Notch-horned cleg fly female, on my car.
Playfully, I say that this is a typical female: she has the most beautiful eyes, but she wants your blood.
Those moments when I left the camera at home, I am glad to have my phone.....

Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength
that will endure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing
in the repeated refrains of nature -- the assurance that dawn comes after night,
and spring after winter. Rachel Carson

Yesterday my images past the 500,000 view mark, after a year and 3 weeks on Flickr. Many thanks to all my friends, contacts and the Flickr community at large. And a very special thank you (O’chau) to all those who follow my Hmong coverage.
Ive been in Vietnam now for a few weeks covering the Hmong (lunar) New Year celebration. The Black Hmong are the largest minority in the Sapa region, accounting for about 50% of the population of about 50,000.

Pls. note that I’m in Vietnam now, not much on line and Internet connection is slow and under the weather here. As I promised on my last trip, I will catch up commenting when I’m back home. Thanks for understanding.
Well, yes... Those of you who are following my work will have realized instantly that this is another photo from my Rosolina archive. It was the first and only time I have been at Rosolina Mare (Rosolina by the Sea), but I have been lucky enough to have two wonderful sunrise sessions there. And apparently my archive from this location has some more suprises in store, somehow (sadly) compensating for the very small trickle of new shots.
There had been a heavy thunderstorm during the night and the sky was still busy in the fiery aftermath of that turmoil, whereas the sea was very calm, already oblivious of the nocturnal gale.
The northern Adriatic Sea is pretty shallow, so even moderate low tides are able to unveal large sandbanks and a hidden world of sand ripples sculpted by the gentle, constant ebb and flow of the water near the coast.
One of the features I like of this view is the sensual spit of sand languidly stretching through the frame - like an ancient goddess lying down by the seashore enjoying the golden kiss of the Sun. However the detail that really captured me was that stranded tangle of reddish seaweed: a remnant of the thunderstorm left on the beach whispering to the sky its own part of the story while slowly dying shrouded in a veil of warm light - surrounded and permeated by all that almost unbearable beauty. So in posting this shot I hope that you can hear its feeble voice, too, and bear with you a memory of the tale of a stranded seaweed...
I have obtained this picture by blending an exposure bracketing [-1/0/+1 EV] by luminosity masks in the Gimp (EXIF data, as usual, refer to the "normal" exposure shot), then I added some final touches with Nik Color Efex Pro 4.
I am happy to join the Gimpers' community in celebrating the recent releasing of the Gimp 2.10
Finished my SHIP for the year just in time!
For those of you unaware, SHIPtember is an annual event that challenges participants to create a space SHIP (Super Huge Investment in Parts, minimum length of 100 studs) in a single month. I knew I wanted to participate this year, but let the first few days of September slide by without getting started. Which made things very tight time-wise, especially since the end of the month has been busy for me with Skaerbaek and other things.
Glad to have it done now! It is quite solid and can be swooshed with a single hand – though it’s heavy enough to be uncomfortable to handle that way for extended periods 😀
I will try to post a Build Log eventually as I took a lot of WIP photos that never got posted due to time constraints. Thanks everyone for your encouragement during the build process!
This year, my primary inspiration was one of my all time favorite SHIPs: Pierre’s Comarca Class Battleship.
Length: 104 Studs
Weight: 2.8kg (6.2 pounds)
Build Time: 25 days.

as stressful as it could be
but better than anything else
my sister, film
I could neither take photos nor jump on the trampoline after getting up because it rained and I felt like not eating a thing all day because I have eaten too much the night before.
my sister came over and I spent my day working off the to do list my mum wrote me as we’re currently cleaning up the whole house.
I now have a french pen pal and realized that my summer doesn’t have a definite end for now.
And we debate between those possible solutions. And by the process of debate, we pick the best idea. That competition between good ideas from both sides about real problems in the real country should result in our country having better choices, better options, than if only one side is really working on the hard stuff. And if the Republican Party and the conservative movement and the conservative media is stuck in a vacuum-sealed door-locked spin cycle of telling each other what makes them feel good and denying the factual, lived truth of the world, then we are all deprived as a nation of the constructive debate about competing feasible ideas about real problems :-(

