More Eiders.
As we were leaving Cape Spear we noticed the eiders seemed close to shore. So Once again despite the high gusts of wind - we eased our way down towards where we thought they might be. A small group seemed calm and approachable but as we came further down a larger group which were just behind the rocks saw us and blasted out of the water in seconds. .
They are hunted and as a consequence are very skittish
You can frequently see people from all over the world turning around on their heels on the genitals of the bull mosaic in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, as they say that it brings good luck to do so.
As a consequence this piece of mosaic needs to be replaced quite often.

The Russian Civil War was not going well for the White Army in 1920. After the failure of General Anton Denikin of the Armed Forces of South Russia to link up with the forces of Aleksandr Kolchak at Tsaritsyn, the Red Army was able to push them back. Denikin believed that it would be best to capture Moscow, but this operation would fail. Soon Kolchak would be captured and executed by the Communists in Siberia. Infighting between the White Army leadership would ensue, especially between Denikin and General Pyotr Wrangel. Wrangel was critical of Denikin's push to capture Moscow in 1919 rather than Tsaritsyn. Denikin would remove Wrangel from his command and Wrangel would depart for exile to Constantinople in February of 1920.
In a twist of fate, Denikin would be forced to resign by a military committee and Wrangel would be asked to be the new Commander in Cheif of the White Army in the Crimea. He would accept this post in April and rename it the Russian Army, to show the Western powers that it was the true Russian army, unlike the Bolshevik Reds. He would introduce reforms to the small territory he ruled and build relations with the short-lived independent states of Georgia and Ukraine. In June he would once again engage the Bolsheviks in the fight over Northern Taurida in Southern Ukraine. The Whites would initially see some success as Wrangel was a competent general, however they were vastly outnumbered as the White army numbered 38,000 men, compared to the Bolsheviks 133,100 men.
The White Army after this defeat had only control of the Crimean Peninsula. This would not last as the Bolsheviks would breach the last defensive line at Perekop. Wrangel would have no choice but to order an evacuation of White Army soldiers and their families. In total 145,693 people would be evacuated, and many would settle in Serbia. Wrangel himself would move to Belgium where he died under mysterious circumstances in 1928 with many of his family members believing he was assassinated.
After reading the book "Always with Honor" by Pyotr Wrangel himself, I wanted to create a scene related to the Russian Civil War. This is a conflict that I had always found interesting given the consequences it would have for the world we live in today. I will probably do more builds and scenes related to this conflict as there were so many interesting personalities and factions involved.

“In nature there are neither rewards nor punishments; there are consequences.”

Spilled water will not return
This saying originates in the Japanese tradition and is known as “覆水盆に返らず” (fukusui bon ni kaerazu). The story traditionally told recounts a man who, after being abandoned by his wife during hard times, later achieves success and prestige. When the woman returns asking to be taken back, he pours water from a bowl and tells her that she may return only if she can put the water back exactly as it was before. The gesture makes the meaning of the proverb clear: what has been done cannot be undone, and the past cannot be reassembled. In Japanese thought this saying is not a sentence of condemnation, but a reminder of responsibility and awareness, because every action carries irreversible consequences.
I chose to translate this saying into English because today its meaning has become universal and understandable beyond its original cultural boundaries, while preserving intact the symbolic core of the irreversibility of time and actions.
For the creation of this image I use artificial intelligence as a technical and operational tool, not as a substitute for art. Technology is a means that bends to my will in order to translate a clear and intentional idea into visual form. Artificial intelligence is guided by my thought and my artistic vision and does not replace pure art in any way, which remains the foundation of my work.
“100% tourist, 0% time space continuum integrity”
“After being fused with the Kanohi Olmak, Vezon went on his many (unintentional) interdimensional adventures. On these trips, he has the uncontrollable urge to hoard everything that looks remotely valuable, with all of the consequences of such actions. This is what led to him getting his hands on the story bible, which he now uses to complete his collection of non-cannon masks.”
This a bit of a joke build that I did based on some derailed conversations with friends. After reading the serials, I always jokingly imagined Vezon to be a Deadpool like character, a loose cannon with some comedy aspects (preferably voiced by Jack Black).
A consequence of the mass–energy equivalence is that if a body is stationary, it still has some internal or intrinsic energy, called its rest energy, corresponding to its rest mass. When the body is in motion, its total energy is greater than its rest energy, and, equivalently, its total mass (also called relativistic mass in this context) is greater than its rest mass. This rest mass is also called the intrinsic or invariant mass because it remains the same regardless of this motion, even for the extreme speeds or gravity considered in special and general relativity...(Wikipedia)
I think that what that all means is when you ride a motorcycle, go real fast...

