Europe, The Netherlands, Rotterdam Zuid, Koningshaven, Koniginnebrug, Rhineship Conformity (slightly cut from all sides)
The Koninginnebrug, a bridge of the 'bascule' type (1929, A.H. Rood) is opened to let a battered rhine ship through. In the BG are the Noordereiland and the Willemsbrug (1981, C. Veerling/Gemeentewerken).
This is number 71 of Six word stories and 302 of Rotterdam Harbour & Industry.
The monastery was founded in Vydubychi in 1070 by Prince Vsevolod Yaroslavich in conformity with his vow to build a temple in case of his recovery from the wounds inflicted during hunting.
In 1070-1088 on the slopes above the Dnipro River, a six-pier five-domed St. Michael’s Church with three naves was erected. In the 15th or 16th century the temple collapsed because of flood. After the restoration in 1766-1769 the church acquired a look of a single-domed baroque structure. Partially preserved in it were graffiti, frescoes, and mosaics of the 11th century – fragments of the composition Doomsday and ornamental patterns.
Here at the turn of the 18th century Colonel M.Miklashevsky from Starodubsk erected a stone five-domed St. George’s Cathedral and the Refectory Church of the Saviour (1686-1701), and Hetman D.Apostol – the belfry (1727-1733) designed in Ukrainian Baroque.
Монастир був заснований у Видубичах у 1070 році князем Всеволодом Ярославичем відповідно до його обітниці збудувати храм у разі одужання від ран, завданих під час полювання.
У 1070-1088 роках на схилах над Дніпром було зведено шестистовпну п'ятикупольну Михайлівську церкву з трьома нефами. У XV або XVI столітті храм обвалився через повінь. Після реставрації в 1766-1769 роках церква набула вигляду однокупольної барокової споруди. Частково в ній збереглися графіті, фрески та мозаїки XI століття – фрагменти композиції «Страшний суд» та орнаментальні візерунки.
Тут на зламі XVIII століть полковник М. Миклашевський зі Стародубська звів кам'яний п'ятиглавий собор Святого Юра та Трапезну церкву Спаса (1686-1701), а гетьман Д. Апостол – дзвіницю (1727-1733), виконану в стилі українського бароко.

Flores de Santa Gemita - 12-12-2021
Here is a re-edit of a photo taken back in December of 2016. Since then, the UP 1963 has been repainted into Union Pacific's "Armour Yellow" paint scheme, just as most of their other fallen flags have. In this photo, the UP LSB50 (now the LSB54) is passing over the Embarras River at Villa Grove. They are departing north to do work at several industries and interchanges between here and Yard Center in Chicago.

