This Hellebore was a garden trade with a friend and I have no idea what variety it is other than prolific and beautiful. The blooms on this one tend to face downward, but this one was looking up just enough to get a close shot!
We are now having a return to cooler weather. Down in the 40s today and very windy! A freeze tonight.....

#16 - Close Together
Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
Close custody inmates are not allowed to wear t-shirts. They just get this incredibly hard wearing uniform. Full restraints whenever being moved outside won't add any comfort. It's used as a punishment for hardened felons, but also as a shock incarceration for first-time offenders. You hate it? Well, you should better bring your life back on track.

Challenge #44: close ("nært")
I've been struggling with this week's challenge for some reason. But I got some inspiration from Naustvik's shot, so I decided to have a go at my chronograph. I love the details on this watch, so I opted to do some dramatic lighting, trying to get a commercial look. Did I succeed?
Technical details
Shot handheld with my Canon EF 100mm macro in a dark room. 1/500 second exposure at f/2.8, ISO 400. Lighting provided by LED lamp placed close to the watch at camera right.
Victor giving me a thousand yard stare.. he has seen it all.. we meet up often,he hangs out in my area..

It is with great sadness that I learned that long-time friend and noted rail photographer Dave Augsburger passed away yesterday afternoon. I find that as I process the photos that I post here, I think more about the friends that I was with as well as circumstances and incidents that accompanied the outing than I do the train itself. Dave comes to mind frequently. Beside photography, Dave and I shared interests in history of the Lehigh & New England and other anthracite railroads, prewar American Flyer trains, and Pennsylvania Dutch (German) culture and language.
Here, in happier days, Dave and I were out for the day, and had gone in futile search for an infrequent Conrail train that served the cement mill in Evansville, Pennsylvania, With the day coming to a close, we decided to stop by the Wanamaker, Kempton, & Southern in Kempton. Seeing an opportunity, I had the most prolific photographer of the Lehigh & New England pose next to one of the WK&S’ L&NE gondolas. Dave is now with many of his contemporary friends who have passed in recent years, including Dick Samsel and Neil Shankweiler. I will miss Dave and treasure the many memories of him for years to come.
"Sometimes when I get a moment
In the middle of the day
And nothing else needs my attention
I take my chance and slip away
I close my eyes, I close my eyes and think of you
I close my heavy eyes and that's all I need to do..."
Finally, a close-up look at the Sears exterior signage: 1990s logo and inevitable store closing banner. This store originally opened in the 1950s (I believe) with the script Sears logo; I really love the architecture. Unfortunately, most Memphians could care less, and are much more excited to see this Sears torn down and replaced by a Nordstrom Rack past its closure next month...

These places are public so these photos are too, but just as I tell where they came from, I'd appreciate if you'd say who :)

We are prone to think that we have to move away to get things in perspective and it is true: this allows us to have an overall outlook. But there is another way to understand life and it consist in staying close to what is happening to us. Read more on my blog: myhealingmoments.blogspot.com.es/2014/05/day-525.html
