Happy Valentines Day! Hope you all had an awesome day. :) Haha so the title is a bit of a downer considering this is the "day of love." Whatever. I thought it was cool sounding...
These are just staples that I bent (hmmm bended?) into a heart shape. Then I stuck them in an old picket fence...Very exciting I know. :)

August bank holiday weekend I had another wonderful visit from my dear friend Bella and we had a great time!
Saturday daytime in town, a wander around the marina and Humber Street followed by delicious food at the Indoor Market Food Hall.
Dinner in the Indoor Market Food Hall. The halloumi fries were amazing!
Sicuro almeno una volta vi sarà capitato di imbattervi in giudizi e racconti di turisti che lasciano perplessi..siti internet e forum per viaggiatori offrono commenti di ogni genere e recensioni per ogni posto del pianeta e ci sono volte che una volta provati alcuni posti di cui avete letto le impressioni sarete rimasti con un affermazione su tutte: "ma che cazzo diceva quello!"
Faccio questa premessa per ricordare che sto raccontando la mia esperienza e mi ritengo abbastanza obbiettivo quando esprimo commenti!;)
LA MIA PRIMA AFRICA:
La mia avventura in Africa è durata 19 giorni un buon periodo per vedere molte cose e fare tante foto.
Appena arrivati l'impatto è stato subito forte arrivo a Nairobi di notte e pernottamento in una specie di fortino con guardie armate a 10mt dalle favelas dei sobborghi.
Il giorno seguente senza neanche vedere la città siamo subito Partiti direzione Masai Mara, lungo la strada appena usciti dal traffico indescrivibile di Nairobi una scena quasi odierna ci ha dato il benvenuto in Africa,un ragazzo come tutti fanno ha provato ad attraversare la strada poco prima ed è stato travolto e lasciato sull'asfalto senza vita,cruenta Africa dove rischi e morte sono cose odierne.
Proseguendo il viaggio andando verso le zone meno popolose si passano paesini che si sviluppano intorno alla strada principale che la attraversa, posti che fanno capire già molto solo vedendoli di passaggio: gente tutta in strada che rincorre le auto sul l'autostrada cercando di vendere polli o arance o patate,moto taxi tutti parcheggiati in attesa di trasportare qualcosa o qualcuno per pochi kesh,gente che dorme sul ciglio della strada aspettando il bus...
Eravamo preparati a vedere la povertà ma non a vedere la gente cosi a suo agio in simili condizioni.
Arrivati alla riserva prese le nostre tende nei lodge facciamo il primo game drive, il Mara e senza dubbio il parco del Kenya che piu rispecchia il paesaggio africano della savana,animali a non finire,furgoni di turisti a non finire strade piu ramificate di una città,ma nonostante il traffico rimane un posto molto suggestivo.
Eh si tocca ammetterlo mai quanto durante i safari che ho fatto ho detestato i turisti,invasivi e troppi per quello che doveva essere un paradiso animale,che invece tra Mara nakuru e amboseli erano piu intasati delle strade normali,ma me lo sarei aspettato.
Il giorno seguente siamo andati al fiume Mara per cercare di assistere alla migrazione ma dopo 3 ore di appostamenti e inseguimenti ad un branco di 500gnu questi non se la sono sentita di attraversare e ci hanno lasciato con la bocca asciutta come i coccodrilli che erano sotto ad aspettarli!
Il giorno seguente siamo partiti per Nakuru Lake, alla volta dei Flamingo che dovevano tingere di rosa il lago, cosa che purtroppo non è avvenuta a causa dell'assenza dei volatili che avevano deciso di non passare le vacanze al lago quest'anno...(grrrrR!)
Il periodo trascorso al lago nonostante la pioggia è stato reso piacevole da qualche avvistamento di Rhino e Leone ma sopratutto da un resort di extra lusso che aveva un affaccio bellissimo che era affollato di babbuini...giorno seguente si è ripartiti subito alla volta del monte Kilimanjaro e il famoso Amboseli National Park!
