First self-portrait in such a long time. I was long overdue for a change, so I cut off my hair. Personally, it was more than just a haircut. Insecurities used to eat me alive, so I would hide behind my hair. Honestly, It took me so many years to become comfortable enough with myself for such a change. I've grown out of who I used to be. So, here's to a new start and a brand new me...
P.S. I've been posting stuff like crazy on Facebook, so I would truly appreciate if you "liked" my page. ;)

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.

I'm making some BIG changes in my life. More about that at a later date --- it's time, way past time. The round peg can't be forced into the square hole. :-)

for many years my garden was a shrubbery flic.kr/p/Lhv9ag which i loved. a picket fence covered in an ivy hedge coming down in a storm flic.kr/p/2gnCyih meant that over time changes had to happen flic.kr/p/2mn2x8a i'll be glad when the trellis is covered in honeysuckle and jasmine. that's the plan ...

Yet another shot I got from Westonbirt!! On a very misty day!! lol!!
Let me know if you are getting bored of the autumn shots and I will post a different subject!!
I hope you are all having an awesome day my friends!!
Almond Orchard - Changing of seasons, just like the changing of the leaves, we make a new memory, each time we moves on.
Every day we change
a new moment in time.
We now share it
with the World Online.
A new beginning
a fresh start.
With our keyboard
we can open up our heart.
As we go thru life and think
of the times that used to be.
Just like the changing of the leaves,
we make a new memory.
So no matter where we are,
and for whatever reason.
We will always remember our dreams
with the changing of the seasons.

Photos of new and old Raleigh station about a month before the change over. City of Greensboro leads the Sunday Charlotte-Raleigh train.
A few days ago we had blue skies and sunshine but as the week has moved along our weather has changed and now we are getting very strong winds and no doubt more rain!!
Stay Safe Everyone!

Celebrate Impermanence - Day 4
Change can come about in many ways. Sometimes we seek it out and other times it comes upon us unawares. There are many crossroads throughout life and choices to be made. We ask ourselves: "Shall I turn right or left or shall I just keep walking straight on."
Whatever change we make, or which comes upon us without warning, putting our trust in the long term outcome gives us a new found strength and confidence to carry on, come what may.

Visiting the Caltrain station at Fourth and King Streets in San Francisco for the first time since a vacation with my parents around 1987 revealed alot of changes. Hard to believe at that time the Caltrain F40PH's were only a couple years old. I remember wandering around freely with my dad, now the entire facility and approach tracks are competely fenced off. Even the doors to the platforms at the station are locked unless a train is loading on that track. Standing on top of a guardrail in the employee parking lot I was able to get a few shots of the Saturday afternoon lineup. I also managed to find one unlocked door to a platform before finding out the rest were locked. Most of the 20 original F40PH units have been rebuilt with separate Caterpillar generators after being rebuilt by Alstom in 1999, redesignated F40PH-2CAT. They also roster 3 F40PH-2C units built by Boise in the late 90's and 6 MP36PH-3C built by MPI in the early 2000's. With electricfication of this line planned for the near future it looks like major changes are coming.

IF I COULD CHANGE THE WORLD
If I could change the world
everyone would have food to eat
no one would be alone
no one would have to suffer
no more wars, no more deaths, no more injustice,
no more abuse, no more suicides
but one person can not change the world
by themselves
but you can change the outcomes of others
every moment, every grace
every step you take
can relfect and change someone's
life and outlook on life
maybe one smile a day
can brighten there whole day
that one word you say
might just be that pick up they might need
to see a brighter light
to change the world
can only be like foot prints in the sand
everyone person has to take a stand
say what you feel
do what you must
this is how we will bust
to be able to change the world
one minute at a time

Sometimes one has to change something, otherwise things will be boring. So compare this one with the older captures from the subway in Bonn:
Today I became aware of an amazing organization promoting peace, social justice and global harmony through music. Playing for Change at playingforchange.com is remarkable and worth supporting. Their videos are exceptional.
Give a listen to this one, youtu.be/ph1GU1qQ1zQ
"“The Weight,” features Ringo Starr and The Band's original member Robbie Robertson, along with musicians across 5 continents. Great songs can travel everywhere bridging what divides us and inspiring us to see how easily we all get along when the music plays."
Remarkable and inspiring music!
"Playing For Change is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music, born from the shared belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. Our primary focus is to record and film musicians performing in their natural environments and combine their talents and cultural power in innovative videos we call Songs Around the World. Creating these videos motivated us to form the Playing For Change Band—a tangible, traveling representation of our mission, featuring musicians met along our journey; and establish the Playing For Change Foundation—a separate 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to building music and art schools for children around the world. Through these efforts, we aim to create hope and inspiration for the future of our planet."

Nothing is so painful to the human mind as great and sudden change - Mary Shelley.
The leaves have nearly all fallen and the trees are looking so bare. Now, the sun doesn't rise until I'm already on the train in the morning and is beginning to set before I'm home. Nighttime stretches out so much longer than daytime and I can always see my breath like smoke in the air. I almost feel like I don't even know where autumn went.

Lonaconing Silk Mill
A sad story ... mill workers clocked out after an honest day's work, only to be told not to return the next day, or ever. Owners closed the mill due to a labor dispute...without prior warning. Workers were not granted re-entry to claim their belongings. Now nature reclaims it all, building and contents.
Luhan & Pontus
I've made some changes on few dolls recently, and now I did a few changes on these 2 boys!
The only thing I did on Luhan was that I tried to "dye" his hair with a black pencil and water like I did on that Ombré hair : www.flickr.com/photos/89863259@N08/15165925309/
It's hard to see, but a little darker than before, and also did dark circles under his eyes (Now he looks like Tao! ^w^)
And for Pontus, I did the same with his hair, a blue pencil and water and I LOVE IT! He looks better in blueish hair than his blone. =)

I took this yesterday off the front porch...every year this maple tree has a portion of it change before the remainder of it...so I capitalized on the change by shooting some premature fall leaf shots..:-)
During the route changes 2 weeks ago the biggest was service 33 which was cut back from Gorebridge to Sheriffhall and Baberton to Wester Hailes eventhough the Gorebridge part was replaced by new service 48 I think this was a really stupid move with the huge amount of building happening at Gorebridge and the mass amount of passengers which got the 33 from the RIE which a single Decker bus just doesn't have the capacity for which means Lothian will miss out on buisness.
Here we see on a rare Sunday Lothian Buses 814 one of my priority buses for a photo of seen here at the University of Edinburgh on a service 33 for Wester Hailes/ Clovenstone.
