hassanane: You didn't actually eat all that, did you?
something_to_declare: @hassanane my instagram is a judgment free zone FYI
hassanane: Judging is if you had two or three. If you had all of that, then that's bloody amazing.
Here are images from my recent visit to the Cambo (www.cambo.com) factory in the Netherlands while I was visiting Amsterdam. Rene Rook of Cambo was nice enough to guide me through the entire production process as well as show me some vintage cameras from the companies history and show me their current product line (which was just recently updated at Photokina 2012)
for a full review of the products and a discussion of the images you see here (especially the vintage products) you can read the full article on my website www.brianhirschfeldphotography.com
You can also read my real world review of this camera here: brianhirschfeldphotography.com/2013/08/30/stitching-with-...
More comparisons as my collection grows. Thought this may help others who want to see how Mikahalia looks next to others in her size range. :)
Please pardon Phoebe (far right) -- her head is getting a face-up. :)
The current images I am showing now here on Flickr, are Collaboration's with my son A.J. He is 8 years old. We make all the images in the camera first, then I work on them in photoshop to find the best parts from several images to make the finale composition. All the images start from motion and movement of toys and other objects that my son has. A.J. is very unique. He has a way of helping me to see things in people and in the surroundings of my life in a newer way then ever. He inspires me to work harder in understanding my life in art, photography, people, spiritual things, and so much more...
I believe A.J. came in to my life to change every thing I understand about life. AJ was born Dec. 17, 1998 at 36 weeks gestation. He weighed 3.7lbs. He is a kid of special needs. He was born with broken femurs although he was born by cesarean. He has scoliosis of the back. His legs do not move and his right arm is flacid, the left arm has limited range of motion. He eats by a "G" tube in his tummy and can't swallow. He has a tracheotomy in his neck to breath through SIMV, a ventilation device to assist with his breathing. He’s extremely nearsighted and what he truly sees we just don’t really know. Most would describe A.J as a quadriplegic. He cannot speak. AJ is a wonderful inspiration to my wife and family and we are very honored and thankful to be his parents.
OK now you are asking your self or me how a kid like A.J. Collaborates with me. he likes light and lights that move. toys that fly over his bed. he has a large mobil near his bed that we have hung toys on all his life. one day many years a go I was doing my normal daddy thing doing a photo of him and I found that the toys looked cool in the photo. I began to experiment on how to have more fun looking at this toy thing that happened. I wonted to controll it more but I did one thing I made a rule that he must be a part of it as much as I could help him to be. it was his stuff that cot my eye. now that mobil of his is run by a switch that he pushes on or off. it dose not seem like much to some but it is his part and all he can do. so I don't know which way it might turn. the shutter speeds are long and some times I move the camera or hold it still. A.J. adds all the magic to it and he is the true energy. yes I did try many shots that he was not part of but when I have done this it is just not as wow as when he and I work as a team. it is a fun way to play with him and be a bigger part of his life. I show him the photos in the back of the camera after we do a few, or from a lap top. he just looks. I don't know if he likes them or not but I do. I get a lot of joy from working with him like this. it is one of the only things I feel that I can truely look in to his secret world by. we have ben doing this for several years now. and I have built a large collection of cool images to share with you doing this part is a new thing for use to do. I hope you have fun looking at the images we have here. we have only printed a few on paper so far. this art is the first of extreme abstract art I have realy began to enjoy.