Un giorno di viaggio intero e poi nottata in un altro lodge da urlo! E pensare che io ero partito con l'idea di fare una vacanza allo stato brado, selvaggio, invece mi sono ritrovato a farmi doccia calda con idromassaggio e piacevoli dormite al fresco di lodge tendati ma di estremo lusso!
Ultimo giorno di Safari l'abbiamo trascorso interamente al parco amboseli dalle 6,30 di mattina alle 17,45 di pomeriggio.
Chi conosce Amboseli soltanto può capire cosa abbiamo provato...
cerco di descriverlo in breve, il parco offre una vista meravigliosa essendo alle falde del monte più grande dell'africa, che sormonta il paesaggio dall'alto dei suoi 6km di altezza... Oltre al kilimanjaro è possibile vedere centinaia di elefanti di tutti i tipi,alti,magri,giovani e veccchi,giganti e minuti,in gruppo o solitari... assieme agli elefanti non si riescono a contare le zebre e le gazzelle che ci sono...per il resto....deserto.
Kilometri e kilometri di deserto,steppa,arido,polveroso.
Per ore non si riesce a vedere altro che furgoni di turisti, gli unici punti di interesse certificati è un lodge abbandonato abitato dai babbuini e un monte panoramico dove tutti si fermano per pranzo e per scattare 2 foto...per il resto deserto, tanto che in 8 e passa ore di safari avrò dormito almeno 5 ore....peccato,forse passare una giornata intera nei parchi non conviene poichè nelle ore centrali gli animali si nascondono chissà dove...
Finito Amboseli siamo partiti alla volta di Mombasa...8h ancora in van,le ultime.
Mombasa deve essere una bella cittadina,un porto di mare,non sono riuscito a vederla, ma ci sono passato in mezzo e credo di non aver mai ma mai visto cosi tanti mezzi pesanti e traffico come a Mombasa...
Arrivati a Watamu finalmente ci aspetta il mare, sapevamo che era la stagione delle alghe ma nonostante tutto la baia di Watamu è ugualmente suggestiva e quando arriva l'alta marea tutto cambia aspetto. La spiaggia più bella è senza dubbio però El Garoda una baia a 6 km dal Watamu che si può raggiungere facilmente con 150kesh in tuk-tuk.
Mi sembra obbligato pubblicizzare un ragazzo li che mi ha trattato benissimo, si chiama Sule(credo si scriva cosi), non è Zucchero il rastone, ma è un tipo giovane sui 26anni molto in gamba che cucina divinamente! Se andate li passate da lui, mi ringrazierete.
Per il resto ho passato solo 4 giorni in (come la chiamano loro) Milano2, e una delle cose che non mi dimenticherò mai di quel posto è il buio.
Si perchè nel periodo in cui sono stato in Africa non ho mai avvistato la Luna. Di conseguenza il cielo era nero nero.
Via da Watamu siamo, finalmente, partiti verso Zanzibar...viaggiato con la Fly540 che devo essere onesto si è comportata eccellentemente nonostante la tratta di appena 40min.
L'arrivo a Zanzibar è stato accolto con il solito dribbling ai tips per bagaglio,tips per immigration e taxi assedio. Stavolta c'era anche la difficoltà di cambio valuta e dalla necessità di prelevare subito....finite queste pratiche siamo potuti andare al nostro Kendwa Rocks.
Una piccola premessa sull'isola, io non ho avuto grandi occasioni per girarla,anzi tutt'altro ero in una parte dell'isola in cui per raggiungere Stone Town occorrevano 50$ di taxi e 1,20h di auto...
Mi sarebbe piaciuto girare e visitare come ho fatto in Tailandia ma qui non era fattibile un po' per la zona dove alloggiavo che non aveva centri abitati vicini, un po perchè quando cala la luce con quel buio è sempre poco sicuro addentrarsi in zone che non si conoscono, considerando poi che gia di giorno ti assalgono beach boy e venditori ambulanti...
Detto questo Zanzibar è un paradiso,ma ancora per poco. È fuori da ogni dubbio che sia, per me, il mare più bello mai visto, colori celesti, fondali bianchi e acqua cristallina.
