but the bluebell woods are closed to the public to help stop the spread of the corona virus.
I always look forward to this time of year when Arlington bluebell woods are open to the public and I can walk miles and miles in any direction and just see bluebells and trees. There’s a large refreshment barn there to run by different charities and raising £000’s each week. This year the flowers will have a long rest and come back even more beautiful in 2021.
As if to remind me of what I’m missing I came across this single clump of bluebells growing on top of the cliffs above the marina.......
Season of Touit - picture 17
Week 41, Wednesday
I’ve been using the Zeiss Touit 2.8/50M in different scenarios and while it is a lens with great versatility, it is also difficult to come up with right kind of pictures that demonstrates its marvelous macro capabilities and still be interesting enough from photography’s point of view. To demonstrate these macro capabilities I wanted to do at least one picture at minimum focusing distance just to have a concrete example how close one can get with 2.8/50M and what kind of magnification does it offer. So here is a regular housefly, the most common of all domestic flies at minimum focusing distance (and as filthy as they tend to be in the real world visible with human eyes). I had to approach this one very carefully not to scare it away and because of that I cannot say this picture is exactly at minimum focusing distance, but it’s there at least by 95 percent (the fly was about 8 mm long and I’ve cropped the picture just a little bit for better composition). I kind of like how this turned out even with as ordinary subject as this. With the original unresized file one can see individual photoreceptor units of the fly’s compound eyes and expect even greater details with newer sensors like the 24 mpix sensor inside the Sony Alpha 6000 (I’m working with older generation Sony Nex-5N which only has 16 mpix sensor). Not only does this picture exemplify the Touit 2.8/50M’s great 1:1 reproduction scale, it also shows how nicely the lens resolves even at aperture of f/14 where most other lenses would already had a diffraction kicked in. Also, notice the very smooth and buttery background bokeh which I absolutely love with this lens.
Looking at this picture as a simple photograph it brings up an interesting recollection from my childhood in me. Being a five or six years old I remember sitting in from of TV and watching a nature documentary about houseflies. The voice from documentary told that houseflies are very difficult to kill with a flyswatter because they see much larger field with their compound eyes and perceive time differently. Then the documentary showed a slow motion scene of typical apartment room where woman is trying to kill a fly with the flyswatter. Everything is slowed down to extreme and I remember seeing at least a flickering TV-screen and some people talking with their pitch lowered to unrecognizable sounds. Then the woman swings her hand with flyswatter and it takes from 10 to 20 seconds – of course she misses and the fly gets away. For some reason I remember that the claim about fly’s different perception of time had to do something about having so much more eyes than human. Despite of being all grown up today this sort of question of subjective perception of time has certainly fascinated me ever sense. Particularly one thing in this slow motion analogy intrigues me: it makes it look like the fly sees outside world in ‘slow motion’, but at the same time is able to think and reason within its inner cognitive world in ‘standard time’ – otherwise the explanation that the flyswatter misses because the fly has so much more time to see it and react to it, would be false. This sort of paradox of two different times filled up my mind as a child, but today I see it just a bad example of popularization of science. However, I’m still not sure how one should conceptualize it, but I’m pretty sure – if the phenomenon exist – it has nothing to do with eyes. Still, makes me wonder how this particular fly perceived me photographing it in that particular moment..