SELF-PORTRAITR: AN INTERACTIVE EXHIBITION CURATING THE FLICKR.COM
COMMUNITY
June 30 through August 25, 2006
Pace/MacGill Gallery and the School of Visual Arts’ graduate photography department are pleased to present an interactive exhibition of self-portraits drawn from Flickr.com, the online digital photo-sharing network. Flickr’s user base consists of over one million members who share images and image-related information. Two leading forces in the New York art world—-a major photography gallery and a top art school—-have joined together to observe this online conversation of image making.
The mining and showcasing of this material strives to engage and expand a rapidly growing virtual arts community. The exhibition will be accessible to both viewers and contributors alike via the Pace/MacGill website www.pacemacgill.com. Pace/MacGill’s gallery space will house ten computers on which visitors can peruse the pictures gathered from numerous global photographers as they would online. A few monitors will display slideshows of images specifically collected via the gallery website.
The exhibition will not only rely on the Flickr community for content, but will also depend upon the activity of the site’s users for the organization and editing of what is anticipated to be thousands of images from the age-old genre of self-portraiture. Whether the image is taken by a professional photographer overseas or by an amateur experimenting with a camera phone in New York City, each image posted on Flickr and “tagged” as a self-portrait will automatically be filtered and directed into the exhibition.
The Pace/MacGill Flickr interface, created by SVA’s Jeremy Chien and Stephen Jablonsky and programmed by Kelvin Luck, allows users to vote for favorites, track the most viewed image, and create categories. Sorting options or subcategories (self portrait “with mirror” or at “beach,” for example) within the virtual exhibition will enable further definition and refinement.
The work in the exhibition will perpetually expand with the proliferation of users until the popularity of each category aids in its editing. As more images are collected and more users are interacting with the site to make selections, the work will become more discerning and interesting. One can choose the role they wish to assume: curator, artist, etcetera. With every click of the mouse, viewers become participants; the interactive community defines the exhibition. The hope is that the final result will be a 50 print exhibition of images chosen by the community.
The School of Visual Arts is widely recognized as one of the finest art schools in the country for its innovative and experimental program philosophies, its participation in the cultural life of New York City, and its unparalleled faculty comprised of professional artists. The MFA Photography, Video and Related Media department has been a leader in the implementation of photography in the digital world. The exhibition has been assembled by Pace/MacGill Gallery, Jeremy Chien, and Stephen Jablonsky. Chien and Jablonsky are both alumni and faculty members at the School of Visual Arts’ MFA program in Photography, Video and Related Media. UK web developer Kelvin Luck programmed the exhibition software to search, filter and explore Flickr.com.
Gallery summer hours are: Monday-Thursday, 9:30-5:30, and Friday, 9:30-4:00. The gallery will be closed on Saturdays and Sundays. Summer hours begin on June 20 and continue through Labor Day.
Thanks, BILLY Q...

Castellar de n'Hug
A part of the name of Castellar de n'Hug, already found in the X-XI centuries, the consecration of the cathedral of Urgell, the name of Kastellare. The present name of Castellar Hug is not old. Has not ended to find out if the name comes from the historical Hug Hug Mataplana or Latin name meaning nuce current source. In this case would refer to the sources of Llobregat. During the ninth century this term belonged to the county of Cerdanya; not until the thirteenth century that will become part of Berguedà.
In 1900 Castellar de n'Hug had 570 registered inhabitants; 1920 had increased to 700; surely this increase is due to the installation of the factory Asland. The families of Castellar de n'Hug in the early twentieth century, how people lived in the mountains, had survived the activities that can be developed in this territory: livestock activities and not according to the law, known as "contraband." The origins of Castellar de n'Hug are old and one has placed any where in 1659 after the Treaty of the Pyrenees between the monarchy and Farnaces will lose the territories of Roussillon, Conflent and Capcir Vallespir and a part of the Cerdanya This cause, that once the border was much closer to Castellar de n'Hug and other pre-Pyrenean villages. This new strategic position has important implications both in peacetime and especially in time of war and postwar. Smuggling with the hardness of the border in wartime, especially in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, when CONVERTE refuge and not refugees escaped violence as big as a war.
Castellar de n'Hug in the last thirty years, has become a tourist town. In 1984, while still in the Berguedà tourism was not spoken nor trust their potential, the people who had preserved traditional architecture, with great respect to the use of local materials (stone, wood tiles), was described by the Ministry of Tourism one of the most beautiful villages of Spain. Undoubtedly a deserved recognition of the efforts made by the people of Castellar Hug and his council. Today, the heritage values of streets, squares and houses Castellar and its neighborhoods, has joined some other recognized values, gained others.

