I have wanted to do something different for a while, then one gets lost in what can only be described as "Photographers Block", akin to "Writers Block" same thing yet different tool of creativity. I even deleted a photo I put up yesterday as I hated it, simply because experimental change is sometimes difficult, in the enigmatic paradigm of remaining as was, yet contradicted by the yearn for change, albeit lost for choice yet unable to see the forest for the trees! If you catch my convoluted drift?!

I think the criteria of assumed "change" is tethered to the idea of realising that ,change, in one's self cannot therefore be abridged to the same/similar ideas of others, it is a struggle then to remain original. I am still trying to conquer it whilst trying to not to lose my perspective to the idea of absolutes!

So this photo I took along the A100 with the Westhafen Canal running parallel, in which there are three or four barges moored along the walkway, I had been meaning to get to them since the weather has since started to slowly improve. They are basically big floating elongated buckets of either nothing or asphalt, earth and what have you. But they are interesting for the very old mechanical presence, compositional offerings and overall differing of imagery from nature and anything else that has been done to death so far. The clouds were thin and wonderfully striated offering a bokeh contradiction of composition's directional flow. It was tricky getting the angle as I wanted to get the motorway out of the focus completely.

That's all my waffle for today, I hope everyone's' week has gotten off well and so as always, thank you! :)

"Finally it is confirmed that the cat of Lady Witch committed the crime of eating "Fish". After a thorough investigation there was enough evidence to come to this conclusion and he also confessed being guilty.

Cat was deprived of being a magical black cat and was send to the moon to get his color back. How long his stay there will be is unknown, it depends how many falling stars he will catch and eat. Now he is feeling blue.

So if you spot a "not yet black" cat on a crescent moon, you know why", according to the Newspaper O-Ri_G_A-Mi.

BLOG #50

I started taking a picture a day beginning September 24, 2013 - today is 1,078 days in a row. My goal was to learn how to use my camera to take better pictures of my daughter but she has never liked being the subject so I haven't gotten much better at documentary or portrait photography.

What I have done is become obsessed with light. When I got home from working out today the sprinklers were on, it was about 10 minutes after sunrise. I committed to incorporating the light and the effect of the sprinklers so I sprawled out on the wet lawn determined to get the shot. I like the leaf that was there, it gives a hint that fall is in the air.

I feel like I was channeling Joy Jordan today.

A handshake was a contract, it was commitment to a deal, a friendship, or a sincere greeting.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,

committed people can change the world.

Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. - Margaret Mead

Each time a person stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, these ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls

of oppression and resistance.

Robert Kennedy

We don't have to engage in grand, heroic actions to

participate in the process of change.

Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people,

can transform the world.

A Canada Goose about to land. Kane County, Illinois

The scuffles we witnessed on the lek usually involved a couple of birds facing off and trying to grab feathers from each other. These two birds, however, were much more committed to conflict-- multiple times we saw them latch on to each other and end up rolling on the ground as they tried to get the other to submit. They always strutted away, apparently no worse for the wear, but it was a bit unnerving. They were definitely the exception to what we saw, though.

While I may have observed the Rule of Thirds, I confess I've committed mortal photographic sins here in the name of 'art'. Ever take a photo and say to yourself, 'Self, that's nice, but what if...." and before long you end up with an image that is way, way dramatically different than the original, but appeals to you more? (Sure you have.) A tweak here with the colour temp; a tweak there with the contrast; and then the editing drugs kick in and you're slamming those sliders left and right until the pixels quit talking to each other and leave the room. "Sorry," I say, "I don't mean to offend -- it's just that you, my digital friend, look more dramatic if I crop out all but a tenth of the original image," ...Rendering it a blob of noise and blur. "But it's Art," I exclaim, in self-defence. "People will applaud my Vision-thing, and maybe even the Flickr algorithm gods will smile down and decide it is Explore-worthy..." Uh, sure.... Maybe I need rehab; put the S1 on eBay, cancel my Adobe subscription, and shoot film again, leaving it to the kid at the pharmacy to send away my rolls for processing, just as his father did, back in the photographic Stone Age.

My Monday flower greeting is coming a little bit from the wrong path today. What you see here is obviously not a flower, but part of a flower (although I can't say for sure which one). Since I've never officially committed to buds, I'll let this deviation from the rule pass.

