So little time,
Try to understand that I'm,
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game,
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing,
And I don't feel the same..
You're gone from here
Soon you will disappear
Fading into beautiful light
'Cause everybody's changing
And I don't feel right ....
This sign amused me, since we were on our honeymoon - a time in life when there are truly changed priorities ahead.
Mike explained to me that the sign actually meant that one street was the "primary" street, but at the next intersection it would become secondary to the larger street.
I like my version better.

All change is a miracle to contemplate, but it is a miracle that is taking place every instant.
-- Henry David Thoreau
Amazing how quickly the vista changes over the course of only a few minutes as the sun approaches and then crests the horizon.
Do you believe that there's someone up above?
And does he have a timetable directing acts of love?
Why did I write this song on that one day?
Why did you touch my hand and softly say
"Stop asking questions that don't matter anyway
Just give us a kiss to celebrate here today"
Something changed
When we woke up that morning we had no way of knowing
That in a matter of hours we'd change the way we were going
Where would I be now, where would I be now if we'd never met?
Would I be singing this song to someone else instead?
I don't know but like you just said
Something changed
Jarvis Cocker explained the meaning behind the song in an interview with Dave Simpson for Melody Maker magazine around the time of the single's release: "It was originally written about 12 years ago. My sister sang an early version, but it had different words. It never got used, and then I just remembered it. Because it had been written such a long time ago it made me wonder what I was doing then. And I worked out that it must have been written quite near to me meeting this girl. It's just wondering, really. If I hadn't gone out and met this particular person in this particular nightclub, and formed a relationship with her, how different would my life have been? So it's not really about fate, it's more about the randomness of things. Which I like. As I've said before, that's the main thing I feel is missing from my life. The worst thing about having a schedule and a timetable is that there's less chance for unexpected things to happen."
I don't strongly believe in fate, but life sometimes unfolds in such strange and unexpected ways that it makes one wonder. Or perhaps it is completely random; we are just here and not there. For better or worse.

Steppin Out....
Looking for a change of pace from shooting the same sites over and over so I decided to visit Pinecrest Gardens today as I haven't been there a a few years. Why, oh why, have I stayed away so long. I had a great day....shady, no crowds, and so much to shoot.
[Event] Garden Rhapsody - At the SuperTree Grove
[Details] - Be entertained by familiar Christmas tunes as the towering vertical gardens come to life every evening in a specially choreographed 12-minute music and light show.
Thanks to turning back the clocks one hour, I get to see the sunrise again on my way to work. It's a nice change of pace but it gets dark earlier in the evening.
This world is changing around us. There are small islands of solid ground in this mire, and great tentacled growths reaching for the sky. What was once a fathomless liquid wasteland seems now even more alien to me than before. But perhaps now we have more chances for survival, no longer limited to this mysterious path. The worms have been growing larger, feasting on the tentacles, which on close inspection appear to be made of some sort of spongy fungi. Many of the worms are twice as big as they used to be. We only had to kill one tonight to feed the two of us.
Quane thought she saw something on a passing island, so we decided to sleep on the path again tonight.
It was really uncomfortable.
Yes...the Journey is back. :)
It's mostly been so gradual you don't notice, but Second Life looks really really different than it did ten years ago. Becky (or some version of the idea that is Becky), then and now.
I like experimenting with AI to transform vintage advertising graphics in various ways.
AI does not always follow instructions, which can produce surprising results. That is what happened here. I asked it to turn the illustrations of people in a 1966 men's clothing ad into photographs of real people.
It obliged, only with twist that brought Fathers' Day up to date. As part of a two-dad family, I was tickled by the mistake.
See whether you can spot the difference. Well, it got the big polka dots right.
Here is Arriva Buses Wales Wrightbus VDL AB200 Pulsar CX07 CUU 2657 is seen at Bangor bus station on bus stop C as this is loading the passangers as its working on the route X4 to Caergybi / Holyhead.

The few remaining ice chunks out in Lake Michigan just off of the shore. So nice to see the waves crashing onto the beach again.

I certainly have a fondness for these old dead tree's, not only does it provide a wonderful subject but i find a deeper meaning to its demise...

World leaders will soon gather in Copenhagen in the hopes of coming up with a binding agreement aimed at limiting global warming to 2 degrees Celsius. But what if we're not successful?
Kirsty Lewis of the Met Office Hadley Centre, a leading climate research group, introduces a new Flash map which shows what might happen should temperatures rise by 4 degrees Celsius.
The impacts of climate change will be widespread across the globe. Emissions of greenhouse gases have already altered the earth's atmosphere and the climate is already changing. We will live with the consequences of these changes for the next few decades, regardless of the actions we take now to reduce our emissions. However, beyond that time, future climate change depends on whether we continue to emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere at the rate we currently do, or whether we take effective steps to dramatically reduce our emissions.
The difference between these two courses of action is the difference between some inevitable climate change, and more severe, "high-end" climate change in the longer term. This is a decision that faces politicians at the global climate change negotiations at Copenhagen in December.
In order to understand more about what the human impact of high-end climate change might be, and therefore what would happen if a successful agreement can not be reached at Copenhagen, the United Kingdom's Met Office Hadley Centre has produced a map outlining some of the impacts that may occur if the global average temperature rises by 4 degrees Celsius (7 degrees Fahrenheit) above the pre-industrial climate average.
The Latest Research
The map was produced by the Met Office Hadley Centre, but contains contributions from climate scientists from other institutions conducting the latest research on climate impacts.
Although the average temperature rise over the globe is 4 degrees Celsius (7 degrees Fahrenheit) the projection on the map shows that this average rise will not be spread uniformly across the globe. The land will heat up more quickly than the sea, and high latitudes, particularly the Arctic, will have larger temperature increases. The average land temperature will be 5.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
The impacts on human activity shown on the map are only a selection of those that may occur, and highlight the severe effects on water availability, agricultural productivity, extreme temperatures and drought, the risk of forest fire and sea level rise.
Frightening Impacts
Agricultural yields are expected to decrease for all major cereal crops in all major regions of production. The availability of water will be affected by melting of glaciers, particularly in areas such as the Indus basin and western China, where much of the river flow comes from melt water. Population increases, combined with changes in river run off as a result of changes in rainfall patterns and increased temperatures, could mean that by 2080 significantly less water is available to approximately 1 billion people already living under water stress. For many areas of the world sea level rise, combined with the effect of storms, will threaten low lying coastal communities. There are often very dense populations living along coasts, as well as important infrastructure and high value agricultural land, which makes the impact of coastal flooding particularly severe. The intrusion of salt water on farming land, and the risk to lives of flooding events could affect millions of people worldwide every year.
The impacts are frightening, and the list is not exhaustive. However, the map represents a world where climate change has gone unmitigated, where we have continued to emit greenhouse gases at the rates we are today. If we continue to do this, then the likelihood of the planet warming by 4 degrees Celsius (7 degrees Fahrenheit) increases, and as it does so the risk of these impacts being realised also increases. By taking strong and effective action to curb greenhouse gases emissions, it may be possible to limit this temperature rise to 2 debrees Celsius (4 degrees Fahrenheit). Although this would still bring some adverse impacts, the risk of the very severest impacts, as shown in the Met Office Hadley Centre map, is significantly reduced.

This image is a second image which was captured earlier this week in Wiltshire whilst taking the opportunity to photograph the Milky Way. I think it's fair to say I got a little distracted.
The last time that I was fortunate to photograph the Northern Lights, was back in Iceland in March/April 2016, so only taken eight years. Hopefully some more opportunities in the near future.