"White Lightning" by Chris Lagesten:
In my painting "White Lightning" you will see the image of Bridge 13 at night. A bright white lightning bolt in the form of a Graffiti arrow jumps across the sky bringing energy and uneasiness to the Rose City. The sky is made up of a geometric cube pattern that symbolizes both conformity and sharp disturbance at the same time. The shadow of the bridge drips into a multicolor canal. The multitude of colors represent a bright and energetic creative class searching for somewhere to flourish and fighting against the darkness to spread positivity.
*Working Towards a Better World
Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Livingston_Seagull
Jonathan Livingston Seagull, written by Richard Bach, is a fable in novella form about a seagull learning about life and flight, and a homily about self-perfection. It was first published in 1970 as "Jonathan Livingston Seagull — a story." By the end of 1972, over a million copies were in print, Reader's Digest had published a condensed version, and the book had reached the top of the New York Times Best Seller list, where it remained for 38 weeks. In 1972 and 1973, the book topped the Publishers Weekly list of bestselling novels in the United States. In 2014 the book was reissued as Jonathan Livingston Seagull: The Complete Edition, which added a 17-page fourth part to the story.
Plot
The book tells the story of Jonathan Livingston Seagull, a seagull who is bored with daily squabbles over food. Seized by a passion for flight, he pushes himself, learning everything he can about flying, until finally his unwillingness to conform results in his expulsion. An outcast, he continues to learn, becoming increasingly pleased with his abilities as he leads a peaceful and happy life.
One day, Jonathan is met by two gulls who take him to a "higher plane of existence" in which there is no heaven but a better world found through perfection of knowledge. There he meets other gulls who love to fly. He discovers that his sheer tenacity and desire to learn make him "pretty well a one-in-a-million bird." In this new place, Jonathan befriends the wisest gull, Chiang, who takes him beyond his previous learning, teaching him how to move instantaneously to anywhere else in the Universe. The secret, Chiang says, is to "begin by knowing that you have already arrived." Not satisfied with his new life, Jonathan returns to Earth to find others like him, to bring them his learning and to spread his love for flight. His mission is successful, gathering around him others who have been outlawed for not conforming. Ultimately, the very first of his students, Fletcher Lynd Seagull, becomes a teacher in his own right, and Jonathan leaves to teach other flocks.
Part one
Part One of the book finds young Jonathan Livingston frustrated with the meaningless materialism, conformity, and limitation of the seagull life. He is seized with a passion for flight of all kinds, and his soul soars as he experiments with exhilarating challenges of daring aerial feats. Eventually, his lack of conformity to the limited seagull life leads him into conflict with his flock, and they turn their backs on him, casting him out of their society and exiling him. Not deterred by this, Jonathan continues his efforts to reach higher and higher flight goals, finding he is often successful but eventually he can fly no higher. He is then met by two radiant, loving seagulls who explain to him that he has learned much, and that they are there now to teach him more.
Part two
Jonathan transcends into a society where all the gulls enjoy flying. He is only capable of this after practicing hard alone for a long time and the first learning process of linking the highly experienced teacher and the diligent student is raised into almost sacred levels. They, regardless of the all immense difference, are sharing something of great importance that can bind them together: "You've got to understand that a seagull is an unlimited idea of freedom, an image of the Great Gull." He realizes that you have to be true to yourself: "You have the freedom to be yourself, your true self, here and now, and nothing can stand in your way."
Part three
In the third part of the book are the last words of Jonathan's teacher: "Keep working on love." Through his teachings, Jonathan understands that the spirit cannot be really free without the ability to forgive, and that the way to progress leads—for him, at least—through becoming a teacher, not just through working hard as a student. Jonathan returns to the Breakfast Flock to share his newly discovered ideals and the recent tremendous experience, ready for the difficult fight against the current rules of that society. The ability to forgive seems to be a mandatory "passing condition."
"Do you want to fly so much that you will forgive the Flock, and learn, and go back to them one day and work to help them know?" Jonathan asks his first student, Fletcher Lynd Seagull, before getting into any further talks. The idea that the stronger can reach more by leaving the weaker friends behind seems totally rejected.
Hence, love, deserved respect, and forgiveness all seem to be equally important to the freedom from the pressure to obey the rules just because they are commonly accepted.
Part four
In 2013 Richard Bach took up a non-published fourth part of the book which he had written contemporaneously with the original. He edited and polished it and then sent the result to a publisher. Bach reported that it was a near-death experience which had occurred in relation to a nearly fatal plane crash in August 2012, that had inspired him to finish the fourth part of his novella.[1] In February 2014, the 138-page Bach work Illusions II was published as a booklet by Kindle Direct Publishing. It also contains allusions to and insights regarding the same near-death experience. In October 2014, Jonathan Livingston Seagull: The Complete Edition, was reissued and includes part four of the story.

From a visit to the Murrumbateman Field Days, held over the weekend of 19 and 20 October each year for the past 35 years. The field days bring together over 400 exhibitors displaying the latest machinery, equipment and services to successfully run a small farm, including demonstrations of horsemanship, shearing and chainsaw art. Don't ask me what striped stockings have to do with it.

Testing out the new Aaron 4.0 head by Lelutka by looking all exhausted and stuff. This head has a nose shape that removes the need of nose deformers so check it out if you don't like standard faces. I made my own shape and added DerDieb's face tattoos to give me that complete 'week two, and the robots are fighting back' vibe.

Words such as "autism" and "narcissism" are in such frequent and unspecific use these days that I am getting suspicious. These are labels (actually, umbrella terms with a whole range of meanings underneath) and my suspicion is that they are a device not to engage with a controversial substance matter. Conformity is not a virtue in a democratic society. Sony A7iii, 2x teleconverter, Helios 44M-7.
Necessity is blind until it becomes conscious. Freedom is the consciousness of necessity.

May we think of freedom, not as the right to do as we please but as the opportunity to do what is right.

No one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.

Back in the 1990's I used to work for the Kodak Retail Group, processing film, selling film and cameras. I remember experimenting with processed slide film through the print machine creating a 'negative' print which always looked very alien with amazingly unnatural and vibrant colours.
So when I pressed the wrong adjustment button in the filter menu on Photoshop on this image I was sent back in time to those experimental moments in the film era!
I didn't originally intend to post this when it was created, but then I thought this is all part of my creative photographic journey!
And i'm not even going to pretend that the image here is 'amazing' or the process is even original, but I like the blue tones - reminds me of an old painting that's been in a sun filled room for too many years.
