Yilki Horses at Hurmetci

Cappadocia, Türkiye

These are semi-wild horses that are bred, but allowed to largely roam around. The breeders do a little conditioning to keep them together as a herd and do a few basic things like run, stop, go that way, etc. When these horses run, they drive up dust, which looks spectacular in the sunlight.

Horses are deep in the psyche of the Turkish people going back their Mongol days. They are revered and used as props for weddings and all kinds of advertisements. They are a major tourist attraction for both the locals and visitors.

**************************************

For the past couple of years, I have struggled with exactly what I am doing on Flickr. I travel a fair amount and I shoot a lot of photos. A tiny fraction of them might qualify as fine art or maybe worthy of printing. But most of these photos are of a documentary nature.

In the past, I have been publishing these photos on flickr, whether they were test shots from a specific lens or a camera, or photos from some place I visited. Then I thought I should perhaps not publish so many “run of the mill” photos, but instead, I should focus on a much smaller volume of images I would be of very high quality or photos that were really unusual or interesting.

But as a practical matter, I haven’t had the time sort through thousands of images and identify my “masterpieces”. I don’t even know if I have any! In the meantime, my photos are piling up. A lot of these photos, even if somewhat garden-variety, at least capture what I saw on my travels. There may be some value in publishing these, after all. If someone else is planning a trip to Turkiye or Tanzania or wherever, maybe they might find it interesting to browse through my images to get a feel for the place.

So I have decided to not hold back, but simply upload anything that looks halfway decent. By not publishing on Flickr, I have also distanced myself from my contacts. So by being back on Flickr, I get a chance to stay in touch with my contacts. So enjoy the images if you get a chance to see them, but please do NOT feel compelled to comment on any of these.

Yesterday morning - & the scene-changing snow squalls were yet to mount their assault on the fells.

Angle Tarn - for me - is a sensational location - a place you cannot simply walk past with half-hearted interest: a condition that seemed to affect a party of walkers passing by as I was taking this picture; their indifference to the obvious glory & reluctance to stop & stare leaving me somewhat baffled as to why some people actually take to the hills when they are so plainly detached from their surroundings.

Usually these are in worse condition but this has only few scratches

Size 10. Great condition. For sale

Wow this is absolutely stunning its in near mint condition! I'm really pleased with this one although the design is simple i really like it on the rear its all complete amazing find!

Skin

1. Choose a foundation according to the condition of your skin. Strive for the most natural result possible; heavy foundation combined with dark eye makeup can create an overdone look.

2. Apply blusher after eye makeup, so you can decide how much is needed.

1. When you want dramatic eye makeup, it is best to prime with eye makeup base.

2. Outline eyes with a soft eye liner pencil at the very base of the lashes. As an alternative, use liquid eye liner on the upper eyelid. Choose the colour of your eye liner to match your eyeshadow. Black eye liner matches all dark eyeshadows.

Eye Liner Pencil

3. Apply eyeshadow to the eyelid and brow bone starting from the outer corner of the eye. With an eyeshadow shading brush, use a lighter tone of eyeshadow to blend in.

Eyeshadow

4. Apply the same dark eyeshadow on the lower lid next to the eye liner. The easiest way to do this is to use a narrow eyeshadow brush.

5. Highlight the area below the eyebrows and the inner corners of the eyes with a lighter tone of pearly eyeshadow.

6. Apply black kohl pencil inside the lower rim above the lashes. This will intensify and deepen you gaze.

7. Add lots of mascara.

Lips

1. Lip makeup is simple: apply a light pink or nude lipstick or just lip gloss. There is no need for lip liner as dark eye makeup looks best against the backdrop of discreet, natural lip makeup.

2. Choose matching eye liner and eyeshadow. Black eye liner goes with all colours.

Writer's block is a condition, primarily associated with writing, in which an author loses the ability to produce new work. The condition ranges from difficulty in coming up with original ideas to more extreme examples in which some "blocked" writers have been unable to work for years, and some have even abandoned their careers.

Writer's block may have several causes. Some are creative problems that originate within an author's work itself. A writer may run out of inspiration, or be distracted by other events.

Other blocks, especially the more serious kind, may be produced by adverse circumstances in a writer's life or career: physical illness, depression, the end of a relationship, financial pressures, a sense of failure.