Questo meraviglioso mare, si affianca ad un verde della vegetazione che crea uno spettacolo di colori indescrivibile.
Facendo snorkeling non si è riuscito a scorgere una grande barriera corallina,che sicuramente sarà a disposizione solo dei Sub,però c'era una folta fauna marina molto colorata! Andando verso Mnemba ci siamo addentrati nella costa Est di Zanzibar, dove tutto è più selvaggio,dove non ci sono insediamenti umani e resort che deteriorano il panorama e lo spettacolo li era fuori da ogni immaginario.
8 giorni di relax sono bastati sull'isola,che nonostante un tempo talvolta tropicale ci ha regalato bagni e tramonti da sogno.
Peccato per gli abitanti che differentemente dal Kenya erano maleducati e sulle loro, a questo giudizio forse però fa peso lo scarso servizio e le sventure capitate al Kendwa Rocks...
Insomma un Africa diversa, diversa da quello che mi aspettavo, diversa nel clima che pensavo soffocante, ma comunque ricca di emozioni, di esperienze e visioni che, anche se già assaporate in tutte le salse sugli schermi, dal vivo lasciano un ricordo indelebile che diventa sempre più prezioso con il passare dei giorni.

Bad news: While taking these photos, my camera fell off my tripod and broke. Im mad. I lost the piece of my tripod that holds the camera to it back in the fall when Katie and I were taking pictures together. Safe to say, I may not be posting as many pictures any time soon.
Good news: Wednesday Im leaving with Devon and his family to their houseboat. We're staying for a week so Im really looking forward to it. Oh and the weather is now officially summerish! Its been in the 60s and 70s the past week or so and now its in the 80s, much better.
As always, your comments and critiques are encouraged.
About
I had the day off of work today so that gave me a little extra time to mess around with the camera. During the holiday season it seems like everything is a little crazier than usual so I thought something like this would be fitting.
The shot is composed of images for each item and the background shot separately with the same lighting setup. Everything was merged in photoshop with some curves adjustments and sharpening for web.

A beautiful historic Scottish Fishing bay dating back to the 1700's, under duress due to problems between the "Owner" and local fishermen who have utilised this historic harbour as they and their fore fathers have done for hundreds of years .
I revisited today Tuesday 27th August 2019 , I was disappointed to see concrete barriers blocking access to cars and fishing boats , sad circumstances indeed , though I still managed to capture as much of the bays charm a I could , its ongoing battle and new concrete blocks preventing access made me feel unhappy and sad, any ways I have pasted some of my previous comments and news items reference this pathetic situation below for your perusal, I am on the side of the fishermen , its a sad tale indeed.
Check my previous posts in my Cove Bay folder for photos of the harbour in its glory days that I have taken over the years before this nonsense raised its ugly head.
Previous Posts
I love this bay, its a beautiful tranquil place, however after reading news reports on a court judgement 13/7/2018 forcing the fisher men to remove their boats within 28 days it saddened me, hence I made a trip today Friday 13th July 2018 to capture the views and scenery before this unpopular ruling is implemented, what a sad situation indeed, I have included the news report on the legal wrangle at the end of this description.
Cove is a 20 minute drive from my home in Aberdeen Scotland, it was a pleasure to visit today and capture the tranquility that it presented.
Scattered across the harbour are stones with various sealife characters carved into them.
Cove Bay is a suburb on the south-east edge of Aberdeen, Scotland.
Today Cove is home to over 7000 people. It is a popular residential location owing to its extremely village-like status.
It is a quiet suburb just at the edge of the City and in 2015 won the Silver award for Scotland in bloom. Nearby Altens and Tullos Industrial Estates, affording ample employment opportunities.
History
Cove Bay is situated to the east of the ancient Causey Mounth, which road was built on high ground to make passable this only available medieval route from coastal points south from Stonehaven to Aberdeen.
This ancient trackway specifically connected the River Dee crossing (where the Bridge of Dee is located) via Portlethen Moss, Muchalls Castle and Stonehaven to the south.
