He's not sure why he's in the sink. It's to give the impression of him getting a bath. He's actually too small for the sink. I brought him to my local pet store where they have a dog wash. My sister videotaped him getting his bath.

Maurizio Cattelan
Not Afraid of Love
Avec ”All” au Guggenheim en 2011, on pensait que « tout » avait été dit. Comme souvent avec Maurizio Cattelan, nous étions sur une fausse piste…
Ce qui devait être le salut final d’une carrière éblouissante, faite d’œuvres qui ont marqué l’époque, de scandales, de profondeur, de fracas et d’humour, n’était qu’une (ir)révérence de plus.
Cinq ans plus tard, Cattelan revient au travail. Il a choisi la Monnaie de Paris pour son exposition la plus importante en Europe, et la plus importante depuis sa rétrospective New-Yorkaise. Cette exposition à la Monnaie de Paris, sous le commissariat de Chiara Parisi, est une exposition qui sera profondément « habitée » par Cattelan. Un choix d’œuvres, dont l'image reste pour toujours accrochée à la rétine, seront exposées dans les salons XVIIIème siècle de la Monnaie de Paris.
Irrévérencieux, génial, facétieux, drôle, grave, provocateur, cynique, potache, Maurizio Cattelan n’est jamais là où on l’attend. Les visages de Cattelan sont autant d’uppercuts qui nous laissent KO.
Et c’est là son paradoxe ultime, sa capacité géniale à transformer une fuite en pirouette sublime : Cattelan n’aura jamais été aussi présent dans une exposition, et pourtant chacune de ses œuvres hurle son absence.
L’effigie de Cattelan, l’art de la mise en scène, sera le cœur battant de l’exposition à la Monnaie de Paris.
Un début de réponse à son interrogation aussi pince-sans-rire que métaphysique « y-a-t-il une vie avant la mort ? ».
A small tip for this weekend :
Don't be afraid to go all out during a photoshoot, always think about movies, when do we "believe" the movie?
When everything is right, the makeup, the acting, the clothing, the lighting etc.
In fact model photography is just like acting, only our models do it on 1/1000's of a second instead of 24fps.
So when I want to shoot something I'll try to push the model for the right expression, get the clothing right, take care of the lighting and the location. When this all comes together.... you have a story telling shot.
So the next time you watch a movie from (for example) the Asylum you will see that the acting is bad, the decors are bad, the SFX is bad etc. etc. so you don't get pulled in to the movie. Now when you watch a well produced movie where everything is fitting to the story this is where you get pulled in.
So when you want to shoot something with A LOT of expression/madness don't hold back on expression, but also make sure the clothing is 100% perfect, in this case we used a great stylist and as you can see he did not only used a straight jacket but he actually also made it dirty, damaged etc, it all adds that little bit of extra. Combined with a model that REALLY went for it, and there you go, in opinion a cool shot.
So for your next shoot, make the clothes a bit dirty, push your model for expression or in other words.... think movie :D

The Easter Parade terminated outside my apartment block but as my windows face away from Bolton Street I was afraid that I might not be able to get any usable photographs of the parade but things did work out too bad even though members of the public did frequently block my view of the event.
Since Ireland joined the United Nations in 1955, the Army has been deployed on many peacekeeping missions. The first of these took place in 1958, when a small number of observers were sent to Lebanon. A total of 86 Irish soldiers have died in the service of the United Nations since 1960
As of 1 December 2015, 493 Defence Force personnel are serving in 12 different missions throughout the world including Lebanon (UNIFIL), Syria (UNDOF), Middle East (UNTSO), Kosovo (KFOR), German-led Battle Group 2016 and other observer and staff appointments to UN, EU, OSCE and PfP posts. The largest deployments include:
Lebanon (UNIFIL) 51 Infantry Group, Syria (UNDOF) 50 Infantry Group.
The Army has historically purchased and used weapons and equipment from other western countries, mainly from European nations. Ireland has a very limited arms industry and rarely produces its own armaments.
From its establishment the Army used the British-made Lee–Enfield .303 rifle, which would be the mainstay for many decades. In the 1960s some modernisation came with the introduction of the Belgian-made FN FAL 7.62 mm assault rifle. Since 1989 the service rifle for the Army is the Austrian-made Steyr AUG 5.56 mm assault rifle (used by all branches of the Defence Forces).
Other weapons in use by the Army include the USP 9mm pistol, FN MAG machine gun, M2 Browning machine gun, Accuracy International Arctic Warfare sniper rifles, AT4 SRAAW, FGM-148 Javelin Anti-tank guided missile, L118 105mm Howitzer, RBS 70 Surface to Air Missile system.
The Army has purchased 80 Swiss made Mowag Piranha Armoured personnel carriers which have become the Army's primary vehicle in the Mechanised infantry role. These are equipped with 12.7 mm HMGs, or the Oto Melara 30 mm Autocannon. The army also has 27 RG Outrider light tactical armoured vehicles. The Army has no tanks, but does have a variant of the FV101 Scorpion light armoured reconnaissance vehicle, with a 76.2 mm main gun.