And of course a writer's block may be caused too by a deficiency of paper, pen or ... ink ;)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Schrijversblok (Engels: writer's block) is het tijdelijke onvermogen van een schrijver of componist om tot schrijven te komen.

Het (creatieve) schrijfproces verloopt deels onwillekeurig. De schrijver is gedeeltelijk afhankelijk van factoren die niet onder zijn controle vallen, wat soms leidt tot een (tijdelijk) verlies van inspiratie. Men spreekt over schrijversblok als het om een flinke tijdsspanne van niet kunnen schrijven gaat.

Uiteraard kan een schrijversblok ook veroorzaakt worden door het ontbreken van papier, pen of ... inkt ;)

Ken & I witnessed a great phenomena on our way home! The little patch of mown ground looked like leftover cotton, or maybe trash, maybe white pelican feathers? I got out to take a closer look and discovered it was a rare form of frost! Frost feathers, or frost flowers- something we have NEVER seen before, and apparently requiring JUST the right conditions! It was like cotton candy/candy floss, scattered along the side of the road!

German postcard in the series Die Leidenschaften des Rosa von Praumheim by Gebr. König Postkartenverlag, Köln (Cologne), no. 10/10. Photo: Michael Oblowitz. Divine and Tally Brown in Tally Brown, New York (Rosa von Praunheim, 1979).

Harris Glenn Milstead, better known by his stage name Divine (1945-1988), was an American actor, singer, and drag queen. He was closely associated with the independent filmmaker John Waters. Divine became the international icon of bad taste cinema.

Harris Glenn Milstead was born in 1945 in Baltimore, Maryland to a conservative middle-class family. His parents were Harris Bernard Milstead and Frances Milstead (née Vukovich). Their only child, his parents lavished almost anything that he wanted upon him, including food. He became overweight, a condition he lived with for the rest of his life. Divine preferred to use his middle name, Glenn, to distinguish himself from his father, and was referred to as such by his parents and friends. When he was 17, his parents sent him to a psychiatrist, where he first realised his sexual attraction to men as well as women, something then taboo in conventional American society. In 1963, he began attending the Marinella Beauty School, where he learned hair styling and, after completing his studies, gained employment at a couple of local salons, specialising in the creation of beehives and other upswept hairstyles.

Milstead developed an early interest in drag while working as a women's hairdresser. He eventually gave up his job and for a while was financially supported by his parents, who catered to his expensive taste in clothes and cars. They reluctantly paid the many bills that he ran up financing lavish parties where he would dress up in drag as his favourite celebrity, actress Elizabeth Taylor. By the mid-1960s he had embraced the city's countercultural scene. His friend from high school, John Waters gave him the name 'Divine' and the tagline of 'the most beautiful woman in the world, almost'. Waters later remarked that he had borrowed the name Divine from a character in Jean Genet's novel Our Lady of the Flowers (1943). Along with his friend David Lochary, Divine joined Waters' acting troupe, the Dreamlanders (which also included Mary Vivian Pearce and Mink Stole), and adopted female roles for their experimental short films. The first was Roman Candles (John Waters, 1966), which was shown 'triple projected' on three 8mm projectors running simultaneously but was never released commercially. Divine starred in drag as a smoking nun. Other short films were Eat Your Makeup (John Waters, 1968), and The Diane Linkletter Story (John Waters, 1969), filmed on Sunday afternoons. Again in drag, he took a lead role in Waters' first full-length film, Mondo Trasho (John Waters, 1969) Divine as an unnamed blonde woman who drives around town and runs over a hitchhiker. In their review of the film, the Los Angeles Free Press exclaimed that "The 300-pound (140 kg) sex-symbol Divine is undoubtedly some sort of discovery." In 1970, he travelled to San Francisco, California, a city which had a large gay subculture that attracted Divine, who was then embracing his homosexuality. Divine played the role of Lady Divine, the operator of an exhibit known as The Cavalcade of Perversion who turns to murdering visitors in Waters's film Multiple Maniacs. The film contained several controversial scenes, notably one which involved Lady Divine masturbating using a rosary while sitting inside a church. In another, Lady Divine kills her boyfriend and proceeds to eat his heart; in actuality, Divine bit into a cow's heart which had gone rotten from being left out on the set all day. At the end of the film, Lady Divine is raped by a giant lobster named Lobstora, an act that drives her into madness; she subsequently goes on a killing spree in Fell's Point before being shot down by the National Guard. Due to its controversial nature, Waters feared that the film would be banned and confiscated by the Maryland Censor Board, so avoided their jurisdiction by only screening it at non-commercial venues, namely rented church premises. Multiple Maniacs was the first of Waters's films to receive widespread attention, as did Divine; KSFX remarked that "Divine is incredible! Could start a whole new trend in films." Following his San Francisco sojourn, Divine returned to Baltimore and participated in Pink Flamingos (John Waters, 1972). Designed by Waters to be an exercise in poor taste, the film featured Divine as Babs Johnson, living in a pink trailer with her egg-eating grandmother, chicken-loving son and voyeuristic daughter. Babs claims to be 'the filthiest person alive' and she is forced to prove her right to the title from challengers, Connie (Mink Stole) and Raymond Marble (David Lochary). In one scene, the Marbles send Babs a turd in a box as a birthday present, and in order to enact this scene, Divine defecated into the box the night before. The final scene in the film proved particularly infamous, involving Babs eating fresh dog feces; Divine later told a reporter, "I followed that dog around for three hours just zooming in on its asshole," waiting for it to empty its bowels so that they could film the scene. The scene became one of the most notable moments of Divine's acting career, and he later complained of people thinking that "I run around doing it all the time". The film proved a hit on the U.S. midnight movie circuit, became a cult classic, and established Divine's fame within the American counterculture.

