In Memoriam
LÉOPOLD SÉDAR SENGHOR
translated, from the French, by Zack Rogow
It’s Sunday.
I’m afraid of the crowd that looks like me with its stone faces.
From my glass tower crowded with migraines and impatient Ancestors
I muse over the rooftops and hills in the mist
In the calm—the chimneys are serious and naked.
At their feet my dead are sleeping; all my dreams deeds—dust
All my dreams, needless blood spilled down the streets, mixing with the blood of butcher shops.
And now, from this observation post, as if from the outskirts of the city
I muse over my dreams walking distractedly down the streets, sleeping at the foot of the hills,
Like the drovers of my race on the banks of the Gambia and the Saloum
And now the Seine, at the foot of the hills.
Let me think about my dead!
Yesterday was All Saints, the Sun’s solemn birthday
And all the cemeteries were empty of memories.
Oh my Dead, who always refused to die, who were able to keep Death at bay
Away from the Sine, away from the Seine, and in my fragile veins, my indomitable blood
Protect my dreams as you protected your migratory sons with their skinny legs.
Oh my dead! defend the Paris rooftops in the Sunday fog
The rooftops that protect my dead.
Let me leave my dangerously safe tower and walk down to the street
With my brothers who have blue eyes
And rough hands.

One more shot of my 72th floor shooting before I take a little flickr break. I am going for a short vacation, you'll will figure out the place when I post my next shot!
This my first Vertorama done with my Nikkor Fisheye. I created two tone-mapped HDRs of 7 exposures each (top/bottom).The stitching had to be done completely manually. Optical correction to remove the bending of the buildings.
I also took a close-up of the Burj Dubai (looks tiny in this shot) that I will post later.
The huge tower on the foreground is the Rose Rotana Hotel. It was actually totally obstructing the view on that side of the building in construction.
BN's Helena Local rounds a curve in Montana. Yes, I'm afraid what you think might of happened, happened. The little guy in front of the GP38-2 took one for the team. Oh, the carnage! I'll never forget that day. This was taken on BN's route between Great Falls, and Helena, which is now closed.
To see the hummer's reaction to having a Yellow Jacket crawl on her chest, see the next photo.
Having watched Yellow Jacket for a few days I have concluded:
1. Yellowjacket wants the hummer's food and will fight for it.
2. If the Yellowjacket is on the flower, He will launch an attack when hummers get within 2 feet.
3. If the hummingbird is feeding, the Yellowjacket will launch an attack from far away.
4. Yellow Jackets will sting for no reason at all
5. Yellow Jackets have no concept of personal space
6. Yellow Jackets are dicks
How do you feel?
What is there to feel?
So how do we now come to be
Afraid of sunlight?
Not much going on here but the broad leaf trees reaching across the divide, in the gloom, somehow struck a chord.
Rainy day in Herefordshire.

"The summer’s the same as the rain you know
Nah misery loves company as they say you know
Now babe one thing I ain’t got time for is all the games
Sick of playing and I’m ready to blaze out
And I’m ready to stay out
Hey you know I’m ready to go
There’s just one thing I gotta know
How it be all in your face, & you still scared of the light you chase
What’d you think you had a bad bitch on your side
But baby wasn’t down to ride Nah
You had a bad bitch on your side
But baby wasn’t down to ride
What would you do without a bad bitch on your side, now
Well baby wasn’t down to ride
You coulda had a bad bitch on your side
But baby was just scared of the flight
What you know about the kind that get up under your skin
Sick of waiting and I’m ready to win now
My soul is singing and I’m ready to let it out, of here
Oo what you gon’ do
What you gon’ do when I come for you
Oo how you gon’ move, how you gone move better run from it
Like you always do, damn. Like you always do." - QUIÑ ♫

Doing self portraits is a completely different experience and always a new adventure.
Why do you like doing self portraits?
If you're holding out for universal popularity, I'm afraid you will be in this cabin for a very long time.

Today
I don't have to fall apart
I don't have to be afraid
I don't have to let the damage consume me
I was so afraid, now you’re gone away
sent you packing, look who’s laughing now, I’m so happy that I feel this way, I’m so happy that I threw you away.

The last time we were at Page and visited horseshoe bend out in the middle of nowhere, the weather did not cooperate and we had a less than stellar sunset. This time though we had a beautiful sunset but a huge number of people. So getting a shot without people n the frame was nearly impossible. Here is a stitch pano shot made of about 7imagestaken in portrait mode and stitched together to give an ultra wide perspective. It was quite dark by the time I made this shot and hence I had to do a bit of over exposing to get everything in.
Hope you all like it thanks for visiting.
...of exploring.
Mini-me out in the woods.
I had to change into warmer clothing for the winter months!
Now that it is getting closer to 2025, I am thinking of doing a 365 project that will feature a Lego a day?
I've seen others that do it and I think it is a great photo project!
"Be not afraid of going slowly. Be afraid only of standing still." Asian Proverb.
After photographing the Tokyo skyline from the island of Odaiba, I had to return to the city using the automatic train of the Yurikamome line. I had seen photos similar to this one of this and other trains in cities like Singapore or Taipei, but never tried any. This time I did not want to pass up the opportunity to get a very different image to what I usually do.
I had to wait for a couple of trains filled with people before, and "third time lucky", I had the front of the train for me alone. There was no time to lose, as the best photos are achieved when the train is passing under the tunnels. After several failed attempts, I finally got the image you see and with which I was really satisfied. To do this, we have to open the diaphragm and use speeds around 1 second to get the best results, although it depends on many factors such as the speed of the train itself. Not having something like a lenskirt, I had to prop the lens hood against the glass and cover the sides where the light came in with my hands, thus avoiding the lights from inside the train that caused horrible reflections and ruined the shot. One of the things I love most about photography is that, little by little, new things are always being learned.

"No tengas miedo de ir despacio. Ten miedo solo de quedarte quieto." Proverbio Asiático.
Después de fotografiar el skyline de Tokyo desde la isla de Odaiba, tenía que volver a la ciudad usando el tren sin conductor de la línea Yurikamome. Había visto fotos parecidas a ésta de este y de otros trenes en ciudades como Singapur o Taipei, pero nunca había intentado ninguna. Esta vez no quería dejar pasar la oportunidad de conseguir una imagen muy diferente a lo que suelo hacer.
Tuve que esperar a que pasaran un par de trenes llenos de gente antes, y a la tercera fue la vencida, tenía la parte delantera del tren para mí solo. No había tiempo que perder, ya que las mejores fotos se consiguen cuando se está pasando bajo los túneles. Después de varios intentos fallidos, por fin conseguí la imagen que veis y con la que quedé realmente satisfecho. Para realizarla hay que abrir el diafragma y usar velocidades entorno a 1 segundo son las que dan para mí los mejores resultados, aunque depende de muchos factores como de la velocidad del propio tren. Al no tener algo como una "lenskirt", tuve que apoyar el parasol contra el cristal y cubrir los laterales por los que entraba la luz con las manos, consiguiendo así evitar las luces del interior del tren que provocaban reflejos horribles y arruinaban la toma. Una de las cosas que más amo de la fotografía es que aunque sea poco a poco, siempre se están aprendiendo cosas nuevas.