What are all those aircraft doing to all my lovely star trails. Those vandals! And who made the sky a muddy brown?!
There was no moon on this night so all the light is supplied by light leakage from the 7 million inhabitants of the San Francisco Bay Area - yes, even the light on the face of the mountain is from light pollution.
The brown resulted because the exposures were started later in the evening - long after twilight. Without the moon to "blue up" the sky the stray light of low pressure sodium vapor lamps and tungsten lights works its muddy deed. When I get a few months I may try to REMOVE all of those aircraft trails from the SFO and OAK airport it seems, however, that it's like trying to paint out graffiti on a Los Angeles Freeway...
If you want to know more about Mission Peak I wrote a lovely article on my blog.
If you're wondering "Steven, how do you get these long exposures late at night - the park closes at 10 pm" the answer is: I'm already home asleep! I make my camera do the work by itself. If you do happen to see a camera all by itself in Mission Peak Preserve... please leave it alone - it doesn't take well to strangers ;-)

Hyacinth Bucket "It's pronounced Bouquet" was fond of saying weak as water when someone was acting in a weak or indifferent way.
10:30 last nigh (2330) a thunderclap broke loose, enough to shake the windows in the house. All right, I thought, the storms have arrived and I'm going to catch them. I headed out to my local spot and set up, anticipating the great show that was coming up.
Unfortunately the great storm turned out to be "weak as water" and this is the best of what I got. I called the pursuit at 11:30 (2330) and headed back home, once again disappointed in the show that Mother Nature had decided to put on. Hopefully she'll get her act together and give the viewing audience the show they deserve.
The weather guesser is calling for storms today so with any luck I'll have something better to present tomorrow!
Those two rocks!!
You have to get the tide right, the time of year right fort the sun to be in the right place, which is in the (Autumn), then you have to hope for the right weather. Oh plus you need to have the day off work! So far after three years of trying this is my best shot. But by no means quite right.

Some people go through a process similar to bereavement, where they experience a range of emotions including shock, anger, and denial, before eventually coming to accept their condition.

The new set 75311 (Imperial Armored Marauder) has been transformed into a Classic Space version, complete with revised guns instead of those annoying flick-fire things. All eight hatches still open, but I couldn't use space seats inside this one, but there are plenty (four per vessel) of 2x2 modified tiles with just enough room for air-tanks in the model... at least I hope that will be the case!
I just need to buy two copies of my digital file as shown, as that's at least $15 total cheaper than buying two sets and recoloring them after the fact using Bricklink. The 4 x 2 Classic space logo print is missing, but that's ok - I don't mind.

Feeling nostalgic again and so I thought of sharing this shot from my archive of scanned photos. This was taken at The Rocks Markets in July 2001. It was my second time visiting Sydney and this was one of the destinations of our 2-week budget trip (Melbourne - Cairns - Gold Coast - Brisbane - Sydney - Melbourne). I do wish I can turn back the time and enjoy this trip all over again.
the caption, at the bottom right of the left photo, reads:
"Partinico, September. Ignazio Buttitta recites "Portella delle ginestre" and "Turiddu Carnevale" at Castellaccio, the promontory overlooking Partinico. Among those who listen to him there is also Danilo Dolci, with his son Cielo. Bertrand Russel, La Pira, Abbot Pierre, and Guttuso sent Danilo Dolci messages of solidarity";
in the photo on the right, Danilo Dolci.
(Two original newspaper sheets of the time, preserved by Daphne Phelps, who hosted Danilo Dolci in Taormina; Cuseni House archive).