Divine returned to San Francisco, where he and Mink Stole starred in a number of small-budget plays at the Palace Theater as part of drag troupe The Cockettes, including Divine and Her Stimulating Studs, Divine Saves the World, Vice Palace, Journey to the Center of Uranus and The Heartbreak of Psoriasis. In 1974, Divine returned to Baltimore to film Waters's next motion picture, Female Trouble, in which he played the lead role. Divine was unable to appear in Waters's next feature, Desperate Living (John Waters, 1977), despite the fact that the role of Mole McHenry had been written for him. This was because he had returned to working in the theatre as the scheming prison matron Pauline in Tom Eyen's play Women Behind Bars and its sequel, The Neon Woman. While in London in 1978, Divine attended as the guest of honour at the fourth Alternative Miss World pageant, a 'mock' event founded by Andrew Logan in 1972 in which 'drag queens' – including men, women and children – competed for the prize. The event was filmed by director Richard Gayer, whose subsequent film, entitled Alternative Miss World, premiered at the Odeon in London's Leicester Square as well as featuring at the Cannes Film Festival, both events which were attended by Divine. Continuing his cinematic work, he starred in Polyester (John Waters, 1981) as Francine Fishpaw. Unlike earlier roles, Fishpaw was not a strong female but a meek and victimized woman who falls in love with her dream lover, Todd Tomorrow, played by Tab Hunter. The film was released in 'Odorama', accompanied by 'scratch 'n' sniff' cards for the audience to smell at key points in the film. In 1981, Divine embarked on a career in the disco industry by producing a number of Hi-NRG tracks, most of which were written by Bobby Orlando. He achieved international chart success with hits like 'You Think You're a Man', 'I'm So Beautiful', and 'Walk Like a Man', all of which were performed in drag. The next Divine film, Lust in the Dust (Paul Bartel, 1985), reunited him with Tab Hunter and was Divine's first film not directed by John Waters. Set in the Wild West during the nineteenth century, the film was a sex comedy that starred Divine as Rosie Velez, a promiscuous woman who works as a singer in saloons and competes for the love of Abel Wood (Tab Hunter) against another woman (Lainie Kazan). A parody of the Western Duel in the Sun (King Vidor, 1946), the film was a moderate critical success. Divine followed this production with a very different role, that of gay male gangster Hilly Blue in Trouble in Mind (Alan Rudolph, 1985), starring Kris Kristofferson and Keith Carradine. The script was written with Divine in mind. Although not a major character in the film, Divine had been eager to play the part because he wished to perform in more male roles and leave behind the stereotype of simply being a female impersonator. Reviews of the film were mixed, as were the evaluations of Divine's performance. The he reunited with John Waters for Hairspray (John Waters, 1988), which represented his breakthrough into mainstream cinema. Set in Baltimore during the 1960s, Hairspray revolved around self-proclaimed "pleasantly plump" teenager Tracy Turnblad (Ricki Lake) as she pursues stardom as a dancer on a local television show and rallies against racial segregation. As he had in Female Trouble, Divine took on two roles in the film, one of which was female and the other male. The first of these, Edna Turnblad, was Tracy's loving mother; the other was the racist head of the station that airs the Corny Collins show. Hairspray was only a moderate success upon its initial theatrical release, earning a modest gross of $8 million. However, it managed to attract a larger audience on home video in the early 1990s and became a cult classic. Divine's final film role was in the low-budget comedy horror Out of the Dark (Michael Schroeder, 1989), produced with the same crew as Lust in the Dust. Appearing in only one scene within the film, he played the character of Detective Langella, a foulmouthed policeman investigating the murders of a killer clown. Out of the Dark would be released the year after Divine's death. On 7 March 1988, three weeks after Hairspray was released nationwide, Divine was staying at the Regency Plaza Suites Hotel in Los Angeles. He was scheduled to film a guest appearance the following day as Uncle Otto on the Fox network's television series Married... with Children in the second season wrap-up episode. Shortly before midnight, he died in his sleep, at age 42, of an enlarged heart (according to Wikipdia or respiratory failure caused by sleep apnea (according to IMDb). It was probably a combination. Described by People magazine as the 'Drag Queen of the Century', Divine has remained a cult figure, particularly within the LGBT community, and has provided the inspiration for fictional characters, artworks, and songs. Various books and documentary films devoted to his life have also been produced, including Divine Trash (1998) and I Am Divine (2013), written by Divine's manager and friend Bernard Jay. Frances Milstead subsequently cowrote her own book about Divine, entitled My Son Divine (2001), with Kevin Heffernan and Steve Yeager. His mother's continued relationship with the gay community was later documented in a film Frances: A Mother Divine (Tim Dunn, Michael O'Quinn, 2010)