In addition, I have had the urgent need to share this picture with you for days. The picture is one of my first attempts with the Pope Shield Macro Diffuser (this is not a paid advertisement) and I have to say I was blown away from the first moment.

Especially when it comes to getting really close to the object, it used to be very difficult (for clarification, the blade is about 1 cm wide). On the one hand, because the object moved, even if only minimally, or because you had hardly any depth of field due to a very open aperture and had to compensate for it with focus stacking, which was very time-consuming. The latter was often not always possible, mainly (see first) because the object was moving.

This shot is the result of a single attempt, freehand.

If I want to have pictures with a soft bokeh, I will of course go back to the previous techniques. However, if it is in the maximum details, then I am convinced.

I took other shots that rainy day. In the end you can form your own opinion.

Mein montäglicher Blumengruß kommt heute ein klein wenig auf Abwegen daher. Das was Ihr hier seht ist ganz offensichtlich keine Blüte, wohl aber ein Teil einer Blume (auch wenn ich nicht mit Gewissheit sagen kann von welcher). Da ich mich nie offiziell auf Blüten festgelegt habe, lass ich diese Abweichung von der Regel hiermit durchgehen.

Außerdem habe ich seit Tagen das dringende Bedürfnis dieses Bild mit Euch zu teilen. Das Bild ist einer meiner ersten Versuche mit dem Makro Diffuser von Pope Shield (das ist keine bezahlte Werbung) und ich muss sagen, ich war vom ersten Moment an von den Socken.

Besonders, wenn es darum geht wirklich nah an das Objekt heran zu gehen, war das bisher sehr mühselig (zur Verdeutlichung, das Blatzt ist ca. 1 cm breit). Zum einen, weil sich das Objekt bewegt hat, und sei es auch nur minimal oder weil man durch eine sehr offene Blende kaum Tiefenschärfe hatte und das mit Fokus Stacking sehr aufwendig wieder ausgleichen musste. Letzteres war auch oft nicht immer möglich und zwar hauptsächlich (siehe erstens) weil sich das Objekt bewegt hat.

Diese Aufnahme ist das Ergebnis von einem einzigen Versuch und zwar freihand.

Wenn ich Bilder mit einem weichen Bokeh haben möchte werde ich natürlich wieder auf die bisherigen Techniken zurück greifen. Wenn es jedoch im maximale Details geht, dann bin ich überzeugt.

Ich habe an diesem Regentag noch andere Aufnahmen gemacht. Am Ende könnt Ihr Euch selbst eine Meinung bilden.

“For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps, who committed no sin, nor was any deceit found in His mouth; and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to him who judges righteously; and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. For you were continually straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.” (Peter 2:21-25)

The fella was particularly committed to fishing. We saw him fishing here on several evenings when we walked that way, once with a large barracuda in the sand beside him. So we know he had some success.

We don't know these people, but I like the implied story we get from the positions and directions of their bodies and fishing rods. What do you think the story is?

A couple of summers ago, I witnessed the most meaningful ceremony I've ever seen. My friend G married her longtime love. And before I go on... a word about their love.

It's something you can feel when you walk into their house. It emanates... not just from them, but from the house itself... the furniture... the animals... the garden... the bric a brac. Entering that house is like walking into some big yellow-warm sunshine embrace; it is nothing short of palpable. And seeing them together is even more powerful.

These are two people who just so clearly delight in each other's company. Like all of us, they have their share of less than stellar days, but they're strong for each other, they support one another, they complement each other... and, like I said, when you see them together, you can't help but share a little hiccup in your heart... a skip-step of giddiness. In short, if ever two people should be married, G and her love were those two people. And they're both from backgrounds that value marriage; that see it as the highest expression of togetherness.

But there was one more factor at play that made their wedding the specialest occasion. Until that year, they had not had the legal right to marry. Why? Because G and her One True Love are women. To which I say... So fucking what??

Marriage, as I understand it, is all about love and commitment. And no two people were ever more in love or more committed.

And to those who argue same-sex marriage somehow undermines the so-called sanctity of the so-called institution of marriage... I say heterosexual couples... with their soaring divorce rates, and rampant infidelity, and vicious child-custody disputes... are doing that themselves.

