This is not wedding related, but my daughter is taking a very special trip for the next two weeks - Community Camp!
I am grateful to those staff members who are taking time out of their lives to bring a little joy to the world - virtually and otherwise. ♥

This is the fourth piece in the series I am calling Community. This work is in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and continues my experiences in the seniors photography workshop where we are looking at the communities in which we live. We are working towards a group project of some sort that we are collectively trying to define. It is very interesting for me as I have not worked collaboratively in my art very much.

I have been attending a (seniors) photography workshop where we are looking at the communities in which we live. We are working towards a group project of some sort that we are collectively trying to define. It is very interesting for me as I have not worked collaboratively in my art very much.
Part of the progress is journaling as we try to individually place ourselves to experience new aspects of our neighbourhoods with the goal to tell a collective story on some level. It is interesting for me as I have mostly focused on the E+Ps of image making and have not initiated work with a any specific objectives in mind.
In the end I will not tell you what I see in this, what it means, that is for you to contribute. I will tell you that It does address many aspects of community I see around me in 2020 both good and bad.

Come sit with me and we’ll not be alone.
We’ll chill by the pool and forget about the phone.

Recently, I have done a documentary on Ramnami Samaj (community) in the Indian state of Chhattisgarh. It is a Hindu sect founded by Parasuram, a man from low caste untouchable Hindu community, in the 1890s that worshiped the Lord Ram. To prove their love and devotion to Lord Ram, they have tattooed the word “Ram” on their whole body and wear clothes with “Ram” written all over them. Even the walls of house have “Ram Ram” scribbled on them. This community is very liberal; they don’t discriminate between castes and respect all genders equally. They spend their entire day spiritually- by praying and chanting Ram bhajan (devotional songs). With only a handful of people left in this community, we can only wish for them to never let go of their cultural identity and for the coming generation to pursue it with fervor.
Let's all go to Ezra's house and have our laundry washed!
A charming scene but does look like a lot of work. Remember when your Mom or grandparents got their first dryer!
Having discovered a large, densely populated area of Canada Anemone much closer to home, I've made several visits while they are at peak condition. A chaos of blossoms abound.
Meant as a documentary shot to establish density and habitat.
Class 43 locomotive No. 43192 arrives at Yatton station with the late-running 2U12, the 06:40 Penzance to Cardiff Central service on Saturday 30th October 2021. Sister locomotive No. 43122 was at the rear.
On this visit to Yatton I had the pleasure of the company of Stuart Warr and Invader1009, who had come here specifically to photograph this train.
Since moving to Cornwall, I’ve swam at least once a week in rain , hail or shine ! The metal and physical health benefits have really changed my life …it’s an amazing community and I’ve made so many friends, I really wanted to show the joy of sea swimming for one of my uni projects in this image.

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
California Sea lions form large groups, called a colony when out of the water. These colonies are quite noisy and it seem animals are always scuffling about.
Arrivo ai ruderi del Sepolcro dei Monaci. Sullo sfondo si erge, sul monte Pirchiriano, l'Abbazia di San Michele. Via Crucis alla Sacra di San Michele. Sant'Ambrogio di Torino, Val di Susa. Piemonte, Italia.
Il Sepolcro dei Monaci della Sacra di San Michele consta dei resti di un antico tempietto. È così chiamato perché ritenuto una cappella cimiteriale, ma appare più realistica oggi l’ipotesi che vede in questa cappella, a forma ottagonale, la riproduzione del Santo Sepolcro, quasi un anticipo ai pellegrini del Sepolcro di Gerusalemme. La costruzione, prettamente cristiana, risale al secolo X. Questa chiesa, ancora intatta nel 1621 e dedicata a Santo Stefano, cominciò a rovinare nel 1661, fino a diventare molto presto un rudere.

This small rural community has a rather large old Church from around the year 1200, so as many other places, I guess this have been a larger community many years ago. I wonder about the silos, because under normal conditions, it is not allowed to build something tall or ugly close to a church, those silos are both tall and ugly, so I guess there must have been corruption involved here ! I like to do both documentations and historic photography, so things like this, I think is important for the future to be documented.