The route was that taken by William Keith, 7th Earl Marischal and the Marquess of Montrose, who led a Covenanter army of 9000 men in the battle of the Civil War in 1639.
Cove Bay was a village in the extreme north-east corner of Kincardine, governed from Stonehaven, until 1975, when it was added to the City of Aberdeen. Though simply referred to as Cove, in the 19th and early 20th centuries it was known as The Cove, becoming Cove Bay around 1912.
Industry
Cove has been noted for industries such as granite, which was quarried in several locations to the south of the village. Owing to its close-grained texture, Cove granite was one of the hardest in north-east Scotland and proved highly resistant to frost, making it ideal for causeway stones used in the construction of roads. It was widely exported to cities in England, including Billingsgate Market in London.
Fishing
The village itself sprung up around the fishing industry, with the boats berthed on a shingle beach, a gap in the rocks that afforded a natural harbour. During this time, it is estimated that approximately 300 people lived in the area. In the mid 19th century the fishing was at its height, which, over years, has included cod, haddock, salmon, herring and shellfish. The piers and breakwater were constructed in 1878. At the end of World War I the fishing began to decline. At present only a couple of boats pursue shellfish on a part-time basis.
Between 1894 and 1937, Cove also housed a fishmeal factory, the Aberdeen Fish Meal Factory, which was located at the edge of the cliffs. It produced quality manure which was exported to both Europe and America. It became locally known as "the stinker" because of the processing odour, which was highlighted by the Aberdeen entertainer Harry Gordon in a parody entitled A Song of Cove.
Amenities
Retail
Cove has just had a brand new Co-operative built just off of Earnshugh Circle.
To the west of Loirston Road is the Cove Shopping Centre, which overlooks Loirston Primary School. This houses a pharmacist, the Wee China Chinese takeaway/Chip shop, Ruby Tuesdays beauty salon and the Harr Rock cafe (Cove's second).
Within the new development of cove a local Sainsbury's has opened. There is also the Harr Rock Cafe (the first one), a hairdressers and a gift shop within the new development.
There are also 2 RS McColl newsagents. One located at Bervie Brow in Altens, and a second located on the corner of Loirston Road and Cove Road which also houses a Post Office.
Hospitality
The Cove Bay hotel is located on Colsea Road. There is also The Aberdeen Altens Hotel in Altens, which has 216 bedrooms, making it the largest of the three Thistle Hotels in Aberdeen.
There is also a pub, the Langdykes which now has an Indian restaurant situated inside called The Curry lounge which you can sit in or take away.
Transport
Bus services to and from Cove and the wider area of Aberdeen are available. These are run by First Aberdeen with the numbers 3 (to Mastrick) and the 18 to Dyce, via Kincorth. Stagecoach also cover cove partially, with numbers 7A & 8 (Both to the City Centre).
Healthcare
Cove Bay has its own medical centre, the Cove Bay Medical Centre. It was originally located on Catto Walk, but moved to a new facility off Earns Hugh Road. Cove Dental Care has since moved into the old surgery building.
Sport
Cove is currently home to two football teams: Cove Rangers, who currently play in the Highland Football League, they temporarily play in Harlow Park, Inverurie, as their old home Allan park was demolished to make way for housing. Cove Thistle, who hold amateur status. Sunday amateur team Cove Revolution folded in 2010.
There are also many youth teams in the area that are run by Cove Youth FC. The Cove Youth FC area SFA credited community club, organizing players from 6 years old up to 19 years old. They also have a girls section. The Cove Community Football Trust is run by Cove Rangers FC, Cove Thistle FC and Cove Youth FC.
Other Amenities
A state-of-the-art library was recently built between Loirston Primary School and the Cove Shopping Centre. There are blueprints for a local sports centre to also be built in the near future.
Education
Cove has two primary schools, Charleston Primary School and Loirston Primary School. Most secondary pupils attend the nearby Kincorth Academy, but some choose to go to Portlethen Academy.
Future Developments
Aberdeen Gateway[edit]
Construction on a new Aberdeen Gateway industrial development began in 2008. It will see new offices and industrial units built to the south of the village. Current tenants at the site include National Oilwell Varco (NOV), Driving Standards Agency and Hydrasun. A Community football pitch is also inlcluded within the development.