Besides. Why should anyone's choice of who to love... or who to marry... be anyone else's business? As long as no one's being victimized, what's the problem?

One of the arguments advanced here in Canada, where same-sex marriage is legal (for the time being, anyway)... is that, if THIS is okay, then what's next? Polygamy?

To which I say... what's the hairy issue with polygamy? If three people (or four or five or whatever) choose to form a legal bond and raise their family collectively... again, as long as no one's being victimized... what is the problem?

Oh, say the critics, but polygamy's tied to child abuse. Uh, right. That's the same thing they say about same-sex unions... based on their ludicrous assumption that all homosexuals are somehow pedophiles, or sex fiends. Ridiculous.

I've heard otherwise rational men say... I'd never go to a gay male doctor.

To which I say.... don't flatter yourself. Just because a man may be in a love with another man, that doesn't mean he's uncontrollably flinging himself at every damned man who walks through the door. I mean... I have a straight male doctor. That means... oooooohhhh.... gasp.... he has sex with women!!!! But that has absolutely nothing to do with him examining me in his professional capacity.

We have a polygamist sect here in British Columbia, and it's under near-constant scrutiny for child abuse. The allegation is that very young girls are married off to men, against their will.

To which I say... if that's the case, it's child abuse, for sure. But it's an entirely separate issue from the marital status of the parents involved.

Sorry if I'm ranting here, but this whole issue gets my knickers in a major twist. I think it's because... as one of those kids who was teased and taunted for simply being who I was... I sort of understand what it must be like to face such senseless discrimination.

We have today, in too many parts of North America, a culture that says... while most other forms of organized hate and discrimination are frowned upon... it's okay to ostracize and mistreat people... solely on the basis of who they love.

It's insane. I mean... I remember when I first encountered boys. There was an instant ZING! From that time on, I pretty much always had a crush on some boy or other and... lucky me... I was part of a majority, so having those feelings was a-okay.

The gay and lesbian people I've talked to had similar experiences somewhere in their lives.... where they felt that overwhelming sense of attraction and excitement and curiosity. But... unlucky them, they were part of a minority, and made to think that what they felt was somehow bad or wrong.

I'm on this topic today because our federal government (recently elected and right wing) is threatening to undo the same-sex marriage law. This is just the latest in a string of reversals that's included:

- killing the nearly-enacted bill that would've decriminalized marijuana

- killing an agreement with aboriginal people that would've finally begun addressing the deplorable conditions many of them live in

- reversing the country's commitment to do its part to address climate change, and

- killing a multi-year agreement with the provinces that would've made child care somewhat more affordable and accessible.

In the government's eyes, child care is bad. I mean, everyone knows mommies should stay home with their babies while daddies work. Climate change is just a bunch of made-up garbage; after all, those scientists are all a bunch of liberals. Aboriginal people... notwithstanding the fact that white people stole their land, stuck them on reserves, legislated away their rights and tore a whole generation of children away from their families and communities... Notwithstanding that, "those people" are just lazy; they just need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps. As for marijuana... well, we all know it's FAR more harmful than booze, which government not only endorses but shamelessly profits from. I mean... just look at all the domestic strife, and public brawls, and armed standoffs, and traffic carnage caused by those crazed, violent potheads. And those humsexuals... well. We can't deport them 'cause they're from here (darnit anyway). But we sure as hell owe it to the citizenry to make sure they're denied the most fundamental of human rights... the right to freely love.

I'm sorry if this is a downer but I'm sick at heart for my country today. I fear where we're going and I feel so helpless... watching our common sense progress slip away.

I guess I should just be glad that G and her One True Love are already married... and no one... not even right wing governments... can take what they have away from them.

P.S. I knew where I wanted the Wellspring little world globe but to get the right angle was a challenge. To allow one of the deers to peek through and join the duck and chicken around the well. The source of water for us humans to help sustain us and the environment around us. In the middle of Kintsugi's city just fits so well.

Isn't it everlasting? It will always take over in the end in some way or the other. There will always be a wellspring of nature, or at least, we can only help make it that way. Save animals, plant more trees or tiny plants and take care of your surroundings. If we make it a lifestyle, we can help make the world a better place by loving the very existence it came with. When you love, you automatically learn to care. I dream of a day when all the tall skyscrapers will be slowly overrun by crawling ivy, beautiful flowers and birds just making nests in every nook. I dream of a wellspring of hope and love, always.

