yep. you read that right "Pork brains with milk gravy". It's, to my knowledge, the grossest of all canned meats.
The landscape in White Pocket NM is surreal. This area is part of the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument. I don't mean to over-use a cliche description, but it truly is like another planet. There are so many oddly shaped rock formations that it can be hard to choose what to shoot.
In this composition I elected to put a human into the frame to provide a sense of scale and drama. In my opinion this seems to portray a feeling of loneliness. Man vrs nature is one thing, but man vrs this odd environment makes it feel that much more alone.
Expect more images form this unique place for sure.
If only I had more brains! Many mounds of brain rock formations are found in the area of Edmaiers Secret near Buckskin Gulch.

The city of Cambridge is full of brains and bicycles. The brains mainly reside in the hallowed halls of the university. They ride the bicycles, as do lesser mortals.
These pinnacles of intellect often seem to engage in incomprehensible and seemingly arcane studies. I remember going to a lecture once where an animated young lady effused enthusiasm for her doctoral research on the meaning and metaphors to be found in the patterns of Polynesian mat-weaving in the age before civilisation arrived (in the form of a boat from Europe).
I found the talk strangely fascinating and interesting. It takes one to know one I guess.
The latest development by the city’ brains is driverless bicycles. This advanced technology has considerable benefits to society, and Cambridge is now the world leader in the field (or streets for that matter). Bikes can travel a lot closer together, significantly reducing the congestion in the bike lanes for this already climate-friendly mode of transport. You can clearly see this in my image, taken in Cambridge just this week and processed today.
But there’s been a problem. There have been a large number of fatalities resulting from collisions between the novel bikes and food delivery riders driving their electric scooters. No one is quite sure what is the cause...
Quite understandably there has been considerable consternation in the upper levels of the city authorities. They are concerned that if we run out of drivers (more likely now since the ignominy of Brexit) food will be unable to be delivered from the restaurants to people’s homes and the population will starve. Never a good thing for leaders of a democracy (or even a monarchy - remember the French Revolution, anyone?). :)
For the Smile on Saturday group today, and also continuing my 100x project on motion.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Smile on Saturday and 100x

On Bleecker Street in the East Village, Lower Manhattan. off the Bowery.
This is a tribute to the hardcore punk band Bad Brains. The artist is Shepard Fairey, in collaboration with the LISA Project NYC. The artwork is based on photographs taken by Glen E. Friedman at the music venue, CBGB, where the band used to perform. (CBGB was located across the street from the site of this mural.)
A zombie photographer's favorite foreground subject.

George the zombie had seen better centuries. Once a fearsome figure in the post-apocalyptic shuffle scene, he’d fallen on hard times - his last gig as a haunted house extra ended when he mistook the manager for a snack. So when he stumbled across a job listing taped to a rusty lamppost that read “Elevator Operator Wanted - No Brains Needed!”, George felt seen. Finally, a workplace that appreciated his unique qualifications: slow reflexes, vacant stare, and an uncanny ability to groan at just the right moment.
Now stationed in a dimly lit hallway, George takes pride in his work. He’s punctual (he never sleeps), courteous (his vocabulary is limited to “Uhhh”), and he never judges anyone’s floor choice. Sure, some passengers scream when the doors open to reveal his decomposing grin, but George chalks that up to enthusiasm. And while he occasionally forgets which button to press - his fingers tend to fall off - he’s found purpose again. After all, in a world that’s always rushing, George reminds us to slow down… preferably to a crawl.
We found numerous examples of brain rock formations near Buckskin Gulch in the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument.
The brain is a muscle,
and I am a kind of
body-builder.

I dare you to click on this. Here is the Bad Brains best song "Pay to Cum" Overlayed onto Leonard Nimoy's Video of his "hit" Bilbo Baggins. Now that's PUNK.
Mmmmmmmmm I thought this was gonna be crap but I have just done the proof and the brains look ACE (if I may say so...)
Now I need to choose the paper colour ...
This was not my car. It was a stolen car abandoned by joyriders in a field in the countryside. I just took a picture because I was drawn to how all the glass looked in the diffused light whilst thinking how much I hated the fact all of these tiny pieces of glass would now likely forever be left embedded in the ground at risk to wildlife and animals. And that the idiots that stole it probably got away with it. Leaving the farmer (other people) to pick up the pieces. grrr
