyright argument is flawed. I'm not sure how familiar you are with cameras these days, but as a photographer I can assure you that as the scroll is presently displayed, no one would be able to take more than a snippet of text, and only with a macro lens at best. You cannot shoot the words of the scroll clearly underneath the plexi-glass that you have over the document and to shoot through the glass would require sitting a lens on the glass which rests less than a foot from the document itself.
Although you cite "copyright" as your objection I would remind you of the general concept of "fair use," Nolo Press has a nice write up on it. "Fair use is based on the belief that the public is entitled to freely use portions of copyrighted materials for purposes of commentary and criticism. The fair use privilege is perhaps the most significant limitation on a copyright owner's exclusive rights." Further, taking snippets of text from copyrighted materials and quoting them is in fact fair use.
As you are well aware, it would be difficult if not impossible to copy large portions of the text of this document. Further, someone possessing photographs of the document still in no way reduces the copyright holders rights. The copyright on this document is not on the document itself but on the words contained therin. It would be no different than if I quoted from a paperback version or took a photograph of a paperback version of Jack's classic text.
So in the spirit of fair use I have decided to disregard your and the San Francisco Public Library's "no photography" policy and have in fact taken photos of your closely guarded scroll that per Irsay "belongs to the people." As I'm sure Jack didn't heed the no jumping rail cars signs I'll also disregard your "no photography allowed" signs. If, as you suggest, your copyright argument holds I'm sure that I'll be hearing from your lawyers shortly regarding my illegal use of copyrighted material. That's what I thought.