Excerpt from www.hkpm.org.hk/en/about/about-us:

The Hong Kong Palace Museum aspires to become one of the world’s leading cultural institutions committed to the study and appreciation of Chinese art and culture, while advancing dialogue among world civilisations through international partnerships. The Museum is a collaborative project between the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority and the Palace Museum, which is funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust with a donation of HK$3.5 billion for its establishment, as well as some of the annual exhibitions and education programmes in 2023-2031.

Embracing new curatorial approaches, the Museum offers a Hong Kong perspective and a global vision, presenting the finest objects from the Palace Museum and other important cultural institutions around the world. Through innovative research and travelling exhibitions, as well as educational, cultural, and professional exchange programmes, the Museum builds international partnerships and helps position Hong Kong as a hub for art and cultural exchanges between the Mainland China and the rest of the world. As a world-class institution, the Museum is, at heart, a cultural resource that belongs to the community of Hong Kong. And as a dynamic platform, it inspires community engagement, fosters dialogue and partnerships, and promotes creativity and interdisciplinary collaboration.

28th March 2018:

Graham committed a crime this morning by forgetting to buy me my breakfast cereal so this afternoon I nipped into town to see what the small supermarket had, not a lot! But, I did find some porridge which will keep me going until he or us both next go to the main supermarket.

On my way down I noticed this ribbon tied to a lamppost. I checked the others nearby and none of them had been decorated, so no idea why this one was. However I did like the light shining on it, so took a photo. To the amusement of the owner of the house nearest to it. They were in their front garden doing some planting!

It's SOOC other than my copyright.

I've caught up as well as Flickr has allowed me to. If I've missed anyone, I'll try and catch up with you tomorrow.

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)

John Kennedy's....

I really don’t know why it is that all of us are so committed to the sea, except I think it’s because in addition to the fact that the sea changes, and the light changes, and ships change, it’s because we all came from the sea. And it is an interesting biological fact that all of us have, in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and, therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea – whether it is to sail or to watch it – we are going back from whence we came.

The Art Nouveau is the style of natural harmony. Its committed goal is the establishment of the concord of the beauty and function without compromise. This is the last comprehensive European style enriching the European culture in the applied art, the fine art and construction design. The art of the Hungarian masters enriched the unique idiom of the Art Nouveau. Being a rich resource of the trasures of this style, the Hungarian Art Nouveau is a worthy competiror of the heritages of the French, German, Belgian and Aystrian Art Nouveau. The permanent exhibition consists of paintings, furniture, ornaments and interiors. It provides and authentic sight of the atmosphere of the civic life of the “peacetime” of Budapest for the visitors. A cafe of friendly atmosphere and shop of original silver jewelries and ceramic copies waith the visitors.

Opening hours 10-17, closed on Sunday.

The building, designed by Emil Vidor, reflects the influence of Belgian and French architecture. At the same time, the facade of the building also incorporates Hungarian patterns, like the Zsolnay ceramics patterns. Not long ago, the building was entirely renovated. Besides the private museum operating in the establishment and displaying furniture, porcelain, ironwork and paintings, visitors can sit into a lovely café, too.

In 1907 the periodical Hungarian Competition (Magyar Pályázat) presents a description of the building in the Architectonic Chronicle section (Építőművészeti Krónika) with the title: Mr. Bedő Béla's Honvéd Street Palace. The designer, Emil Vidor, took good care of the building’s interior space as well, in the spirit of Gesamtkunstwerk (all objects in the same style).

This powerful unity of the arts and crafts in 1903 was a groundbreaking event in Hungary. The Bedő House was built only six years after the Belgian Victor Horta made his first fully Art Nouveau house, and in the same time with the Scottish architect, Mackintosh's famous arts house.

Even a contemporary description mentions the planned use of specially designed murals, the richly applied stained and ground glass, and generally the special design furnishing of the whole building.

On PBS Masterpiece Theatre “Vienna Blood” prodution the location was used and the Dr’s apartment was within this fine building.