Cove Academy
Plans for a secondary school in Cove have now been approved and will be situated alongside Wellington Road. It is thought that once this is built pupils from Cove, Torry as well as Kincorth will attend this school.
The Legal Wrangle - Landowner V Fishermen - Judgement 13/7/18
Fishermen told to move boats from Cove Bay after legal dispute
Fishermen have been told to move their boats from an Aberdeen bay after a long-running dispute.
Several fishermen were fighting an eviction order on behalf of landowner Pralhad Kolhe at Cove Bay, where they had been fishing for many years.
In a written judgement, a sheriff has given them 28 days to move their boats and equipment from Mr Kolhe's land.
However, Sheriff Andrew Miller also ordered the removal of obstructions to vehicular access onto the pier.
The case was heard at Aberdeen Sheriff Court earlier this year.
One of the fisherman, Jim Adam, told a court he was "stunned" to receive a legal letter telling him to remove his boat.
He had been fishing from Cove Bay since 1966.
'We were hopeful'
The first day of the hearing heard the letter said the landowner, who lives in a house overlooking the harbour, was unable to make use of his land for amenity purposes and that he did not wish Mr Adam's vessel, or any other vessel, on his land.
In the ruling, Sheriff Miller also gave Mr Kolhe 28 days to remove the obstructions to vehicle access to the pier.
Mr Adam told BBC Scotland: "We are disappointed, we were hopeful.
"The good news is at least for the recreational folks they have got vehicle access."
News Report From P&J Aberdeen
A campaign group could use new powers to try to buy the land at the centre of a long-running dispute over access to Cove Harbour.
Councillors in Aberdeen agreed yesterday to investigate using the purchase powers contained in the Community Empowerment Scotland Act 2015 to finally resolve the stand-off.
The proposal was backed after Jim Adam, chairman of the Cove Fishermen Association, delivered an emotional plea to Aberdeen City Council’s petitions committee yesterday.
He outlined the group’s ongoing disagreement with the landowner, Pralhad Kohle, over vehicle access to the harbour-side.
Mr Adam highlighted the historical use of the harbour since the 1700s for fishing boats and recreational users, showing members photographs as evidence.
He also said the denial of emergency access to the harbour would create safety issues, and spoke of a strong community spirit in the village.
Cove Councillor Neil Cooney stated: “Boats have been fishing out of Cove since mediaeval times; we need to retain that heritage.”
Committee convener Alan Donnelly said: “You would think, with 11,000 signatures, that the owner would take it seriously and come along.”
He added: “We are moving today that the council refers the petition to the landowner, with the hope that they can come to an amicable solution.
“And request a report to the communities, housing and infrastructure committee to investigate the viability of the community to use the new Community Empowerment Scotland Act 2015 to purchase the land.”
Speaking afterwards Mr Adam said: “We are very encouraged by the support from the council. It’s very positive and has opened up a number of avenues, but we would like there to be an amicable solution.
“The Community Empowerment Act is a very useful tool, but it would be a last resort.”
Mr Kohle, who was not in attendance, owns a house overlooking the bay and some of the land at the harbour below.
Scotland’s First Minister has pledged to investigate the “suffering” faced by the Cove Harbour fishing community as a result of a devastating fire and a dispute with the landlord.
The first minister promised action after being warned the Scottish Government risked ignoring a group whose livelihoods had been threatened by recent events.
Ms Sturgeon said the government wanted “to do everything we possibly can” to help communities faced with difficulties after the Cove Harbour situation was raised with her.
In January, thousands of pounds worth of damage was caused when a fire, thought to be deliberate, destroyed five vessels, boating equipment, a shed and fishing gear.
The community has also been involved in a long-running battle with landowner Pralhad Kolhe, a plastic surgeon who had sought to evict the fishermen’s fleet of traditional vessels from the part of the harbour he owns.
The Cove Fisherman’s Association had a four-year legal battle with Mr Kolhe, and lost their fight to dock their small fleet of traditional vessels at a particular part of Cove Harbour last year.