Will you ride after reading this? Was only able to read this after :P But i will surely ride again. :)
Why am I so afraid to crash down and lose my heart again? I don't know, I can't see, what's come over me

Are you afraid of heights ? Mt. Whistler Blackomb's peak to peak gondola, Vancouver, Canada
Press "L" or click on the image to view large
Taken during my recent trip to beautiful Vancouver. On left the BC place stadium.
This was one of daring journies, I must say , riding over the worlds highest gondola.
About Mt. Whistler’s gondola :
If you're afraid of heights, forget about riding the new Peak to Peak Gondola at British Columbia's Whistler Blackcomb ski resort. Passenger cabins hang as high as 1427 ft. (higher than four-and-a-half Statues of Liberty) and travel nearly 2 miles without passing a single support tower. It's the longest unsupported span of any lift of its type. Construction of the $52 million gondola began in 2007 with its steel towers. This year, five monstrous spools of cable were shipped from a Swiss factory, through the Panama Canal, and up to Washington state. A train then took them to Whistler, where they were loaded onto a 48-wheel trailer that was pushed and pulled by haul trucks up a winding gravel road at an average speed of 1 mph. It took three months, and the help of helicopters, to string the cables across the valley. The gondola, which opens in December, will allow visitors to the largest ski resort in North America to move quickly between Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, and ski both, without having to descend to the base area. The Peak to Peak should get plenty of use: The resort will host the alpine skiing events at the 2010 Winter Olympics, which will be based in nearby Vancouver.
1. Drive System
A 2400-hp drive terminal on Whistler Mountain powers the gondola. Under normal operations, it runs at about 900 hp--the extra capacity is required for startup. The drive's two AC motors spin a 15-ft. bull wheel, which serves to move the haul rope--the cable that pulls the passenger cabins along stationary track ropes. A hydraulic-mounted bull wheel at the return station on Blackcomb keeps proper tension on the haul rope.
2. Towers
The cables are sup-ported by four galvanized steel towers (two on each mountain) that were raised in sections by a boom crane and bolted together by a team of Swiss climbers. The highest tower tops out at 213 ft. Combined, they weigh 441 tons and sit atop 141,000 cu. ft. of concrete poured into foundations.
3. Sky Cabins
The gondola's 28 sky cabins travel at 17 mph, clearing the 2.7-mile gap in 11 minutes. Each holds 28 passengers, allowing the system to carry 4100 people per hour. Two cabins have glass floors, giving thrill seekers a view of the valley below. When a cabin reaches a station, it detaches from the haul rope and slows as spinning pneumatic tires carry it through the terminal on a guide rail, allowing passengers to exit and board. It then accelerates to the speed of the haul rope, at which point it reconnects and whisks off over the void.
4. Rescue Vehicles
In the event of a power failure, a 270-hp diesel-powered backup drive can send four rescue vehicles out on the track ropes to retrieve stranded cabins. "If all else fails, we can get people out of that big span," says Warren Sparks, the general manager of Doppelmayr CTEC Ltd., the lift's manufacturer. Each rescue vehicle has an arm that can latch onto a cabin and pull it back to a tower, where passengers are lowered by rope and harness from heights that can surpass 200 ft.
5. Early-Warning System
To avoid catastrophes (such as when a jet severed a gondola cable in Italy in 1998), the Peak to Peak has an early-warning system known as OCAS, or Obstacle Collision Avoidance System. OCAS uses radar to track nearby aircraft. If it detects a threat, flashing lights are activated on the towers and an audible warning is broadcast on all aircraft radio frequencies. "The typical red balls you see on electrical wires are less effective for high-speed airplanes," Sparks says.
Enjoy the moment !!!!
