Didn't really turn out the way I wanted it to, because the TMP bodies are really iffy to work with most of the time. But it'll do.

I've been feeling extremely uncreative lately.
I think a major reason why is because I'm no longer surrounded by creative people. When I was in school in Florida I was surrounded by creative people and I feel like my most creative work was during my time there.
I really need to get out of Tucson.
Arnold Henry Savage Landor (June 2, 1865 - December 26, 1924) - abandoned pavilion and soldier just outside Seoul (1891) - oil on wood - Exhibition "Painting Asia from life" - MAO, Museum of Oriental Art, Turin
Artista, antropologo, esploratore, avventuriero, scrittore, fotografo, giornalista e inventore: Arnold Henry Savage Landor (1865-1924) è una figura poliedrica estremamente interessante, che ha goduto di grande successo in vita e che, per motivi non del tutto chiari, è caduta totalmente nell’oblio dopo la sua morte. Savage Landor nacque a Firenze da padre inglese e madre italiana. Visse la sua adolescenza in un ambiente colto, in cui letteratura e arte erano passioni quotidiane. Tra i suoi maestri vi fu Stefano Ussi (1822-1901), che intuì le capacità del giovane e suggerì alla famiglia di lasciare che si dedicasse alla pittura. Partito presto alla scoperta del mondo, il giovane Henry visitò prima alcuni paesi dell’Africa settentrionale e dell’America, per muoversi poi alla volta dell’Asia: Giappone, Corea, Cina, dove dipinse centinaia di opere dal vero in uno stile 'impressionistico-macchiaiolo' di rapida esecuzione.
L'unicità documentaria delle sue creazioni appare evidente: in un periodo in cui ci si affidava già all'immediatezza della fotografia, Savage Landor ha persistito a lungo nel dipingere en-plein-air, prendendo però nettamente le distanze dalle visioni fantasiose e dallo stile minuziosamente classico della pittura di genere Orientalista per immergersi invece nel mondo asiatico reale, restituendone i vari aspetti con i tratti espressivi della modernità. Lo stile dell’artista anglo-fiorentino, rapido e conciso, si rivela infatti estremamente efficace nel 'fotografare' con immediatezza luoghi e persone che di lì a qualche decennio sarebbero completamente cambiati per conseguenza dell'incipiente globalizzazione.
Explorer, adventurer, writer, photographer, journalist and inventor: Arnold Henry Savage Landor (1865-1924) is an extremely interesting figure, who had great success in life and, for still unclear reasons, fell into oblivion after his death.
Savage Landor was born in Florence to an English father and an Italian mother. He spent his childhood and adolescence in very lively intellectual circles, where literature and art were daily passions. Among his teachers was Stefano Ussi (1822-1901), who sensed the young man's skills and suggested his family to let him devote to painting. Leaving home to discover the world, young Henry first visited some countries in North Africa and America, then moved to Asia: Japan, Korea, China, where he made hundreds of paintings in real life.
The documentary uniqueness of his creations is evident: at a time when the immediacy of photography was already being exploited, he long insisted on painting en plein air.
Although he was well aware of Orientalist painting, he stayed strictly away from its edulcorated, fantastical visions and from its meticulously classic style, preferring to plunge into the real world of Asia and portray it in a modern artistic manner.
The style of the Anglo-Florentine artist, quick and concise, proves to be extremely effective in "photographing" places and people who would have completely changed after a few decades as a result of the incipient globalization.
The pattern was empty, but the tower was in the wrong place.....

In 1930's this classicism building on Catherine's Canal belonged to writers cooperative. They added two upper floors but due to the lack of technic their height is equal to one floor of the original 19 century building. Many famous writers lived here including Zoshchenko.

About 50% of India's women are illiterate. What that means is that for everyday tasks like filling forms, operating bank accounts, and even communicating with loved ones through letters they need to take help from someone. The traditional letter-writer hence continues to be a fixture on the Indian landscape. Almost all letter-writers are men, and they generally sit with their type-writers and letter pads in front of post-offices and type forms or write the personal correspondence for people who are illiterate. Here a woman is explaining what she wants written in her letter which the letter-writer writes out by hand.

The 38-foot dome in Preston Bradley Hall is thought to be the world's largest Tiffany dome, valued at an estimated $35 million. The many patterns in the ornately decorated room are influenced by nature. Among the organic shapes and textures are the scales of fish, which may be found in the dome and hanging Tiffany lamps. At the top of the dome are symbols of the Zodiac. The supporting arches are adorned with mosaic scrolls and rosettes bearing the symbols of 16th century master printers. The hall's east and west wings are accessible through large, graceful arches which bear the names of great writers of the western world. Inscriptions in ten languages extol the wisdom found in books.

沒有刻上文字 天天不會忘懷
自我深愛著你 遲早也會活埋
像這風眼移近 捲走一對愛的人
沒有比這樣更對 還給你今天的身份
沒法讀 的眼神 當中千古奧秘不可解
但再讀 一顆心 就看見一個我 亦看見一個你
