ARTIST STATEMENT
Identity is built upon a foundation of beliefs and concepts that are at a constant flux with reality. how the body is covered and arranged in space and time conveys our methods of communicating who we are. Taking that away in the context of art gives us mental clarity to think about ourselves without material. Through photographic study, this series abstracts
the nude human form.
This college series was inspired by the works of Imogen Cunningham, Edward Weston & Chloe Rosser. Art Culture has presented nudity through many mediums. As a result. Controversy continues to surround the subject matter as many still reject this art form on moral grounds. When we encounter art that makes us uncomfortable, we must ask ourselves why. Nkosi focuses on the naked frame in a completely unorthodox way presenting the body outside of the scope of any sexual nature to elicit true inquiry and reflection.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Chance Nkosi Gomez known initiated by H.H Swami Jyotirmayanda as Sri Govinda walks an integral yogic path in which photography is the primary creative field of expression. The medium was introduced during sophomore year of high school by educator Dr. Devin Marsh of Robert Morgan Educational Center. Coming into alignment with light, its nature and articulating the camera was the focus during that time. Thereafter while completing a Photographic Technology Degree, the realization of what made an image “striking” came to the foreground of the inner dialogue. These college years brought forth major absorption and reflection as an apprentice to photographer and educator Tony A. Chirinos of Miami Dade College. The process of working towards a singular idea of interest and thus building a series became the heading from here on while the camera aided in cultivating an adherence to the present moment. The viewfinder resembles a doorway to the unified field of consciousness in which line, shape, form, color, value, texture all dissolve. It is here that the yogi is reminded of sat-chit-ananda (the supreme reality as all-pervading; pure consciousness). As of May 2024 Govinda has completed his 300hr yoga teacher training program at Sattva Yoga Academy studying from Master Yogi Anand Mehrotra in Rishikesh, India, Himalayas. This has strengthened his personal Sadhana and allows one to carry and share ancient Vedic Technology leading others in ultimately directing their intellect to bloom into intuition. As awareness and self-realization grows so does the imagery that is all at once divine in the mastery of capturing and controlling light. Over the last seven years he has self-published six photographic books, Follow me i’ll be right behind you (2017), Sonata - Minimal Study (2018), Birds Singing Lies (2018), Rwanda (2019), Where does the body begin? (2019) & Swayam Jyotis (2023). Currently, Govinda is employed at the Leica Store Miami as a camera specialist and starting his journey as a practitioner of yoga ॐ
Part of the sPHENIX detector, the Time Projection Chamber allows nuclear physicists to measure the momentum of charged particles streaming from collisions produced in Brookhaven Lab's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). sPHENIX is a radical makeover of the PHENIX experiment, one of the original detectors designed to collect data at RHIC. It includes many new components that significantly enhance scientists’ ability to learn about quark-gluon plasma (QGP), an exotic form of nuclear matter created in RHIC’s energetic particle smashups.
My sister explained that since newborns shouldn't be allowed to sleep face down, they need to be given the opportunity to exercise the "crawl muscules." So Leia gets a good deal of "Tummy Time" every day -- and she loves every minute of it.

The Pirate 'island' is based off of the Black Seas Barracuda set. The basic design is inspired by the UCS Flagship, but longer and with two gun decks.
Z'hind is practicing his moves because everyone knows that Drow have to always be ready to fight since you never know what creatures lurk in the darkness.
Waiting at Stonebow is open topper Leyland Olympian Alexander RH E308 MSG on the citysightseeing tour route. Time is running out for these oldies now as the vehicles to replace these have already been selected, with one having made a fleeting visit to York for two or three days earlier this month before heading to Keighley for an unknown reason. In peak season the tour route generally uses 5 buses, so it may be that one or perhaps two Olympians are kept as spare buses.
Probably, engines on our tail #232 were still spinning when I took this picture. Watch that thing in the back:) - we were on the ground in just PERFECT TIME.
It seems fitting that a photo/story titled Time/Space Displacement should continue from Thanksgiving till Christmas Eve. So to all who see/read this, Merry Christmas, this is my gift to you! I had mentioned that I could see some type of pattern under the residue on the MonoDisc, and boy was I right. Also, the hole seen in previous photo has now filled itself in completely. This is obviously a slow pains taking process and there are many layers to reveal, but this is a start. More to come tomorrow, it’s Christmas!
Nunnington Hall in Ryedale, North Yorkshire
It was William Parr, 1st Marquess of Northampton, brother of queen consort Catherine Parr, who built the oldest parts of the surviving house of Nunnington, which now form part of the west front. Following the forfeiture of the estate after his death in 1571 (for his part in setting Lady Jane Grey on the throne), Nunnington was again subject to let. One of the tenants was Dr Robert Huicke who was physician to both Catherine Parr and Elizabeth I. Dr Huicke was to be the one to tell the Queen that she would never have children. Huicke never lived at Nunnington however and the estate was managed by stewards. The sub-lease was granted to Thomas Norcliffe in 1583 and the family made many alterations over the next sixty years.
In 1603 George Watkins and others were granted a lease of the manor for thirty-one years. After 25 years, however, it was granted to Edward Ditchfield and others of the City of London, who sold it the same year for £3,687 to John Holloway who held the manor in 1630. By 1655 the manor had been sold for £9,500 by Humphrey Thayer to Ranald Graham, a merchant of Lewisham. Ranald was succeeded by his nephew Sir Richard Graham of Netherby, who was created Viscount Preston in 1681. He was attainted in 1689 for attempting to join James II in France and his lands and property were confiscated, but later returned after he was pardoned. He was succeeded by his son and heir Edward, the 2nd Viscount and he in turn by his son Charles, 3rd and last Viscount Preston. Charles' heirs on his death in 1739 were his aunts, Mary Graham and Catherine, Lady Widdrington, who were granted joint possession of the manor of Nunnington in 1748. Mary died unmarried and Lady Widdrington left her estates to Sir Bellingham Graham, Bt., of Norton Conyers. The property then descended in the Norton Conyers Graham family until 1839, when it was sold to William Rutson of Newby Wiske, the son of a Liverpool merchant.
The hall was inherited in 1920 by Rustons' great-niece Margaret Rutson, who had married Ronald D'Arcy Fife. They undertook a major renovation of the property in the 1920s using the architect Walter Brierley.
An officer of the Specialist Search Unit of Greater Manchester Police’s Tactical Aid Unit conducts a security search of one of the harder to reach areas of the Manchester Central Convention Centre prior to a major political conference.
The unit, which is equipped with a wide range of specialist equipment, can provide officers to plan and conduct searches and other tasks in hazardous environments. These may range from areas considered dangerous due to height such as radio masts, crags, tall buildings or close to any unprotected edge. They can also advise on access into confined areas, whether a flooded cellar, silo, pit, culvert or other location that would present significant danger to other officers.
Officers of the unit also coordinate searches of major crime scenes and large scale searches for missing persons amongst a wide range of other duties.