Difficult to contemplate, isn’t ?
« A photographic investigation Monsanto »by Mathieu Asselin..
This exhibition was close to my heart and I was not disappointed. This exhibition is of a shocking reality and it does not leave anybody indifferent, particularly these captures of fœtal deformities, the result of agent orange of Monsanto…
These captures are immense…when you enter into the exhibition, you can’t see them ! It’s terrible to be faced with such a past …which is always present…
The author has seen the horror and, as the two central displays in his Arles exhibition show, the horror has a face – that of Agent Orange-affected infants preserved in glass containers for science at Tû Dû Obstetrics Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Asselin photographed them as well as living victims of Operation Hades, the original name for the US military operation that sprayed rural areas with Agent Orange during the war – Monsanto was one of the companies that produced the chemical, which was officially used as a defoliant. The most common caption reads: “Multiple genetics disorders and malformations”.
Monsanto's dozens of Superfund sites (large contaminated sites of high priority for the US Environmental Protection Agency) across the United States alone are affecting hundreds of communities and their environment with terrifying health and ecological consequences. Monsanto maintains strong ties with the us-government, and is a bedfellow with many other economical and political power houses around the world. The company has been accused of misinformation campaigns and the persecution of institutions and individuals that dare to disclose their actions. Monsanto is spreading new technologies and products, while scientists, ecological institutions and human rights organizations are putting out alerts for issues like public health, food safety and ecological sustainability issues. Visiting its past and presents, this project aims to picture what Monsanto’s near future could look like.
Berlin boasts two zoological gardens, a consequence of decades of political and administrative division of the city. The older one, called Zoo Berlin, founded in 1844, is situated in what is now called the "City West". It is the most species-rich zoo worldwide. The other one, called Tierpark Berlin ("Animal Park"), was established on the long abandoned premises of Friedrichsfelde Manor Park in the eastern borough of Lichtenberg, in 1954. Covering 160 ha, it is the largest landcape zoo in Europe.
Rund 15 Prozent der Erdoberfläche werden von Savannen bedeckt. Damit gehören sie zu den größten und wichtigsten Lebensräumen des Planeten. Seit dem 26. Mai 2023 wird Besucher*innen im Tierpark Berlin ein Einblick in diese faszinierende Landschaft gewährt und sie können mehr über die unterschiedlichen Bewohner der ostafrikanischen Savanne und ihren natürlichen Lebensraum erfahren.
Ein wahrer Höhepunkt der neuen Tierpark-Savanne ist der 120 Meter lange Giraffenpfad: Hier werden die Gäste den bis zu fünf Meter hohen Grazien der Savanne zukünftig auf Augenhöhe begegnen können – wer sich traut, bahnt sich den Weg durch den Wald bis zu den Aussichtsplattformen über eine abenteuerliche Hängebrücke. Der Tierpark Berlin erreicht mit der Eröffnung der Afrikanischen Savannenlandschaft ein neues Etappenziel auf seinem Weg zu einem Zoo der Zukunft. Seit knapp neun Jahren wird der 1955 gegründete und 160 Hektar große Tierpark Berlin zu einem naturnahen Geozoo umgebaut. Um einen Einblick in den Lebensraum der einzelnen Tierarten und deren Interaktionen, Besonderheiten und Problematiken zu ermöglichen, werden die Tiere im Tierpark größtenteils nach geografischen Gesichtspunkten zu sehen sein.

Around 15 per cent of the earth's surface is covered by savannahs. This makes them one of the largest and most important habitats on the planet. Since 26 May 2023, visitors to Tierpark Berlin have been given an insight into this fascinating landscape and can learn more about the different inhabitants of the East African savannah and their natural habitat.
A true highlight of the new zoo savannah is the 120-metre-long giraffe trail: here, guests will be able to meet the up to five-metre-high graces of the savannah at eye level in future - those who dare will make their way through the forest to the viewing platforms via an adventurous suspension bridge. With the opening of the African Savannah Landscape, Tierpark Berlin has reached a new milestone on its way to becoming a zoo of the future. For almost nine years, the 160-hectare Tierpark Berlin, which was founded in 1955, has been transformed into a near-natural geozoo. In order to provide an insight into the habitat of the individual animal species and their interactions, peculiarities and problems, the animals in the zoo will largely be seen according to geographical aspects.
Saint-Jacques Tower, the Tour Saint-Jacques, is a monument located in the IVe arrondissement of Paris, France. This 52 metres (171 ft) Flamboyant Gothic tower is all that remains of the former 16th century Church of Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie ("Saint James of the butchery") which was leveled shortly after the French Revolution.

Sooner or later, the bill comes due originated in the United States between the late nineteenth century and the early decades of the twentieth century within everyday commercial and accounting language. The expression is linked to informal credit practices in shops, general stores, and small businesses, where customers could buy “on account” and pay later. In this context, the phrase literally meant that, even if payment could be postponed, the debt would eventually have to be settled. Over time, the expression shifted into figurative use and entered journalistic, political, and social language, taking on a moral and existential meaning: every action, choice, or behavior generates inevitable consequences, leading sooner or later to a moment of reckoning. This proverb is often used to emphasize individual and collective responsibility: no one can avoid the effects of what they do forever.
I create these images using artificial intelligence not to replace photography, nor to question its artistic value, which remains central and untouchable in my practice, but to use a different tool in response to specific expressive needs in the present.
A reminder of war consequences.