A story of Sicily: the Sicilian Gandhi (but he was not Sicilian ...).
This photographic story is connected, at least in part, with the previous one, whose link is represented by the nephew of the painter Robert Kitson, Miss Daphne Phelps: in life she was a psychiatric social worker (she collaborated with Anna Freud, daughter by Sigmund Freud), on the death of his uncle in 1948 he moved to Sicily to take care of Casa Cuseni, having inherited it: initially he wanted to sell it and then return to England, instead he ended up falling in love with Taormina and Sicily, deciding to stay there for the rest of his life. Daphne ran Casa Cuseni welcoming paying guests, there are many illustrious names of artists, writers, well-known personalities who have stayed there: Danilo Dolci was one of these guests, and it is precisely about him that I wish to speak. He was born in 1924 in Sesana (Trieste), after a somewhat eventful life, in 1952 he moved to Trappeto (between Palermo and Trapani), a country among the poorest and most disadvantaged in Italy: that same year the first of numerous fasts, going to bed and fasting in the bed of a child who died of malnutrition, a protest that will end only when the authorities undertake to build a sewer. Danilo Dolci continues with numerous initiatives, from the publication of a book ("Banditi a Partinico", which makes public opinion aware of the poor living conditions of western Sicily, to this book and many others will follow), to the "strike at reverses ”, when the workers went on strike, hundreds of unemployed began to work to reactivate an abandoned municipal road, an initiative that was then stopped by the police; Dolci also initiates an activity of denunciation of the mafia phenomenon and its relations with politics. There are numerous certificates of esteem and solidarity that he receives from important personalities from Italy and abroad, but despite this, for others Danilo Dolci is a dangerous subversive, to be hindered, denigrated, locked up in prison. Yet Dolci does not pose as a guru, boss, or teacher, his working method is based on the conviction that change is based on the involvement and direct participation of those concerned, his idea of progress enhances local culture and skills; he tries, working closely with the people and the most disadvantaged and oppressed groups of western Sicily, to free the dormant creativity in every person, calling this research "maieutic", a term coming from philosophy, precisely from Socratic maieutics: it is "the 'art of the midwife ", every educational act is to bring to light all the inner potentialities of the one who wants to learn, like a mother who wants to give birth to her own child from her womb, so no to notions imparted a priori, yes to help the student to bring their knowledge to light, using dialogue as a tool; however, Socratic maieutics is unidirectional, while in Danilo Dolci's "reciprocal maieutics", knowledge comes out of experience and its sharing, therefore it presupposes the reciprocity of communication. During meetings with farmers and fishermen, the idea was born to build the dam on the Jato River, which is important for the economic development of the area, but also to remove a powerful weapon in the hands of the mafia, an instrument of power which controlled the few available water resources; however the request for "water for all" will be heavily hindered, popular mobilizations and long fasts will be necessary to finally see the project realized: now the dam exists, and others have been built, thus modifying the lives of thousands of people, with the development of numerous companies and cooperatives. Among the many activities of Dolci, thanks to the contribution of international experts, the experience of the Mirto Educational Center, attended by hundreds of children, should be mentioned. Returning to Daphne Phelps and Casa Cuseni, here is a lithograph by Tono Zancanaro, dedicated to the birth of one of Danilo Dolci's daughters, but, among the most important, there is a correspondence between the pacifist philosopher Bertrand Russel and Daphne Phelps, in which the English thinker invited Robert Kitson's niece to participate in the gatherings of progressive intellectuals and literary and scientific personalities of the time, among them, besides Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre and Carlo Levi, there was Danilo Dolci, sociologist, educator, still recognized today as one of the most important figures of nonviolence worldwide.
post Scriptum:
- the images with Danilo Dolci come from the Casa Cuseni archive: they are cuttings from original periodicals, often full pages, from English newspapers, carefully preserved by Miss Daphne Phelp; these images were also taken by photographing some pages of James McNeish's book, "Fire under the ashes - The life of Danilo Dolci";
- the photographs taken in various countries of Sicily, are prior to the covid-19 pandemic;
- thanks to the surgeon colleague dr. Franco Spadaro and his kind wife, Mrs. Mimma Cundari, owners of Casa Cuseni (declared in 1998, Italian National Monument), for their hospitality and availability, having made the Danilo Dolci archive available to me.
Una storia di Sicilia: il Gandhi siciliano (ma siciliano non era…).