Combine the shallow-depth-of-field with Sony NEX-6 latest face-tracking auto focus, and you can see how the moving video keeps the model's pretty blue eyes in focus, while blurring the background! The Sony Alpha NEX 6 has much better bokeh than the cameras I have been using! :)
She was tall, thin, fit, toned, defined, and beautiful! Pretty blue eyes and firery red hair!
Modeling the Gold 45 Revolver(TM) Gold'N'Virtue(TM) Bikini!
Nikon D800E Photographs of a Beautiful Sandy-Blonde/Brunette Swimsuit Bikini Model shot with the new Nikon D800 and Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor Zoom Lens.
Shot in both RAW & JPEG, but all these photos are RAWs finished in Lightroom 5.3 ! :)
May the HJM Goddesses guide, inspire, and exalt ye along yer heroic artistic journey!
All the Best on Your Epic Hero's Journey from Johnny Ranger McCoy!
Modeling the black & gold "Gold 45 Revolver" Gold'N'Virtue swimsuits with the main equation to Moving Dimensions Theory on the swimsuits: dx4/dt=ic. Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! :) You can read more about my research and Hero's Journey Physics here:
herosjourneyphysics.wordpress.com/ MDT PROOF#2: Einstein (1912 Man. on Rel.) and Minkowski wrote x4=ict. Ergo dx4/dt=ic--the foundational equation of all time and motion which is on all the shirts and swimsuits. Every photon that hits my Nikon D800e's sensor does it by surfing the fourth expanding dimension, which is moving at c relative to the three spatial dimensions, or dx4/dt=ic!
The books behind the pretty goddess on the Malbu bluff and surfboard are The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon, Homer's Iliad, Homer's Odyssey, Shakespeare, and Herman Melville's Moby Dick! My favorite books! Will have some video of the pretty model reading them beside a campfire soon.
They're all collectors editions! My books cost as much as my surfboards!
And for those who always ask, I shoot in RAW! Always! :)
Best on Black.
My intention was to capture the halo effect on the flower stems backlight by the evening sun. The hedge cast a moving shadow so I was preoccupied to get the shot quickly. Along came the bee ! I know he's not super sharp but he was moving fast without any consideration for my artistic intentions.
Seen alongside the stream that flows through Johnston Canyon in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada.

Lying silently on a shelf in my 'museum', a selection of the vintage street lighting time-switches that I have saved over the years. Most are electric, a few of them are clockwork, but nearly all of them still work, bearing testiment to the quality of their manufacture.
Hey everyone!
Long time no talk! Stupid WiFi at the motel I stayed at didn't work on my computer. Of course. So, I missed so many days and I'm honestly pretty pissed about that. But don't worry, I will be getting the rest up throughout the days.
They had a huge fireworks show a few nights into the vacation, and this was the only good photo I got. Oh well. I tried. xD
I'm trying to do all my contest photos but I did have to drop out of one. Sorry about that!
Omg, for some reason my question mark key isn't working so I have to copy and paste question marks. LOL. Fail.
I want to post photos of what I got, but I got a lot (no, I'm not spoiled. So don't start that shit.) I guess I can upload random photos throughout the days showing the stuff....I have no clue xD
Well, that's it for today! Sorry it's lame, I'm just still soo tired! Bye :)

A view from inside the planetarium at the ESO Supernova Planetarium & Visitor Centre, which opened its doors to the public on Saturday 28 April 2018. The building is open five days a week and features planetarium screenings, tours and a permanent exhibition in both German and English. The 25-degree tilted planetarium dome does not just give the audience the sensation of watching the Universe, but of being immersed in it. The stars turn into streaks of light as the audience is hurtled though space and time.