Last August the remaining vessels at the site were finally moved from Mr Kolhe’s land to a small corner of the harbour. The judgement said access to the pier for walkers and vehicles should be maintained.
After January’s fire, North East MSP Liam Kerr wrote to Rural Economy Secretary Fergus Ewing asking for support for the fishermen.
Mr Ewing replied say he was “very saddened” by the disaster but financial support would be “limited”.
Yesterday Mr Kerr raised Cove Harbour with Ms Sturgeon in the Scottish Parliament.
Mr Kerr told the first minister the Cove Harbour fishing community was “suffering” and faced “significant” legal costs.
The Tory MSP said the fishermen had requested a meeting with Mr Ewing “but to no avail”.
And he asked Ms Sturgeon to persuade Mr Ewing to meet the community and “not risk ignoring a community facing the loss of their livelihoods”.
The First Minister said: “Of course we want to do everything we possibly can to help any community experiencing difficulties.
“I am not aware beyond what the member has just said of the content of the correspondence to Fergus Ewing.
“But I am happy to give an undertaking to look into that and if Fergus Ewing thinks there is help the Scottish Government can offer – certainly to meet with those affected.”
A group of Aberdeen fishermen who lost a court case last year have been hit with a legal fee bill of around £45,000 – just days after their cherished vessels were destroyed in a malicious fire.
The Cove Fishermen’s Association was forced to move its boats at Cove Harbour last year after a court ruled in favour of landowner Pralhad Kolhe – who owns sections of the historic bay.
Mr Kolhe has been seeking to remove the small fleet of boats from his land, but in the months since the court’s decision, the fishermen have continued their activities by keeping their remaining vessels in a much smaller pocket of the harbour not under the landowner’s control, further away from the shoreline

Every time I come back to Russia, people ask me "Why? It's cold and grey here. Spain is much better". True: most of days are cloudy, people can be grumpy and rude (lack of sunlight, I guess), Moscow is overpopulated, dirty and extremly expensive.
How could I don't come back?
Because there is beauty in ugliness too. At least when that ugliness has been your home for seven years. Sometimes even without the ugly part.
YOUR COMMENT IS THE GREATEST "AWARD" YOU COULD GIVE -- No graphics please.

From my trip to Germany. Love to be inspired by new places and cultures. Love to be in green natural places like this, probably because I live in the city normally. Definitely want more of this in the future.
Anyone want to do a photo collaboration? Im itching to do something. (UK/Europe/Worldwide)

Trisha, one of our good friends who we see regularly in Leeds and at other events, decided to do a couple of nights in Hull so Gemma came to stay as well, and we made a weekend of it.
It meant swapping Leeds First Friday for Hull in March but that was no problem - it's good to mix things up a bit, and I'm always happy to have friends visit my home town!
In the Admiral of the Humber Wetherspoons, before heading across to The Star.
I really appreciate all the love, support, comment, encouragement, and feedback I've received.

Gemma came up to Hull for Hallowe'en weekend and we had a fantastic time!
Saturday night was such a brilliant social night - we met so many people and had the best time!
We started off at the Masters Bar but we were a bit in a corner there so it was difficult to meet people. So we headed on to The Star afterwards and really made up for it!
Dancing to a bit of electro-swing! This track is called Madame Coquette. A bit different and I love it - can't help but smile to this!

It was so good to be back in Lincoln for a weekend after missing it last year. We love Lincoln, it's such a beautiful city.
Saturday evening was just a fantastic evening! We got glammed up and went out looking for somewhere to eat - more difficult than normal because of booking restrictions. But we found a nice Vietnamese place.
After that we walked up steep hill - it is very very steep! - in our heels! That was a first and it actually wasn't too bad - much more difficult coming down, ha ha! And at the top we met a lovely group of girls.
The we went off to The Scene for the evening - it was lovely to be back there. First time we had heard loud music in a public place since pre-pandemic too so it was almost like the old days, although we did have to stay seated at our table.
Back at The Scene.