The things of Time are in connivance with eternity. The shadows serve You. The beasts sing to You before they pass away. The solid hills shall vanish like a worn out garment. All things change and die and disappear. Questions arrive, assume their actuality and disappear. In this hour I shall cease to ask them and silence shall be my answer. The world that Your love created, that the heat has distorted, that my mind is always misinterpreting, shall cease to interfere with our voices.
-Thomas Merton, Entering the Silence, pg. 487
For my theme project I was chosen to photograph "time" with what I believed it meant. To me time meant the continuous flow of life. Time is like water, it continues to flow in a linear motion. I attempted to capture the flow of water throughout this project. I played around with different kinds of water flows and different angles. My fourth photo was my interpretation of time standing still. Since I was to photograph time, I wanted to focus on linear/leading lines with the water, trees, edges of the water, and reflections. My main color scheme was warmer browns and all of my lighting sources are natural, taken during the late morning. Using my Canon EOS Rebel T5, I used a longer shutter speed to make the water turn soft to be able to emphasize the movement in water in relation to time.
84 printemps sur terre...et cet homme est seul.
Sa femme, après 60 années de mariage, est atteinte par la maladie de Parkinson.
Elle vit dans un centre spécialisé, loin de lui.
Je reste troublé devant cette sorte de résignation dont fait preuve ce vieil homme face à cette chose universelle et impalpable qu'on appelle le temps.
Today the Hereios of the We’re Here! Group are getting into Time after Time.
The BBC has gone Glasto-mad. There are currently 92 'episodes' on its I-Player, and there'll be more by tomorrow night. I wouldn't mind, but in a lot of the programmes the presenters quickly announce that they're going to show us the set that we've just finished watching on another channel. The Foo Fighters is a particular favourite, and I shall have to watch that later as my wife has seen it more than once.

We just got our tickets and exited the Richardson Station to note this arrival. We nailed a few of the steamup shots and gooned Henry when it came time to enter the yards through the depot. I already spied that the Rico vestibule business car brings up the rear. I just had to shoot the remaining standard gauge D&RGW (Dangerous & Rapidly Growing Worse) #683 Consolidation, officially a C28 or Consolidation with 28,000 pounds of tractive effort standing at the station. A consolidation engine configuration has two pilot wheels and eight drivers, 1 and four a side. The pilot wheel help buide a road engine into curves on the line. Made by Baldwin in September 1890, #11207, as D&RG 583, Class 113. It became D&RGW 683, Class C-28, in 1924. Bob Richardson of station name, was the original who bought old mountain railroad gear and stored them at his railroad motel in Alamosa, Colorado until he got the chance to start the Museum in Golden. It was he who lent me the only original of the D,L&NW photo, comment. I think he had railroads running in his veins. But for the tenacity of one man... The collection seems to expand regularly.
Be aware that as you exit the depot right here, you will see the separate, new CRRM library building where many researchers have poured over the books that would entail a king's ransom to procure. It's right behind me right here. Real foamers better figure on allotting serious time to that building. I have already read many of the valuable tomes to Mac Poor's "DSP&PRR" that no money can buy now and the "Colorado Midland" masterpiece. I even read the engineer's warning to the new kid fireman to never stick his head out of the cab while crossing the bridge over the Colorado (Grand) River at Aspen, Colorado. Suffice it to say it's wise to listen to your elders. Research is best done across these station tracks, even if only for engineers' warnings.
Eddie and I spaced the Christmas Steamup this year but he found there was a "Black on Track" costume event upcoming. He really wanted to see this steam up. We are REALLY waiting for the RSG #20 to return for a steamup. Donate generously at the CRRM.That day will be shoulder to shoulder at the Colorado Railroad Museum; keep an eye on upcoming events on their web site. Outlanders could target Colorado trips with the expectations of hitting an event here in Golden. The entire yard is accessible during weekdays. Someone will have already been here from your home town and/or country. These are the takes everyone is foaming at the mouth to see.
Outrageous light here for the bold early steam, IMHO. Steam is a winner in winter but the wind made it a blustery day. Are you ready for some steam? The first excursion was not quite full but is building on this blustery Saturday morning runby. The re-enactors are busy putting on a show now that we took our ride.
This lovely picture was shot in London with the kit lens.
I am lucky that this man stayed still enough for him to be sharp, yet the train moving created a nice blur.
The slow shutter speed really suited this picture.
"Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way"

I had time today to do whatever it was that I wanted. Felt so good. No rushing about! :)
I think I'm going to start taking more self portraits.. I need to build up my confidence on the other side of the camera :)
PLEASE WATCH THIS. I have two very talented friends who are incredible at filming. vimeo.com/16666951
Hope everyone is doing well.

Spurred on & inspired by lyrics from an Iron Maiden track 'Hallowed be thy Name':
"I'm waiting in my cold cell when the bell begins to chime,
Reflecting on my past life and it doesn't have much time,
'Cause at 5 o'clock they take me to the Gallows Pole,
The sands of time for me are running low".
