Something tells me it was a quiet day for the Border Patrol at the Coast Guard station in Grand Marais. Actually, I'm willing to bet that everyday is a quiet day for both the Border Patrol and Coast Guard in Grand Marais.
Traveling north on US 191, everyone is questioned by the Border Patrol. I liked the effect of the shakey telephoto shot over the hot hood of the truck. We passed without incident.
Elk didn't want to sit and do the mermaid impression - can't say I blamed her as there were plenty of barnacles! Mist just didn't understand what it was all about (bless her!)
Ventimiglia, border between Italy and France...
06 Dicembre 2000
one day and one night of riot...
border closed!
destination: NICE, against power.
Ventimiglia....primi scontri di una lunga serie...
qualcuno è riuscito a superare i confini con un po di furbo autostop, mimetizzandosi con gli altri...
la gran parte ha occupato l'autostrada per metà nottata, dopo una mattinata di scontri e freddo...
prima di un'altra.
.lì ti ho conosciuto.....mannaggia a me!
Whoops, another late entry... and not what I was aiming for either!
For Bokeh Thursday;
lots more borders here than you may at first think! I half filled the shot glass with water dyed blue and stuck it in the freezer! Put red dye in some warm water ready to pour on top of the frozen shot glass. with the prep done the glass was lit from underneath and from one side in front of a star curtain. the obvious borders and boundaries are;
Light-Dark, Red-Blue, glass-water, water-Air, cold-warm. the not-so-obvious is the one the wife came up with... bordering insanity!!!
Strobise: Lit from behind, dark field style with SB700 and YN560 snooted and pointing at subject

This land where i now stand
Its the same air that gently caresses my weary soul
This land where i now breathe
It is the same dust that fills my lungs
This land where i now belong
It feels the same but somehow wrong
Invisible lines on a map turns people blind and fake
Silently it breaks us all until there is none to take
All alone in this crowd
A needle pierced through my heart
When all hope is lost and fear engulfs
I know i will do my part
A foreign land they say today
But somehow it feels like mine
A foreign land it is today...
Tomorrow... I know i will make it mine
After the attack on the Government building, the killed embedded agent was found to be a member of a neighboring country’s special intelligence division, and although these two nations used share a strong alliance, they were now at odds, as the neighboring country was proven to be supporting the current uprising within the nation, presumably to help facilitate a puppet government to take power in order to strengthen their grip on the east. Because of this political tension, the two nations were preparing for war. shutting their borders and mobilizing artillery units- whose sights were aimed at the one country that they considered an ally. Things were different now, and getting worse.

Op vrijdag 16 november vond de beta-editie van Border Sessions plaats. Crossing Border is een nieuw festival, verbonden aan Crossing Border, waarin sprekers, auteurs, filosofen en denkers de invloed van nieuwe technologieën op de maatschappij en vice versa onderzoeken. Het doel van het festival is dat bezoekers geïnspireerd raken, ideeën opdoen, nieuwe interessante contacten leggen en net zo belangrijk: gewoon een heel leuke dag hebben. Het festival is met name gericht op professionals uit het bedrijfsleven, overheid, NGO’s, internationale sector en de creatieve sector. Plan is om dit festival elk jaar te laten plaatsvinden in Den Haag.
Even if it opened after I moved away, seeing my hometown Borders close is really sad. Ames only has ISU bookstores now
Ontario-Manitoba border, looking from Ontario. (But where is the actual line? The road is obviously paved differently up to a point just behind our car and the small fence and white-over-green diamond marker to mark end of fence is a very Ontario thing (never saw it in Manitoba). The "100" speed limit sign, though is in the style one would see in Manitoba (plus, the speed is 100 in Manitoba as opposed to 90 in Ontario)
