The traffic light is green for pedestrians but there is no one crossing the road. People are queuing for their turn to shop for groceries. I notice the tiredness in the eyes, the resignation as if there was no tomorrow. Who reads, who consults smartphones and who silently observes in a vacuum. Many electronic eyes monitor and a megaphone ready to speak. The traffic light is always green and I hope it is hopeful for everyone.

En la playa de la Zurriola (San Sebastian) se mantiene la distancia social de 2m. a la hora de tomar el sol, por seguridad frente al covid-19
Douter de l'efficacité d'un masque face à un virus à visée respiratoire, c'est discuter de l'utilité d'un parachute dans l'exercice de la chute libre.
Well! Given the current conditions you're very likely to see many more pictures of 'My Tree'. Hopefully you'll like them but in the meantime keep safe and keep healthy.

To believe on kismet, karma,fate, god's will or devil's revenge allow to live a somnambulic life. Science, scepticism, principle of scientific falsification, public control of scientific findings, democratic separation of powers are relevant to give next generations a chance to live in dignity.
Sorry friends, but I suffered from a damned Covid19 infection, although I had a complete series of vaccinations. Now I'm better, but not really well! Will take its time to recover.
Desolation is the framework for human ignorance that is rampant even in pandemic times.
The human being is the real pandemic ?!

I ended up inadvertently taking a wee photographic tribute to COVID19 frontline workers last night. I was shooting the Belfast City Hall, which was lit up blue for the weekly tribute to National Health Service workers, which takes place every Thursday night during the epidemic, when I had to get out of the way as two buses came down Donegall Place behind me. But I reset quickly and they turned at the perfect moment!
The point being NHS workers are obviously frontline staff, but so are bus drivers, many of whom have died around the word, and so are a lot of council staff, especially the binmen/refuse collectors.
The focal point of Belfast's central business district, its 1898-1906 City Hall with its famous copper dome effectively divides the city's main retail and business districts. It was during this period, at the height of Belfast's industrial heyday, that the city briefly overtook Dublin as Ireland's most populous.
The architect was Sir Alfred Brumwell Thomas. The city hall in Durban, South Africa, is virtually identical.

J'ai tellement aimé cette ville (durement touchée) et tellement aimé ce film:
A Washington State slogan that's packed with a punch. Stay safe all, and help keep others safe while you're at it!
“Wilting
over a couple of days
feels like an extended
shriveling transplant,
grafted into asphyxia,
rooted through cold light.
Someone whistles
body and soul
in the corridor.
Splayed specimen
belly down,
looking for a hole
to slip through
in the effulgent glare
the ice gives off.
Emanating from
liquid darkness
below someplace,
her touch
as remembered
waits.”
