A very different style for me with this photo taken this morning during the morning rush. It was a very wet start to the day and I have seen some really nice photos of the clocks in Canary Wharf from this spot. Applied a little double exposure magic to create this effect.

Better take time. for yourselves. Too much time spent at work and not enough time with yourselves and your families. Tic Toc and time continues its journey taking you aimlessly with it.
In 1904 the people of Nambia rebelled against the German colonizers, who retaliated with genocidal ferocity by killing over 60,000 of the Herero people.
In 1908 a Namibian railroad worker named Zacherias Lewala was shoveling railroad tracks clear of creeping sand dunes when he saw some stones shining in the low light. Lewala's German employer identified them for what they were: diamonds. Lewala was not paid or rewarded for his find.
Soon hordes of prospectors descended on the area. By 1912 a town had sprung up Kolmanskop producing a million carats of diamonds a year. Tribespeople displaced from their land by the zone's construction were often employed as laborers in diamond mines, forced to live on cramped, barracks-like compounds for months at a time.
But it wasn't to last. Intensive mining depleted the area by the 1930s and the town's fate was sealed when the richest diamond fields ever known were found on the beach terraces to the south. Once again greed drove the townspeople in droves, abandoning homes and possessions.
And why are the houses painted in these vivid colors you ask? It was to keep the German women happy far from their homeland in a place where the men folk worked in the mines all day and were hardly ever home. And if you are wondering why no one lives there anymore...cause its just bad karma :)
Mummy says we have to be clean when we go to Merica to meet our friends and so we had a big bath with all towels and rubber ducks and things and we got fresher and fluffy and so we will look our best when we get there.
I cannot promise very much.
I give you the images I know.
Lie still with me and watch.
We laugh and we touch.
I promise you love. Time will not take that away.

Time is free, but it's priceless. You can't own It, but you can use it. You can't keep it, but you can spend it. Once you've lost it you can never get it back. Quote by Harvey MacKay.

لاتضع وقتك في قيل وقال.. وخلاف و خصام و جدال.
إنما عمرك يا صاح زمان..فيه أيامك تطوى والليالي.
لا تبدده ضياعا و هباء .. إنه أثمن من در و مال.
أرجح الناس جنانا من بنى.. في مدى العمر صروحا للمعالي