Questo racconto fotografico, è connesso, almeno in parte, con quello precedente, il cui anello di congiunzione è rappresentato dalla nipote del pittore Robert Kitson, la signorina Daphne Phelps: lei nella vita era una assistente sociale psichiatrica (lei collaborava con Anna Freud, figlia di Sigmund Freud), alla morte dello zio nel 1948 si trasferì in Sicilia per occuparsi di Casa Cuseni, avendola ereditata: inizialmente la voleva vendere per poi ritornarsene in Inghilterra, invece finì con l’innamorarsi di Taormina e della Sicilia, decidendo di restarvi per il resto della sua vita. Daphne gestiva Casa Cuseni accogliendo ospiti paganti, numerosi sono i nomi illustri di artisti, scrittori, note personalità che vi hanno alloggiato: Danilo Dolci è stato uno di questi ospiti, ed è proprio di lui che desidero parlare. Egli nasce nel 1924 a Sesana (Trieste), dopo una vita un po’ movimentata, nel 1952 si trasferisce a Trappeto (tra Palermo e Trapani), un paese tra i più poveri e disagiati d’Italia: quello stesso anno inizia il primo di numerosi digiuni, coricandosi e digiunando nel letto di un bimbo morto per denutrizione, protesta che terminerà solo quando le autorità si impegneranno a costruire una fogna. Danilo Dolci prosegue con numerose iniziative, dalla pubblicazione di un libro (“Banditi a Partinico”, che mette a conoscenza dell’opinione pubblica delle misere condizioni di vita della Sicilia occidentale, a questo libro poi ne seguiranno molti altri), allo “sciopero alla rovescia”, quando i lavoratori fecero sciopero, centinaia di disoccupati si misero a lavorare per riattivare una strada comunale abbandonata, iniziativa però poi fermata dalla polizia; Dolci avvia anche una attività di denuncia del fenomeno mafioso e dei suoi rapporti con la politica. Numerosi sono gli attestati di stima e solidarietà che egli riceve da importanti personalità provenienti dall’Italia e dall’estero, ma nonostante ciò per altri Danilo Dolci è un pericoloso sovversivo, da ostacolare, denigrare, chiudere in prigione. Eppure Dolci non si atteggia né a santone, capo, od un maestro, il suo metodo di lavoro è basato sulla convinzione che il cambiamento è basato sul coinvolgimento e diretta partecipazione degli interessati, la sua idea di progresso valorizza la cultura e le competenze locali; egli cerca, lavorando a stretto contatto con la gente e le fasce più disagiate ed oppresse della Sicilia occidentale, di liberare la creatività sopita in ogni persona, chiamando tale ricerca “maieutica”, termine proveniente dalla filosofia, precisamente dalla maieutica socratica: è “l’arte della levatrice”, ogni atto educativo è far venire alla luce tutte le potenzialità interiori di colui che vuole imparare, al pari di una madre che vuol far nascere la propria creatura dal suo grembo, quindi no a nozioni impartite a priori, si ad aiutare lo studente a portare alla luce la propria conoscenza, usando il dialogo come strumento; però, la maieutica socratica è unidirezionale, mentre nella “maieutica reciproca” di Danilo Dolci, la conoscenza viene fuori dall’esperienza e dalla sua condivisione, quindi presuppone la reciprocità della comunicazione. Nel corso di riunioni con contadini e pescatori, nasce l’idea di costruire la diga sul fiume Jato, importante per lo sviluppo economico della zona, ma anche togliere un’arma potente in mano alla mafia, che faceva del controllo delle poche risorse idriche disponibili uno strumento di potere, però la richiesta di “acqua per tutti” verrà pesantemente ostacolata, saranno necessarie le mobilitazioni popolari, lunghi digiuni, per vedere infine realizzato il progetto: ora la diga esiste, ed altre sono state poi realizzate, modificando in tal modo la vita di migliaia di persone, con lo svilupparsi di numerose aziende e cooperative. Da menzionare, tra le tante attività di Dolci, grazie al contributo di esperti internazionali, l’esperienza del Centro Educativo di Mirto, frequentato da centinaia di bambini. Ritornando a Daphne Phelps e Casa Cuseni, qui è presente una litografia di Tono Zancanaro, dedicata alla nascita di una delle figlie di Danilo Dolci, ma, cosa tra le più importanti, esiste un carteggio tra il filosofo pacifista Bertrand Russel e Daphne Phelps, nel quale il pensatore inglese invitava la nipote di Robert Kitson a partecipare ai raduni di intellettuali progressisti e personalità letterarie e scientifiche dell’epoca, tra di loro, oltre Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre e Carlo Levi, c’era Danilo Dolci, sociologo, educatore, ancora oggi riconosciuto tra le figure di massimo rilievo della nonviolenza a livello mondiale.
post scriptum:
- le immagini con Danilo Dolci provengono dall'archivio di Casa Cuseni: sono ritagli di giornali originali dell'epoca, spesso pagine intere, provenienti da quotidiani inglesi, accuratamente conservati dalla signorina Daphne Phelp; tali immagini sono state realizzate fotografando anche alcune pagine del libro di James McNeish, "Fire under the ashes - The life of Danilo Dolci";
- le fotografie realizzate in diversi paesi della Sicilia, sono antecedenti alla pandemia da covid-19;
- si ringrazia il collega chirurgo dott. Franco Spadaro e la sua gentile consorte, signora Mimma Cundari, proprietari di Casa Cuseni (dichiarata nel 1998, Monumento Nazionale Italiano), per la loro ospitalità e disponibilità, avendo messo a mia disposizione l'archivio relativo a Danilo Dolci.