"The town was completely destroyed during the Battle of the Ebro (25 July–16 November 1938) and although the lower part of the town was rebuilt, the upper part, known as Poble Vell (Old Town), including the old church on the hill, has been kept as a reminder.
The town has one of the five information centres run by COMEBE, a public consortium, including the Generalitat de Catalunya, that was founded in 2001 to recover the historical memory of the areas in which the 115-day-long Battle of the Ebro, the longest, bloodiest and most decisive battle of the Spanish Civil War, took place. The Centre d'interpretació de la batalla de l'Ebre (Battle of the Ebro Information Centre) has marked paths on a circuit around the area."

Auf einer Fläche von 60.000 m² hat nun die einzigartige Tierwelt des Himalaya Einzug gehalten. Dabei begegnen den Bergsteiger*innen nicht nur bekannte Gebirgsbewohner wie Rote Pandas, Schneeleoparden und Bartgeier, sondern auch weniger bekannte Arten wie Goldtakin, Goral, Manul und Satyrtragopan. Nach einer Bauzeit von gut einem Jahr verwandelte sich der 60 Meter hohe Trümmerberg in eine asiatische Gebirgslandschaft mit zahlreichen neuen Aussichtpunkten. Rund 100 Individuen aus 22 verschiedenen – größtenteils in der Natur bedrohten - Tierarten haben in Berlins Hochgebirge ihr neues Zuhause gefunden. (Tierpark Berlin)

The unique animal world of the Himalayas has now found its way into an area of 60,000 m². Climbers will not only encounter well-known mountain dwellers such as red pandas, snow leopards and bearded vultures, but also lesser-known species such as takin, goral, Pallas'scat and satyr tragopan. After a construction period of just over a year, the 60-metre-high mountain of rubble was transformed into an Asian mountain landscape with numerous new vantage points. Around 100 individuals from 22 different animal species - most of them endangered in the wild - have found their new home in Berlin's high mountains. (Source: Tierpark Berlin)

I am buried in homework and projects.
On the bright side, it was so nice out today! :)
Hope you are all well<3
Recently, I posted an image taken by my wife, Jenny.
Some of you were kind enough to say nice things about her photography. Thank you.
But there have been consequences.
I now have a new Artistic Director (note the capital letters!).
Jen has taken the role on (uninvited) for a mere 50% of any earnings (mind you, 50% of nowt is still nowt).
Unfortunately, whenever we're out together, she now feels qualified to point out "Amazing Images" (note the capital letters) and insist that I shoot several versions. (Evidently, because I spend so much time "mucking about" with my shots I have to take several versions to be sure of getting an acceptable one).
This image is the result of this type of collaboration. The conversation went like this;
J - "Have you seen that line of trees over there?"
D (without looking) - "What trees?"
J - "THOSE trees. The ones at the edge of the field."
D (giving them a cursory lance) - "What about them?"
J - "Don't you think that would make an 'Amazing Image'"
D - "Nope"
J - "Why not?"
D - "Just doesn't inspire me at all. I can't see a photo there"
A few minutes silence .....................
J - "A decent photographer would make something of them."
D - "Well, maybe I'm not a decent photographer"
J - "Evidently not"
More silence during which I sneak another look.
D (Sighing) - "OK. Maybe just the one. Just to please you,................................... sweetheart"
Here it is then.
"Things and actions are what they are, and the consequences of them will be what they will be: why, then, should we desire to be deceived?"

The human world runs on a whole set of tacit agreements that things are not what they are.
Like this myth of solidity. Nothing is solid. We're all just collections of molecules in motion.
Oh, sure, some of those molecules are packed really tightly. Like the ones in steel. And yes, as per those tacit agreements, we perceive one another... and everything around us... as a disparate collection of unique individuals.
We're not. We're all just clumps of molecules, floating around in a vast soupy stew, shedding bits of ourselves along the way... ingesting bits of others... setting off various chemical reactions and swimming in the consequences.
Or... as the case may be... drowning in them. Suffocating... as the lumps break down and the broth becomes, day by day, more and more homogenous.
The Fens, also known as the Fenlands, are a coastal plain in eastern England. This natural marshy region supported a rich ecology and numerous species, as well as absorbing storms. Most of the fens were drained several centuries ago, resulting in a flat, dry, low-lying agricultural region supported by a system of drainage channels and man-made rivers (dykes and drains) and automated pumping stations. There have been unintended consequences to this reclamation, as the land level has continued to sink and the dykes must be built higher to protect it from flooding.
