Another reupload, RJ-2 paces along Thoman Road headed for Smiths with the last active CF7 at the time. 1500 was pulled from service shortly after this was taken, and now remains the final unit on property to wear the former Emons paint. I am honestly surprised it hasn't been cut up yet, like the rest of the CF7s and GP16s. GP15s now rule York Rail. 5/3/21
La verdad es que he tomado cientos de fotos de calles con su punto de fuga y todo eso...
Esta es la que mas me gusta, la luz , el hombre que cruza y Times Square al fondo le dan un toque que me mola.
Tengo una amiga que esta empezando con las fotos y hay que animarla. Agregarla porque seguro que va a avanzar rapidito rapidito.

Esta foto hay que verla aquí:
I took this photo on Karl Johan street in Oslo last summer. I saw all this people walking up and down the street and they were beautifully highlighted by the sun. I was thinking how to do something out of the ordinary of the scene so I took some photos with low shutter speed and at the same time I moved the camera up and down. I don't know why but this picture makes me think of the confusion and fear people have about corona these days.
lo he pintado de una foto que vi ,no me ha quedado como yo queria pero .....oleo sobre lienzo 50x38.
Así funciona el ladrillazo:
El alcalde de Miami pide cotizaciones para pintar la fachada del
Ayuntamiento, y le entregan 3 ofertas (de un inglés, un alemán
Y un español).
La del inglés asciende a 3 millones de dólares,
la del alemán a 6 millones, y
la del español a 9 millones.
Ante tales diferencias se entrevista con los
ofertantes por separado, para que
justifiquen su estimado de costo.
El inglés dice que él usa pintura acrílica para exteriores en dos capas, y que cuesta 1 millón; en andamios, brochas, equipos y seguros se va otro millón, y el otro millón restante es la mano de obra.
El alemán justifica su estimado diciendo
que él es mejor pintor, que usa pintura
de poliuretano con tres capas, cuyo
costo asciende a 3 millones. En
andamios, otros materiales, equipos y
seguros se gastan otros 2 millones, y el
millón restante es la mano de obra.
El último, que es el que finalmente gana la
licitación ya que el alcalde asegura que es el
presupuesto mejor justificado, resulta ser la del
español que le dijo:
Mire Alcalde, 3 Millones son para usted,
otros 3 para mí,
y los 3 restantes se los damos al inglés para que
nos pinte la fachada'.
P.D.
¡¡¡CUALQUIER PARECIDO CON LA VIDA
POLÍTICA DE TU MUNICIPIO ES PURA
COINCIDENCIA.jeje.!!!!

This is the remnants of an old pier that was used for access to the long gone John King boatyard in Emsworth Harbour. It is in a conservation area overlooking the now defunct oyster beds that Emsworth was once famous for.
In 1239 Henry III granted a charter for a weekly market and an annual fair in Emsworth. By 1341 the town was sufficiently established as a trading and fishing port, to be one of the five ports in Hampshire ordered to provide a ship for the fleet sent to protect the Channel Islands from French attack. Interesting historical background to the area.
What you don't see is the myriad of ducks and coots at my feet which were being fed by a kindly local resident, hence the LE!
I am immensely 😇 honored to share that one of my 📷 photographs have been published in 📰 The Times UK. It is beyond words to express what an incredible accolade it is to be recognized by this 237 year old prestigious news outlet, and have the opportunity to reach out to their almost 450,000 readership audience. 😊
The Times UK is often considered the “Newspaper of Record”, and being acknowledged by this well-respected platform certainly provides a new height of credibility to my work…
Overjoyed with this new milestone, I am even more thrilled to keep working hard and see what the future unfolds for me… I hope you stay with me on the ride… 🙏 🙏 🙏
The final remnant of the Russell Court Hotel in Belfast. It opened in 1972 at the height of The Troubles - and was bombed out a month later. It reopened, but was bombed yet again in 1976, and never reopened as a hotel after that. Subsequently it had various uses, including a pub (I was there a few times as a student) and sheltered housing. But now it’s being completely demolished to make way for a new building.
For more black and white photography from the streets of Belfast:
Taken with my other Russian Monocle/Monolens (26mm), which is very different from the 50mm.
Love how it rendered this scene, but I only had a few seconds before people walked in and ruined it, so I didn't have time to get the exposure right and burnt out the light from the window.
Best to try and embrace the imperfections. :-)
Trondheim, Norway.
Abstract reflections and an electronic billboard outside the MMS store. I had to study and then wait for this red eye to cycle through all the adds to get it just right.
An old saying....Dope will get you through times of no money, better than money will get you through times of no dope. Judging by the empty bucket. I'd say this guy's got neither.
Photography was a corner stone of my daily life, and now with a number of life changes, it's only now an occasional activity.
Most fleeting images get taken on my phone and my camera gathers dust on the shelf!
Times change - and I do miss the walks, the editing and the sharing and interactions too.
Daisies remain a constant for me and are always a delight to behold.
