Do you know what hope is? It's that weird little superpower that keeps you from giving up. You have that.
"Try Again Tomorrow"
(feat. Darling West)
If all you did today was, open your eyes
If all you did today was, turn off your phone
If all you had the energy to do today was, cry
Then you should know, that you're not alone
And it's okay to hide
If all you said today was, leave me alone
Push your friends away, and say 'go mind your own'
If all you did today was try to not feel anything, for anyone
Then you should know, you're not alone
'Cause it's okay, it's okay to feel lost, and feel tired
It's alright, you can turn off the light uninspired
And try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow
Alright
Just try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow
Alright
If all you did today was, try to survive
Force a smile and say that, everything's fine
If all you did was try to keep up appearances, a front for everyone
Then you should know, that you're not alone
Then it's okay, it's okay to feel lost, and feel tired
It's alright, you can turn off the light uninspired
And try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow
Alright
Just try again tomorrow, try again tomorrow
Alright
All I did today was, go back to bed
Pray for better days as I, laid down my head

Sometimes I wake up in the morning
To red, blue, and yellow skies
It's so crazy I could drink it like tequila sunrise
Put on that Hotel California
Dance around like I'm insane
I feel free when I see no one
And nobody knows my name
God knows I live
God knows I died
God knows I begged
Begged, borrowed and cried
God knows I loved
God know I lied
God knows I lost
God gave me life
And God knows I tried...
from lyrics of "God Knows I Tried" by Lana Del Rey
collaboration work with talented William Weaver
look at his gorgeous version here
Where there is desire, there is gonna be a flame
Where there is a flame, someone's bound to get burned
But just because it burns, doesn't mean you're gonna die
You gotta get up and try, and try, and try
Gotta get up and try, and try, and try
You gotta get up and try, and try, and try

I have not great skills in Photoshop, but just for fun I tried to make a card for Halloween.
I hope you have a great time on this eccentric day. Unfortunately Halloween is not part of our culture, but I admit that in recent years Brazilians are trying to introduce, unofficially, this celebration in our calendar :)
Trying to do it in the same camera, a challenge that we think and doing all kinds of tests until it goes more or less like that, with more than 5 shots the color is distorted a lot and the profiling is not good anymore, but I think the challenge we have managed ..
Probando hacerlo en la misma camara, un reto que nos pensamos y haciendo todo tipo pruebas hasta que sale mas o menos asi, ya con mas de 5 tomas se falsea mucho el color y la perfilacion ya no es buena, pero creo que el reto lo hemos conseguido..
I tried for this shot last weekend but an eastbound never came through. I waited patiently for 90 minutes but eventually it got too dark. So, I went back today and got lucky. I was hoping for an eastbound train while there was enough light in the sky to use the colorful clouds for a backdrop. I hoped. I got :-)
Have a great weekend everyone :-)

....to get the shots like this with a darkish backdrop and the sun just right (to me)
Always hand held and straight from camera.
Trying out a new toy in my Gobe 10 stop variable ND filter. Allows for those sweet 30 second exposures before the sun completely goes down!

Maybe he has a better service provider than I have, but I don't think there is cell service down in the gorge. I used my phone too...as a camera hahaha.

A glimpse, a longing, and a
bewildering ecstasy.”

The year I turned 40, I flew to Costa Rica to try something that was on my bucket list: surfing. I took the Sunwing “champagne” flight, and stayed with family in a villa just steps from the ocean. It was a dream come true. This photo was taken one evening with my old Canon camera as I walked the beach alone. The sunset was spectacular—just the remedy at the time for my restless heart. It felt like a gift. It took my breath away.
I was raised by the water, but I haven’t always lived by lakes (and later the ocean) that I grew up around. I thought that I would return to the coast permanently at some point, but that hasn’t been in the cards for me. Only people who truly love the water know what it’s like to be separated from it. It is an ache that never leaves you. Although, if I were to leave here, inevitably there would be things to miss (like brilliant autumn leaves, my proximity to Toronto, etc.). You can never have it all, it seems, which is why we must be grateful for what we have. And I am grateful, for opportunities, memories and photos that can take me back—even if only briefly in my mind.

I would tell you about the things
They put me through
The pain I've been subjected to
But the lord himself would blush
The countless feasts laid at my feet
Forbidden fruits for me to eat
But i think your pulse would start to rush
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things i do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments i kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But i promise now, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of any repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments i kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things i do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments i kept
If you try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments i kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

I tried quiet a few different subjects but eventually came back to my tried and tested watch parts. I was lucky how this set froze, quiet randomly the second hand lined up with the watch face, and the cogs were close to the surface of the ice. Originally I’d used ice cube trays to freeze objects but I ended up freezing them in a jar then cracking the ice into chunks with a knife.
To take the shot I placed the ice onto a stacked shot glass on top of a Pyrex lid on top of an LED light (with various other lights to pick out the detail).
Loving the variety in the group pool so far, makes me smile to think what’s been on ice in peoples freezers worldwide this week!