Those who have seen my last couple of postings (Red-bellied Woodpeckers) may recognize the stump this Starling is sitting on. Having finally retired, I now have the time to concentrate on taking pictures.
I have now visited this spot in the woods for the last week, spent 4-6 hours sitting in the Ram (yes, I'm inherently lazy) and have taken about 12,000 images. Truth be told, I'm starting to see this stump in my dreams arrggghhh!
However, the action has been unreal. I will share a number of "stump" images in the next few days. To me its a lesson in patience - pick a spot and the birds will come.
Sony ILCE 7R : 135mm Sigma Telemax YS f/2.8
The Telemax is a very unusual old lens with two focusing helicals, that enable close-focusing down to a 1:3 image ratio. This facility is rare in a lens of this focal length.
Currently, I'm really missing those beautiful summer mornings on which the intense light brings out all the colors of nature and opens the possibility to create some amazing bokehs...
Those names are written in Chinese to show appreciation to the ones who gifted the temple things such as money, incense and stuff in general.
Chùa Bà Thiên Hậu (The Pagoda of the Lady Thien Hau) is a Chinese style temple located on Nguyễn Trãi Street in the Cho Lon (Chinatown), District 5 of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It is dedicated to Thiên Hậu, the Lady of the Sea ("Tian Hou" as transcribed from the Chinese), who is also known as "Mazu".
I recommend zooming in with L then tapping (or just tapping the picture on an iPad) to see the detail
For those who knows my photostream, it might have been surprising to don't see any yellow Suntron Rover yet...
Actually I wanted to build at least one Suntron Rover for this FebRovery, but everyday I found another idea in other colors/themes, and so...
But finally here's the mandatory Suntron Rover, hope you'll like it ;-)
Those of you who know a bit about me know I'm a Solaris system/security administrator. For this mission I decided to pay tribute to Sun Microsystems by using their home in SL; Sun Pavilion.
day 300
1. I can't believe I've taken 300 pictures for this project.
2. I can't believe I only have 65 photos to go.
3. I can't believe there's only 65 days left in the year.
My friend asked me today if I was going to do another 365 project next year. In 2010 I did the 365 on a whim and it completely changed my life. In 2011 I did a 52 week project because I was scared I would stop doing photography if I didn't do a project. And this year I did it to document senior year and college. That's three years in a row of doing a year-long project. So I don't think I'm going to do another project for a while. But as I told my friend, I have so many photo ideas that I'm sure won't make it into the 365 that I'll still have a lot of things that I want to photograph. Plus, I want to broaden my client work and I love the creative process and photography itself that I'll never be able to stop. And I don't want to anyways. I love writing and art, but photography (and especially digital) has an instant gratification that not many things has. It will never cease to blow my mind how emotional and cinematic photos can be and how powerful they are. I have been thinking a lot about what my purpose in life is, and while I love doing a lot of artistic things, writing and photography are definitely my two passions. I feel bad for the writing side as that was my first love and my first calling, and I hardly ever do it (save for this blog) and I hardly ever talk about it. Once the 365 is over I definitely want to incorporate my writing into my photography, because I don't want to be neglectful of one and focus solely on the other.

Those who know me and are my online friends will know I’ve had a Flickr profile and photostream almost from the very beginning of its existence. You’ll also know that recently after Flickr took the decision to try and enforce their profit-making on my efforts that I decided to leave.
In typical style though (and after a lot of hassle getting my profile reset to ‘safe’ with Flickr) I decided to keep a small presence here, with some ‘vanilla’ samples of my photos which are really here just for those whose photos I ‘like’ to be able to see who’s liking them.
So although my active presence here on Flickr has all but ended its not all bad news. Upon deciding on a new home online I’ve recently undertaken the business of moving my main active presence to Fetlife. Not only have I fallen upon a community who are right on exactly the same wavelength as me, but also (and partly because of recent events here on Flickr) it’s encouraged me to share all of my X Rated content I never shared on here.
If anyone wants to join or find me there then please send me a message and I’ll drop you the link. If not, then the few photos you see here are kind of all you’ll get for the foreseeable… I’m done with Flickr for now 😘
A very strong wind storm hit Vancouver this afternoon. Throughout the day, I kept hearing noises from shaking trees. When I got home, I decided to just grab a camera and take some shots before heading out to pick my girlfriend up from work.
Hopefully, this wind storm didn't damage those cherry blossom.
