Dagshai is a small hill town in Himachal, India. It's history goes back to 1847 when the East India Company created a small cantonment out of five villages. The British also built the Dagshai Central jail which is now a heritage museum. Dagshai also has a well known army school and an old graveyard from the British times.

The Cellular Jail, also known as Kālā Pānī (Black Water), was a colonial prison in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, India. The prison was used by the British especially to exile political prisoners to the remote archipelago. Many notable dissidents such as Batukeshwar Dutt and Veer Savarkar, among others, were imprisoned here during the struggle for India's independence. Today, the complex serves as a national memorial monument.

I have been working - a lot - no time to shoot much. Except occasionally, one of my favorite subjects. She still comes to visit me evry morning. The reason I am so sure it is my Curlytoes is the oddly cropped tail - unique among the many geckoes that frequent our lanai. She is is still the most curious and the most endearing of our little tribe.....
Human cells. The 3 billion base pairs of DNA packaged in the nuclei are in blue and red is a secret protein I am currently working on.
Wow, my first comment before I've written the description.
Today's made-for-Flickr composition was repurposed from my 2004 digital print, Fractal State IV. It corresponds to about a one foot-by-one foot section of the original 2x3 foot print. This image also originated from a scan of a copper plate (etched and then corroded with household reagents, then scanned in a color-enriching, many times enlarging, fashion).

Pair of bald eagles have been on this tower every night this week when I arrived home. Finally had the opportunity to run back out there with my X-T3 • XF 100-400
On April 19, 2005, Oregon prosecutors filed aggravated vehicular homicide against Angelique Dipman, 27, a day after the death of 5-year-old Dameatrius McCreary.
The crash happened on a Thursday afternoon around 3:30pm on Starr Avenue in Oregon, USA. Police say a school bus stopped, with warning lights on and stop sign out, to let McCreary off the bus. Ohio laws require drivers to stop, but police say 27-year-old Dipman drove past the bus, and hit McCreary, throwing him several feet into the air. McCreary was taken by helicopter to The Toledo Hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.
"My prayers go out to the family," said Dipman as she was led into police headquarters by her attorney. When asked what happened, she reiterated, "I have no other comment other than my prayers go out to the family."
Police believe Dipman was on her cell phone at the time of the accident which may have distracted her. "You just don't drive by a stopped school bus with the lights flashing unless there is some distraction in some shape or form," said Oregon Police Chief Tom Gulch. The mother of Dameatrius, Sandra TenEyck, agreed by saying "This woman was on a cell phone. She didn't stop for a bus that had its stop sign out. I mean you have to see that. There's no way."
Local News Channel 11 checked Dipman's driving record and found her license has been suspended twice, she has been cited for speeding 4 times, and also received a child restraint citation in the past.
Dipman appeared for an arraignment in Oregon Municipal Court, pleading not guilty to the charge of aggravated vehicular homicide. She will be back in court on June 27th.
"I think you and I sitting here or anybody else is guilty of using a cell phone as we're driving," said Mayor Marge Brown of Oregon. That's why Brown thinks the city should consider enacting a law banning the use of cell phones while driving. "How many others are distracted by cell phones and usage? How many others are paying attention, either eating, doing make-up, radio blasting or on the cell phone? How many accidents have been caused because of that?" Brown asks.
In 2003, 33 states introduced bills that would ban the use of hand-held cell phones while driving. To date New York is the only state with such a ban. It went into effect in December 2001.