Castellar de n'Hug
Una parte del topónimo de Castellar de n'Hug, lo encontramos ya en los siglos X-XI, en el acta de consagración de la catedral de Urgell, con el nombre de Kastellare. El topónimo actual Castellar de n'Hug no es antiguo. No se ha acabado de averiguar si el nombre de Hugo proviene del personaje histórico Hugo de Mataplana o del nombre latino nuce que significa corriente, fuente. En este caso haría referencia a las fuentes del Llobregat. Durante el siglo IX este término pertenecía al condado de Cerdanya; no es hasta el siglo XIII que pasará a formar parte del Berguedà.
En 1900 Castellar de n'Hug contaba con 570 habitantes censados; en 1920 había aumentado a 700; seguramente este aumento se debe a la instalación de la Fábrica Asland. Las familias de Castellar de n'Hug a comienzos del siglo XX, vivían como la gente de alta montaña, tenían que sobrevivir de las actividades que se pueden desarrollar en este territorio: ganadería, y actividades no de acuerdo a la ley, conocidas como el "contrabando". Los orígenes de Castellar de n'Hug, son antiguos y se les debe situarse hacia el 1659 cuando después del Tratado de los Pirineos entre Farnaces y la Monarquía hispánica, esta pierde los territorios de Rosselló, Conflent, Capcir y Vallespir y una parte de la Cerdaña, Este hecho provocó que de golpe, la frontera fuera mucho más cerca de Castellar de n'Hug y del resto de pueblos prepirenaicos. Esta posición estratégica nueva tiene importantes implicaciones tanto en tiempo de paz, como especialmente, en tiempos de guerra y de posguerra. El contrabando con la dureza de la frontera en tiempos de guerra, especialmente en los siglos XIX y XX, cuando se convier en refugio y paso de refugiados y fugitivos de una violencia tan grande como la guerra.
Castellar de n'Hug en los últimos treinta años, se ha convertido en un municipio turístico. En el año 1984 cuando todavía en la comarca del Berguedà no se hablaba de turismo ni se confiaba en sus potencialidades, el pueblo, que había conservado la arquitectura popular, con un gran respeto por el uso de los materiales autóctonos (piedra, madera , tejas), fue calificado por el Ministerio de Turismo uno de los pueblos más bellos de España. Sin duda un reconocimiento merecido al esfuerzo hecho por la gente de Castellar de n'Hug y su Ayuntamiento. Hoy, los valores patrimoniales de las calles, plazas y casas de Castellar y de sus barrios, se ha añadido otros valores reconocidos unos, ganados otros.

Here are all of my current dolls in order of joined/rejoined.
Talulah should technically be second, but I was going to sell her. Thanks to my partner and a friend she rejoined my collection on a new body.
I also updated some of the pictures on here from my dolls. And the last doll is a Fairyland LTF DES in tan. I'm currently paying her off slowly on a layaway. She's going to be Jazz's daughter Bonnie.
It's kind of fun, everyone has a face up by me. Bonnie doesn't yet, but she's not here yet so I can't work on her.
City with no Labour
In the current digital era, as members of the ‘society of labourers’ we are witnessing the abolition of standard scheduling of everyday activities and 9-5 jobs, encouraged by the multi-tasking options provided by mobile devices and flexible working.
What if therefore, with the ongoing automation of jobs, we were able to mechanise all the activities assumed as labour? How would a City with no Labour look like and function? The project speculates on the unimaginable post-labour society, where city centres will no longer be designed strictly around work and consumption. Commodities (typical products of labour), will not be merchandised on the high streets, deconstructing the contemporary centres of labour.
Note that most of the fenceline is on or borders public land, aka Hunting Area E and the Waialeale Wilderness Preserve.

Took a bit of a staycation this year and went out to Kilmore Resort for a few days (just outside of Swift Current). Had some decent weather and got some reasonable pics - mostly of my son, but a few nice ones that I thought were Flickr worthy.

I am currently scanning a lot of fascinating old photos held by Dysart Trust. Here at some date in the early 1940s a Dysart mother and her children pose inside an Anderson Shelter. These flimsy corrugated iron shelters were issued by the government as a sort of morale booster but would have provided very little protection from any bombs dropped within the immediate vicinity of the shelter?
I thought the AM90 was the best shoe ever. It took two years after the Current was released until I got me some. They are the BOMB! The sliced front sole is amazing, I have never felt a sneaker respond so well to the movements of your foot. The problem with AM90 slipage in wet weather is gone! Grippy'er soles than a super tacky Maxis.
Go Leyva and Anthony Hope you just made the best way better!
As you can see from this, the best is so damn good, I bought 2 pair!

Southwest Expressway and Fruitdale Avenue.
Another old image I came across today from 2006 while looking through my older photos.
This 7-11 apparently had a gas station with it too, at some point (I'm guessing in the 80s) the 7-11 relocated across the street to the K Mart parking lot (one can see the sign in the photo) and this one remained vacant since then.
The 7-11 across the street has remained, even though K Mart closed in 2001 to make way for homes.
Now that 7-11 is slated to move again, up the road to Southwest and Leigh, in the old Shell Gas Station, as the 7-11 (on the K Mart lot) is going to make way for the last phase of the K Mart property redevelopment into homes.
This building above was torn down in 2007 and is now a residential development as well.
We will be moving soon so this is temporary. I really want to get a glass desk and a nicer chair. Maybe with a view?