After spending 3 weekends looking for fungi I was giving up on finding one of these in a photogenic condition (normally eaten / trampled / past best / lost spots). I eventually managed to find this little specimen in Hoe Rough (NWT), Norfolk, UK. It had been eaten into by something and was losing some spots, so had to be a bit careful on positioning for the shot.

Monson RR Locomotive #3 and Edaville Railroad's Engine #11 double head on a special photo excursion, running the remaining trackage around the southern shore of Atwood Reservoir in South Carver, MA. This trackage was once part of the original 5.5 loop at Edaville, which was dramatically shortened in 2005. While the park's regular trains no longer come through here, the track is maintained in operating condition and is periodically visited by special trains like this one.

My grandpa has a half roll of pennies from 1957 that have never been in circulation. this is one of them, which he has given to me.

This particular Cob Van was in fantastic condition when it was spotted as an exhibit at the 2014 Crich Tramway Village, Classic Transport Gathering on Sunday the 24th of August 2014. This particular Commer was made back in 1967 but it was first registered in the UK, on the 11th of September 1989 so it was presumably imported into the UK round that time. This one does have its original engine according to the DVLA, a 0.9 Litre (0878cc) Straight-Four Imp engine which runs on petrol. When seen the van had appeared to have been lowered and had been given new wheels too, but combined really suited it, along with the period sign writing.

This image for the Condition series was taken from a drone. I love how it turned out, but he quality of the image produced by the GoPro was disappointing. Very low res :(

I was not expecting to see this parked outside a really posh Hotel. But anyways, iv'e been wanting to see a MK1 Punto for several years, and genuinely i have not seen one either parked or driving on the road since about 2014! And the amount that has decreased in the past years is shocking. They were soo common in the 00's and are now very rare, even the late ones, from 1999! I never have much luck with old Fiats, cause they have all disappeared for some reason? But i really got exited with this spot, as i do really like these, and its probably my favourite Fiat.

It was supplied by Grays Dealership in Warwick. Most of the older Fiats i spot are from this dealership, as its local, and still open today!

This Punto is an amazing survivor, and apart from missing nearside front indicator glass and some faded and peeled paint on the bonnet, it looks in great condition. MOT history looks in fair condition and having done 70k miles and around 5k a year, i think that its still got lots of life left.
